"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

And Double-Plus NOT Yassssss for something really, really bad, I assume?

I've not heard it go that far! She's mostly very positive.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

I visited Papa yesterday, and he was in a ton of pain and it was so stressful. But they were able to get him some relief for the pain last night. They're moving him to a rehab facility today with more visiting hours. So it will be easier to go there and see him without having to have someone pick up ltc from school etc.

Our wings are not tired.

The rehab facility will likely be more restful for him too. Good that it will be easier for you to visit him. I'm sure it helps him a lot.

The lender has funded the loan, which means we are now Fully Chonky with finance and the title will transfer this afternoon.

It's been a weird couple years.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

All Chonky is divided in three parts (unlike Gaul, united in your title)!

You've got friends to have good times with. When you need to share the trauma of a badly-written book with someone, that's when you go to family.

I should've bookmarked those refrigerators amyparker shared.

I am here for you. Big Chill "Retro" collection, in several different sizes! You know that I support the Larssons as a design influence. Congratulations to you both.

sj, Jen, askye, I'm sorry that family members are dealing with illness, and hope for good outcomes for all parties involved.

Oh, Allyson, no.

I am so excited for you and yours, Hec! It will be an exciting time, and a whole lot of work. Pace yourself! You don't have to do it all at once.

Post lots of progress pix, Zmayhems! So exciting.

I'm so sorry your Papa was in pain; that's hard, but I 100% know that seeing you was a balm, sj.

Thanks for all the good thoughts for DH. He has a consult tomorrow, and we're hoping to get the colonoscopy soon rather than later.
