Pix, you and Drew did an amazing amount in your short visit. Sending all kinds of quick sale ~ma. The excursions sound wonderful. I have to do some planning for much more travel in my life. I think DH is backing off basketball which will make it a lot easier.
Buffy! If I wanted to fight, you could tell by the being dead already.

Ooh I’ve been wanting to go to Hogmanay !!! And, generally, back to spend more time in Edinburgh.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
I'm so glad you have some fun vacations planned, Pix! They sound great!

Always Anti-fascist!
Just because I'm not surprised, Hec, doesn't mean I don't feel for you with all my heart. But I did once have to go to a bank to prove I closed my account from twenty years ago. Because I might still have it, and thereby, not be impaired. Thank God the guy at the bank was an immigrant named Igor.(If you can find an immigrant to help, do that. Great Replacement could literally not happen quickly enough, if I got a vote.)

America leaves nobody behind. (it's hard for me to be nice to people that mean this. If they're not twelve.) Related: My dad will NEVER learn my birthdate, properly.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
How wonderful, Pix! That sounds just about perfect.
I'm desperately eager to get to Scotland so I'll want you to take lots of notes.

Hey, my dad is an immigrant named Igor! Pretty sure he never worked in a bank, though. Always labs.

Good Trouble and Righteous Fights
When I was in grade school in the 70s and there was a tornado warning, we all just filed out into the school hallway and curled up in a fetal position and hoped for the best.
By the time I was in high school in the 80s, they were also having us take a textbook into the hall with us to protect our heads.
Hec, reading your posts about your to-do list, I was hearing the Count from Sesame Street counting off the number of things you'd done.

Thank you for playing along!

Aaaannnddd... after a smooth and imroving day by day recovery, suddenly DH is having bad belly pain, so we are in the ER right now. Send some "just a minor setback vibes," please.
