Tara ,'Empty Places'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Timelies all!
Took the day off because Mr. S is on spring break and the nanny had appointments for her kids in the morning. I originally asked for today as a telework day, but was told I couldn't do that because another person in the lab asked for telework that day.(Taking annual leave was ok. Don't ask me why.)
Laura, in regard to trying to find a boat your DH can stand up in, there's a BBC show called Escape to the Country - people living in (more or less ) urban areas go looking for a home - usually an older/historic one - in a more rural area. On one show, the husband of the couple is tall (not DH tall, but taller than average) and they were looking for a place in the country where he could reliably stand up and walk without hitting his head. They were having problems with that.
Todd, there are lots of times that Brendon can't stand in parts of people's homes, including the house I lived in when we were first married. He says when you are his height you get used to it. I don't think I would get used to the ceiling brushing against my hair on a regular basis, but I'll take his word for it.
I am thinking of the toilet at the theatre where I worked that was WAY TOO TALL for me. So weird to not touch your feet to the floor while peeing!
Well, I came across this, the Passover Shanty.
My mom fell and had to be taken to the hospital. She's OK, but she has a cracked rib.
Oh no, Hil! Your family is not having a good holiday.
Oh, Hil, how miserable on top of everything.
Oh my goodness, Hil.
I know that she was planning to go to Boston for my aunt's funeral (probably driving up tomorrow, to attend the funeral on Wednesday), but I'm not sure if she can travel like that with a cracked rib.
