All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Details are in Shir’s profile.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

For both our sakes, I'm glad to live downstairs from my mother. Also, she is the one who is going to give me COVID, not the other way around! She's always seeing friends.

"And that's why God Almighty gave us fire insurance and the public defender".

There’s a set time for DX’s remembrance? Did I miss a memo?

Good point. I'll send an email with a reminder to anyone who wanted to participate today.

Volans, kitty~ma.

Edited: Umm, do we know who (Jen) is who isn't JenP?

Also, I don't think I signed up as such, but I hope to participate.

"And that's why God Almighty gave us fire insurance and the public defender".

Thanks, Laura. I'll send to you and Cass the details.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

Had a bit of a scare with my folks. My dad called this morning to say my mom had been feeling poorly so he took her to the hospital. (She was being treated for an UTI.) He just called back an hour ago to say she was dehydrated, had been treated and was going to go home once she got dressed. Whew!

Good to hear she was taken care of quickly, Sheryl. It is so easy to get dehydrated.

dehydration is such an issue with the elderly! It was so hard to get my dad to drink enough; it turns out he had some problem with his throat that made him feel he was going to choke if he drank much, so he just stopped drinking as much water. (Also of course not wanting to get up and pee four times/night.)

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

It was so fun seeing everybody's face again! And hearing voices.

Thank you, Shir!
