To commemorate a past event, you kill and eat an animal. It's a ritual sacrifice, with pie.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

My cards have not all gone out but I am thinking of you all and will try to get there.

I don't really want to look back on this year. There was good as well as bad, but I really just want to put it in a box, put the box in the attic, and be done with it.

Hard same.

Thrive to spite them

I'm sorry Pickles didn't work out but it sounds like she will find a good home. And there are piggies out there that will be a good fit for Prubs and the Zhmayems.

Good luck Amy. Sheryl it must be tough having to give up something that is such a big part of your life. Hopefully though in the future it will be something all of you can do in the future.

Are we going to open one of these threads for this year?

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

That this one never closed kind of suits my sense of being unstuck in time, but I suppose having one for 2022 would be tidier.

Ha! Right?

If it were possible to have a strikethrough on the 21 and put 22 that would work. Since I don't think that is possible, we have to come up with a name for the new thread.

Yeah it’s fun that every year is a separate thread, anyway.
