Ooh, that’s an hour and a half or so from me, count me in!
Suhweet! It looks like a mini F2F in CT in our future.
Love this. LOVE THIS.

Our wings are not tired.
In ugh holiday news, Brendon is going to LA for a basketball tournament, on December 26th. This wouldn't be a big deal, and I would have joined him, but my son and his GF arrive in Florida on December 25th. So I will be doing all the holiday stuff with the kids without dad. He will still be in LA for his birthday on the 28th. Sigh. I'm like, okay with it, but would probably have changed the kids' visit schedule if I had known earlier.

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
How can one person be so extravagant and boring at the same time?
Me to the family member who just put an $80 navy blue doormat on their elfster wishlist. The hell you say.

Trying to imagine what could make a doormat be worth $80 and not coming up with anything. Secretly a trap door? Seems like that would be pricier.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
I need cataract surgery on the right eye
Anecdotally my mom had hers done and it was easy peasy with quick results. She was very pleased back in 2017. If I need it, I'm going to get past the scared and see better. I did think I was seeing floaters once but it was just a spider on its web that was MUCH closer than I thought.

Same with my dad. (The surgery, not the spiders. So far as I know, anyway.)

I've had cataract surgery for both eyes and it was the easiest surgery I've ever had. Being awake during surgery was a little weird but that was the only issue.

I’ve bought an $80 doormat. Those nice water hog ones from ll bean in the big sizes, like 4x6? Essential if you get snow. (But I am known to be boring.)

I bought my son this doormat for $14, and he loves it: [link] However, this is inside an apartment building, where they have the serious snow and yuck-capturing ones at the main entrance.
It was pretty cool that I could get the consult for the cataract surgery next week. The sooner the better.

Helpful to know, flea! I have zero doormats so my perspective is, no doubt, extreme.
