Our doormat says "Hope you like dog hair"

JZ got the Good Place doormat: "Welcome! Everything is Fine."

And, you know, everything has NOT been fine so I find myself in disagreement with the doormat every time I come home, but don't want to get rid of it since Jacqueline got it.

Also, Matilda spilled a big latte all over it and it has a big stain.

So that's the story of our doormat.

Everything is Fine was always a lie, though. Having a big latte stain kinda makes it better.

brenda's doormat is a good one

Love Brenda's doormat and, thanks to flea, have been looking at Water Hog doormats. Our doormat was, I dunno, probably $20? And it's all faded and stained now after less than a year. Which, I didn't super care until flea came in with the Water Hog...

I'm every advertiser's dream. Except, I don't always but, so maybe not.

Dinner with a friend tonight, and I can't wait. You, know, the friend you get to mutually share all the good, bad, and ugly from the last month since your last dinner? Yeah, that one. And it has been A WEEK chez Jen.

You all, how can it be not even two weeks until Christmas? One of you fell down on the job, is all I'm saying.

Just got a call from our insurance broker. State Farm is no longer going to insure our house, so...I have to get a new insurer by March. Fun.

WTF? I knew they weren't issuing new policies but I didn't realize they were dropping people.

Oddly enough, I was just on the phone with my credit union this morning since my Travelers non-owner auto insurance is going up from ~$190 for six months to $225. I mean, $30/month was already ridiculous for basic liability insurance. If my credit card doesn't come up with a decent rate, I think I'm much better off paying the daily rate to the car rental place.

insurance is such a racket. bro hates when I say that(He's done it) but--

Technically since my building has three units it counts as an apartment complex (as far as they are concerned). And they are dropping all of those.

The Garden Apartment having its own address is nothing but a hassle! I wonder if I can get it...decomissioned or something.

I'm not decorating my house this year, so I'm decorating myself. Today I am wearing "velvet" green leggings with gold and green snowflakes with a green tunic sweater and a cheap but fun necklace of baby Christmas lights that I can switch on. No one but DH will see. But that's OK!

What's happening with everyone this weekend?

What's happening with everyone this weekend?

Today: various errands, along with finishing decorating the tree and hanging the giant wreath on the porch.

Tomorrow: finishing whatever errands didn't get done today, plus my neighborhood's Krampus walk!
