In other news, our holiday season is made more festive by our youngest, age 33, reporting he has SHINGLES! He fortunately went to the doctor Wednesday and got meds early enough that it might not be too awful, but yikes. 😱

When our kids were small, we had a Chevy Caprice "wood paneled" station wagon, aka the Wally Wagon, and I wept for joy when we were able to replace it with a more efficient car. Why would anyone, especially younger people, want to go back to this?
Sean Duffy on slashing fuel economy standards: "This rule will actually allow you to bring back the 1970s station wagon. Maybe a little wood paneling on the side. We can bring back choice to consumers."

I knew one of my high school friends had a panel, but this is my first chance to see it. It's heartbreaking but also comforting to know he's remembered this way. ❤️

We made a spur of the moment decision to attend Good Shepherd Lutheran's Messiah singalong. I could have brought my own score from when I used to actually sing, had I known, lol. We'll see if I can even squeak out a note at all, after lo these many years... 😆

Happy Thanksgiving to all who celebrate! The mister is cooking, as usual, and it's just three of us, but I'm very thankful to be here, drinking coffee and watching what passes for the Macy's parade these days, and for all of you who have been such a support during both good and rough times. ❤️🦃

Shot in the Cincinnati main library, and relatable to those of us "in the business". My brother-in-law's nephew plays Smutts, one of the sit-in group, which made it even more fun personally.

These are the last words of the American president who challenged us to go to the Moon. John F. Kennedy was murdered on November 22, 1963. This is the conclusion of the speech he had planned to deliver that evening.
