I thought I'd found great green ones at Costco, but they squeezed my head, and the worker verified that they weren't wide enough for my head. I'm getting my yearly eye check up next week, so hopefully Costco will have new ones when I take the prescription there.

I love that green, especially on you! And your glasses. I keep trying to find nice green ones,but I have a huge head and only a few styles fit me. Also, I love your curls.

I think it happens most among women who are inherently nurturerers.
My sister married two abusive men, the second one twice. Yet, my father was the kindest, gentlest man you could imagine.
My niece married one abuser, then has lived with another one for 16 years, despite a kind father.

What! Is overtime legal in your state, and if so, does his company pay overtime pay? Otherwise, no way! Especially when one is on their feet, it's too much!

That's excellent! I'm so happy for him and your family.
I'm due to have some heart surgery later this month, so hearing success stories gives me a real boost.

My husband always has our house at 71° in the summer and I freeze. I'm sitting here in a big oversized cardigan.

I haven't used an umbrella once, I think, in the 15 years I've been in Washington. When my son and I were in Eastern Europe on a tour a decade ago, it started raining, and everyone hid under an overhang. He and I just pulled up our hoods and stood waiting, confused about what the problem was.

Still love your face and your great glasses.

I watched the entire series, and thought it was quite well done. Good performances, and so intense and nuanced. Shows so extremely not only how people can fall into be close and making excuses for evil people, but how there can still be buried love even once their crimes are exposed.

Have you seen it before? I saw it when it first came through, and have wished I could justify the money to see it again just now, because I loved it. Yes, it's often profane, but ultimately I felt like it was uplifting.

I was lucky enough to be there recipient of Sally's "Happy Mail" once, and it was the most wonderful boost for me. Because I'm terrible at followthrough, I never sent a return letter. I even bought some stickers and that decorative tape she used on her mail to send to her, but never did.

During one session I didn't attend, when she was feeling sleepy, she texted me. I told her I had "devil drops" in my purse (coffee concentrate water enhancer), so I snuck in, handed them to her, and slipped out. We joked about "devil drops" for ages.

Sally and I met irl a decade or so ago, at Sunstone. We'd communicated some in groups for awhile previously, and arranged to sit together through a couple of sessions.

Oh, Ana, I'm so sorry! I know how dear she was to you. I only reconnected with her, on here, and month or two ago. When she stepped away from FB I let her drift away. It was unintentional, but wrong.

Do you have regular Prime? Because you get it automatically if you have a Prime membership.

When we lived inside Yellowstone we had a dog, and I was always so worried whenever I took him out to pee. Every now and then he'd run off to herd some elk. He always came back, but we could have gotten in SO much trouble! He definitely was NOT allowed to harass the native wildlife!

What a beautiful cat. Losing her must be so hard. I'm sorry for their, and your, loss.

I have trouble with the ones where they expect you to be there 15 minutes early. My main Healthcare company does that in all its offices, even if you're an existing patient and checked in online. I've argued with them before, begging them to just write the time when I'm expected.

Pretty good. The old body's falling apart more all the time, but I'm here. Mostly hiding away in my little house on a hill surrounded by woods.
How are you?

Oops! Guess I should tell you I'm Nancy and we used to be friends from the old FB and Sunstone days. I brought you drops of "devil juice" there once.
