Thank you! It'll have either a lobster claw or a spring lever clasp...either would be stainless steel. I wish they made decent copper clasps!

Don't give up. You're not invisible. It's so hard to make it through when you can't make the changes you want. A day at a time.

Thank you! The rational part of my brain knows but the irrational is a bit louder these past few weeks. Definitely a day at a time :o)

You are so right. The folks here have offered so much support even when they don't realize it. My brain is a pretty bad liar and tries to convince me that I don't matter and so on. The folks here remind me that I'm not a horrible nasty person. Self doubt is a pain the the ass.
thanks!

Good morning all. Yesterday might have been my laziest day ever. I'm sure it was because of the covid booster the day before. But one bad day sure beats actual covid.
QOTD: I never had fall traditions, but I do love the cooler weather. I told JB I don't need any apples, but I'd be glad to go apple picking. I can pick all the apples up high for people who can't reach them. Plus, apple cider donuts.
I'm outraged. Outraged. I went to Lowe's on Tuesday, and they have ALL their christmas stuff out. It was October 3, for crying out loud.

I'm struggling to see how we don't need all of that decor. I especially want to big sparkly bow arch to go around the front door, and the North Pole mailbox!

If we got the North Pole mailbox, we'd probably have check washers fishing for mail on our front lawn.
