Amazing that you already are seeing well enough to drive!

I wondered if that was why you hated writing them. Paperwork to complete files seems like such a waste of good time which could be better used actually helping the kids.

I'm glad DH got some relief from the surgery. It did sound like it would be terribly painful to have screws sticking out.

I had osteopenia last time my bone density was assessed. I'm probably about due to have it checked again.

I had to look up INCEL... that one had not crossed my path before, but now I know. In my world I refer to them as Creepers, but I know exactly the type of mentally tweaked misogynistic male you mean.

I forget that women were/are treated like objects in this country. I was raised in a liberal household, in a liberal area (my dad was getting his PhD at UC Berkeley in the early 70s) and lived in a region that celebrated the work of Dr. King and embraced the Women's Lib movement. Women being treated as objects is outside of my personal experience. I am grateful for the reminder that it does.

Yes! My kids are struggling big time in this political climate. Not just LGBTQ+ issues but all of the government funding cuts. Will affect us too!

Okay, I get it now. LOL.... Some days I'm just a little slow!

In my brain it translates to "avoiding what you don't want puts you on a path for getting what you want".

Agreed. Seems like the social progress of the last 50 years is getting tossed. It is hard to accomplish social change and so easy to tra**** Discouraging. ds

Thanks, Liz! This is with the top up and is a definite rattle under the rear center cupholders like a loose screw. I don't hear it on the smoother roads near town, but definitely on the rougher ones closer to my house.

You are doing fantastic! Feel good about yourself!
