OMG I have so done that; and I had accused everyone of "stealing" my super cool black sunglasses, only to find them in, you guessed it, a jacket unworn for months.

Red cheeks for sure.

Congrats to Ron & Sharon for taking a step forward with something you can control and make yourselves feel somewhat better.

Congrats BMJ for hanging in there.

A congrats to you and your honey jundp.

And Mephys, I know what you are talkin' about. I feel like that every time I revisit places I've lived and think I still want to live there. (There are lots.)

Good work Cattatude. Stick to 'em. Ha! It would be even better if you parked the vehicle and got yourself a fun l'il scooter or got around mostly by bicycle (if possible).

...when the "new month" arrives and you have used up all your cellphone minutes. (Yippee!)

Take that Verizon!
