Y'all see the man hanging out of the spaceship with the really big gun? Now I'm not saying you weren't easy to find. It was kinda out of our way, and he didn't want to come in the first place. Man's lookin' to kill some folk. So really it's his will y'all should worry about thwarting.

Compassionately intolerant

if it doesn't fit, has stains, or if you are not going to wear or fix it/them, get rid of it/them!

I totally agree, and yet, the feeling of WIN, when I pull something out of the mending basket and bring it back to life is sweet indeed.

I love being efficient use of resources girl...but I love clean closets more so, yeah, Sort, Assess, Dispense actually makes me happy...uh...not sad...see? See what I did there?

ahem ::wanders off to Clean All Things!::

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

People, if it doesn't fit, has stains, or if you are not going to wear or fix it/them, get rid of it/them!

Actually, what I REALLY want is to organize a stitch'n'bitch -- I have a bunch of stuff that's easily mendable and partly done projects that would be time-consuming but ridiculously not difficult, but it's just so frickin' hard to get a chunk of uninterrupted time to plow through it all. I don't want to throw it out, I just want time!

I just want time!

Perhaps in the hazy shade of winter?

JZ, I totally agree. I have a pile of hemming, resewing buttons, reattaching snaps etc that needs to be finished and no time.

If ever I could wish for a superpower, I'd wish for the ability to stop time for everyone but me. So, I could stop time and take a nap while everyone else was frozen. Or read a book. Or take an uninterrupted shower. Or move Antonin Scalia into scandalous situations where he would be forced off the Supreme Court. Or, you know, more time to finish ANYTHING.

So you bought multiples of shoe styles that fit and are comfortable ... this is a problem because?

Yeah, I see no problem with that.

There is a reason I always am doing some sort of sewing while watching TV or movies. It's the only way I can get the stuff done!

Now tagless for your comfort.

We did drive down 2 along the lake front. Gorgeous, sunny day. It was actually a nice drive. Then we got into Shawano County in Wisconsin and got slowed down.

We've decided that the drive up along the UP is a better way to get to Northern Michigan than taking the car ferry across the lake. The ferry was ok, once. But for the cost, it doesn't save a lot of money or stress.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Cash - next summer we should plan a Miraclemere/Cashborn UP trip. The kids are at an age that I think they would LOVE Fayette State Park or the Porcupine Mountains.
