Ditto, but I'm not as young as you are.

Helpful hint on gifts, buystoys. A friend drinks a lot of wine, put the corks in decorative containers and give them as gifts. The one I heard about was not well received.

That's been me for over a week, which you might guess is not a good match for front desk work.

Busy, because of the physical state of my sinuses, I always start doing bad with temp or humidity changes. Because of all that was going on, I missed that we had switched to that time that humidity is generally below 40%.
I really need to make my calendar with warnings and to look at for all season changes. Tomorrow is the first official day of Summer. I should have warned myself from Memorial Day on to look for the dangerous to my health humidity change. (Sinuses not draining usually leads to lack of sleep for me.)
Any ideas why you aren't sleeping well?

OK brother, So your choice for your spoiled brat daughter is to allow her to to to NYU for law school or a private in-state school for law school, complete with a gazillion more dollars in loans, and with one more kid still at home to go to college? HAVE YOU LOST YOUR EFFING MIND
This brainless bozette needs to drop her college plans and get a job, or jobs, save her own damned money and pay her own freaking way, rather than freeload you to death. She's a wizard at making you and that mess you married feel like you screwed up her life and she deserves to be treated like a princess. Uh, no. No one in life deserves anything. Your brother and I worked for what we got. Both of us went to school and worked. At the same time. Shocking, I know. Sure, Mom and Dad helped and I had a loan, but I paid it back.
Your eldest daughter (who somehow is smarter than the other five of you combined, PLUS your moronic first wife) also worked, went to community college first, then to a state school, then worked full time, paid off her bachelors, got married, then got a masters and paid it off with Teacher Loan Forgiveness of $17,500 plus a tax refund. She and her spouse are 28 and have only a mortgage payment to make every month. She is everything you and your dollar-draining family aren't.
I already warned little brother that you might do something stupid, like forge either of our names on a loan. My credit is frozen so hopefully I am a little bit safe. DH is not as good about checking things as he should be when it comes to his money, etc. but I will be watching.
Real princesses wear gloves. Just sayin'

Did you mean this post for the 'An Anonymous Note' thread or are you going to turn it into a meme?

Yep, although its really August for me and hard to forget. Ragweed season is a killer out here. I don't know if its age or the mix of things where I live compared to where I went to college. But yes there is a noticeable switch over when it becomes Fall.

When my home was in pre-foreclosure process my realtor used to tell me frequently about people losing their homes for good reasons. It was almost always parents who sent kid(s) to college and later needed to default on their mortage.

My thought is we all pick our hills, and I am more than willing now, to let most of my loved ones do so. The fallout is on them. Your life your decisions, my life - my decisions.

I guess I was so mad when I wrote it I forgot where I was. [img alt=" " class="smile" src="//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/embarrassed.png"] Don’t feel like the Lone Ranger! I just got lucky and caught my blunder and deleted it! Besides it was comic relief regardless

I actually don't like that meme. That's probably by a conservative to show why feminism is wrong.
