Man, go to Mommyish and look at the STFU's author posted today.  A riot! 

 Read it.  Hilarious!

I also love the one about the pet not being a child.  I could have written that one.

Friends arrive tonight! Can't wait! The four of us have not been together since we moved to MN. We have seen each separately in different cities...but tonight...its gonna get loud at our house! Lots of laughter!

Also, tomorrow starts the college showcase. I have to be at the dining hall by 7 am to pick up breakfast for the coaches and then spend all day being hostess. Actually, all weekend but that's ok.

 I read the article.  I would not be against requiring the vaccines to attend public school, but I think requiring it for private schools is too far - that's up to the individual school, not the state, to determine. 

And heck, if you are going to kick them out of public school - they need to be able to go private.

 I was going to try to wait until tomorrow, but one of the things I found was on its last day. 

 

I bought a pink eiffel tower wallet for Baby J

I bought a Hanna Andersson playset

I bought a seatbelt helper to hold the backseat seatbelts in place so Baby J can buckle hers easier herself.

 

It was a Baby J day - don't tell DD10.

Now, flan, you know to buy the cheapest thing first, right? Don't buy multiple things at once. Buy the cheapest item, pay the lower shipping, and then get free shipping the rest of the weekend. I have been known to buy something cheap just to save shipping on an expensive item.

 Yes, I try to do that.

Isn't Zulily the place that doesn't allow returns? I wouldn't shop there because of that policy.

 Yes, but clothes for kids are okay. The toys are great too. I've learned the hard way that their shoes run narrow.

And I've gotten some amazing jewelry!

It was 32 degrees here today. Very cold and windy. And overcast. But no snow, rain, or sleet. So all is well.

First thing this morning, I got a company-wide email announcement (7:00 Eastern time), that ...

the company has agreed to be purchased by a bigger company.

 

So now everyone ... EVERYONE ... has to worry about job security.

Time frame, unless some regulatory agency blocks it, is 6 months.

 That sucks ed. That usually means they want more done with less people for the same pay. In less time.

Thanks, I've been through it before too. But I was young enough to get another job. 

Now I'm 68. Who wants to hire someone old enough for Social Security?

My dad is the same age as you, Ed and he retired and is now making more money than ever! People with a lot of free time and a lifetime of expertise are in high demand as contracted advisors!

Not really. Financially I'd be okay, but working and getting PAID for the next 2 or 3 years would make a difference. 

I'd really rather not have to sell the house and move into a cardboard box under a bridge somewhere.

And I know I'd miss being out and about, talking with my customers.

Guess who as Anthem for insurance coverage? Yep, that would be me. So my information has been heavily compromised in the past few months. This is ridiculous...
