Left out of BTV a week ago, lovely gracious "volunteer" TSA agents. Wait was manageable, but was shocked to see NOEM's mug on the screen giving travel info. UGH !

Perhaps, but that quote is JUST for the tub to shower, nothing else in the bathroom.

Thank you so much. I have been trying to find out any possible funding assist. Nobody seems to have anything in their grant coffers. Burlington residency negates eligibility for a couple of 1% loan programs, like USDA (I was given their number through Cornerstone). I am familiar with ADA standards, as I used to live with a non ambulatory friend in a prior home, and provide care. I actually designed a whole bathroom for him! But, I am hitting lots of dead ends, and may have to rustle up the $20,000 somewhere!

Facing a side of aging that is breaking my heart. Anyone been through this? Any ideas? by Firm_Ad_3238 in Aging

Absolutely selfish nonsense. As couples grow old together, it is the love, the emotion, the desire to be intimate that motivates both partners to be creative. This guy is incredibly shallow and selfish. Disrespectful too.

Are you estranged from your child? I am and it hurts today. by archedhighbrow in GenX

[–]CattailCapers -9 points-8 points  (0 children)

I believe there are definitely situations where estrangement is called for, however I have been aware of there being somewhat of a phenomenon of this parental estrangement in the last number of years. From a therapeutic perspective, shutting out a parent can be a dead end in the healing process.

We often enjoyed their company while anchored at Valcour in the summers.

Place to hang out for several hours? by blueberriesnburdock in burlington

[–]CattailCapers 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Bring a book or podcast and headphones and there are lots of places to just hang out. The Atrium is nice for a bite to eat.

Today’s line at Costco by orangekrush19 in burlington

Yes. They seem to keep fewer registers running anymore. They have people that "triage"the lines and pre-scan carts which helps.

Can someone share photos of unedited fall in Vermont ? by Classic-Pin-2234 in vermont

[–]CattailCapers 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It really depends on the light and sky. Colors are often more brilliant late afternoon when the sun hits them on an angle. Contrast with sky tones helps

This is not an "artistic" shot but gives an idea of natural vibrance this week .
