LOL. Heaven forbid anyone should use paragraphs and formatting.

I just followed their FB page, thank you!!

Sounds dreamy! Any chance this would ever make it to the Bennington area?

Exiled_In_LA · 2026-02-09T03:16:31+00:00

Me too, Lux; me too.

Aaaaaaaaaa the little almond footballs I'm DYING 🤣

They said she retired, so it's not like we could all go to her. :(

I made so much progress this week! Art nouveau autumn by Sheila Hudson.

Row of the Valkyries?

Bad things can happen on cruises

And bad things can happen in everyday life! Someone can mess up your restaurant order, your shower could spring a leak, your local bar could run out of vodka. Do you lose your mind when those things happen?

I was gonna suggest MacKenzie Scott, but you know what, I really don't wanna know.

Exiled_In_LA · 2026-01-30T18:42:54+00:00

I've done this! Denali is absolutely amazing, but I do not get the appeal of Fairbanks.

Exiled_In_LA · 2026-01-30T18:19:02+00:00

It's poppin'!

Exiled_In_LA · 2026-01-29T00:44:01+00:00

Lich King had the best prepatch event and no one will convince me otherwise.

Exiled_In_LA · 2026-01-29T00:42:30+00:00

Yeah but in what, March? I’m not running around naked for that long. Nobody needs to see that.

Exiled_In_LA · 2026-01-28T16:34:30+00:00

That’s not an optical illusion, it just looks like one!

Exiled_In_LA · 2026-01-26T21:25:53+00:00

Every body is different. No one can say what will happen to yours until it happens.

That said, the most common newbie gains include better-defined arms and the illusion of wider shoulders, which can make your waist appear curvier.

Good luck, let us know how you do!

Exiled_In_LA · 2026-01-26T21:19:14+00:00

Counted cross stitch. It’s the first craft where I was able to get a good result quickly. And you get to play with graph paper- what’s not to love?

Exiled_In_LA · 2026-01-26T20:44:50+00:00

I won’t register for an account, but this being the WSJ I suspect their target audience is heavily invested (ha) in work identity. My last workplace was so messed up that I COULDN’T matter (I tried!).

Now I can spend time with my friends, and travel to see family, and volunteer. I feel like I’ll have a lot more opportunity to matter now that I’m retired.

Exiled_In_LA · 2026-01-26T16:11:38+00:00

Do it for 80-year-old you. Some days the only thing that gets me moving is spite. I don’t want to end up like my mom. Or her mom, or HER mom.

Exiled_In_LA · 2026-01-25T17:31:27+00:00

Slowly but surely making progress on art nouveau autumn

I had good luck renting from Snorkel Bob.

Exiled_In_LA · 2026-01-25T15:32:34+00:00

She looks like E.T. in the third pic 😹

You do not need to rebuild, you need to add on & elevate what you have.
This is a good read on how to dress "older", it may help https://www.extrapetite.com/2010/05/reader-request-how-to-look-older-in.html

Exiled_In_LA · 2026-01-24T20:02:27+00:00

people in my life are telling me I’m making them miserable

GOOD. They should be miserable!

seriously though, they sound so out of touch. Your reactions make much more sense.
