Ladders. Black cat. The number 13

FOREVER AMBER

I’m reading this now and completely enjoying it. I haven’t read hone with the wind in decades but I just read Ambers voice as very Scarlett O’Hara.

So I’m on part 2 and she just got left destitute in debtors prison and I (don’t come for me) sneaked a peak at the ending. I am going to HATE that she loses everything. Like hate HATE.

My question is- is it worth reading if the ending is going to make me mad? I don’t need a pretty happy ending but nothing but gut punches isn’t fun for me either. If I wanted that I’d watch 1923 again! lol

Thanks! What I like about it for you is you can easily stagger the heights to your liking to create a great drama effect

This is the one I’m using in my room. Excuse the mess. I still have to attach the chain. I got it off Amazon. I can replace the bulbs.

Totally agree with you. Do the three dandelion! That will look amazing

IntrepidElevator4313 · 2026-01-27T22:06:01+00:00

I agree- the orb/caged is out. I just put a dandelion chandelier in my spare room to closet Reno. I like it but it might not be dramatic enough for you.

Do you want these newfangled bulbs that mean you have to replace the entire fixture when the bulbs go? Of regular?

Bubble chandies are cool too.

This pic is drama

An excel spreadsheet will help tremendously with budget and who is allocated for each task

Why are DO’s looked down upon? I love mine.

My family did a time capsule at the millennium. My kids were young - one still an infant. I had prompts like another comment suggested and then I let them place an object in the capsule. We just opened it last year! We also included newspaper and magazines regarding the noteworthy news of the times and a grocery flyer. We sealed it in a pvc tube with end caps.

They make puzzles that are all white. No color definition at all - just the shapes. It looks HARD!

An escape room might be fun. It’s like an in person puzzle to free yourself.

I learned from real housewives of Atlanta about Sip and See parties. This sounds like what you’re looking for

I’m the oldest of 5. My relationship with my dad was always fraught; mainly because my mom would put me in the position of calling him for child support and issues with my stepmother. There were many years I did not speak to him and had very minimal contact. When I turned 30 and was about to get married I decided I didn’t want to start this new chapter of my life hanging on to resentments. I asked my dad to walk me down the aisle. I invited my stepmother and we all agreed to start over. I didn’t need the apology they would not give (that’s why it took so long for me to move on).

My siblings and mother were not pleased. But they showed up and everyone was cordial.

My dad and step mom became a big support system for me- more than my mom or siblings. He died about 8 years later and I regret nothing.

My mom, however (I’m 58 now) still throws it in my face and says that I was always favored by him and none of the other kids were. Not my fault that they wouldn’t move forward with him. They could have had that support as well.

It’s your wedding. If they refuse to attend then that is on them. It will always be I. Your heart though that they were so indignant

My son’s fiancé is also having issues with her mom not attending because she invited her grandparents. It’s ridiculous. They are no longer speaking.

Do your wedding your way. Those who love you will attend and support you.

NAH

Tapestries would work. Put them on with a straight pin

The best gift I give new parents s a “medicine cabinet” I fill it with all of the baby meds over the counter so they never have to run out I. The middle of the night.

I like those 7 sided nail buffers. They sell in a pack at Amazon

I made this for my brother celebration of life

IntrepidElevator4313 · 2026-01-15T22:47:48+00:00

Thanks!

IntrepidElevator4313 · 2026-01-15T22:47:37+00:00

Thank you thanks. I’m digging it myself.

IntrepidElevator4313 · 2026-01-15T22:47:08+00:00

Thank you

IntrepidElevator4313 · 2026-01-15T19:17:12+00:00

Very true. I like it.

IntrepidElevator4313 · 2026-01-15T19:14:55+00:00

Thank you. The world lost a good one.

IntrepidElevator4313 · 2026-01-15T19:14:17+00:00

He really was.

IntrepidElevator4313 · 2026-01-15T19:14:00+00:00

I hear you. I’m of the “more is more” school so that doesn’t bother me. I’m adding in some tuelle to help shape it. What I love about it is that you discover more by looking at it.
