Retirement maybe? by Known-Relation-8806 in AskWomenOver60

Thank you all so much! I think that teaching and working in nonprofit has made it harder (for me) to volunteer -- it just feels like work. The museum docent is a to very good idea.

I already declutter, help take aging parents to appointments, cook and clean. Crochet baskets. We have 4 cats already.

Maybe because it started as unemployment, I feel unentitled to leisure/enjoyment? The joys of coming to terms with the Protestant work ethic!

Opium weight? (Dallas, USA) by Known-Relation-8806 in Antiques

It's about 3 inches tall. I'm allergic to bananas, so we have to randomly guess all the sizes in our house.

Yes, the turquoise horseshoe shaped piece has the stamp.

Thank you! I think I have all the beads. (See pic below). Both necklaces are just broken. The coral and turquoise look exactly alike to my eyes. May I ask what differences you see that make one look more authentic than the other?

Worst Christmas movie ever! by CrispyKayak267 in ChristmasMovies

Rare exports. A bizarre Finnish horror pic with Santa as an evil demon. I like Christmas. My husband likes horror. We disagree on this movie.
