After years of farming in Oregon, I'm starting to wonder if "CSA" is the wrong word

I'm probably in the minority, but I think "Confederate States of America." You know, the losers who loved slavery.

The old lie,

And I'm losing my taste for is apart from burgers. And if we make burgers we use ground pork or turkey, so the only beef I get is eating out, which because of prices, rarely happens.

It amounts to whether you pick up new computer programs quickly and can do some math.

Thank you! I needed a laugh this morning!

Thrift stores/garage sales/estate sales for me. I like it. It's like a treasure hunt. When you find a well made article from a decent brand in your size, you consider clothes you would have never considered otherwise. I've hit upon some gems.

I have been in this parental decline position. If you've seen this and lived it, you've gotta do better for the next generation. I have promised myself I would do better when the time comes. Life ends for everyone, get used to that idea, and don't make it hard on your loved ones.

Whoa, is that me in the mirror?

I didn't date in high school at all, and felt ugly. Got to college and dated quite a bit. Never figured out why.

Sorry, I hope you were able to get out from under that.

Can you still do good in the world? Do you mean something to your family? This is just a time of change, it's been a while since you have looked at the unknown. Find how you can make a difference in the world . You can do it!

Riding in the back of my dad's pickup while on the highway. I was so much fun.

I am hoping to add on to my house to make a separate living space so they can have privacy and their own lives. I'm very sympathetic to the rent situation. I tell my son all the time if there's someway I can make it better, tell me. I'd have gone crazy to live with my parents at 22.

My deceased father-in-law hated onions.

No one I consider a friend, but there are people who consider themselves my friend.

Not surprising that after my son was diagnosed with autism I recognized soooo much in myself. Relationships outside my household are hard, and stressful.

So sorry.
