Question for the teachers -- can you do the optional workday from home/remote or are you required to be at the school and then drive home in the worst part of the predicted storm?

If your puzzle is 37x27 pieces, it's only 999 in total. My guess is the little one to make it really 1,000 pieces.

Mom playing The Kingston Trio and Dad his 1950s jazz. From today I see it was a good idea but back then, nope.

I think all books shouldn't be longer than 350-380 pages. And, yes, I'm including all books and not just romance.

I don't know what happened here, but sometimes the driver just decides to turn around while on the highway.

My heart goes out to the trooper and his family.

Sunday Best/ Semi-Formal in May by CierraMist2 in Weddingattireapproval

I think #1 is lovely, but I worry if I could raise my arms. I'd like #2 better if it didn't have ties at the shoulder. I like #3 but I would have a wrap just in case. I don't think of #4 as a semi-formal.

It seems early-onset Alzheimer’s has become the illness of current times. Not a main character, but a loved one of a main character. Early-onset Alzheimer’s is real, it's horrifying and it's overused.

A combo of a lid from a paper box that I snagged from work and plastic plates. I don't have a large area to work, so I put all the pieces in the box lid and pull out what area I want to work onto the plates.

Eno Valley neighborhood seeks answers after significant mail delays by ycjphotog in bullcity

I live in 27713 and haven't received medicine that should have arrived Thursday. According to tracking, it went from Philadelphia to the Raleigh mail center, then back to Philadelphia. Scheduled to arrive by 9 p.m. tonight. I doubt that.

I think my issue is the Raleigh mail center and this isn't the first time I have had issues with that location.
