Toy Story also came out that year. I mean, between those two events how much better could things get?Cause it was the year you were born???
I recall the crazy 80s barely. It was a totally bodacious time and girls I hung out with were all fly. The grunge scene in the 90s was terrible. The music, the fans trying to mimic the lifestyle with unkempt smelly hair and bodies, unshaven and ripped up clothing bordering on disgusting.

Just a thought here, and I don't in anyway think that this is the case with your Mom, but sometimes we get to a point when we no longer have a purpose or anything important to identify with and what appears reckless really is expressing that we no longer care. Life is a lot of pain, loneliness and everything requires so much energy to do, that we just say to hell with it. What happens, happens! We are not suicidal, but we don't really care if we are alive or not. It probably isn't the wisest way to think, but it does enter the old brain box.

Tallulah Gorge was INCREDIBLE!!!
thanks to @epcotisbest for the recommendation!! I have no idea how I’m going to choose my favorite photos. I took way too many today.
Stopped at a restaurant in a different town on the way back. Dined IN.
They took our temperatures before entering, plastic ware, paper plates, sanitizer on the table (we had brought our own anyway, but good to see), also, each table had a brown paper covering, all staff was wearing masks ( I only saw 2 staff members)
The food was DELICIOUS and the restaurant was ADORABLE, only annoying thing was that fries were a la carte in addition to a $13 hamburger, but, T said they were the best sweet potato fries that he’s ever had, I tried 1 ( meaning 4), and I agree. He said the burger was delicious too, qs was my food.
Oh, how I’ve missed eating inside a restaurant.
Here’s a few pics..
Sanitizer at our table..
Mozzarella sticks and fried green tomatoes..
My portobello burger,
T’s hamburger..
Loved the decor!
Unsurprisingly, T didn’t finish his massive hamburger. Lol

I don’t think I’ve posted any hiking pics,. I will when I get home tomorrow night, this place is too beautiful not to!! I just have too many photos to sift thru.
Plan is to do one last hike early morning, go into Helen for an outdoor seating breakfast if any are open at that time.. then head home.
This quick getaway has been such a breath of fresh air. I can’t even put it into words. I don’t want to go back.

The Attic is in Clarkesville, about 10 miles from our house. Pretty tasty place.

Glad you liked Tallulah Gorge. Nice little campground there and lots of hiking. Did you read about Wallenda in the interpretive center then see the remnants of the cable tower where he walked across the gorge?

I recommend Cimmi's Courtyard for breakfast. It is just up the road from the parking lot at Betty's. But, they used to only be open on weekends in the off season. If they are not open, Hofer's across the road if it has reopened. You might just have to get breakfast at Betty's, I don't know. If so, they have pretty good biscuits.

I considered the iphone SE because it was more what I'm used to with the home button, and it had a faster processor, but ultimately I wanted to try moving forward with one of the newer iphones without the bezels. Couldn't stomach the price on the iPhone 11, and above.
So... have you considered getting him wireless headphones so he doesn't have to deal with the cord at all?

Day 2 of back at the firm fun...
The first dozen (again, the other 11 employees return next Monday) of us back are gettin’ used to the “new normal”...masks, distancing, wiping things down, just not touching things if we don’t have to (i.e. I can send to the plotter without ever touching anything but my copy - copies - that it spits out, the main office door is stopped open all day, etc.).
Plenty of work to do and projects still piling up, and productivity is improving. Just a career where personal collaboration is essential to best productivity.
New tech is also being researched for obvious reasons.
If there’s a resurgence, and unfortunately, and sadly, I’m betting there will, we’ll be better prepared to drag all our stuff back home, yet again.
On another bright note, my dear DWifey started a new job at a title company today. Higher pay than her last gig at the engineering firm by a good bit, and she said they were very welcoming and she had a great first day. They are Covid practicing like we are at our firm.
Again, this **** ain’t over by a long shot, but, another pretty good day...!!!

He's got autism. He's very picky about certain things, and his earbuds are one of them. I tried to let him use my wireless ones to try them out. That took all of five seconds. He was like, nope.
I let him play with my Galaxy a while back, and he said he likes my phone better, but I can't get out of him precisely what about it he likes better.
And then there's the price issue. We have to pay out of pocket for our devices because we're on prepaid. My company has a relationship with Samsung, so I get a discount on their products. I got a really good price on my phone, and then I get cases from my company cheap (the case I currently have on it is an OtterBox...I paid $5 for it). But I can't find my phone for what I paid for it at the moment, and the Galaxy series ones are more than we'd be looking to pay. Their more budget-friendly phones (along the lines of the SE) aren't water resistant, which worries me a bit with him. I'd put a good OtterBox case from work on it, but still. But then they're more within what we'd be willing to pay than the iPhone SE.
My other thought has been looking into older model unlocked iPhones. No luck there so far.
