Wonder if @Eric1955 still collects vintage stuff? I was invited to this and it screams him. Wonder if it is like the Auto show and visits most states?

That sounds really neat! I do, indeed, still collect vintage stuff. I always say I was born in the wrong time.

I was watching the Weather Channel this afternoon and he was broadcasting in front of a "CVS drug store" sign. We have a Walgreen's Pharmacy here.

Hmmm...
Our local ones have signs that state CVS Pharmacy or Walgreens...no "Drug Store" mentioned at all...

Here is what our new sofa and love seat will look like. The brownish color in the second picture will be the base and the pattern will be what the throw pillows will be.

The Americans' gloves looked like my Dad's old work gloves (except Dad didn't have any fringe on his). They made me laugh a little.

My guys all have works gloves that look like that

DD has to teach a refresher class to lifeguards this morning. It lightly snowed and was snowing as she left. She went to make a left out of the parking lot but her car kept sliding...so she turned right.

Sympathy like. I hope both of you stayed safe

I really don't have too many complaints with him. He goes in his room and locks himself in and gets grouchy, and my parents will get annoyed, and I'm like, "Whelp, hasn't been that long since I was that way myself." He drives my parents more crazy than he drives me. I look at other teens and think about how much worse it could be.

That, and I think he reserves his most teen angsty moments for them. Last Saturday, he was driving my mother bonkers, so on Sunday, I took him for the entire day. He was great for meThen on Monday, he resumed driving my parents crazy.

In the grand scheme of things that teenage boys can do wrong my rank near the bottom, but still every once in a while.

I cannot get my feet warm today. Time to get out the heating pad. Spring cannot get here soon enough!

Sympathy like and Amen

Snow they say shall start again at Midnight. I WAS able to actually leave for a while this afternoon. Note, Macy's is having their huge clearance sale. I bought a nice Fleece Fall type jacket, $89.00 for $14.82. My DD got a different style also $14.82 So many dirt cheap prices for quality. Shop till ya drop!

Sympathy like for the weather!!!!!!!!!!!!! Congrats on the shopping score but you're killing me. Now I'm wondering why I thought a full year no clothes shopping challenge would be a good idea

The hazards of Florida. I hope you have some lotion or aloe to put on, and I hope it isn't too bad of a burn.

^^^^^ This and I hope you're pain free today
