You just make more work for yourself.
I love you with all my heart and soul. Itâs been a wonderful 40 years. But I do have to get this off my chest here ⊠where does the road lead in the future? To visit your mother, of course.

Hon, youâre the best, but you arenât very good at surprises. 
You texted our son on WhatsApp about my Motherâs Day surprise, but forgot that Iâm on the thread. Then you came in and said, âOh, donât look at your phone!â You crack me up. Iâm actually just glad you remembered the day! Now I know to get ready for our two kids who are showing up for hamburgers in a few hours.

Thought Iâd check out Firefly Lane. Watched the first episode, seemed watchable (in my age range which is always interesting) but then I did a quick search here and a Spoiler came up immediately in the thumbnail. Like âSpoiler: [big reveal]â . I wish folks would skip those or put a big space in between so that someone had half a chance to look away. Dang it.
Edit: this was supposed to be in the Binge Watching thread.

I had a wonderful motherâs day at my daughterâs future mother-in-lawâs house. I was so busy that I didnât have a chance to wish all my CC mom friends a happy holiday! Itâs after 1 am here but it must still be Motherâs Day somewhere! 
Sorry I am too tired to look for other suitable emoji!

Sorry, ladies, but if not for the NCAA, you would never have the opportunity to make a fortune just for being nice looking. You might actually have to use your degrees (that I assume were covered by scholarships) to get ⊠heavens! ⊠jobs.

Whew, focus issues post op are most likely due to eye receiving more light due to low heavy eyelids being lifted. Either it will resolve as eye adjusts, or eventually Iâll need a new prescription.
Edit - also apologies to eyelid surgeon for thinking you were hard to reach for three weeks because you were on a cruise when you actually are off doing humanitarian work in Guatemala.

Happy news today from a random local stranger-
I follow my townâs Reddit community and a couple weeks ago saw someone needed a bartending job.
I had literally hours prior seen that one of my favorite local outdoor dining spots advertise they were hiring for âŠa bartender.
So I shared that info with the Reddit poster, she thanked me for the heads up; and she updated today andâŠ.she has been hired for the job!
Yay!

This is about Facebook
I belong to several groups, they are mostly about style and this happens all the time.
Someone will post looking for an item. Or post a certain item that is no longer available and want to find that item or something similar.
Someone will find said item or post a comment about an item that fits what the poster is looking for.
Invariably, someone will complain that itâs too expensive or they would never pay that. Or where can they find that specific item but cheaper?
Drives me crazy! In particular, all the whining and complaining that occurs on Facebook these days.

You rehash the same story from four years ago, leave out the facts again, and call that journalism. Wow!

Past weekend was Mothers Day and my birthday. Spent the weekend out of town with our kids and Hâs entire family as my MIL just passed and her funeral was on my birthday, I was ok with that, it was the best day timing wise for everyone and It is what it is. Obviously low expectations.
ButâŠI had to prompt both H and S to wish me a Happy Mothers Day (FWIW H is usually a great guy but he has never made any effort for me on Mothers DayâŠsigh). Had to also prompt them to wish me a happy birthday. Jeez. They claimed they âfelt badâ but when my only very modest request was for a small grocery store cake, that never happened (even though H went to the store and picked up other stuff).
I was saved from having absolutely NOTHING (not even a card) by D who wrote a lovely card and gave me modest but thoughtful gifts. She also remembered to wish me HMD/HB.
Oh and Hâs entire family also (unprompted) wished me HMD and HB.
H and S , nope.
So. Much. Salt.
