  1. How about "This is a photo of me ...not being at Disneyland" "this is a photo of me not at Musee De. L'orangerie" Here is a photo of my family from two continents not having breakfast together. I didn't take pics of standing in the rain waiting for taxis lol ~~grumble? GRUMBLE~~
  2. I did a bunch of Duolingo French before our recent trip to France. I already knew a little French but it did help. I was able to tell the Pharmacist that I need eardrops - not for a baby, not for a boy... for a man. Lol
  3. On a recent trip we stayed in an AirBnB with a number of issues. Top 2 issues - listed as 1.5 bathrooms - only 1 bathroom. Washing machine broken during our entire stay necessitated many trips to a laundromat via taxi (traveling with a cloth diapered toddler to a place that was supposed to have laundry) ...we asked for a partial refund, not just to cover cost of laundry and taxis but also the many lost hours of our vacation. You can imagine how mad I was to be in a laundromat when I was supposed to be in Disneyland Paris after traveling 5000 miles. They asked me for photos today. Photos of the bathroom that doesn't exist? Or photos of the washing machine not working? Seriously. I hate these people right now.
  4. Hoka do NOT fit me well. I have a narrow heel and they slip terribly for me. I walk several miles every day so that's a factor. I currently am wearing a lot of Asics. I mostly roate between my Gel-excite trail runners and my gel-contend runners. They fit me better and if I lace for heel-lock they are really good for me. Brooks often work for me too. My Keens sandals fit me fine but their hikers did NOT. It's really hit or miss for me. I have some Merrell and Clark options that fit me well too, but they aren't my daily shoes.
  5. I cannot stand Christian Bale. And I find George Clooney slimy and unwatchable.
  6. Our Dojo did not charge testing fees and they were vocal.about not charging them. So, no we were not charged a fee for my son's black belt test. I do recognize that testing fees are common, but I would be upset if they sprang it on you without communication!
  7. Patchwork has been our recent go to. I'm also fond of Paris:city of lights, Onitama, Quoridor, Mr Jack Pocket, Jaipur., Hive.
  8. I got my parents a bird feeder with a camera (solar powered) that will send pics of visiting birds to their phones.
  9. They are lovely but when I had one I started seeing signs that mice were visiting that one and I didn't want to encourage them to be in the proximity of the house, so I removed it and stuck with feeders further from the house.
  10. Sharknado and Sharknado2 My son calls his George
  11. I do carry mine upstairs occasionally but not daily. But you generally don't turn it off. It finishes and returns to its dock where it needs to charge again. Ours for example runs every day at 10 AM and when it is finished it returns to the dock. With no pets I don't have to empty it daily but I do once or twice a week. It's a set it up and forget about it (other than making sure small items and cords are tidied off the floor) sort of thing. You don't start and stop it each time. I just bought a second one (ours are Shark brand) because I wanted a more programmable one so the older one will permanently move upstairs. I don't have pets but my son does. They were only a little interested in the robot atthe beginning and then ignored it. When a robot vacuum runs into a solid object, it turns away. It won't get itself stuck on the dog.
  12. I have texted my DIL's parents a handful of times when scheduling events where both of us are expected. Also i texted her parents once when she was stung by a bee and was being transported to the ER, because DS asked me to. I exchange Christmas cards with them. Um that's it. My brother has like Thanksgiving dinner with his son's fiancee's parents. I find that totally weird. I am friendly with ILs when we find ourselves at shared events but we're not like friends. I actually had a conversation with my youngest about the thing with my brother and concluded - like if you started dating my best friend's daughter (who he has known like his whole life and who he was horrified at the suggestion that this was possible) then we'd still be best friends and spend time together but that is the only way I can imagine having that kind of relationship. But I'm a sort of antisocial introvert.
  13. It would appear that the answer is no. I fell and royally screwed up my elbow a couple of months ago. I considered the issues I was having to be tied to swelling and thought they'd disappear once the swelling went down. It improved do I kept saying "if it doesn't get better soon" The swelling went down and my elbow is still not right. And I have still not consulted medical advice. ... don't be me.
  14. We go over every purchase and reconcile to our budget every week and charge basically everything to our card for rewards and tracking purposes . If they were a few dollars off I might not catch it. If there were extra charges, we definitely would. I dont keep receipts but we do mostly make purchases online (grocery app, Amazon, fast food apps, etc) so they're usually easy to find.
