were people actually happier back then than they are now?!

Even if they weren't—and I bet they were—at least the promise of happiness felt real, instead of just scrolling through phones and dealing with all this vaccine stuff.

way more carefree, no doubt. 🧐 😁 as for being happier?! hard to say (read: I don't feel like explaining).

Speaking of phones—take Social Dilemma

As for the vaccines, I've already moved past that whole mess, so I'm good. 😁

All things considered, song of the year, and I think I even read somewhere that Oprah actually digs it. 😁 🙂

If we could just get a little snow to start things off, everything else would fall into place. 🙂

suedehead 😛 😁

I’m somewhere drifting between twilight and some sort of celestial kingdom. 🤣

Jamie, my dear Jamie, who else here actually enjoys the snow? 😲

Personally, I’d take eternal summer and dancing...

The crew was here today and they completely demolished the partition wall behind my attic—the one that basically gave up during the last big storm. They’ve put up some drywall to try and keep me from freezing, but honestly, it’s far from over... God help me, I thought I was being optimistic about the snow, but I clearly underestimated how bad this winter is going to get. 🙄

once upon a time .. 😳

just me and my attic

She wasn't always this way, you know... just a total Girl of the Bohemian kind back in the day....

They slapped some drywall up so I don't freeze, but it’s far from over... man, forget the snow, I was kidding when I said that. 🙄

Ugh, they really picked the worst time to tear stuff apart. Don't let the cold get to you. Just crank up whatever music you love and light a candle. 🙂

wiredmason61 said:They’ve timed this demolition perfectly, haven't they? Just when things are getting difficult. Don't let the cold get to you—just crank up whatever music you love most and blast it until the world drowns out. I suppose I should have expected nothing less from this crowd, though I’m rarely surprised by how consistently underwhelming everyone manages to be. It’s truly exhausting.. 🙂

Oh man, thank you! That’s such a killer mix—it’s absolutely perfect for my little girl! 🙏
By the way, they showed up before 8:00 AM today and wrapped everything up. It was actually a last-minute emergency intervention, which isn't something you can usually pull off on such short notice. They were excellent and handled every detail perfectly; I even tipped them for the drinks. Since the lead guy also does handyman work, I've got his number saved for future projects—like when I need to get the walls repainted this spring. 🙂
So, I headed off to work, then spent some time downtown hunting for the coolest pair of shoes on the planet—they were even marked down by 40%, yet somehow they still managed to be outrageously expensive. 🙂Honestly, it’s just painful. I went ahead and picked up two different styles of phone cases, and... yeah, that was my mistake.
I took a stroll through downtown Chicago before finally heading back home. 😁 🤣

It’s honestly quite exhausting to watch how people react to the "Frank Sinatra" track by Fashion Nugget; one would think a single song could actually cause some sort of societal collapse, yet here we are, dealing with all this unnecessary noise. It's just a piece of music, though I suppose my own inability to simply tune out the chaos makes me part of the problem.

👍 sounds like a killer weekend. 🙂
Nothing much happening on my end today. Just a bit of hiking out in the woods before and after work; the rest—well, just work. 😬

That’s more than enough... ))
