Isn't it wild how that short hair style for women became popular and almost no one of a certain age had long hair? I see that in so many family photos of that time period.

Just had our 1988 Maytag washer repaired for $300. Totally worth it.

I have given up on impatiens and am ready to do the same with geraniums. They are not the plants they once were.

Beloit, WI revitalized its waterfront and chose this way to celebrate it: by bringing to life Georges Seurat's "A Sunday Afternoon on the Island of La Grande Jatte."

Just read this to our kids, who loved it as much as we did. They laughed. It's so quotable.
"You gotta respect the streak."
"IT'S a miracle."
"What does that make us? Lollygaggers!"

It's vital to keep architecture in the limelight so that historic buildings continue to be honored and supported. Your photos and info attract people in the best possible way. Do what you can.

Radishes have always been one of my favorite veggies. Eat them all year long. Plus, they're cheap.

Exactly how I described it to my sister this morning.

Really remarkable picture. Have to wonder when it was photographed prior to yours.

Just stopped at this last fall on our way to see the Chicago Portage National Historic Site. Nice way to spend a fall day.

Where are all of these men who are going to replace women and POC workers?

I never did buy into this rebuild.

How did the Bears almost beat the Commanders?

The webbed lawn chairs we got for a wedding present.

I never knew much about the Milwaukee Brewers, but I'd tune into WTMJ on my way home from work just to listen to Bob Uecker call a game.

If Patrick Kane is saying "Nowadays, who knows how it works, really?" Wow. Because I don't think this team has a clue.

Completely agree. It's like going to the library and having only the new books to choose from.

Almost halfway through the hockey season and we have finally managed to pull in our first Hawks game through the roof antenna. What the heck gives?

Bottom row, far left. "How could they have been so stupid?"

Another 5 game losing streak coming for the Hawks. 26 lousy points for a lousy team.

NFL games are too good today. Had to subscribe. Grrrr.

The biggest difference for me is I stopped baking cookies and don't do any fancy wrapping. Like it's good if there's paper used. I write who it's to with a Sharpie. Enough of that crap.

Gorrrrgeous paper. Almost frameable.

So so appreciate the SS bill that (finally) passed. It affects multiple people I work(ed) with. Game changer! Thank you!

I have some items from grandparents and great grandparents because not much was saved. I love it all because connecting with the past puts them in the present.
