Sorry - those are such predatory loans. I went to College in Canada & didn’t qualify for student aid, so I worked weekends & talk about exhausting. I got so run down & got recurring tonsillitis, and had to have them removed right before exams. So, we made sure our kid didn’t have student loans.

Small towns have their own charm.

It’s a form of financial control. I have friends in their 50’s who still have student debt.

When I was in high school, I cashiered at a local grocery store & one of my fave things to go was to carry out groceries to cars (small town) - they would bring us baked goods & little presents at Christmas. 🩵

Or, that we have to take out massive loans to get an education.

Bee’s plan will definitely involve this racoon.

Let’s plan a heist to get it back!

You can get a lot of good imported beer here - but you pay for it. $ This brewery was just up the road from us & when you open it, it makes this “plop” sound - the Pilsner was my favorite. www.flens.de/en/

We brought cases of our favorite beer back with us from Europe in our home goods shipment. Not allowed, but they all made it intact!

My In-Laws incorporated their Maine cabin into their retirement home & connected the two with a breezeway. It was absolutely perfect on the holidays with that bonus kitchen.

He’s having quite a few health issues & his doctors don’t have a lot of answers because they didn’t really have a plan for aging with his complex medical conditions because they didn’t expect him to reach 50.

It’s a meme already - 😂

Safe travels!

There were often White Claws down there from when the kids visit, but they’ve been on a health kick & haven’t been drinking. Beer fridge is now the seed fridge. Middle-age priorities. 😂

Can’t wait to show this entire thread to my husband when he wakes up.

He’s already doing a ton of pull-ups every day because he never wants to look like Hegseth trying to do one - which is sort of hilarious motivation.

What you just said!! 100%

The one time of the year that I’m happy that we have a shop fridge -which tbh is usually my husband’s seed storage for his garden. 😂
November 25, 2025 at 2:05 PM
Great news!! 🫂

He was born with spina bifada, so his entire body is affected - and most shopping carts are too tall for him to reach up & maneuver with his arms. Sometimes, I think what a great life lesson it was for us kids to go to school with him from kindergarten through graduation.

Do you know where this magic fork is now?
