Coworkers who come in sick. The gift that keeps on giving. How bad did it get with you -- just "sinuses or allergies" as you said, or did it hit harder?

Somehow we have three recycle bins. We can rotate them to keep the cardboard under control.

And our neighbors tried to gift us a regular bin full of leaves so we rolled that sucker back across the alley.

There's times when biking in the rain is grade-A, fun-time, super stuff, but it's not first thing on a chilly November morning. I'm fortunate to have the privilege of choice to drive or bike but to those who have to bike or scooter or walk to get their needs and wants met, I say godspeed.

Colonial Williamsburg right in the historic downtown by the college of William and Mary.

all the info you should need should be available on the Colonial Williamsburg website regarding events schedules

I just posted a reply to another post. I'm looking for things to do with my parents who will be visiting for the holidays from outside of the US. I was thinking of Williamsburg. Where exactly is this place with the carolers? I think they will love that.

I love the houses on Wistar Court! We go to see them every year.

I've never done the tacky lights tour and I figured it would be something cool to show my parents. They are coming from outside of the US and never experienced an American Christmas before. Where does it start? What's the best way to drive around it? Any other places I should take them to get the full experience? Was thinking King's Dominion and/or the drive thru light show at Meadow park, the botanical gardens... What else?

Rockwood Park has a newly remodeled nature center and I bet they could do a birthday party.

Have an unexpected Sunday off (I work weekends), so I’m taking my children to eat pancakes at Lakeside Love Shack, then heading to the Science Museum for our post-Thanksgiving tradition of seeing the model train show & then we’re going to pick out our Christmas tree to decorate tonight!

It sways like a motherfucker during the 5K during Riverrock. Everyone’s footfalls puts into motion and it feels like being back at sea with the deck moving underneath you.

Thank you and my high early brain just searched study but this helped ! Will do better next time 😂

That sounds lovely. I also love the rain. Bought a bunch of beer. Gonna throw the recliner back and watch Spain v Germany in a bit.

K-1 Go Karts might be worth looking in to

I swear, this is the year I will participate in the Cone Parade on January 1st!

Exactly! And now the rent prices are comparable to LA.

AZ can lick my blow-hole.

My man.

I couldn't stand how unintelligent folks were out there. That state has some of the worst education standards and it shows. The other thing I couldn't stand was how superficial it all was. Los Angeles Lite

This year we graduated to having a small table top Christmas tree. I thought I’d be much older when this happened but now realize that I’m pretty much the same age as my grandparents when one set started decorating only the top section of their artificial tree and the other started decorating their potted Norwegian pine.

I love the rain! I’m still in my pajamas, have a cup of coffee, going to curl up in a chair by the window, throw on a handmade blanket, and read a book.

I am coming up on week two of whatever this is (not Covid or flu). Showering multiple times a day and taking mucinex like candy is the only way I can manage this terrible cough. I’ve also been incredibly tired and, once I get the cough under control, sleep up to 10 hours a night plus 2-3 hour daily naps.

This is amazing and something I definitely didn't know about!

Quality. 😂👏

Most people are in their own bubble, news wise.

What I want to do today: finish decorating for Christmas, start planning out some gifts, read. What I’m doing today: going to a wedding.
