So this week has been pretty chill since I haven’t been doing that much. Staying at my brother’s is always fun because I get to see old friends and pretty much unwind. I will say that it is freezing in his house because this thing has the dang air conditioning on. It took me two days to realize that.

Of course that is not all. The first day my teenage nephew decided he needed to be late for school and then blamed me saying I didn’t wake him up. I went into his room from 7:00 am til 8:00. He just simply refused to listen to me and while he is a good kid he thinks he is older than his years. He doesn’t feel as though he has to listen to anything I say for some reason. It is probably my fault because I tend to go easier on him. Truthfully though if he smarts me off one more time he is going to find out just how tough I can be.

This made me laugh or smile this week.

I really needed a laugh or two at the beginning of this week and these had me doing just that. This one tickled me because my sister in-law said she was going to stick her Air Tag into her bra while in Vegas so we could track where she is in case she gets lost. I mean, it’s not a bad idea.

Admit it, after you watched this next one you laughed as well didn’t you? I’m not sure if she’s not doing this for satire or not but if not I feel a little bad for her. I mean some of the comments just aren’t nice. However, when she first said it I burst out laughing. I thought she was trying to be funny but she looked so serious about it.

A Few Words from Readers

Audrey Stewart on Two Vacations This Year: A change in your routine is sometimes nice. I don’t travel because of the cats, but I am really such a homebody. I thrived during the pandemic.’ Don’t go anywhere!’ I would not like the snow. I’m southern and I panic if it snows.

Mami2jcn on Ways You Can Maintain a Healthy Lifestyle: All of these are important but some are harder to attain than others. Sleep eludes me sometimes, and stress is unavoidable.

Elizabeth on Friday Conversation February 2, 2024: They say Scots and Southern dialects have some roots in common.
