Hoover was a Good Man

100 years ago today. The $3 million raised that night is equivalent to roughly $40 million in 2020. Click on the photo for the whole story.

Little Sally Walker

 So I guess Iggy Azalea released a song called “little sally walker” last year...I was like, hmmm that’s a game we used to play as kids....

Yep, it’s the same song. Lol.

You guys remember playing this right?

We so damn old our old games are being made into new rap songs. How tf that happen?! - Lisa

WW84

After our traditional Christmas pancake breakfast (this year held at 4pm lol) I kept a long held promise to LuLu and took her to see WW84 on its opening day.  It was not awful,  but imo its script needed a lot of work.  Still,  it was fun to venture to a theater for only the second time since Covid, and a joy to accompany Lulu.

Merry Christmas

Great Job Son!

Yesterday, completely on his own initiative, Smiley  prepared a wonderful Christmas Eve dinner of ham, potatoes, stuffing, mac n cheese, roasted mozzarella brussel sprouts, asparagus, biscuits, and two, count 'em, TWO homemade apple pies.

 

Smiley is fifteen.  

At 15 I couldn't boil water.

 She’s a beauty Caitlin! You did good mama

 200+ murders a year but we got bubble machines and bands, lol. Still love my city! - Lisa

What a Year. What a Miserable Year

Ugh

 Yep, it’s that time of the season, 10 days prior when things start to get real on what’s still left to fund.

Most of my texts this morning sound something like: “we aren’t exchanging, don’t surprise me”, “you know that thing we discussed in Nov, yeah that ain’t happening”

Ahhhhh, the pressures, lol...very much why this is my least favorite holiday.

It’s very easy to forget the reason for the season. I need to find an Angel tree from the Salvation Army or church...does anyone have something they are doing they need help with?

I need to get my mind right...

Treat Time

 It may have been treat time lol - Lisa

Someone doesn’t like that treat time is over lol, awww

United Colors of Benetton

 Apparently it relaunched in 2017, wonder if it would smell the same to me. I literally smelled like this for two straight years. Lol

- Lisa

Nope. Not yet, anyway.

That’s right... and that’s exactly where I’m at and that’s my choice (for now) too. The vaccine push before its even available is kinda gross honestly, especially the forms it’s taking: (addict shaming, classism, etc).

Newest: I’m not a patriot and I obviously voted for Trump, lol

- Lisa

 

YaY!!! Congrats!

Congratulations to my niece Caitlin, who gave birth today to a healthy baby girl!

Not Going Back

A quick trip in/out of a New Berlin restaurant made me love Milwaukee even more! It was overcrowded, no tables were taped off (for social distancing), there were whole crowds at the door with no mask - just reckless! - Lisa

Makk N Cheese

 If you haven’t tried makk n cheese on kk, you should. Yum. Carnitas foo extra crispy strips. Mmmmmmm. - Lisa
