Same here for Dallas County. And thanks for sharing the info on Ballotpedia.

Welcome to you and your evil black cats! I have an affinity for black cats, evil or otherwise. There is a thread called Cattitude if you want to check it out!

Yes, I use a top sheet. I usually pull it over my head to drown out noise and light. When I was visiting our headquarters in Miami I would sometimes stay at the Sofitel, which is a French brand. I would always have to go down to the front desk to ask for a top sheet.

I constantly play word games on my phone. Not sure it is working very well because I put the garbage out yesterday thinking it was Sunday rather than Saturday. Hubs said "Why did you already put the garbage out?" I also woke up this morning thinking it was Tuesday rather than Sunday. I blame...

My worst years are tied... in 2000, when I unexpectedly lost my father and in 2020 during Covid, when our company was horribly hit and I unexpectedly lost my job. Ironically, my best year was also in 2020, when I unexpectedly lost my job. That and in 1991, when I met my hubby.

I pick up any coins off the ground. My father was a Depression baby and he always picked up coins off the ground. He sometimes would walk by a phone booth and check to see if there were any coins in there. He had a successful career but the habit never changed. When I see a coin on the...
