Stay strong, Cathy!! Keep it in the “out” box! The only thing that I either take a picture or a video of is of projects that my kids do that I think is cute, but just don’t want to keep.

But I really appreciate everyone’s really nice wishes for my trip. Just got back yesterday and it was wonderful. My sweet and generous husband spoiled me with a really nice hotel and fantastic dinners. During the day, we went to several museums (including the Louvre of course), walked a lot and relaxed. Absolutely wonderful… :-)

Sure; the law office I work at has a really good one, and my printer at home also has scanning capability.

One of my shoe-freak friends stores her treasures in plastic shoe boxes stacked in her closet and tapes a picture of what’s inside to the outside. I guess that makes pretty good sense.Good morning to Susan, frightenup, and legaleagle. Billy and Aaron, is everything okay? Greetings to the rest of the Cathy fans checking in later. Welcome home, frightenup. Glad you had a great trip. Hope everyone is enjoying autumn. It is beautiful in Georgia right now.

@SUSAN NEWMANPicture scanners do still exist — couldn’t do without my Epson scanner. It’s wonderful to scan old film pictures and share with the people who shared the memories!

I think I need my memory refreshed here . . . Now WHY was it that Cathy positively needed her mother’s help in cleaning out her closets again??? Because all I’ve seen is her hindering the process . . . not helping in any way, shape or form. She’s just there, taking up space and wasting her daughter’s time with all this nonsense talk. By the end of the day, Cathy won’t have any more accomplished regarding this task than she did when she started!!!!!
Aaron & Billy: Missing you both these days! Hope you’re doing okay!!!!!
lightenup: Glad to hear you had a great time in Paris . . . but we’re really happy to have you back with us here all the same!!!!!!!!!! :-)

Hi Cathyites!! Welcome back frightenup and hendelca. Glad your trip was fun frightenup (I was at the Louvre in August and loved it!!). Yikes Shygirl — that’s horrible!! When you study for a test, you need to be able to take it when you are supposed to. Couldn’t the prof find a test monitor? Re the comic — eyeroll!!!

And people wonder where Cathy gets her “nutjobbiness”. Three words—look no further.
Sheesh—this case is bad, even for her mom.
Ha.
