Seventeen years ago I bought 800 thread count sheets. OH MY, they lasted almost forever! Today, we use the pillow cases to clean the blades on the ceiling fans, the bottom sheet covers the grill, and the top sheet covers the glider so the cushion on it doesn’t get dirty!
There were good days, many of them. It’s when one of the adults in the marriage outgrows the other, or they end up with nothing in common any more, OR one meets someone else, or one stops caring.
My step mother believed that we had to wear ‘tights’ in the winter, OR we’d catch a cold! Her philosophy was this: IF your butt and legs get cold, you’ll end up with a cold!! And God forbid you go out with wet hair!!!!
My father taught me that when I was a teen. A firm handshake, being a female, sends the message that you are confident and have a good character. I so hate men that give a wimpy handshake to a woman!
As my father’s friends died all around him, he started making friends with people that were younger…in their 60’s and 70’s, and especially in their 80’s. He lived to 102.
Not if you’re sleeping in your birthday suit!
