We're seeing ME and Indigo Girls on Saturday too! Like you, I never really got into ME but I'm going with an open mind and I'm sure she'll be great. I've seen IG more times than I can count and the fall before Laura got sick we had THE BEST time at their concert at the Wilbur. I'm taking a cue from you and listening before I go. LOVED Rules of Civility but for me it's 1) Gentleman, 2) Civility and 3) Lincoln - loved all three though. I'm listening to a book right now that I read 30 years ago and loved but I couldn't remember the story -- Dinner at the Homesick Restaurant by Anne Tyler - really enjoying the audio and now I'm remembering why I loved it so much all those years ago. Almost done with Remarkably Bright Creatures which I have a feeling I'll be recommending to you soon. I have serious Olympic withdrawal but I'm going back and watching stuff I missed which has been fun. I really enjoyed the women's triathlon and I'll be going back to watch the women's marathon and some rock climbing. XO
The Fischer Price toys - each one of them - hold so many fabulous memories of us playing with them....don't let them go. Well I suppose if you are Swedish death cleaning* then....
*We went to a "yard sale" on Sat in NH. It definitely was death cleaning. It made me very sad. "make an offer for anything you see" I mean - housedresses in the closet? Best to get it over with now.
We had a rule that if two people said it was trash and the third person disagreed, they had to take whatever the item was immediately. And that's how it came to pass that the ceramic Christmas tree (we think) that I made in 1976 ended up in the trashcan.

A treasure.
It was ghastly
