HOLY CRAP Nicole Wallace talking about New Book about Transition.

Biden Transition team concern about Military coup.

70 plans of what might happen.



I knew concerns had been talked about. Hell I knew something was going to happen but not Jan 6th that is until I heard the speeches of that day.

Anyone else finding it hard to find sinus/cold/flu medication?

I am sick-Not covid--but in Western PA we have been having a yo-yo in temperatures and people are getting sick. My husband stop at the store to get me some over the counter meds to deal with the congestion, sore throat and headache and the first store completely wiped out second store found the last box of cold and flu.

Anyone else seeing that?

So the House is adjourning until 10 pm Friday night.

Why so late Friday night? well, time to get more popcorn.

So does the house break for dinner then come back?

So was Leslie Jordan overlooked or snub by TCM?

Those of you who watch TCM (Turner Classic Movies) -you know how they do the Tribute to those who passed away during the year? Leslie isn't on the list and he was in movies. Unless I missed it?

I just need to say this.

I am tired of Christmas starting in OCT and all the marketing and then Dec 26th everything is taken down and stops.

Dec 25th is the FIRST day of the 12 days of Christmas not the 12th day.

I remember a time when this time kind of slow down. Holiday parties and get togethers. I remember being at events with family friends who are Jewish, even agnostic it was the idea of common goodwill and just being together.

I am just so tired of the season is no longer a season but a marketing and run up to 1 day then that's it.

Happy Holidays However you choose to or not to celebrate.

Who are the others being recommended for criminal referral beside Trump and Eastman?

I am also disappointed the house members not referral to DOJ for not obeying the subpoenas.

Had my Covid Bivalent shot on Friday.

I can drink water again without getting nauseated or sick!

When I got covid for the first time in Feb it destroyed my taste. Water was the worse of all. It was like drinking contaminated water or rotten eggs. I could only take a couple sips without wanting to throw up.

Water right now has a bad taste to it BUT I am not getting sick and I have had 2 glasses of water today and it just is so nice to know I can drink healthy again.

UPDATE: My Thanksgiving shock

original thread:

My Stepmother-in-law told me that she was getting my husband's childhood home instead of my Husband when his father pass (hopefully 30 years from now. I do not want to wish the man dead in any sense.)

My Husband was able to talk to his Dad and yes, the Stepmother in law is getting the home but in exchange Husband gets more money.

The father always intended his children-now that 2 have passed away- Husband would inherit the house as well and the estate (money and other assets) being divided equally between Husband and Stepmom. Stepmom wore him down and kept demanding the house so while he was updating the will since the last sibling's death, he gave in but in exchange she had to agree on less money.

We don't know how much the house or estate will be nor do we want to know. His Dad did tell husband that what he is leaving him Husband and I can get a nicer home than the family home. He can get a newer home have it paid off and still have the money for retirement and if he budgets wisely, we won't have to worry about finances. We can set it up like he has it set up as a supplement to our income thru our lives.

Husband wanted the house but is okay with this deal. Husband primarily is happy because someday we can get into a better home than what we are living in now. Someday we will more than likely donate our current house to Habitat for Humanity so they can fix it up properly and give it to a family in need.

I am the one who is being the bitch in a sense. Between the Stepmother speaking ill of the dead and her demand for this house I really want nothing to do with her. I think she knows she shouldn't have said anything until Father-in-Law talked to Husband and keeps trying to do things with me. I tell her I am busy. This gloat and demand of my husband's childhood home just turns my stomach. I know I need to be nice and keep the peace, but it is becoming harder and harder. Any suggestions?

Thank you all for the support and dealing with my whining.
