    Ladies, what are you doing this evening?

    Firstly - great news on that sonogram!! And well, you're understandably upset. That's a couple of major fumbles by your primary. Have you considered letting her know exactly how she failed you? Yes, doctors are a more "elevated" service, but it's still a service that is provided. She should...

    Ladies, what are you doing this evening?

    Jeez, Sheeplady. :eeek: So sorry they worried you like that. Did you eventually get the sonogram scheduled then? Did your GYN have a different opinion? The worst part of modern medicine to me is how fragmented the care is. I get that they have specialists for every aspect of the body, for...

    Ladies, what are you doing this evening?

    Fingers crossed for you, Lizzie. Ever moving again has become one of the single most unattractive notions in the world to me. Especially now that I've invested such time and effort into our current home. I hope I only leave feet first, basically. I did enough bouncing around and packing boxes in...

    Aww, WifeyRobinson, that is extremely sweet.

    Comments You Get When You Dress Vintage

    I see what you're saying Stray Cat. I've seen that moment when men have stopped trying to have their pants hit their waist and instead tuck their pants under their growing gut instead, without changing the waist size of their pants. Then brag that they're wearing the same size they did back in...

    Yep. I'll be using that too. Heh. Glad to hear you're doing so well, Sheeplady. :D

    Ideas for kitchen?

    Just a quick update on my fridge situation. I got completely and totally sidetracked by the tiling of the kitchen counter and haven't revisited my vintage fridge again (YET). But I did exchange emails with a renovator in Cleveland that agrees with Lizzie that the compressor got knocked loose...

    Comments You Get When You Dress Vintage

    I don't dress super authentically vintage, more vintage "inspired". But I make a distinction between what I wear in public and what I wear to weed the garden. I do have a few older pieces (especially 40s jackets) that I pepper into my wardrobe and prefer wide legged trousers with them. But...

    Looking forward to more of these. :)

    Good grief, Lizzie. You earned your stripes that day. Can't help but be curious at what colorful phrase in particular you got away with. Since the rest of your tale wasn't set in jail. ;)

    Ideas for kitchen?

    I have already found a 60s era daisy flower magnet underneath. lol I do think it sounds more like the compressor itself shaking. But I will keep all that in mind, too. Thanks!

    Ideas for kitchen?

    Thanks for the reply, Lizzie. I took off the front floor panel and this is what I'm seeing (this pic is one I found on a google search, same fridge, different owner): It's seems to be mounted to the back of the unit on metal crossbars. I can't really reach well from the front, but the side...

    Ideas for kitchen?

    The cleaning has been going pretty well - no real grease issues. "Barkeeper's Friend" has been very helpful and took off an amazing amount of aged dirt and surface rust on the corners. BUT. We got it Wednesday afternoon, and waited until just now (Friday aft) to plug 'er in - and it's making a...

    Golden Era Woman of the Week

    I'm guessing the Game 7 disc could be found in the trash bin out back? ;) I wish my own mother was as into the game as I was. She rolled her eyes at me and my brothers quite a bit growing up. Okay, will look for that bio. My local library branch doesn't seem to have it in their system, but...

    Ideas for kitchen?

    Well, ladies, we have adopted one of those craigslist GE space savers fridges!! It's sitting in our kitchen as I type. The move yesterday went well, all the different elements we had to plan for came together, including the drafting of brawny fellows on either end, and no U-Haul was harmed in...

    Golden Era Woman of the Week

    I find that so touching - community bonding over that moment. Even though I had quite a different reaction to Fisk's homerun. lol I have a DVD of those 70s series. I've only watched one inning or so. I need to sit down and soak it in. I'm sure your memories of the details are stronger than...

    any old-school housewives??

    :eusa_doh: Oh, brother. Such a shame that people really say such things and think nothing of it. As if keeping our homes functioning and caring for our children magically gets done all by itself (and I have no kids, and barely keep up with our pets' needs!). Homelife is so devalued generally, I...

    Golden Era Woman of the Week

    I guess I shouldn't be surprised by Cooperstown ignoring women players... *sigh* Having been born in, and grew up near, Cincinnati, I of course was a Reds fan. Being the 70s, it was REALLY easy and thrilling being a Reds fan then. Which I guess puts us in opposition you being a Red Sox...

    A Day in the Life

    I live in a small college town of less than 4,000. We rely on a fair amount of tourism (as this is an usual oasis of liberalism in a sea of mostly...not. So we're a novelty stare-at-the-natives destination place). So there are shops that cater to tourists (gift shops, galleries, higher end...
