The Olds was one of the worst cars I’ve ever owned: it had me in the Part-of-the-Month-Club in no time.~
Or if you would have been alone, have you accepted an invitation to spend time with a friend, neighbour or community group?Who invited you? What are they like?

Cheers and Merry Christmas! less

She claimed that all the numerous failures she had in her business (mostly toy ideas that didn't sell well) were integral to her continued success.Similarly, we need only look at the career of President Trump, where failed casinos, a failed airline, a failed university, a failed vodka company, a failed mail-order steak business, a failed charitable foundation, and on and on apparently did not stop him from rising to be The Most Powerful Man in the World.
Yet, that's not how I've seen failure in my life or the lives of most people I know. In those lives...--Failure at a job means a ruined reputation and never being able to work in that field again.--Academic failure means closed-off opportunities for further education and/or dismissal from school--Business failure means lost capital, ruined credit, inventory liquidated for pennies on the dollar, and so forth.--Relationship failure means massive life dis... less

I turned to look but it was goneI cannot put my finger on it nowThe child is grownThe dream is goneAnd I have become comfortably numb

So I made this Mexican layer dip ( no cooking, just slapping stuff together) and everyone loved it the most. So I’m the queen of potlucking now.
