Acquired on August 11, 2018 - definitely before the purge. We judge without thinking: that sounds about right!

"Just make a new sock" - oh, to be as clever and resourceful as Marianne and all of you here! Ever try the St. Anthony prayer "Tony, Tony, look around, @myjob's lost tool cannot be found"

I'm not finding anything as "Honey Due" in my Kindle, orders history at Amazon, anywhere....

Your book is under Honey Due? That's too easy! I'll have to revisit it. Amazon purged a thousand reviews, so if I didn't copy it over to Goodreads, I'll never see it again. (Did you save copies of reviews

Indeed, I "found something of value" here! Some people can't change, won't change, won't admit they're in the wrong. This is popular advice these days from therapists - not interacting anymore

Yes, I grew up on a farm - I know that work ethic. And I know the "people pleasing" or the humility it takes to deal with the angry, outraged client or customer who puts all blame on others,

Oops, "by the way," not but the way.

You are very hardworking - I commend you! And fair. The customer who doesn't pay up cannot expect you to keep waiting and trusting him to come back with money. Of course you did the right thing - why else

Sam might dispute that, and Niko might have, but overall, YES, yes, I'm you're greatest fan - I'll accept that accolade, seeing as it's a sign of my excellent judgment and good taste. :)

Yes, yes, I've seen @boxcarblue and his magical SEVEN posts. I was too lazy to go look up his name. Thank you! :) You are not 'but an imitator' - you are the real deal! You are in his league!!!!

Oh, thank you for this!!! My DNA, and too many days of my childhood, reek of chronic complainers. Energy vampires. Never counting their blessings, never praising anyone for a job well done. Thankless,

I'm still reeling at the idea of you only age 25 yet you published a book of short stories (I have it in my Kindle still even though I no longer remember the author name!). Your friend has strong opinions

That final line, of something or other I am drawing a blank LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ohhh I love these haikus!! Truly you are THE MASTER These are all worthy of their own past. Isn't there a Seven Haikus in One Post thing...? You're the best!!!!

You in your yellow socks! I love it. Thanks for reading and engaging in this.

You're welcome! We all have a long, long list of #mustReads. You are great at helping us prioritize. :)

But in the same week, a 13-year-old boy died from a sledding accident. His twin sister and his parents burying him in the January snow... He was also active at home, planting fruit trees with his grandfather,

It's mystifying - who lives healthy yet dies young, and who smokes, drinks, drives without a seatbelt, and lives on and on and on. It's not about merit or purpose. So often, the first to die seem to be

Thanks - and I'll add Shriver to my reading list! Three sisters down, then our dad. So, I escape via fiction, and alternate realities sound great. Oh those "what-if" moments. I have to stop going

God bless your mother, @myjob, and I share your wish to have her with you still. She must have been accurate in interpreting your dreams. I used to remember mine in vivid detail, and I'm glad now that
