Love this! So creative. I hope you get some of Grandma's real cookies to munch on in addition to the electronic kind.

Fun column, yes I also remember baby oil with iodine to improve it before sunbathing. May account for my three skin cancer surgeries last year.

Same here. I even bugged my parents to get s sunlamp so I could sleep under it.

In other news, remember when we used to slap baby oil all over ourselves at the beach?

Awww, thanks Jarv. Yes, I love those SPF shirts as my top, because I couldn't find the match for the bottoms. Happy, holy Christmas to you as well!

I LOVE this! I agree with you on all of it. Hate the cookie grab, didn't realize the time and $$ it taks for the PO to photograph my mail and then email to me. Swim suits: I now wearing nothing but swim shorts and SPF long-sleeved tops. That way I don't have to slather sunscreen all over my back and arms. I am amused by all the weather terms and also the new "roles." Thanks for writing this, Terry! Love to you and your family and may your days be holy and bright!

Haha, yes. It took me almost a year to buy my last bathing suit! Happy Festivus and all the rest of it, Diane.

Happy and healthy 2025 to all! (And I SO agree about the bathing suits! Ugh.)
