Memorial Day's chilly rain has developed into hot-then-cold-then-windy-then-hot weather. The Brick has persevered, nailing balusters ("Not banisters!") on the railing down the new back steps. (If this doesn't make sense, read May's Frugal Hits & Misses.)
I have a big appraisal report to finish up, as well as a few small ones. The kids have a booth at a gem show. The truck needs a recall appointment. And we both need haircuts. Life goes on.
Meanwhile:
(Yes, this is early. I have deadlines to meet.)
A huge sonic boom and 'earthquake' hit the East Coast. They're still not sure what happened. Maybe a meteor?
Anna Delvey may be heading 'home' soon -- if the government has its way. (I hope she does, quite frankly.)
A classic from The Prudent Homemaker: Winter's 1840s era costume, and how to make it.
DNA and other evidence leftover from OJ Simpson's trial. Turns out there's a lot. Hmmm... why didn't we hear about some of these damning details?
Nearly 15 million paid for the 'Rosebud' sled in Citizen Kane. And more than $500,000 for one of Indiana Jones' whips. Yow. Speaking of treasures:
A new exhibit features Queen Elizabeth's coronation gown -- and it's far more complicated than you'd think.
Some of the Met Gala's most awkward moments. Not to mention weird outfits.
A Japanese temple, housing an 'eternal flame' thought to be 1200+ years old...burns. The flame, ironically, was rescued, and still burns.
Colorado's goveror gets censured...by his own political party!
Hoffman Challenge contest winners, including Sharon Schlotzhauer's Like A Tree Firmly Planted.
Have a good week.
