Random Thoughts XI (Eleven Pipers Piping)

  • After Iowa State won the Big 12, a Cyclone made a wonderful offer to We Will that now increases our match. Now all gifts up to $400,000 between now and the Final 4 will be matched. Please consider giving at We Will Collective.

Hey @ImJustKCClone today is a preview of what MTWTF's will be like now. Well, except there is football on today. Don't be expecting to watch football on Monday afternoon.

Welp - today, Monday & Tuesday is a housecleaning and finishing moving furniture upstairs. Don't need as much desk space anymore. Wed we meet with TIAA guy to finalize what we will get "paid" each month. Thursday we start our circuit of picking up grandkids. The parents will follow and Saturday is Thanksgiving. Monday we drive our last grandkids back to Mizzou (their dad has to work that weekend). After that, it's relaxation time. :D
(there was a good reason why we planned our final day for the Friday before Thanksgiving)

Interesting things I learned yesterday:

1) While browsing around on findagrave.com I discovered that my grandparents (if they were still alive) would be celebrating their 100th wedding anniversary this year. My parents celebrated their 60th year together this year.

2) findagrave.com is a really depressing name for an ancestry website

My grandma would have turned 100 years old last Saturday.

FindAGrave.com....might be a depressing name but really fun to double back and find stuff out about your family tree.

Just about ready to leave Hell for...ummm...not really Hell. Purgatory?
