I liked the part about turning off the TV to have sex... but I thought that was what the "mute" button was for.

Use your best. We live that one. We have a couple of china sets that are gold rimmed and well over 100 years old. Probably purchased for thou$ands in their day. Thought we'd sell them to help finance the move. In this economy they're worth less than a new set from Target. So we use them all the time. Throw them in the dishwasher (oh dear God! Grandma would have shrieked) and all.

Life is too short.

Printing out and posting where I can see it every day. Sometimes with all the many errands, chores, and "obligations" we load ourselves up with every day, the important stuff gets pushed aside. Time to reverse that and push the unimportant stuff aside to make room for all the wonderful people and experiences in our lives.

Good stuff.

Perhaps this is over-sharing, a friend in my book club died last week- 65 years old, sudden, massive heart attack - ironically on her Facebook page, a week before she died she wrote "The trouble is, you THINK you have more time." That thought has been shacking a lot of crap loose in my head.

Did the "use the good China" one just last night. One of my daughters had a friend over for a sleepover, so when I brought the pizza home I served it on the formal set that has been used maybe five or six times in almost 20 years.

I can't see ever hosting a formal dinner on my own, so why not use it? Even if it gets broken...so what?

However, I still couldn't bring myself to put it in the dishwasher (sorry Bruce!).
