    This whole culture of giving everything a label and accepting it as a crutch in life versus adapting and overcoming is tiresome.

    My girlfriend is 100% against labels in fact, she doesn't like me calling her my girlfriend and refuses to call me her boyfriend even though we've been monogamous for over a year now. She says it's too high school (she's 48).....so I asked her, how do we refer to one another, she said, I like partner, to which I replied, but I'm not g a y......

    I've been through yards like that! Not good.

    One of my work friends used to have a neighbor that had his indoor carpet look like that. I saw it through the windows when he was having a block party. He called it the house of horrors. They were smaller from cats and small dogs, but still...how could anyone live like that? The house eventually went into foreclosure during that 2009-2011 era. Someone eventually cleaned it out and gutted the flooring.

    Funny enough, I've actually had some good lumber runs at HD recently.

    I was grabbing some 2x4's a few weeks ago, for our kitchen remodel. I told my wife I was getting 10 of them. I think it was around the 14th or 15th 2x4 that I put on the cart that my wife asked why I was getting so many.

    I informed her that I was hitting gold here, and I'm grabbing extra!

    Same thing with some 2x6's last week.
