Those are just my thoughts, Marilyn. I have no PHD, but I am a mother and grandmother of 11 and it’s what worked in our house. I hope it works for you, too! Thank you for your comment.

You are more than a PhD, CJ. Much more.❤️

Oh my, Marilyn. I love you for saying that, but you give me too much credit. I rely on my common sense a lot and what worked in my house, then throw in a heaping helping of heart and love …

… all kidding aside, thank you, Marilyn for your unwavering support and your friendship. ❤️💞

I have always said that common sense is not common. And neither are heaping helpings of heart and love. But you are also sharp and insightful. You always have my unwavering support.

Gosh, if that's all he wants, then bless his cotton socks!!! Let him go shirtless if he wants! The stories I could tell you, but I won't, because it would break Substack!!! Great advice, anyway, CJ! And happy New Year again, and to Marilyn, too, because I haven't had the chance to do that, so if you're lurking, Marilyn, big smooches from me. And big smooches to you, too CJ!!! Love you! xx
