Family Time Weekend Recap
Happy Monday all! I hope y'all aren't melting in the heat because it is MISERABLE! Today we are going to apparently break records from the heat and be at 100 with heat index way higher. Yay. This will be me for the next week: source We went to my second cousin's graduation party. I purposely wanted to arrive about 45 minutes later than the start time. You don't want to get wrangled into setting up, babysitting, etc and that happened to people arriving earlier from what I heard so smart call on my part. Also everyone is always chit chatting and we knew if there would be food it would be about the time they'd be eating...right again. We already ate so we were good to go and then shocked the sh*t out my family when we walked in. Final goal: ✔ The grad immediately popped up and came over to hug us and be a good hostess which was so cute. She's always been a very sweet kid but also a little badass. She was the only wrest...
Wow, that signs of wealth one was really an eye opener in a lot of ways but I think the one that makes me just mad is the line someone shared about just being able to go to a doctor or seek medical care was a sign of wealth to them because they couldn't just do that.

This is going to make for a VERY long day with a long drive. The pounding headache I have lets me know...lol
Have a super, wonderful, joyful weekend!!
I've seen the thing about drinking 1/2 your body weight in ounces before. No can do though - if I drank that much fluid I would never leave the bathroom. It would just be a constant stream in one end and out the other.
ReplyDeleteI grew up pretty privileged. I didn't know it at the time, but looking back I absolutely know it. That said, there were some tight times out of college and the two that resonated with me were "not knowing EXACTLY how much money you have at the moment" and "not having to do math in the grocery store". I used to shop with a calculator in my hand and for a lot of years I knew, to the penny, how much was in my checking account. Now neither of those things is true.
