so does anyone know the story of Mary's mother? I kinda wonder what her dad had to say...
cleaning the inside of those windshields was a real challenge, and you didn't dare set anything on the dashboard because if it slid up near the windshield you wouldn't be able to reach it...

yyeepp... had mine 28 years ago while we were pregnant with our third... best decision ever. It took me a few times to finally shoot clear, in fact, I had to submit so many samples that I started to get excited at the site of one of those sample cups 😜
She's Generation Jones. So am I (b. 1963)
Damn, they even have her picture on the page 😆
Generation Jones is noted for coming of age after a huge swath of their older siblings in the earlier portion of the Baby Boomer population; thus, many note that there was a paucity of resources and privileges available to them that were seemingly abundant to older Boomers. Therefore, there is a certain level of bitterness and "jonesing" for the level of doting and affluence granted to older Boomers but denied to them
we have a locally famous graffiti bridge that regularly gets repainted and these folks started making jewelry from the big thick paint chips...
haha my dad always referred to silverware as "fightin' gear"
I'm one of the parents in this arrangement and we wouldn't have it any other way. We raised three kids, a son and two daughters. None of us are rich by any means, but we're all currently self-sufficient. The one's that live here don't do it out of need, but because they'd be crazy not to. We own a decent-sized ranch style house, plenty of room for two couples, on 2.6 acres with a largish pool, and it's conveniently located to everything one wants to be convenient to. At this stage in our lives, if it were just my wife and I here we'd go crazy. This place has been the central family gathering spot for our local extended family for decades now. Pretty much every month at least one big gathering is happening here. Anywho... We've paid it off and deeded it to a trust, with the three kids being successor trustees. Once we're gone, the property transfers automatically. They can live here forever, or they can sell it and split the proceeds three ways, but I seriously doubt they'll ever do that. Our oldest lives nearby quite affordably with his girlfriend (both child-free by choice), and our middle daughter and her husband own their own place with our two grand-daughters just outside of town. Our youngest daughter and her husband (no kids yet) live here with us. This son-in-law races street-stocks on dirt and was able to build a big 30' x 60' shop in the back, so this place is like heaven to him. He's 28 going on 12 and has a pretty good job, so he gets to buy whatever toys he wants, and with the investment of his shop into the property, he's actually got some skin in the game. They are both hugely helpful, and it's a great arrangement for all of us. We're currently kicking around some ideas for my son and his girlfriend to move back onto the property, but into their own space...
The Obama's KILLED it tonite with their speeches. Both of them had me rapt... They have more class in their navel lint than that other fuckin' guy has in his entire family.
