I had no idea that Ruffles cost so much. Like $4.50/bag. F that!
Edit: do I need to say it?

I know. I had to grab them, I was right next to Von's, I'm still mad.

Guys, ddeuddeg & I are asking for your prayers & positive thoughts for our former choir director, Bridget. Over the past months she has undergone a hysterectomy and double mastectomy. Since cancer runs in her father's family and she lost an aunt to breast cancer, she decided to do the double mastectomy. She is 42 years old and just got married about two years ago, We just received this email from her Mom: "a routine CAT scan prior to chemo revealed a spot on her liver, and a subsequent PET scan confirmed it. Suddenly, overnight, we had gone from Stage 2 cancer to Stage 4. I spent the day with her today, first at the hospital where she underwent a liver biopsy and later at her home. By Monday we expect to know how this new malignancy will affect her chemotherapy regimen, which is scheduled to start on Wed.,1/23."
Bridget is one of the sweetest people you'd ever want to know. She and her husband came to our choir party almost two weeks ago. She looked great. According to her Mom, Bridget feels fine. Her parents are good friends of ours, too. Thanks for your support.
May our love be like good wine, grow stronger as it grows older. ~ Old English Toast

Uh, oh... Guy Fieri is going to start making RRV Pinot Noirs... I'm scared:

Hopefully it will turn out better than his Sam's Club frozen S'mores pizzas:

She screamed for a good 30 minutes twice last night, on top of her general waking up every 2-3 hours...

Starting to feel normal again.
In other news, we started giving him other foods beyond milk and now his diapers are something to be feared. 
I'd take scary diapers over no sleep any minute of any day.

Welcome to meeting strangers and then trusting them enough to allow them to give you alcohol!
