Folding is overrated...dishtowels? Jammed in a drawer. Nightgowns, turned right-side out, jammed in a drawer, towels folded because otherwise they fall out of the cabinet. Other clothes hung up, except for t-shirts, JIAD. If it does not wrinkle (and I own No clothes that wrinkle!!!) why fold it?

AnneWimsey comments on Jul 15, 2018:

Take your best friend for a chocolate-covered chocolate donut (something normally forbidden!) on the day, you will both smile. Religious people mostly do not regard animals as "worthy" of prayers, so the religious remarks, if any, will be directed at your well-being. Feel free to say "thank you", "it's not my thing", or ignore entirely, but there will be way less than you expect.

Exhibit A: Jerry Lewis...google before his diagnosis, then after 6 months or so. Not only does it make you gain weight, but you look like you have gained about 2-3times as much as you actually did...puffiness! It also leaches your calcium from your bones, plays hell with your blood sugar, etc. etc. On the other hand, it is a miracle for the right conditions! It also makes all your aches & pains disappear, you feel 16 again.
