1. Also my Brother's 75th Birthday today. He and his wife

celebrated their 50th wedding anniversary in July. So a big milestone year for him and the family.

2. Automatically adjust sizes for gain or loss of weight.

I've got a very expensive wardrobe just sitting in the closet because my quarantine-fifteen is more like the quarantine-thirty. It's still too risky to start going back to the gym.

3. This made me chuckle

My Dad had a series of portable, hanging wardrobes, labeled 34, 36, 38... up in the attic and would swap them out as needed.

4. Wash, dry, iron, fold, organize, and put themselves away!

Thanks! Turns out, I just missed the announcement as it was a day earlier than my actual anniversary date. Whoops!

11. Thanks! I didn't see it.

Since my anniversary was on Saturday, I was looking then; didn't think to look on Friday.

17 years!
