Charleston is officially our new zip code, and I'm loving every bit of it!
Sharing our first days as locals with my dad was the icing on the cake 💙

The world has officially gone mad (buying a 2025 calendar)
My dad mentioned he wanted a new calendar for the new year. How hard could buying him one be?
Very…
To start with, Amazon’s search results for 2025 calendars were mostly out of date 2024 and 2023 offerings.
Staples was not much better.
They had one in date (boring calendar).
Argos though I wanted to buy advent calendars or support one of the only two football teams that exist.
Apparently, it was too much to ask that there be a stock of date-appropriate offerings with cats or sci-fi or something.
You can get a cats pooping calendar though.
There’s no picture for this but when I Googled more widely, there were so many NSFW calendars. So many. Who knew?
I should not have been surprised that the first decent one I found (RSPB) was sold out.
This was going to be one of my posts with tables and side-by-side comparisons but there is literally nothing to standardise against. So you are getting my sarcastic comments as I take screenshots looking for a wall hanger for my dad.
This one wanted me to subscribe by email. I guess it is out of stock or something. It took me longer than I care to admit to see the little grey circle saying “out of stock”. Because grey is the universal colour for “there’s a problem you need to know about”.
At least cardfactory.co.uk knows what they are doing with a listing of 68 products.
I’m going to talk to the family about making him a custom calendar with family photos in it. At least that way it will have the right year on it.
Why must shopping be so much hard work?

My 87 year-old dad is addicted to … LinkedIn! 😳
He's a computer nerd with creds!
He got the first computer in this house in 1986, I think (Commodore 64).
At work (he was a functional rehab physician specialized in amputees), he developed his own program in visual basic to print patients' social security forms, and to feed his patients' medical files.
Now retired, he owns several computers, an iPad, an iPhone and an Apple Watch. He is independent as a user and groks web things too <3

My dad’s been shadowbanned from pizza
My dad has been (unintentionally I hope) shadowbanned from ordering pizza. I think he has noticed too.
Let me tell you the story.
My Dad
Dad turned 80 not so long ago. This came as a minor surprise to him as he has said (a lot), “I don’t feel 80. What am I doing being 80”. I once suggested that we sign Dad up for […]

Took me a minute to find a good photo, but Happy Father’s Day to the best dad ever. We’ve had our ups and downs but you’ve always had the best of intentions for me and have always been there whenever I’ve needed help. Thank you for everything and sorry about all the rough times I gave you. You showed me how to be a good and capable person in many ways that I’ll always appreciate.
The past year and half have taught me to appreciate everyday with you and all the little things you do. The impact of you’ve made and the example you’ve shown.
Love you dad

My parents left today after staying a month and a half at my place. #MyMother shut (me) down three times.
I don’t think she’s coming back 🤷🏻♀️
Her bed here isn’t comfortable enough, the road-trip is too long, but chiefly: I’m here and we don’t get along well even though we make efforts.
Last December, when they visited a month and a half, had been ok-ish for the both of us. Before that, she hadn’t visited for 12 or 13 years.
#MyDad on the other hand is a piece of cake ♥️ -
My father died the night before last night. Such an incredible man. Virtues and flaws, he had my complete adoration, respect and love.
Anything good in me is all him.
Sadness overflows, love infinite.Yet incredibly grateful to him for his love, humor, integrity and curiosity, and boy did we have wonderful, exciting and joyous adventures together.

My dad is over 60 and accordingly did not grow up with the digital world. When he has to send an e-mail with an attachment, he first sends it to me as a test run and calls me to see if everything has been delivered. 😅 📬
I'm pretty proud of him, how he manages it all!
Btw.: He only uses his smartphone because he doesn't get along with computers.

Father and Son.
This photo reminds me of my dad.
He was great and kind.
He is now resting in peace.#mydad #father #fatherandson #family #familyhistory #rip #memory #remember #mylife #life

Every ounce of music in my body comes from my daddy, Rick Chinisci, who is just the cutest, most talented fella around! Look how much fun he has playing this 1918 song, The Tiger Rag.

#AboutMe🌹My Dad
How I wish I'd still have him with me, he had this gift to find a solution to all problems. I miss him a lot! If only all men would know their daughters will always need them!
