fireplacing came from grandma blue, sister of the esteemed YT. it began when she was speaking of some kind of re-doing involving her fireplace, but the expression just caught fire, so to speak.
i think "remembering what it's all about" began specifically with breastfeeding.
I thought it had to do with my whine about my freezing cold office combined with someone else's whine about breastfeeding?
liz, i defer since you were there earlier than i.
but WW is in any event a friendly, safe place for boob-related whines, bodily fluids, and all the other normal stuff of life that may be considered impolite elsewhere.
Actually, "fireplace" came about when Grandama Blue was attempting to sell her house, and the ad she listed in the apartment finder section was rejected because it contained "expletives.". GB could not figure out what those expletives might have been, so she tossed out "fireplace?!". At least, that's the way my Swiss Cheese brain remembers it. Does that sound right, Liz?
Old Skool was mine. Casey is my sister. My immediate family are responsible for two-thirds of the standing awards. Go us.
