Almost "blew it" with this one...........................from Rico

I saw the attached cartoon about the "new normal" and laughed at it.

- I had just been reading how 31.6% of young adults, and 51% of 18-23 year olds, were still living with their parents.

I ALMOST fired this one off to share it indiscriminately, again finding the humor in a couple old fogies (like me) talking about moving in with their parents...but I did NOT at the last minute, and pressed 'delete' instead of 'send'...close call.

- Why? I remembered that the ex-wife (~63) and her husband had just moved-in with her Mother (~85) because they had gone completely el busto recently.

It could have made for some very bad feelings had I not been paying attention.

- It's not that there is not schadenfreude operating here, and I certainly feel sorry for them all....the ex's 2nd husband is actually a pretty good guy, and after I divorced the daughter I KEPT my mother-in-law who is an absolute sweetie, so it's actually for her that I feel most badly.
