Happy Saturday, members! Isn’t it wonderful waking up and not having any alarm set? Well, for some of you lucky retired folks, every day might feel like a weekend! 😉 Any fun activities planned for today? As for me, I’ll be teaming up with my older sister for a cooking session. It’s a wholesome activity compared to our mischievous adventures as children. What did you and your siblings do for fun? Share your memories on our forum here, and let's reminisce together! Now let’s move on to the answer to yesterday’s riddle. What was it again?
If your uncle’s sister is not your aunt, what relation is she to you?
So, who is she? She is, of course, your mother! I got a bit of a headache trying to solve that one. But you, members, seem to have solved it without breaking a sweat. As always, if you got the answer correct, you’ll find a shout-out waiting for you at the bottom of this newsletter.
Next up, it's time for our 'What Would the Grandkids Say' segment. Today, we'll be taking a look at the phrase 'it's giving'. The kids today use this phrase to describe something that embodies a specific energy, characteristic, or mood as a way of expressing their admiration for it. For example, if you're wearing a stylish outfit, they can exclaim, 'Grandma, that outfit is giving major fashionista energy.'
