DEAR ABBY: Punctuality is important to me. My husband has many great qualities, but punctuality is not one of them. We have been married 20-plus years and, after many discussions, have not been able to come to agreement on this. We are late to church almost every Sunday and to most parties and family events.
Today is the 270th day of 2022 and the sixth day of autumn. DATABANK TODAY’S HISTORY: In 1908, the first Model T automobile was assembled at the Ford factory in Detroit.

Far away in an undisclosed coffeehouse, a hero in a white hat squints and looks suspiciously up at the rising sun. A kerfuffle is rumored among rubes in a faraway village, and nothing … absolutely nothing … worries a high-noon stranger like a bunch of local yokels facing the terrors of our modern world. A white horse soon appears. A quick pic for social media, and our hero drives away while a handler returns the horse to a waiting trailer to follow. Time to save us dumb locals from ourselves.
That sage advice, “the job ain’t over until the paperwork is done” serves us well during potty training and for the rest of our lives. In the old days in elementary school, math teachers made us show our work, even if we could do the calculations in our heads.
DEAR ABBY: I have been with my husband for seven years, and I’m tired of having the same fight every day. He smokes marijuana, and I hate it.
As I grow older, I have become more resistant to change and new ideas. But I am willing to give things a fair shot … sometimes.
DEAR ABBY: My grandma died when I was 7. She was my favorite person, and I adored her. She played with me when no one else had the time, taught me how to bake, told me stories and didn’t care that I was playing in the dishwater when she was trying to wash dishes.
