Sharon – So you live in a trailer/mobile home and you bought the RV to travel in; but, not live in full time? How big/long is it? Self-contained, pulling car behind it, or needing a truck large enough to pull it? Other than walking through them during a ‘show’; I’ve only stayed in one that some friends of ours had; but,…

Joyce – My oldest sister wore a 6AAAA throughout HS; they had to order shoes for her; but, penny loafers and ‘be-bops’ were ‘in style’ so with those and a pair of heels to wear to church; she only had 3 pair of shoes. Before I had children, I wore an AAA; I think a ‘slim’ is between a narrow and a medium. There still are…

Heather – Home and in your own bed is always a nice hotel room. While I enjoy vacations, I really sleep a lot better in my own bed. Our exercise machines, the few we have are basically in the area between the den and dining room (sort of a foyer area, right in front of the front door, which we don’t use). Threadmill way to…

Katie – I totally missed it. I recently ‘deactivated’ my FB account, way too much ‘drama’ and the ‘ex’ of a friend who moved to the other side of Albany, a good 50 miles, we have lost touch. I just did not like some of the things that, if you knew the situation, you’d know he was really 'dissing' her. Even though we have…

Lisa – So sorry your husband broke his wrist. Sounds like my husband; does not like taking pain medication; but, he is learning that ‘if’ they give it to you they probably know you will need it (at least for a couple of days). Since he had to be catheterized for 3 weeks, he is going to make sure it doesn’t happen again…

Marcelyn – Boo!!! … On Clinton not coming to give a speech to the boy scouts. See PM. barbiecat – Love the quote … I’m starting a ‘new’ day, month, and rest of the year. I met DH, DOS, and DBnL for lunch at Waffle House and cut my meal in ½ like I normally do when we go out; then, came home and walked the dog for 40…

Allie - Wishing the best for you and Tom. Hopefully, he will go to counseling with you without balking and will give it a good old college try. Someone that can be a good 'bounce ideas off the wall' and 'make each of you see and know what has been wrong and guide you gently toward a resolution'. Keep those names and…

Paula – To keep up with us, you can’t afford to miss a day; we post several times a day. DJ – I can’t wait until it is warm enough to get in the pool. I like summer exercise a lot better than winter exercise. Re – I mean to say that I will not see a PsycheMD in or around Albany; I like the one I go to in Macon, GA. Heather…

Becca – We’ve missed you, hope you are, at least, lurking! Re – Louis would probably go ‘nuts’ if he retired; but, he would like to slow down significantly. But, he has ‘nip-ups’ on those times he has to drive me to Macon, GA to see my MD. That particular MD is one that I ‘refuse’ to go to anywhere around this area (or…

Katie – I’ve got to look into this leggings site and see what they have since so many of you have talked about them being great. Grace – When my DYS cut his scalp wide open when putting in a pig trap; I was worried about him. His wife (fiancée at the time) sent pictures of it and said that he had driven himself into town…

Gloria – I was a paralegal for a group of attorneys who did a lot of plaintiff representation (medical malpractice and/or malfeasance, large wrecks, product liability, and some others cases (divorce and criminal); and, the first day I was shown how to set up the files, which were divided into 3 sections. After having it…

Katla – You’re so right! “Cracker” is so stinky, spoiled, rotten it is unreal. She’s our ‘baby’ and so smart and entertaining. We gave our sons a pretty wide berth; but, still holding a strong hand on them. I don’t believe that ‘human’ children can really ‘learn’ something unless you allow them to occasionally ‘face-plant’…

Janet #2 – A couple of weeks ago, my left eye itched so bad that I thought I had something in it. I wanted to dig it out, throw it into a bowl of water, and wait to stick it back in the next morning; but, could not do that. I finally called the eye MD when it started feeling like I had scratched the inside of the lid. He…

mavisjones58 - Go back one post and follow the 'link' that janetr7476 posted to get into the month of January; then bookmark the page so you will be in the current month. On the last day of each month Barbiecat will post a link to the next month; which when you get there will also need to bookmark by clicking on the…

pip - It looks like 'wisteria' which is pretty but, extremely invasive. If you like it then suggest you either plant it so it will go up a trellis or one stand-alone bush, then keep it trimmed so the tops won't touch the ground that will allow it to set knew roots than continue to spread ... When we build out house (as a…

Yvonne and Beth – I have a friend who lost her husband to cancer 3 years ago and she talks about him as if he is still alive. Freaky, to say the least. I asked her ‘if she was seeing anyone’ once and she looked at me as if I had slapped her across the face. I just let it go; she isn’t interested in going out with anyone;…

Katie – Might be so; but, willing to try it. I tried ‘turkey’ bacon; OMGoodness it was HORRIBLE! I don’t eat bacon that often, maybe on the weekends when Louis cooks breakfast for us; and, only if we have it in the house. Beth – The story of the tree being ‘up’ for a decade is interesting; but, what did the tree look like?…

Sue - I'd almost rather have my nails pulled out exposing my nail bed than to go to our local Wal-Mart. Seems like the busier they are, the less cash registers that are opened. As it is, no matter where I go, get in the shortest line; longest wait. Lenora

Sue - My GP cut my BP medications; as it had over compensated. When the intake nurse took my BP she turned sort of white ... it was very, very low; top number barely over 100; bottom number 60. The past month I have been keeping a record and it had gotten down to the low 60's several times. I was dizzy when it happened as…

Nancy – I like the Sparkling ICE drinks, no calories; but, it is carbonated so some don’t care for it. I love it; especially the Lemonade; I’ve tried all the flavors, some I like, some I don’t, more on others, some not at all. I don’t like the grapefruit one. My DDnL#1 makes cauliflower mashed potatoes. They were good.…

Leigh in France – I’ll have to find the picture of his great-grandfather; as I remember it has his name and place (of what, I’m not sure). His Granddaddy was only 6, I think, when they moved to Americus. I will do some checking. NYKAREN – Happy birthday and bit early; same to your DH; and Happy Anniversary, too! Allie –…

Glo – When I get my thyroid levels checked, they do a TSH, T3 and T4; usually the dosage is correct; but, with some of the medications I take for other reasons, it gets ‘whacked’ out. You’re right getting SSD is a ‘process’ [more like a B****] and ‘long and frustrating process’. Most people are basically ‘forced’ to hire a…

Katie - You need to add the 'moonshine'. LOL! Nancy – Sure glad y’all did not have the devastation that Albany and other counties around the Albany (Dougherty County), GA area. We did not have any damage. Of course, the first one to hit Albany was 1/2/17; still has people who have not had their electricity restored from…

[b]Katla[/b] - I did not mean to say that people deserve to be treated with 'respect' until they prove us wrong, just wasn't thinking and omitted it. I was also taught to say, 'yes sir', 'no sir', 'yes m'ham', 'no m'ham', 'please', and 'thank you', as well as 'excuse me' (in some cultures it is ('pardon me'). especially…

Grace – You only punished your DH, if you ate the last 4 pieces of Almond Roca & a Godiva truffle. Hey, I would have come over and eaten at your house, too. I didn’t do so great this weekend either. French toast on Saturday (more than I needed), yogurt with berries, at least 3 Halos, big hot dog w/bun, and my normal…

Katie - Like the dress, too, you look wonderful! I bet that room is nice to sit in and look out! Margaret - Oh, and when my parents tore off the wrap-around porch on the Colonial-style house, then it became a Williamsburg-style house. Architect had to go back and redraw the plans because when they started doing the…

The Albany, GA area has been slammed for the 2nd time in 3 weeks with straight-line winds and tornadoes. We were under a tornado warning/watch (never know which is which). Kids came down and stayed because they live in a trailer and the News Alert station was advising everybody who lived in a trailer to get out and go…
