Machka and Heather – That is one reason that I am glad that I have Cortana on my taskbar, helps me translate words used in other countries. In most parts of the USA, cushions would be the sofa; pillows can be those you sleep on; or ones you use as decorations on beds or sofas. Cushions go on ‘outside’ furniture; which you…

Toni – Sorry you are having to change MDs, especially after being with one for 20 years. I know there’ll be a time when I have to find a ‘new-to-me’ GYN; not happy when that happens, he has treated me since my first pregnancy, which ended badly = but if not for him and his research, I probably would not be here or be a…

A federal lawsuit has been filed against a county Sheriff in this area; a father set it in motion; but, is not a party to it. Said that the school had a raid and kids were searched. Didn't hear much about it on the news and certainly not that they were 'supposedly' physically checked for needle marks, etc.'. Now they are…

Gloria and Mia - Come to June ... love the garden; and Mia, you are certainly 'blessed'.

Michele – Whenever I eat too much ‘dairy’ or things like rice (which I LOVE), oatmeal, bread, and those types of things, I feel bloated; but, right at the moment, I am not yet willing to give them up. Estee still tells me that it will go away with exercise and when I get closer to my goal. I don’t think it will ever be…

Barbie – As for goals or whatever … all of May, I rolled around on a plateau with lots of rocks that prevented me from falling off and going down; but, today (6/1/17) I am planning on going outside to walk, even though walking for an hour at a good pace doesn’t earn as my CO as 15 minutes on a good clip on the treadmill.…

Michele – No I haven’t seen the play “Southern Fried Funeral”; we don’t have any ‘cultural’ amenities anywhere in this area. Albany is the largest city; with Americus, and Columbus being the other two. Tallahassee, FL is about 90 miles for us to get to the State Line, and a good 20 more to get to Tallahassee. Sounds like…

Joyce – Are nail caps for cats for ‘looks’ or so you don’t use nail polish which might be bad since it takes a while to dry, and cats are not known for their being still (unless they want to). Or to keep them from scratching you intentionally or accidentally or when ‘making biscuits’ on your chest? Cracker gets told to go…

Lisa - Interesting article. My Mimi was rail-thin most all her life; started putting on weight when she got older. My memory of her as a child are sketchy, at best. Mother was 'big' all her life. When she met my Daddy she was 'curvaceous' and about 145-150lbs (and she was 5'2" - stretching it). She got well over 350lbs…

Pip – “High 5!” Heather – When you find out ‘how’ to let the air out of a spare tire, please let me know. My belly makes me look like I am ‘easily’ 4 months along and just beginning to show. I’m too old for that. Margaret – Louis’ Dad was stationed in Jacksonville, FL; and, I don’t know what his job was, maybe loading…

Michele – Arbonne is a company that sells products that are pure, botanically products ranging from skincare, personal care, nutrition, make-up, to hair products. You can buy packages of it, or just the individual products. Taylor said that if anybody was interested, she is getting a kit with samples and can send them to…

Pip – Sorry that you fell on your run. That seems to be a fairly secluded area; you need to have a running partner with you, you could get hurt badly and nobody to come along and help you. What sort of orchard is that on each side of the road? Other than being too bushy, they look like peach trees that have never been cut.…

Louis reminds me of taking my medications; and, fusses when I have forgotten it. Like this week … I forgot to take my morning meds until he came home and discovered they were still in my pill box. He is a really positive person, although I do know what makes him get stressed and what he says when he is. Then, I try to get…
-
Michele – While that is a ‘good point’; I try not to ‘fret’ over it. We’ve got all our bills paid, so really the only thing we have to pay for is mortgage, utilities, phone, car, gas, and groceries. We decided to ‘cash’ in some of our retirement [my inheritance] and live off our SSI and my retirement. We call the money…

Many of us are between 65 and death, i.e. old. My friend sent me this excellent list for aging . . . and I have to agree it's good advice to follow. I'm particularly interested in tune with #19. 1. It’s time to use the money you saved up. Use it and enjoy it. Don’t just keep it for those who may have no notion of the…

Katiebug - Waiting is always the pits. Usually, my yearly falls on a Thursday; when the Radiologist is there; this time they had to reschedule; so I will be waiting 2 days to hear anything. They have a spot, that gets a sonogram almost any time I go it, no change. Thankfully. They had put me on a BP medication, think it…

Cheri – That’s wisteria growing on Pip’s fence. It is very invasive; and, we had it growing up the columns when we bought the old Colonial house I grew up in until my parents remodeled it and took off the porch and then it was a Williamsburg style house. It has a pleasant scent and I think it dies back, or it does down…

Pip - Happy Birthday!

Katla and Lanette - I think Cracker's only fear is that when either of us walks out the door and she is left behind, we won't come back. She comes to whichever one is still inside and whines and talks, like she is saying, "I want to go out and be with Daddy/Mama because I am 'afraid' they are having 'fun without me'."…

Joyce – My DDnL#1 posted my wreck and pictures of my car turned up on the driver’s side, with a white sheet draped over it (to cover me and protect me from them breaking glass to pull me out) and put on FB to ‘pray for her MnL’. I was ‘livid’; there are just some things that do NEED a phone call. When my sisters saw it;…

Carol – Was hoping that ST FM would let it be an addendum to the wreck I had back last May; but, the claims adjuster who looked at the car with the body shop owner and me, said someone would call after they got the claim. When they called, she told me that it ‘had’ to be another time of damage. Said their pictures did not…

In no particular order here ... Heather – DH and I have never ‘jockeyed’ working on selling and buying a house at the same time. Maybe it was due to ‘transfers’; we sold our home, moved, then bought one. Companies would pay for motel rooms. The only time that we might have had to do that would have been when we had a…

Got my vent out of the way; good thing I said that I would only skim through the posts (actually reading them) … mine would have been a ‘record’ post! I might have blown this site up. Don’t want to do that. RITFLMAO!!!! Ya’ll are so funny!!!!! Dana - The body shop is probably one of the best in town; and, they are a ST FM…

Lanette – From ‘one door slammer’ to another … I sure wish that when this house was built; that I had just enough space at the bottom of the door to successfully do it. I sure miss it, it does make a ‘statement’ that you can no longer do it; that and ‘slamming down the phone on someone’ in the cradle. MAJOR VENT - nobody…

When I fell in love with Louis, it was his 'voice' that I fell in love with (instantly) before looking up from what I was doing to see his face. He's got beautiful eyes (his mother called them 'bedroom dreamy eyes'). He had gone through a really, really bad 1st married and she took their only daughter to NO, LA from Jax,…

Becca – WOW! 7 ½ hour drive? I’d be taking the ferry, too! One of my classmates and her husband are retired from the military up there. She loves the area; but, can’t wait to come back to GA and live on the ‘family farm’. In fact, seems to me that she spoke of Port Townsend. Either she lived near there or another HS…
