Hello Folks! Save yourself and skip this - unless you need the distraction. I’m afraid this turned into a rant to get stuff off my chest. ✳️ This year has been one thing after another. I thought 2020 was bad - but 2021 is throwing a lot of challenges at us. We lost 2 dear cousins. Both my age. Both good friends. Lisa has…

Julie Thanks for the HUGS. I need them. I’m trying different things. Just exploring ideas and concepts. I feel really good when I’m fasting - but I agree the next day of eating can trigger a binge.

Machka9 - Yes, I have a carpet rake. When I rake it good before vacuuming - it lifts the carpet fibers. And, that helps the vacuum get more of the deeper dirt. And, I’m amazed by how much better the carpet looks and feels afterwards. I use a Grandi Groom AB24 Carpet Rake, 18-Inch Head, 54-Inch Handle. I had our carpet…
