I was supposed to go to Tulsa this morning (my dad was going to drive…it’s 2 1/2 hours away), but got a call from my stepmom saying she was taking my dad to the hospital because he was throwing up and thought he had pancreatitis...

I Chose "Me Time"

Kareng @kareng (71263) • United States 28 Mar

Yesterday I was headed to the flea market. I had planned on a stop at the thrift store on the way because they have been closing early and I had an Aldi stop on the way home. I had time to do all, but did not want to be rushed....

We had a wild and crazy night here.

Marie Coyle @MarieCoyle (42050) 23h

I checked the weather yesterday like I generally do. Other than wind and a bit of rain, it seemed nothing alarming was going on. We were slated to get a few thunderstorms in the night--nothing major, no problems. About 9:45 PM,...

OceanTiara @RebeccasFarm (93181) • United States 28 Mar

Well, That Was Odd

Jim Bauer @porwest (98169) • United States 20h

Perhaps it is possible that one will sometimes encounter a relative or a friend just visiting who will answer a knock on the door, but 9 times out of 10 I am going to just go out on a limb here and suggest that the person...

Four Walls @FourWalls (72767) • United States 23h

Today is the anniversary of the birth of my dear mother of blessed memory. Appropriately enough, one of her favorite rock songs pops up on the list of favorites of mine from 1985. I’m so thankful I inherited rhythm from my dad,...

Getting Big

Eva James @wolfgirl569 (113624) • Marion, Ohio 28 Mar

This is a good picture of them. They have grown really fast. They are pretty girls. They were not under the light this morning. But I will leave it there as it's supposed to get colder again. Today we are supposed to get to 70...

Say that title five times fast! As many of you are aware from my last discussion, my son and I went on a week-long camping trip in a remote area of a national forest here in Florida. For the most part, the entire camping trip...

A touching moment at Guitar Center the other day.

The Horse @TheHorse (224900) • Walnut Creek, California 20h

I was working with one of my piano students the other day. She is about 11-years-old, and Latina. I am not sure what country her parents or grandparents are from. Perhaps the US. After working on Beethoven and Bach for awhile,...

For dinner (lunch) today I'm fixing fried rice with pieces of pork, carrots, broccoli, rice of course, water chestnuts if I have them in the pantry, and soy sauce. I'll also fry some chicken croquettes. That's probably about all,...

Thanks, Y’All!

Four Walls @FourWalls (72767) • United States 12h

Every now and then I’ll treat myself to something silly. I saw this t-shirt and couldn’t resist. It’s an old Navy joke. I found it online, and the company took PayPal. I used my earnings from myLot to pay for it. It arrived...

Chipotle, anyone?

Vicki, #1 Creek Girl @1creekgirl (43107) • United States 17h

Have you ever eaten at the Mexican fast food place Chipotle? Did you like it? We decided to try it. Wish we hadn't. Well, actually we didn't. We went in thinking it was kind of like a cafeteria of Mexican food. I thought there...

celticeagle @celticeagle (172520) • Boise, Idaho 19h

Do you remember the Old Wives' Tales we heard growing up? Were any of them true? Let's look back. The one where a baby's sex can be determined by how your belly sets. One says you'll have a girl if the belly sits high and a boy...

Cute as a Button

Jim Bauer @porwest (98169) • United States 28 Mar

I can't quite pinpoint what it was about Björk, but from the moment I first saw her in a music video on MTV in the 80s, she captivated me. Though I don't recall the specific video—this wasn't the one—I remember feeling rather...

I Love It When Sellers Ship Fast

lilacskies @lilacskies (5400) • United States 20h

I buy things online for my family and myself a few times a month and tend to get super anxious when a seller doesn't ship within 2 to 3 business days of purchase. However, this month has been a seamless online shopping experience...
