About that ice…

Amber @AmbiePam (95958) • United States 18 Feb

Well, they said it was going to get icy, and it did. After the ice, came the snow. Then came the call from a friend who had gone to the store for his wife to get eggs. I thought the call was going to be about the cost of eggs. No,...

BarBaraPrz It was sunny here yesterday, but only bright today. I hope your friend didn't hurt himself too much. Cracked eggs is better than a cracked skull.

Turn your pennies twice

Judy Evans @JudyEv (346284) • Rockingham, Australia 11h

I wrote recently about a saying I hadn’t heard before. Our German friend used it. Translated from her native language, it was ‘making an elephant out of a mouse’. Tonight, she used another one she’d translated and that we hadn’t...

BarBaraPrz Making an elephant out of a mouse would be about the same as making a mountain out of a molehill... But that turning a penny twice? I don't know... Canada stopped minting pennies in 2013, and I saw something about the US going that route, too. Do you still...

Tuesday (But Feels Like Monday)

MARILYN @Marilynda1225 (83766) • United States 18 Feb

Happy Tuesday Everyone! I almost said Happy Monday as it feels like Monday. Yesterday was a holiday and my daughter didn't have work so that just threw off my whole "what day it is". Although today is sunny it's COLD. I'm so over...

BarBaraPrz It was "Family Day" here in Ontario yesterday but as I don't work it didn't feel like a holiday. Today is my bd but I don't have a cake so it won't be a holiday today either. And there's so much snow everywhere, I can't even go to Tim Horton's (a few blocks...

Not as much as predicted, so far

Heather Echola @GardenGerty (162177) • United States 18 Feb

The snow did nto start until after 1:00 this morning. It sure is not as much as they thought. Maybe two inches. I can still see the streets. However, looking at a radar map I can see another band of snow is going to sweep from...

Judy Evans @JudyEv (346284) • Rockingham, Australia 18 Feb

We went to my BIL’s (brother-in-law’s) yesterday. My SIL was there too. Two older brothers died within a day of each other and we needed to put a death notice in the local newspaper. The SIL (we call her the matriarch) had an...

Did you get paid by MyLot yesterday?

The Horse @TheHorse (223192) • Walnut Creek, California 16 Feb

It's the 16th of February, so I paid my credit card bill, which is due on the 18th or so. I don't want those bankers to charge me interest. Do you pay your credit card bils on time? I got paid by MyLot yesterday. I barely made...

BarBaraPrz I didn't even notice the $$. But of course, I hadn't made it to payout yet again. And we seem to be having that trouble again getting on site.

Rain and more rain.

Judy Story @jstory07 (141830) • Roseburg, Oregon 16 Feb

The rain started a month late but it made up for it. The rain is now at average for the year. Which is really good. It stopped for a couple of days. And just now it started to rain again and it is coming down really hard....

BarBaraPrz At least you don't have to shovel it. It's been snowing here just about every day. And now it's blowing, too, so not sure if we're getting more snow or not. Nobody is out there.

So Elon now has a 13th child

NJ Chicaa @NJChicaa (121333) • United States 16 Feb

I don't get it. I truly don't. Yes he had 5 children with his ex-wife. Fine I get that. But he has now had 8 more with girlfriends. Sure he is the richest man on the planet and can pay to support them but why keep having them when...

BarBaraPrz It's his way of increasing the whiteness of America... I can't even stand to look at a photo of him, never mind get near his wee willy, so yeah, I don't doubt it was IVF. Where's the "shuddering" emoji?

Arby's Ruined Our Dinner

Jim Bauer @porwest (95999) • United States 16 Feb

Usually, when it comes to grabbing something out when we are on the go, I have a rule to never do it after a certain time, and usually that's about 2pm. Yet, lo and behold, we got a little bit later start yesterday, and I didn't...

BarBaraPrz Oh, you! I was ready to read something terrible, like finding a fingernail or something among the slices of beef. I just eat when I'm hungry, such as just now I inhaled two slices of toast with cabernet jelly on them.

The best fifth grade Valentine I saw. . .

Heather Echola @GardenGerty (162177) • United States 15 Feb

Horse-drawn bread cart

Judy Evans @JudyEv (346284) • Rockingham, Australia 16 Feb

The top photo shows a horse-drawn baker’s van which is on display in the Collie Museum. Isn’t it a lovely shape? Because I lived on a farm, we never had anything delivered by such conveyances but I know that the horses learnt the...

BarBaraPrz I remember when 'the breadman' would come to the house, and the milkman too. But they used motor vehicles. I think I remember the scrap man coming down the street with his horse and wagon, but that might just be my imagination co-opting one of my mother's...

Fiction or Based on a True Story

Amber @AmbiePam (95958) • United States 15 Feb
