Yeah, yeah, I know. Just shrug, give me the “are you out of your mind” remark, and we’ll move on. Tomorrow will be better. Here’s today’s song on my list of favorites that charted in country music. [b]Three Steps...

My 100 Favorite Charted Pop Songs: There Won’t Be Anymore

Four Walls @FourWalls (68148) • United States 25 Nov

Oh, y’all are gonna be mad at me today. I’m not (deliberately) cheating in using this song on the pop side, as I will explain. I’ll just duck under this table while you throw things and give you the next song on the list of my...

I'm going to bury this Christmas card

Judy Evans @JudyEv (340355) • Rockingham, Australia 24 Nov

We received our first Christmas card today. It’s quite small but made of recycled paper which has been embedded with Swan River daisy seeds. You soak the card then place in some earth, lightly cover it and keep it moist....

The Lifesaver I Never Thought I'd Use

celticeagle @celticeagle (167143) • Boise, Idaho 24 Nov

Five years ago I wouldn't have thought I would ever get a cell phone. I was stuck in my landline ways. Always the traditionalist, change scares the bejesus out of me. But, I was watching HSN one night and the host was discussing...

BarBaraPrz I finally got a cell phone for my 70th birthday (or was it 71st?). It's just a basic flip phone, no data. It's all I need as no one calls me anyway, just Juanita, and I have a camera to take photos and my laptop to get on the 'net.

Judy Story @jstory07 (139748) • Roseburg, Oregon 24 Nov

We went and got a toy and some clothes for my great grand son. On the way home this man was holding a sign that said "Store closing. Big Lots. Everything 25% off." I had already wore my husband out. So we will go back on...

People With Bad Attitudes Really Bug Me

celticeagle @celticeagle (167143) • Boise, Idaho 24 Nov

Pessimistic and arrogant. Even rather snide at times. Derogatory and even mean. I run into them on here. I think the people that I follow here are very nice and cordial. We seem to have quite a bit in common. I enjoy their posts...

Women Who Mimic Trump Need to Have Their Heads Examined

celticeagle @celticeagle (167143) • Boise, Idaho 24 Nov

Dear ole Kari Lake. I would feel a bit sorry for her if she weren't so pathetic. She ran for Governor of Arizona and failed miserably. Then here in November 2024 she ran for the Senate and again lost. She is arrogant in that...

Tried something different

Heather Echola @GardenGerty (160720) • United States 25 Nov

Always lots of hacks for getting things done online. One I have seen is to bake your eggs in muffin cups. I did this for this week, so only six eggs. I am not impressed, but I will eat them. I like it better if I scramble them...

BarBaraPrz They baked eggs in muffin tins a few years ago at the Centre and put them on muffins for our brekky but now they just offer hardboiled eggs. Maybe I'll ask why they stopped baking them next time I go.

BarBaraPrz I remember this... Didn't the Tremeloes record it in the 60s? And maybe Elvis? Sounds like something Elvis would record. Jim Ed could have been a teen idol if he cleared the path between his eyebrows.

Sigh. Another pair of sunglasses stolen from my truck.

The Horse @TheHorse (218971) • Walnut Creek, California 24 Nov

But I have learned to outsmart them. They got my Vuarnets. They got my Raybans. They even got both $12 shades in bought at the beach in LA. Of course, these were four separate incidents. But I have found some shades I really like...
