My mom lived in that old house for many years. She had planted some lilies of the valley out front and would enjoy the scent as she sat in that old ratan chair after some chore she had completed. She was a voracious reader and...

Fleur @celticeagle Well it seems like it doesn't it? A lot of makes you 'you' is all your life experiences so far as well as all the wisdom acquired over years, if you take all that away there's not much left really.

Fleur @Ronrybs And a treasure trove for fraudsters! When you go to a physical branch of your bank you can be fairly sure that it's the genuine article, no-one has just taken over a building, stuck up signs and hired staff to pretend to be cashiers!

Fleur I have a subject I'd like to write about, but I've bee thinking about it for ages. I'm not the kind of person to rush into things, so there's always the risk that while I weigh up the pros and cons, the moment will pass or else someone else will do it!

Fleur @LindaOHio I guess self-publishing the book is the easy part nowadays, but getting it noticed is not so easy!

Fleur Well food always seems expensive when I'm doing the shopping, but then when I overhear what other people are spending... it's pretty good value Health; thankfully I am healthy at the moment so nothing to spend there. Household appliances; all...

We all need a refresher on common sense now and then. While shortcuts might be tempting, prioritizing safety is essential. One simple way to do this is by being mindful of where you stop your car at intersections. I say this,...

Fleur @Ronrybs Well when it works, yes it saves a lot of time in trips to the library, trying to get to the bank in your lunch break and such. But when it doesn't work the alternatives often aren't available any more.
