Valerie J. Routhieaux @just4him (317238) • Green Bay, Wisconsin 20 Nov 15

I didn't get the e-mail, simply because I hadn't opened them yet this morning. I was supposed to have counseling this morning, but Pastor is sick and sent an e-mail to let me know, however I found out when I got to the...

E Peel Funny how the one time we don't check there is an important message. I have gotten all the laundry done and am preparing to go out for a few items at the grocery, then home to warmth and din din.

A near death experience. Lessons learned about not giving up.

The Horse @TheHorse (220275) • Walnut Creek, California 21 Nov 15

Two years ago, we had an unusual cold snap here in Northern California. I don't remember any rain--just a whole week with lows in the teens and twenties. An occasional freeze at night is not unusual here, but a week of near...

E Peel How sad, if it was my plant I would bring it inside and wrap a towel or other soft warm thing around the planter and if possible put it in the sunshine via a window. I am also weird but I speak to my plants (and even water) and would say, "I'm sorry and I love...

I must be doing something right at myLot!

AbbyGreenhill @AbbyGreenhill (45494) • United States 22 Nov 15

I am not bragging about my bank or how many friends I have gained here. No, this is much different. I try to do my best welcoming newbies and encouraging them. We all know how it feels to be new. I also have encouraged all of...

On the 7th Floor

Eric Fink @esfes025 (432) • Elkhart, Indiana 22 Nov 15

We recently moved about a month ago to an apartment that has 7 floors. One nice thing we are learning so far about the place is based on the idea that heat rises. We have not really had to run our heat until last night because...

E Peel I love when the neighbors heat heats the upstairs. I have hung heavy cotton (looks like velvet) drapes (one on top to prevent cold air and one long one on the bottom) on two tension rods between the hall and bedroom and heat a smaller area. Hope you have a...

My First Day at My New Job Went Well

Nelda Hoxie @NeldaHoxie (1381) • United States 19 Nov 15

I just hung out with the owner and learned about the register and stockroom. I already knew how the shop was laid out and where things are. There was a steady stream of customers, but I knew most of them and they were very nice....

What inspires you to write?

Lena Kovadlo @lovebuglena (44721) • Staten Island, New York 19 Nov 15

As writers we can talk about what's going on in the world, in our lives, or the lives of people we know. We can talk about our experiences and the things we have been through. We can educate people about something we know. Or we...

E Peel I prefer to write about positive ways to improve life and if at all possible avoid the troubles of today as the media reports as they use scare tactics to keep people in fear and UNINFORMED. I try to lean toward healing things instead of irritating things.

I Heard a Four Letter Word Today and I Just Had to Check It Out

Valerie J. Routhieaux @just4him (317238) • Green Bay, Wisconsin 19 Nov 15

No it's not that four letter word, and it doesn't start with R either. It starts with S. The forecast says we're supposed to get 1-3 inches of SNOW on Saturday. It's also in the forecast for tomorrow night. Now if only the...

E Peel I love snow! It makes idiot drivers HAVE to slow down if only for a few hours. It also makes things that are ugly beautiful covered in a blanket of white. Be safe and enjoy!

Mylot and real life

sofs @sofssu (23662) 16 Nov 15

E Peel Excellent post! They look awful and bitter and an elderly woman would be right to clench her purse faced with Daffy lips. good grief. What's next dirty hair being a rage? A TRUE smile is felt as well as seen and is the Universal language.

Should I Ditch My Car?

Scholera @Scholera (56) • Newcastle Upon Tyne, England 17 Nov 15

Over the past few weeks, I have been umming-and-ahhing over whether to keep my car, or bust myself down to the rank of pedestrian. We only really use the car for shopping trips, and the occasional visit or jaunt. Unfortunately,...

E Peel For me a car is a must and a dang good one new or like new so it runs well and is dependable. For some the unreliable older car is a nightmare, but I feel the car is a form of freedom and for me could not give it up. I did live downtown in a friends penthouse...

Has Religion Been Wrung Out of Christmas?

Scholera @Scholera (56) • Newcastle Upon Tyne, England 23 Nov 12

For some people I know, Christmas is all about the presents, the dinner and the booze. And for many children, it's all about the guy in the sleigh, not the dude in the manger. I'm not a Christian by any stretch of the imagination,...

When the bridegroom changed his mind

Boingboing @boiboing (13153) • Northampton, England 9 Nov 15
