Deceptive weather and cough and cold

Aparna Sen @Dreamerby (4578) • Calcutta, India 14 Nov

I am dealing with a lingering cough and cold. Couldn't sleep well last night.The fluctuating weather, shifting between warm and cold, creates an ideal environment for viruses to thrive, exacerbating seasonal illnesses. The cool...

LindaOH @LindaOHio (177809) • United States 14 Nov

Went to the dentist and he had time to do the filling that I lost. Got out right away so my husband's 2nd cousin had time to do a few things. We put out citronella/cornmint/linseed oil on cotton balls to deter mice. I had her...

11/14/24 - Update On My Husband

LindaOH @LindaOHio (177809) • United States 14 Nov

My husband hasn't called in several days...probably because of thee sundowners. I called the nurses' station around dinner time and asked them to have my husband call me back. He called and said he was eating dinner and would...

Marie Coyle Do you know what time of day he is the most lucid? I do know Sundowners can hit as early as 3-4 pm and last for hours. It can be worse on dark and dreary days. Sunlight helps but it’s rather cold to go outside looking for it, and I remember you saying he...

Making bean soup in the instant pot

snowy @snowy22315 (180362) • United States 13 Nov

I haven't used the instant pot for ages, but it is really great for making bean soup as it softens the beans in about 20 minutes. Something that takes hours or overnight if you are soaking them. This device isn't a true instapot...

Marie Coyle I don't have an Instapot. I make bean soup and such in my crock pot most of the time, it makes the beans so tender and doesn't require constant watching like the stovetop does.

Judy Story @jstory07 (139523) • Roseburg, Oregon 13 Nov

We were called at 4AM this morning my nephew is gone. There will be a service on Saturday. My sister in law said everyone is blaming his wife. You can not stop anyone from doing bad habits if they do not want to stop. Why...

Marie Coyle It’s very sad that your nephew made the choices he did. I am so sorry about the family turmoil. I am also very sorry for your family’s loss. The wife will have a hard go of it all with that many children and one being a brand new baby. What a tragedy.

Question: Is it improper for people to check their phones while eating?

Shavkat @Shavkat (139672) • Philippines 12 Nov

I am guilty of doing this every mealtime. One of the reasons is that I am always late to eat at home. As a parenting concern, I randomly advised my niece not to do this. I cannot help but hold back because I also do the same...

Marie Coyle No sun at all today here. A cold steady rain instead so no one is going outside unless they have to. I would love some couch time. Maybe tomorrow. I hope you and George are having a good day.

Marie Coyle Mice can make such a mess (ugh) and cause so much damage. Plus, they multiply extremely fast! Yes, I hope your exterminator comes very soon and can help solve this.

marguicha @marguicha (222756) • Chile 12 Nov

I wonder: if I find what I keep on losing, do I have to worry about my ability to lose things or be happy because I find them? First I lost my tweezer. Man lotters probably will not worry about this. But I´m sure that many women...

I put the tuna tettrazini away

snowy @snowy22315 (180362) • United States 12 Nov

I don't know about you, but I have a bad habit, if I have something delicious for dinner and leave it on the stove every time I walk by, I want to pick at it, even a few hours later. It is best for me just to pack it up and put...

Marie Coyle I always put it away as soon as I can. I think I know too much about food safety and how fast things can spoil, I spent some years being a restaurant inspector. What I saw in many places made me that way! I was thinking the other day about turkey tetrazzini,...
