Slower Dancing Songs: Ruby Tuesday

Four Walls @FourWalls (78708) • United States 9h

Oh, darn, too bad it’s Monday. But I can’t plan these things as I muddle through the list of songs that aren’t made for dancing and rocking out. @rebelann complained (jokingly, of course) that all the rockers were...

It just occurred to me that tomorrow is Mylot payday

snowy @snowy22315 (196032) • United States 14 Sep

I know not many make payout these days, only us regulars for the most part, who are always flapping off at the keyboard. Will you make it? I try to buy a little bit of crypto with my mylot money usually since paypal offers...

NJ Chicaa I make it each month but by not even half of what I used to get. I just let it sit in my PayPal because I use that for purchases on sites that take it. Then I don't have to do all of the billing/shipping address stuff. They'll take the $9 and then deduct the...

Beyond Reach for Many

Juliaacv @Juliaacv (54960) • Canada 14 Sep

The price of food just continues to rise. Yesterday my son and I were chatting in the truck on our way home. I told him that I had just placed an order for a hind quarter of beef. Although I always ask for a small animal, since...

NJ Chicaa someone on here wrote about making a roast a couple of weeks ago and it put the thought into my mind. Then I saw the price on Instacart and quickly dropped that idea.

Slower Dancing Songs: The One You Love

Four Walls @FourWalls (78708) • United States 14 Sep

This morning provided a good laugh for me. We had some rain move through the city; however, watching it on the radar, it was like the eastern side of the city had a restraining order against the rain! I live on the...

Do you use anything in your dryer?

snowy @snowy22315 (196032) • United States 14 Sep

Slower Dancing Songs: 99

Four Walls @FourWalls (78708) • United States 13 Sep

What, they say it might rain, after yesterday saying no rain for a month? Oh well, we need it. Trees are already turning, which is what they call “drought stress.” I don’t know why, we have little to no rainfall every September....

Finding True Love After Divorce

IvySaysHi @IvySaysHi (4516) • United States 12 Sep

One of the major life changes i had over the years was the divorce from the father of my children. The marriage was very strained and as time went on it really ended up taking a toll on both of us mentally and emotionally. There...

One week!

Amber @AmbiePam (102911) • United States 12 Sep

I’m leaving in one week for the cruise! My main excitement is getting out of this cr@ppy apartment, getting cooler weather, and cruise food. Of course, it will be nice to see Maine and Canada (my body limits me on where I can go)....

Slower Dancing Songs: My Girl

Four Walls @FourWalls (78708) • United States 12 Sep

Yesterday was rough for me. Sorry for my absence. I’ll catch up today. This month I’m honoring the slower songs that you can sway or slow dance to. This was inspired by @rebelann who is tired of my mosh pit boogie tunes....

Heartbroken about the assassination of Charlie Kirk

Vicki, #1 Creek Girl @1creekgirl (44153) • United States 11 Sep

My heart hurts so much for his wife, his family, and everyone who loved him. He interacted with the youth of America on a level that was not seen anywhere else. Why would anyone want to kill such a wonderful, strong young man...

NJ Chicaa Maybe someone who isn't Christian or who doesn't agree with his views? I can't say I'm "heartbroken" but I AM disgusted and I'm sad for his family. There is absolutely no excuse to kill someone due to their political beliefs.

Blessed Are The Rich? (Mylot Exclusive #1989)

Greg @xander6464 (45385) • Wapello, Iowa 11 Sep

Do you remember when Jesus said, "Blessed are the rich, for they shall inherit the earth?" I don't, either, but you know who does? That's right, Dopey J. Trump. He's still worried about getting into Heaven and he thinks having...

My nutty neighbor did it again.

Marie Coyle @MarieCoyle (48393) 11 Sep

I've spoken here about my neighbor, who buys things constantly--she is a wild shopaholic and likes to order things online as well. Often, this backfires and she gives it away when she discovers she doesn't like it. I have tried to...

NJ Chicaa I did Factor for a couple of months a few years ago. I enjoyed the meals. You get to pick the ones you want to receive so apparently she likes spicy food or just went with the default selection.

Here's a discussion not seen on here before to the best of my knowledge

snowy @snowy22315 (196032) • United States 11 Sep

What kind of toothbrush do you use? Is it electric or manual? I use an electric toothbrush because I have read and been told by a dentist that is overall better than using a manual one. I forget the reasoning, but I will take that...

Traceyjayne @Traceyjayne (5251) • United Kingdom 11 Sep

Trump almost got it right. May Charlie Kirk rest in peace.

The Horse @TheHorse (230462) • Walnut Creek, California 11 Sep

I had to watch Trump's reaction to the murder of Charlie Kirk, a young Conservative "influencer" who was shot to death while engaging in a discussion on a University campus. At first, Trump's words resonated with me. Anybody who...

To all remembering and mourning today, may God’s peace be with you. You just can’t waltz past 9/11 like it’s “just another day.” I will continue on with the list of songs that are slower, good for a couples only dance or a slow...

How much does your insurance cover?

Amber @AmbiePam (102911) • United States 11 Sep

I know a lot of countries have universal healthcare, but I assume they pay something for prescriptions. My insurance pays for six (have an copay though). And a lot of times they won’t pay for certain ones no matter what. So I have...

Slower Dancing Songs: Kiss and Say Goodbye

Four Walls @FourWalls (78708) • United States 10 Sep

When I said the songs would be slower, it presented a challenge. Some people can dance to anything. And, honestly, this is a song that I liked roller skating to! This is one of those great R&B ballads from the 70s. I hope you...
