They say that you learn from experience, and also that experience is what you get right after you need it. Today I learnt that I should just keep my mouth shut instead of trying to be helpful. I have scrapped my car (it had...

Heather Echola Some insurance companies are really tricky. I know of one company here that raised the rates on my friend's son, because his wife died of cancer. He was forty, not a flaky kid.

Heather Echola @marguicha I am hearing more and more about people getting sick from rice that sits our or pasta, even. Be careful. My grandmother on holidays left all on the table and covered with a cloth. I had some kind of stomach illness every holiday season. It got...

Went to visit him and brought him a pot roast dinner from Bob Evans. He seemed to thoroughly enjoy it; and it was good to see him eat. He reiterated that he didn't want to be there anymore. He sounded so sad. I feel for him;...

I was putting the shopping away yesterday and knocked a carton of eggs to the floor. I have tile floors in the kitchen, so they all cracked. I salvaged those eggs, putting them in a sealed container. Today I whipped them up,...

Thank you so much for the prayers and good thoughts everyone sent after my last post about the tornado warnings and sirens with the electricity flickering. It kept going on and off, which was disconcerting, and sent my dog into...

Heather Echola I am glad you and your dad are safe. Bob hears the storms even with hearing aids out, or he sees the light show. I am glad the drought is broken with no loss of life.

But these did come home with me. I didn't really want 5 guineas but at a dollar each I took them all. I will figure out who to keep next spring and sell the others. They normally sell for a lot more than that. So I don't mind...

Heather Echola I hear they make good watch dogs, and eat ticks. I know their eggs are pastel colored. Grandma used to raise them.

Heather Echola @MarieCoyle He needs to not drive. His beloved wife would not want him to kill someone. I would approach the minister. I believe he is a mandatory reporter and if the man needs to go to assisted living, he should go. I know he probably just wants to die but...

The plan was to go to Dillons, in Newton, after church this morning. It is just a mile or two straight down the road. I think Bob got a rain cloud in his brain, because he turned off to the interstate, telling me it would get us...

Heather Echola This year it is the hands, or specifically the base of my thumbs. The paraffin bath helps that. The other aches and pains could be the fibro, as it is more muscles and not in the joints. I have bad joints in my feet, too. I bet you have a lot of arthritis in...

Heather Echola Comfort foods really help. I also have muscle relaxers that sometimes help. I think the key is not to stand still but to keep moving.
