Christmas Meal and Christmas Market

Mary Ann @therealmaryyy (3162) • Philippines 18 Dec 16

What a long busy day! We had an early Christmas Meal in the house before people leave for the holidays. We had turkey, smoked gammon, baked parsnips, potatoes, carrots, and brussel sprouts. We had wine and non-alcoholic beer. We...

I should get up

Happy Lady and Freya the Catblog Cat @Jackalyn (7558) • Oxford, England 20 Dec 16

I really should get out of bed. It is 10.28. After being up before 6 for two weeks it seems a luxury. On the other hand surely I should have crumpets for breakfast and creep back? The cat has demanded two satchets of luxury cat...

patgalca @patgalca (18393) • Orangeville, Ontario 19 Dec 16

There is so much advice on how to live a good life, or change your circumstances. One of them is to put the past behind you and look forward. Don't let past traumas affect you. I don't know how you are suppose to erase those...

John Cree I think you have a grip on the situation. Don't worry. Don't even think about it. Concentrating on it just expands the feeling. Or I'll feeling. I drink, I'm having a glass of wine at the moment actually. My sister and her husband died of alcoholism so...

Its going to be a gray Christmas card envelope year

Lenore Plassman @sallypup (61643) • Centralia, Washington 19 Dec 16

I painted my self into a corner for sure. I hated the selection of Christmas cards that sat in the rack. I super hated spending five dollars for a stupid piece of paper and envelope that had very little beauty or content to it....

What are you thoughts about growing older?

Nancy Zink @ramapo17 (30441) • Melbourne, Florida 14 Dec 16

As we go through life we are usually prepared for the future. So far I have been through a youngster, a teenager, a wife, mother, grandmother and now a senior. Sometimes I wonder what the next chapter is going to be like. Will I...

Do you like eating fish head?

youless @youless (112586) • Guangzhou, China 7 Dec 16

I think everywhere's food habit is quite different. Perhaps some areas will never think about making a dish with the fish head. However, here the fish head is even much more expensive than the fish body. The fish head can be...

These are the days-

Pat Z Anthony @PatZAnthony (14749) • Charlotte, North Carolina 4 Dec 16

One of our favorite songs by Van Morrison would have to be "These are the days". There will be no other day like this day. Hope this video works! The photo of the piano was taken by me. We were looking for a mandolin, but they...

Willy Is A Stalker

Anna @LadyDuck (472087) • Switzerland 3 Dec 16

A few minutes ago, I was downstairs in the kitchen, to prepare a cake. I saw Willy the cat in front of the window, so I opened the door to pet him and offer some treats. He did not seem interested, came to say hello and went back...

John Cree Willy sounds cool unlike Pingu, the cat I'm pet sitting at the moment. Pingu is an infamous thief, and bringer of unwanted friends. You simply cannot leave any food out, packed or unpacked. The little beggar has had cheese out of the bag and butter out of...

Life Is Sometimes Tedious and Uninteresting

Alice Henry @IreneVincent (15962) • United States 3 Dec 16

Sometimes we have to do something on a regular basis that we really HATE to have to do. Especially, if you work for someone else. They don’t want to do the chore themselves, so they delegate it to you. But, even at home, there...

John Cree Please don't. Do the hard thing and live. Do something for someone else, do an act of kindness for some poor soul. It's cold where I am if it is where you are give a homeless person something warm to wear for example. It's amazing how you will feel.

Donald Trump

Riggs Mortis @RiggsMortis (86) • Canada 3 Dec 16

Is anyone else who is a non-U.S. citizen super worried about the fact that Donald Trump is going to be in charge of a country? As a Canadian LGBT individual living directly on the US border, I am terrified.
