This winter has been a hard season. Few of us would disagree. Besides the forecast and the many signs in nature, I should have known with the Christmas gifts that I received. I was given not one, but two pair of leather winter...

Juliaacv I don't dislike the cold, because I dress for it. Although I am tired of the extreme cold and all of the snow that we've had this year.

Juliaacv Even though most surfaces in our SUV are heated, I still need the gloves, the air inside of the car takes a bit to warm up, and then there is the walking from the car to the store.

I got my test result from Ontario Health in today's mail... Once again, my poop passed the test and the result is normal. But the thing with this test is, it wouldn't have predicted my diverticulosis, or any polyps for that...

Juliaacv @BarBaraPrz Yes, if you have internal problems such as an abcess, then a scope is necessary. The best part of the scope that I had was the anesthetic, it was such a sweet trip, I loved that drug and went out such a happy camper. I can totally understand how...

Juliaacv @kareng That's tomorrow. But I work from home every day, it is only one day a month that we have to go into the office. In my mind it just means getting up extra early, paying for parking and buying coffee since I don't have my own machine there....

Maybe you have only experienced this as a child, but maybe some of you have dealt with this as a grown adult. Someone paints you a picture of all these choices, and one by one, when you pick an option like they encourage you to,...

Juliaacv @MarieCoyle So many children died back in those days, for reasons we now have vaccinations and many safety features in place. My Grandpa had a brother, Frances, who was playing with him on the ground outside. One minute they were playing, the next minute my...

Juliaacv Congrats on your passing grade. I will gladly take this test over a colonoscopy any day, that is just too hard on a person's body, although if you have a family history of colon cancer. We did not have snow today, yet......but the day isn't over either....

Juliaacv @kareng You are very lucky you have had a tease, it has been such a long and hard winter here. Both of our SUV's are covered with salt dust and you dare not brush against them because it comes off on your clothing.

Juliaacv I worked in a long term care facility in the mid 80's for 10 years and probably half of the residents had been institutionalized and had received shock treatments. It was alot more common than you realize.

Well, they said it was going to get icy, and it did. After the ice, came the snow. Then came the call from a friend who had gone to the store for his wife to get eggs. I thought the call was going to be about the cost of eggs. No,...
