Eva James @wolfgirl569 (108880) • Marion, Ohio 2 Jan

On the way home. My running board finally fell off . I have been expecting it but it could have picked a warmer day. I did pick it up off the tracks it was laying on. Except for that the day went...

Juliaacv We're getting some of that white crap too, but it shouldn't pile up too much. It is the cold that is worse these days.

You could hear me from 3 aisles over

snowy @snowy22315 (182818) • United States 8h

Since, I didn't feel like trudging around Walmart yesterday, I went to Kroger after I did my mystery shop. I only planned on getting 2 or 3 things, but you know how it is, when you start walking around you always think of more...

Juliaacv That was an annoying cart. I've had carts like that too. We have to get our cart outside and roll it into the store after putting in our quarter, and you don't realize that it is a bad one until you get into the store and start out on the even flooring. By...

Do you have a favorite bird (or least favorite)?

Amber @AmbiePam (94562) • United States 13h

I love a Cardinal, whether it be male or female. Of course, there are more colorful birds that get my attention, but I saw a male Cardinal feeding a female Cardinal once, and they both looked so striking together. My stepmom is...

Juliaacv That is an adorable picture. Like you, I love cardinals too. They are so pretty, inquisitive to watch and have a sweet song. I remember watching one for about an hour one day. It sat on the side of the driver's door on the car and looked at itself in the...

Kareng @kareng (62696) • United States 1 Jan

Is It Hard To Load A Dishwasher?

Kareng @kareng (62696) • United States 2 Jan

It's me; I have been trying to restore order at the house today after being gone for 3 days babysitting my granddaughter. I was actually shocked to see that my husband and finished unloading the dishwasher and had started...

Juliaacv My husband is the same way. He should unload it so that he can see how I stack it, that would help him, and maybe your should have yours do that. My little twin granddaughters put their dishes and utensils in the dishwasher every day after they have lunch. My...

Oh, that thermostat!

Marie Coyle @MarieCoyle (39171) 1 Jan

I am trying so very hard to get used to keeping my heat at a lower temperature. For those of you out there that have central heat/air, are you trying to conserve by keeping your home colder than you would prefer? I would...

Juliaacv In the winter we keep our temperature at 23C which is comfortable for us. We have in-floor heating, which helps alot. I hope that you can keep your furnace at this temperature, keep moving, wear some slippers and a sweater.

And Winter Is Here

Angie @andriaperry (117273) • Anniston, Alabama 2 Jan

Living in Alabama can be strange sometimes, the weather can be mild or a deep freeze. Most of the time winter comes hard in January and February. The last few days of December the temperature was nice and most people wore short...

Juliaacv We had mild temperatures, by our standards, until today. Today and further tonight, we will get colder and colder. But it is January, so better in January than in March or April, because sometimes it happens then too. Get cozy and stay warm.

Goals

BarBaraPrz @BarBaraPrz (47827) • St. Catharines, Ontario 2 Jan

@Horse is always asking us if we made our payout goals. Last time he asked I said my goal was to hit $1 by the end of the year. Well, I didn't quite make it, but yesterday I was at $1.0055. Whoopee and yahoo! Now, if...

Tesla cyber truck explodes at Trump Hotel in Vegas.

Marie Coyle @MarieCoyle (39171) 1 Jan

Very weird, indeed. I mean...how can that be a coincidence? I suppose it's possible, but with Musk in the picture with Trump on a daily basis, it seems unlikely. I guess time will tell. Someone died, and many were hurt. We are...

Juliaacv How very sad. Your son's words really ring true, sadly. I wonder if these 2 incidents within a number of hours, have anything to do with the hatred that Trump has put out and is coming back. Someone needs to muzzle him before more innocent lives are lost.

Juliaacv We watched a press release this afternoon on television about this. It is so terribly sad. So many innocent lives lost, so many injured, and countless people on edge fearing for their safety. I felt so sad when realizing that this was deliberate.
