Where Have I Been?

Kareng @kareng (71567) • United States 6h

It's warming up and I have been getting a bit more active. Yesterday I rode with my husband to Baton Rouge for his follow up appointment with his diabetes doctor. He got a good checkup and was told to keep reducing his insulin...

Juliaacv You're such a good wife to go along with him to his doctor's appointment. We had pizza for supper last night also, but it was a take out meal, we love eating fresh pizza at home.

Gas vs. Battery operated

Angie @andriaperry (118625) • Anniston, Alabama 15h

A couple days ago a friend asked if I knew anyone who could weed eat for her, she has a nice riding mower and does that work for herself, however, she only has a battery operated weed eater that the battery always runs out before...

Juliaacv We bought our son a nice battery operated weed eater, since his yard is small enough, and he likes it. He has our old gas powered one, it is really too loud to use in town though, better for the country. He would love to buy a battery operated self propelled...

Good Morning 4/4

snowy @snowy22315 (187097) • United States 15h

It is starting to look like spring out there with the trees beginning to leaf. We will have some warm and slightly wet weather the next couple of days I think which should bring most of them out at least in the front. The back is...

Juliaacv Today was a nice spring day, we had sun, even though it was a bit on the cool side, in the sunshine it felt good. You are much further ahead than we are in this season.

Days off?

Angie @andriaperry (118625) • Anniston, Alabama 9h

When you work a 40 hour week, do you really get days off? For me it means I have work to do at home. There's laundry and cooking, which means dirty dishes, floors to sweep and mop, dusting and more. Next is mowing the grass...

Juliaacv Right now I am just vegging out, it was a really stressful day today at work. But I will wake feeling refreshed, and then do as you say, the shopping, cleaning, and cooking. I did 2 loads of laundry today, and with working from home I can move the load over to...

We're gonna just throw the poor under the bus but THE TARIFFS WILL WORK!

Scar D. Cat @Scarred4Lyfe (712) 11h

Please. Anyone pro-tariff needs (redacted in the interests of maintaining an account here). And I mean that with all my little black heart. My opinion is Trump supporters are traitors to America and they will likely burn when he...

Juliaacv He makes me a very sad person. He needs to drop the tariff nonsense, they do not help anyone.

Juliaacv I am so happy for you that you are dealing better with your back. Your supper sounds delicious. I am exhausted and haven't even come up with an idea for supper yet. I am thankful that the weekend is finally here.

4/3/25 - Meals

LindaOH @LindaOHio (185598) • United States 19h

Yesterday's trip to the bank and Title Bureau went pretty well. The teller took forever to deposit two checks that were made out to my husband. I'm sure she had to consult with someone as to what to do. All she had to do was...

Juliaacv I am sorry that she reduced you to tears, that makes me so sad. What about the other cousin, was it her daughter, that was there with you for so much, Christmas and everything else? Can you reach out to her on occasion and maybe then all of the time, although...

I met a family friend last week. They were on vacation here as they are already living abroad. She gave me a box of this Biscotti. I think biscotti is of Italian origin, no? But this is really good paired with...

What is your favorite Easter candy?

snowy @snowy22315 (187097) • United States 3 Apr

I don't tend to care much about Easter candy, but that being said, I do have two favorites..Reese's Peanut Butter eggs for one, and also black jellybeans. I haven't had black jellybeans for a while, but I do enjoy them. As for...

Juliaacv I like the peanut butter eggs too, but I never buy any as I am the only one that likes them. Our favorite candy, all of us, my hubs and son and mine, was Robin Eggs. They are a candy coated malted milk egg. They are yummy. Every year they have been harder and...

Four Walls @FourWalls (73040) • United States 3 Apr

Could you eat these?

Amber @AmbiePam (96777) • United States 2 Apr

I had never had liver of any kind. I know our resident Travel Gal, Lou, had to eat it growing up for the iron content, but the one time I went to eat it, my mom stopped me saying she knew I wouldn’t like it. So, when I got an...

Juliaacv No, I would not give that a try. I have had to boost my blood levels many many times over the years and have had to eat and drink things that were awful tasting, now if I do not like it, I do not eat it, and look for a supplement from another place.

So what to do with the porno tapes?

Scar D. Cat @Scarred4Lyfe (712) 2 Apr

True story. Just found a couple of my deceased father's VHS tapes - in a closet - and no labels on them so I pop them in the player to see what they are - pornos. Not that there's anything wrong with that, but......

Juliaacv Oh well, just shows that he was human too. I remember when I was a kid stumbling across a book called the Joys of Sex in my parent's bedroom closet, and all that I was snooping for was my Christmas presents. What a disappointment.

Kareng @kareng (71567) • United States 1 Apr

Eva James @wolfgirl569 (113925) • Marion, Ohio 1 Apr

It's pretty but I know it's very cool outside. It was only 33 F when I got up. That is close to zero C. It's supposed to warm up some this afternoon. If it does I will do some things outside again. If not I will stay inside....

Juliaacv It was sunny and cool here today too. Hopefully tomorrow will be an improvement, although we are under a heavy rainfall advisory, and on the cusp of a freezing rain advisory, so we have to keep our eye on the skies.
