Kate *Billion*??? Wow. Well first I'd set aside about a million for my future needs, another million for my daughter, see what my parents and siblings need, and then seriously consider what differences I could make in the world with a few mega million or...

Kate @AbbyGreenhill It's right there in a gray box as soon as I hit the "my account" link... it says "customer since...." And the way it worked (I don't suppose they still have the check option, but I'm not sure) is the order was made, you chose the "pay by...

Breakfast is considered the most important meal of the day because it is our first meal before the others. But does this work for you? I wake up barely hungry, so... Breakfast is not the most important meal for me. Mine is...

Kate We eat dinner very early here, so by the time breakfast rolls around, I'm usually very hungry. That's probably the most important meal to me health-wise.... but I have to say that I enjoy dinner much more!

How many times have you been angry at someone, but you did not want to start a fight with him, so you counted up to 10 to calm down, but nothing happened? I always try to avoid a quarrel and to try to solve it diplomatically or...

Kate I've never really been a "count to 10" type of person... too much steam can build up in those ten seconds. :-) Seriously, though, I either deal with things immediately or leave the situation until I *can* deal with it rationally.... no counting needed,

Many people avoid at all costs drinking tap water for saying they are still "dirty" water and some people only drinking when it's really necessary (I include myself here ). What do you think about it?

Kate It certainly would be a lot more economical, I'll say that much! Bottom line, though, is that I have tummy issues when it comes to chlorine and can't drink tap water without feeling sick, so we need to use bottled water. So for me, it's not a matter of...

I must admit that I certainly do. I will be doing one thing, get distracted by one thing or another, and forget what I was doing before I got distracted. My mind has a tendency t wander at times too, so I end up not getting done...

Kate I hate to admit it, but I'm afraid I'm like that, too. My mind is always racing and I love learning new things, so I think sometimes it goes faster than I can keep up with it. Then when I remember what I'd been doing, it's like "Uh, how did...

We went out for dinner Saturday had pasta, as daughter and I are working on Sunday. My daughter gave me a plant for Mother's Day. Hope you all have a wonderful Sunday. Its so nice to enjoy a meal cooked by somebody else.

Kate You're right... it's great when we don't have to cook! My Mother's Day dinner tonight will be like that. My hubby and daughter asked where I wanted to eat out and I said I'd rather eat in and have them make me bacon wrapped scallops, so they'll be...

Kate Oh my goodness, @DWDavis ... if this hadn't said she had been in the military and a few years older than you, I'd be totally creeped out and asking if this happened in PA... because I was part of the very same scene you described. Well except for the kiss......

Kate Happy New Year to you, too! I'll bet that oregano smells amazing! I like using it, but I haven't actually tried growing any yet. I'm sure it would be much better than the bottled stuff I get. :-)

Kate Thank you, @DWDavis ... there were far too many years that I just thought about it and never put it into action... or did just "little things" that may have been appreciated, but far below what I would have been able to do.

Kate @MALUSE ... of course I'd see the total first and decide whether or not I want to pay it. :-) I give a lot to shelters and food pantries... I want to go to a different level. Pay it forward isn't about whether or not someone needs financial support, it's...

Kate I absolutely love your poem! Excellent! :-) I was a pretty little kid in the 60s, but I do remember the 70s with sometimes frightening clarity. hehe Well, that's okay... I think I've totally lost the 90s!

Kate I've always had this big idea of paying for the groceries of the person in front of me in the grocery line... haven't done it yet, but I'd love to if it's reasonable and not a $300 cart full. :-)
