snowy @snowy22315 (210084) • United States 17h

Lets talk boxes. What do you do with yours? It is a constant challenge to keep on top of the boxes here due to online ordering. Everytime one gets cleared out, it seems like two replace it. I just got another one yesterday. I know...

Happy 4th of July! Are you going to watch Trump's speech tonight?

The Horse @TheHorse (238693) • Walnut Creek, California 16h

It's just another work day for me today. I wonder if my students will show up, or if they'll be off putting blankets out for out for our local fireworks displays. I think Trump has a "speech" scheduled on the DC Mall before a...

I hope all USA citizens are enjoying this day, the last time we had something this special happen was in 1976 and I'm sure some of you were not yet born at the time. I'm sure there will be new coins created for this occasion but...

Unexpected Lunch.

rakski @rakski (157819) • Philippines 3 Jul

Last night, I made a list of all the things I need to do today so I won't forget a thing. By 9 am, I am done with chores and tasks I need to do. In my mind, I will take my time until this afternoon before I go to the airport. By...

snowy @snowy22315 (210084) • United States 19h

59 days until Sept. 1. One thing that is cool about today is that ABC is broadcasting 4th of July events and profiling stories happening all over the country today. It is a 24 hour broadcast, which has never been done before....

Why do you think Trump's "State Fair" has been such a failure? Have you ever been to a State or County Fair?

The Horse @TheHorse (238693) • Walnut Creek, California 2 Jul

My mom was from Montana, so I have been to my share of State and County Fairs. Several days of parents and kids trying to knock things down to win stuffed animals. 4H kids showing off their "livestock." Multiple Ferris Wheels...

The Horse I hope we learn more about what childhood factors led to the creation of such a man. I did read read his niece's first book about him. It was a worthwhile read. I stand by my Dyslexia hypothesis. I don't even know if Dyslexia was a DSM "diagnosis"when Trump...

A Little Cooler

Eva James @wolfgirl569 (136875) • Marion, Ohio 18h

This morning. Last night we had a couple of storms go over. No rain but the cool winds felt amazing. It even felt a little chilly when it dropped into the low seventies. I slept great last night. Got my truck fixed this morning....

We went to Amsterdam for my 60th Birthday and the one place I wanted to go to was the Van Gogh museum. Years ago I watched a film of his life, Kirk Douglas played him, and I was captivated by his story …. I thoroughly enjoyed...

Hot Day

Eva James @wolfgirl569 (136875) • Marion, Ohio 3 Jul

But might have found a cheap used ac unit. It's one of them with the hose that goes outside. We can't use a conventional one because the window slides sideways. A guy from the auction knows who has it and will check it out for us....

Another Stupendous Day

Jim Bauer @porwest (113371) • United States 19h

Yesterday turned out to be another great day. Later on, we decided to take a ride to Sikeston, MO, about 40 minutes south of Cape Girardeau where we are staying. To give you an idea of where that is, it's home to the famous...

Jim Bauer @porwest (113371) • United States 3 Jul

Jim Bauer I actually don't mind grilling. In fact, when it's super-hot, that's the best time to cook outside if you don't want to go out or order in.

Judy Evans @JudyEv (383910) • Rockingham, Australia 3 Jul
