Moving on up

NJ Chicaa @NJChicaa (125817) • United States 10h

I was just moved to the Observation Unit of the ER. The explanation that I've been given is that I will be closer to the doctors so they can monitor my progress more closely. As I wrote earlier I've had the last magnesium...

Do you have any Christmas decorations that stay up all year?

snowy @snowy22315 (201027) • United States 30 Dec

I have a picture in my bathroom that is technically a Christmas picture but it doesn't scream Christmas. It is red and yellow with a bit of green and says joy and blessings. That is a nice piece and stays up all the time. I also...

Jeff Moffitt I have a handmade metal sign that says "Merry Christmas" hanging above the French doors that lead out to my back deck. I had a metalsmith make it for me about 8 years ago. I don't know why I don't ever take it down, but it's been hanging there ever since I got...

12/29/25 - Meals

LindaOH @LindaOHio (210006) • United States 30 Dec

80 days until spring. Bird flu is suspected by officials after 12 swans died at Lake Eola in Orlando. Can you believe that it's going to be 2026 the day after tomorrow? Where did this year go? The weather has been lousy. Very...

Jeff Moffitt I hope I don't catch the bird flu! I was just at Lake Eola in Orlando a few weeks ago. Such a pretty part of downtown Orlando. Very cool that you got your new smartphone. I hope you have lots of fun playing around with it.

Be happy.

Judy Story @jstory07 (147088) • Roseburg, Oregon 28 Dec

There are ways that you can be happy all of the time. Go for a walk every day. The walk is good for every part of your body. A walk is refreshing and just makes you feel fresh all over. Smile at other people when you walk by...

Jeff Moffitt For me, those strategies work. Just being out in the sun makes me happy. Being around my children makes me happy. Even the small and simple things in life make me happy. But, unfortunately, there are people out there who--for whatever reason--cannot find...

What Is New Year's to Me

Loretta @noni1959 (11894) • United States 30 Dec

The last few years had and still has its ups and downs, and I learned a lot, cried a lot, and not feeling 2026 is my year. I've said that for several years, and lost hope expecting things will magically get better. I'm ready to...

Jeff Moffitt I do plan on celebrating New Year's, but I don't really have any great plans for 2026. To me, it will just be another year. There will be good days, there will be bad days. But I will make the most of each and every situation I'm faced with. I love your...

Vintage TV - The Twilight Zone

LindaOH @LindaOHio (210006) • United States 27 Dec

The Twilight Zone was created by Rod Serling. There were 156 episodes from 1959-1964. The series had a reboot in 1985, 2002 and 2019; and a movie was released in 1983. I have many, many favorites; but following are Time...

Jeff Moffitt Time Enough to Last was and is my most favorite episode of Twilight Zone. I first saw it as a teenager, and at the time I was a complete book nerd, practically reading a novel a day. So I empathized greatly with Henry about always wanting to read, and felt so...

Trapped by my kitty

snowy @snowy22315 (201027) • United States 28 Dec

Thankfully, he has moved to the arm of the chair now, but I think only those that have a kitty know the honor of being chosen by a kitty as their soft place to sit. I had to keep postponing tasks earlier..as I was appointed by...

Jeff Moffitt Many years ago when I had cats, they would always make themselves home in my lap whenever I was working at the computer, or just watching tv. You wouldn't believe how many times I was "trapped" because I didn't want to move and wake up the cats.

Lady bugs to the rescue

Judy Evans @JudyEv (368579) • Rockingham, Australia 27 Dec

Jeff Moffitt It's nice to see them looking at natural alternatives to pesticides. I love ladybugs, and know that they are very beneficial insects. I thought Adelaide was the capital of Australia? Oh wait, I just looked it up...the capital of South Australia!

Back on Netflix. . . for now

NJ Chicaa @NJChicaa (125817) • United States 26 Dec

I swear there is no rhyme or reason to it. I've been on my ex's Netflix account since, well, since he signed up for it when we were married or even before that. After I moved out he let me stay on it as well as the Xfinity...

Do you keep things that are functional, but imperfect?

Amber @AmbiePam (109519) • United States 27 Dec

So I have this ottoman, and the top comes off for storage (it’s not a huge one at all or I wouldn’t want it). I got it for free, but there was a slit in the side, like a two inch, precise slice. I might not have noticed it, but I...

Jeff Moffitt I do, for sure. I hate throwing anything away, especially if it still has life in it. I'm not a hoarder by any means, but I try to get the absolute most out of everything I have before getting rid of it.

Free Rolexs for British prisoners-of-war
