I have to get it out of my system. I have already stated that I will not be posting anything in the month of March. But it's not March yet. I am going to struggle with this. Rest assured. But I...

Courtney Dutton @porwest Well I don't have a choice. Can't afford to own unfortunately. But if you can choose not to rent our live in anything like that, then that is good.

Well, it was expected for Friday and it sure did come, together with heavy winds in the 70 mile per hour range complete with hail, thunderstorms and tornadoes. Luckily even though some tornadoes touched down close and were headed...

Jeff Moffitt @porwest I hate when I travel and essentially become a tourist myself, because I know how much locals loathe them. So I try to blend in and be low-key about it.

Okay, so Halloween was two nights ago, so it's time to move on, right? Haha, not so fast there tiger! Since Halloween is one of my most favorite holidays, I'm going to drag out the celebration as long as I can! So here's a few...

Jeff Moffitt @porwest It hurts when I work my brain, especially trying to solve riddles or jokes.

Many people have visions of millionaires that are of people living high off the hog, lavishly adorned with valuable things surrounding them. The reality for MOST millionaires is much different than that. Most millionaires do not...

Jeff Moffitt @porwest I’m thinking of changing my last name to Walton and showing up to collect my share of the fortune. I only need a measly million.

The photo shows an eggplant that we picked this morning from the house-sit vegetable garden. We’ve had a lot of roma tomatoes off the bushes but this is the first eggplant, which are also known as augergines. They are a member of...

Judy Evans @porwest We have meat just about every meal so it's good to know it's satisfying.

It was reported by our local Crime Stoppers that a man walked into a Total Wine store, opened a case of beer and literally jammed 23 cans of it into his pants and tried to walk out. He was stopped by security and the cops were...

Jeff Moffitt @porwest I never heard that saying before, but it’s a good one. And dead-on accurate for sure.

Say that title five times fast! As many of you are aware from my last discussion, my son and I went on a week-long camping trip in a remote area of a national forest here in Florida. For the most part, the entire camping trip...

Jeff Moffitt @porwest The funny thing is, up until this year we never gave any concern whatsoever to trampling around in the bushes around our campsite (gathering firewood, going to the bathroom, etc). Now we have to be a little more careful.

Everyone wants stuff but what if we only got what we need? I've been working towards the budget of needs only. It's a true lifestyle change, for sure. It's a total new way of looking at life. Not just going back to minimalism...

Kayla Tsukino @porwest Yeah, I know. Either way, eggs is one of those things that you can't win for loosing because you need a budget just for them with the prices. They also seem to be a popular food that people eat daily in some cases.

I don't really have a sweet tooth anymore these days. Maybe it was because when I was a kid, I ate sugary things like they were going out of style. When I was a kid, I'd eat anything sweet I could. Brownies, 3Musketeers, peanut...

When it comes to April Fool's Day, I don't always have a prank lined up and ready to go, and sometimes I do get fooled, although nothing readily comes to mind. Right now I have no plans to prank anyone, although I am always game...

My wife and I are not brand loyal people, but over the years we do have a few brands we tend to stick with. Rain-X windshield washer fluid, for example, as it works well and I like the way it beads rain on the windshield so I can...

LindaOH @porwest Absolutely nowhere. I once complained about a soup to the manufacturer. They told me that I must be mistaken, or something to that effect. Back in the 50s and 60s, if you complained they would send a representative TO YOUR DOOR with a pile of...

Sometimes weird things happen that just make no sense. Like my number pad on my computer suddenly going kaput one by one. Granted, I do a LOT of calculations on my computer researching stocks, accounting for the money, and...

I tend to be an early riser, usually getting up around 5am or 530am, and rarely sleep in. I like to have the whole day ahead of me. It wasn't always this way for me. In my younger years I was a night owl, and long preferred second...

Lena Kovadlo @porwest I still don’t get how one of these ended up getting into the house through the windows. They were always on the windows. Windows were closed and the screen was new so no tears in it.
