Four Walls @FourWalls (70496) • United States 21 Jan

Hi, everyone. I’m sure we were expecting this, but that doesn’t make it any easier to hear. Linda OHio’s husband, Ken (“Mr. OHio”), passed away this morning. I just got off the phone with her. Needless to say, she’s...

Four Walls @FourWalls (70496) • United States 20h

Along with music, this year I’m looking at others in the world who left us last year. This seems to be going well, so I’ll — sadly — repeat it next year. That’s the bad thing, we’re already losing people. Today’s actor would be...

rebelann1949 I am of the opinion that what many of those Nutritionists do not tell us is that fruits high in sugar are harmful only if you eat to much of them and of course they do not tell us how much is a safe amount.

BarBaraPrz @BarBaraPrz (48235) • St. Catharines, Ontario 27 Jan

I had a dental appointment on the 16th of this month, but I had to reschedule it because it was snowing -- a lot -- and I wouldn't be able to shovel my way out in time for it. So I rescheduled it for the 21st which started out...

Treating milk fever with a bicycle pump

Judy Evans @JudyEv (344475) • Rockingham, Australia 24 Jan

I wrote about the ‘Madigan squeeze’ which replicates the birth process and is used on calves and foals to help them get started in life. It’s quite a simple technique in a way but surprisingly effective. MyLotter Lenore Plassman...

Cold Days and Comfort Food

rebelann1949 Sometimes but here the weather rarely gets that cold although if it got down to 10f I'd freak. Deserts usually have the winter cold in the wee hours of the morning when I'm tucked under warm covers thankfully.
