Our Local Thrift Shop Won't Be Opening

MARILYN @Marilynda1225 (83064) • United States 19 Jun 20

It's sad news to see that our local thrift shop has become a victim of the economy and of Covid 19. They posted a sign in the window that they won't be reopening and then the notice was all over our local Facebook page. This...

Thinking about social distancing

frances r @Dragonairy1 (1722) • Newcastle Upon Tyne, England 7 Jun 20

These days about the only thing most countries can agree on is the need for social distancing, so it’s been on my mind a lot. I now watch tv, and think they’re not social distancing, even if it was something made last year...

Lavender

Heather Echola @GardenGerty (160879) • United States 14 Jun 20

I had one variety of lavender that survived last winter. Then we had a freeze and it had a major dieback. I took the time to cut all that had died off and the plant has done wonderfully. It put on lots of new growth and is filled...

Only one item will go back. I bought a Packers hoodie in my size. It's too small. It was also the largest one they had and it was on sale. I can only think it was a child's size and not an adult, though it looked like an adult...
