Having Company

Amber @AmbiePam (112608) • United States 6 Jan

I’m fixing Pineapple Chicken and Rice with black eyed peas. Pimento Arancini (these I’m not making from scratch) as the appetizer is something I never thought I’d do since I never liked pimento cheese. But then I never had these...

Will you get any Valentines Day candy this year?

snowy @snowy22315 (202892) • United States 6 Jan

I think I will buy some. Some for me, and some for my friend..not my friend. I might get him a balloon though. He can share it with Nico..ha, ha. I did give my next door neighbors a New Years card and some tea, so I don't think I...

If You Could Press “Replay” On One Day.

Tendz @Tendz09 (600) 2 Feb

Have you ever thought about a day in your life you’d like to live again, just to feel the happiness or peace all over? I’d choose a day when everything felt calm and easy. No stress, no rush, just enjoying the moment. It’s the...

Vicki, #1 Creek Girl The one that comes to mind was the night our first child was born. So very happy that he was healthy.

Have You Ever Had Shingles?

LooeyVille @LooeyVille (35) • United States 7 Feb

Amber's post about COVID testing made me think of shingles for some reason. I had a friend in his 40's who got shingles from being over-stressed and malnourished while going through a divorce. They were very painful. I took...

Vicki, #1 Creek Girl Both. I had the vaccine, then later got a mild case of shingles. Then years later got two vaccines. No shingles since then. They can be so horrible.

Savannah Guthrie

Amber @AmbiePam (112608) • United States 5 Feb

I haven’t seen anyone really talk about it here. Maybe because it is such a dark story. For those who don’t pay attention to American news, Savannah Guthrie is the anchor of The Today Show, a hugely popular national morning show....

Fans of Cats

Amber @AmbiePam (112608) • United States 5 Feb

I didn’t realize this was a “thing” until I came upon a “whisker catcher” to review. I didn’t know cat owners collected the whiskers that fell off their cats as a keepsake. Is that something a lot of cat owners do?

Vicki, #1 Creek Girl That sounds truly unhinged to me. I love Gracie, but I don't want her whiskers.

Pharmacies

Amber @AmbiePam (112608) • United States 3 Feb

First, if you have zero pharmacies, and you do not need a single medication, my proverbial hat is off to you. I have three pharmacies. One is CVS which has been known to drain the life from me. I have to use them for a certain...

Vicki, #1 Creek Girl I know why Walgreens is going out of business. I shouldn't say this, but I hate CVS. We have a really good local pharmacy and the one at Walmart is good most of the time. I wish you could have just one good close drug store.

I think my magnesium is low again.

Amber @AmbiePam (112608) • United States 3 Feb

Do you remember my trip to the emergency room back in September? It turned out my magnesium was a 1 when it should be a 1.9. I couldn’t stand or walk without help, and was short of breath. I had been throwing up for a long time...

LindaOH @LindaOHio (213659) • United States 2 Feb

Rough Night

Amber @AmbiePam (112608) • United States 2 Feb

I went to bed early last night, but tossed and turned, and finally fell asleep around 3am. I dreamed about the funeral of my friend’s dad, which has not happened yet (he’s on hospice). It’s going to be 62 degrees today (17 C)...

Did anyone watch the Grammys?

Amber @AmbiePam (112608) • United States 2 Feb

I did not, and I never do. In fact, while I’ve seen the Oscars a couple of occasions in my life, I have never watched the Grammys. I guess if you enjoy some (not all) lip synching, barely their clothing, and political comments...

What an adventure

snowy @snowy22315 (202892) • United States 2 Feb

Well, despite it being close to 40 degrees today, it is still treacherous out there. I did manage to escape though and got some groceries, and went out to a restaurant for a change of scenery. However, the roads in this...

She can’t wait to leave Oklahoma.

Amber @AmbiePam (112608) • United States 29 Jan

My sister took care of her entire family last week (with flu B), and amazingly, never got it. It’s a good thing because she is leaving for Mexico (cruise) on Sunday, her 47th birthday. One of her friends is going on a cruise, and...

Vicki, #1 Creek Girl Bless your heart, it's not surprising that you have sleep issues. I sleep okay with a relatively strong sleep aid, but I plan to cut back and hope I still sleep.

Well that was a relief
