This is how you tell my age. I hate to break the news to you, but this month, on my list, you will not see a tribute to Val Kilmer, who passed away last year. That’s no knock on him or his talent, but I just can’t articulate...

Did the US really invade Venezuela last night and capture their President and his wife? I have seen this on several news sources but find it kind of hard to believe. I have to head to Guitar Center soon, so I'll have to do my...

Ali Canary @TheHorse honestly at this point, I'm okay if he dies first, as long as it's really soon.

Ali Canary I'm familiar with another of her songs, "I Can't Give You Anything but Love". She was a fascinating person.

We didn’t celebrate New Year until today, January 3rd, and honestly, it was low-key perfect. My siblings, our spouses, the kids, and even the dogs were all there. The house stayed loud—kids running around, dogs underfoot,...

I bought a new tomato plant a few weeks back. My first one has a second crop of fruit with about 9 more tomatoes just starting to ripen. This bush is a different variety but now has two tiny tomatoes on it. One is near the bottom...

Ali Canary I spotted them! Fun fact about growing 'maters: my dad was color-blind, so he was unable to determine when the tomatoes in his garden had ripened. Fortunately, he had a sharp-eyed kid (me) to help him with that!

The photo is Vince’s. My camera couldn’t compete with the street lights but Vin managed to dodge them somehow. As Amber (@AmbiePam) stated, it’s called a ‘wolf moon’. It seems this name is given to the full first moon of the year...

Ali Canary Sometimes I get the urge to do stuff in the middle of the night, but I usually just get on the computer so as not to disturb the hubster. He can actually sleep through the night, can you imagine?

75 days until spring. Cousin #3 came over and worked for 2 hours; and then cousin #2 came over and dried her clothes. It was nice to have company. I have been spending a lot of time on my new smartphone. I can do a lot of...

Ali Canary We had our usual Saturday night pizza! I've had naught so far today but hot chocolate, but that hit the spot. An "appointment offer" sounds a little weird to me. Possible scam?

Having an emergency fund is very important because you never know life is going to throw at you. Job loss, major illness, car or home repair, apartment eviction, etc. The benchmark is that you're supposed to have 3-6 months of...

Ali Canary I'm very thankful that I did have money put aside, in a PayPal savings account with a much better yield than my banks would give me. It has come in handy since I have been unemployed.

Pretty surprised me when she said she wanted to add a bidet to our toilet. I've never used one or seen one in any in the homes we've been in. I told her that was fine but I was a bit concerned about using cold water for it......

Americans and Europeans tend to pronounce words differently. I am told that folks in the UK tend to pronounce this word as "CA-rib-BE-an" where Americans say "Ca-RIB-be-an". But I am also told the exact opposite, as well. With...

Ali Canary @LadyDuck same with us. I do wonder what it would have been like, but I have two older sisters, and one had three kids who have all had kids, so we do get to enjoy their pictures and posts on social media.
