I took Pretty for her doctor appointment at 4 pm yesterday but had forgotten how fast it gets dark now. I couldn't see highway signs or turns if they weren't lit up. I followed another car's taillights back to Aurora and then...

Ali Canary @DaddyEvil oh goodness, I'm glad you took it well. Could your eyesight benefit from surgery?

Ah-ha! Now we reach another album cut, and someone you don’t normally think of when it comes to instrumental music. There are a couple more coming up soon. Meanwhile, sit back and enjoy…no, get up and exercise! Here’s today’s...

I have no idea why we left at 3:30am just to stop in New Mexico at 1:30pm for the night. Especially, since we couldn’t get into the hotel until 3pm. BUT, the kids are keeping everyone entertained, and I’m keeping quiet when a...

Ali Canary @AmbiePam it's so beautiful, especially at sunset when everything just glows. The Grand Canyon gets all the attention, but the Painted Desert and the Petrified Forest are such cool places, too!

Most of myLot members surely know that "trick-or-treating" is a Halloween tradition in which children go door-to-door and recite the phrase to receive candy. This tradition, called "souling", dates back to the...

Ali Canary @LadyDuck Yes, they do that In Mexico, too. They visit the graves and take marigolds, that's the special flower for it. And then at night they party and dance with big papier-mache skeletons :)

I think I shared that I had been getting into making little collages recently - maybe I shared the first one I made, with the letter M on it? Lately, I've been making wedding-themed collages because I have some little decorative...

Ali Canary Why don't you try? Just cut out some interesting pics and put them together in a fun way. You can design a poster or an album cover for a band you like, or you can use a picture of yourself and make different outfits from catalog pictures, or make a collage...

Ali Canary @AmbiePam are you headed to the Painted Desert? I think that's in Arizona, right? I remember that area. Amazing beauty! It's mind-boggling what an array of landscapes and different sights we have in our own country.

Since I don't know what will happen when my health insurance runs out, I have been going to get vaccinations and checkups. This week, I have my "lady stuff" done - pelvic exam tomorrow and mammogram on Friday. That should do it,...

Ali Canary Thank you! I have the option to go on my husband's health insurance, but he is planning to retire next year, so we will have to figure out something more permanent.

Ali Canary @porwest lol all you want, but I think I follow politics more than you do, or at least non-biased, fact-based politics. Cuomo had run as a Democrat but was primaried. He ran as an Independent and was banking on Islamophobia to defeat Mamdani. He did not....

So most of you’d know I’m trying to sell things I got to review to make some money (bills). Yesterday, I sold a set of luggage and I was so happy! Which brings me to a question about luggage. I have one suitcase, and it’s one I...

Ali Canary @AmbiePam she is a super "Disney Adult"! I have a friend like that. He's a cartoonist who loves to draw Disney characters, as well as his own original ones.
