Small Dog Wind Advisory

Amber @AmbiePam (108231) • United States 11h

“Oklahoma, where the wind comes sweepin’ down the plain”… Some of you might be familiar with the lyric of that song…And yes, the wind does come sweeping down that plain. I could hear the windows rattling this morning, and...

What do you know about pawn shops?

Amber @AmbiePam (108231) • United States 17 Dec

Can you tell me what you know about them? I’ve never set foot in one, and if I did pawn something I wouldn’t be trying to get it back. Have any of you ever used them?

Did you like Christmas stockings?

Amber @AmbiePam (108231) • United States 17 Dec

My great grandparents and maternal grandparents used to have Christmas stockings for us kids, and I got way more excited about the contents of the stockings than the actual presents. Sure, it had candy, but other little things...

What do you like best about your smartphone?

Amber @AmbiePam (108231) • United States 16 Dec

I know a few of you don’t have one, and obviously, you’re doing fine without one. I just like that I can do so much with it. I don’t use anything, but my phone. So far, I haven’t lost it either. A desktop was my...

Former Christmas Traditions

Amber @AmbiePam (108231) • United States 16 Dec

Is there something you or your family used to do during the Christmas season, but don’t anymore? My first thought was how when I was a child, we had four Christmas celebrations: my maternal great grandparents, my grandparents on...

Are you a main dish person, or all about the sides?

Amber @AmbiePam (108231) • United States 15 Dec

I love a good potluck. The Christmas gathering with my dad’s side of the family is always ham, pulled pork, ribs, turkey, and chicken and dumplings. But I could live without the entrees. Give me side dishes all day: dressing...

The Unknown Cold/Allergy Medicine

Amber @AmbiePam (108231) • United States 15 Dec

It didn’t kill me! You might remember one of the poll/survey sites asked to do a product test to try an allergy medication in exchange for $40. It was easy as pie, and best of all, it seemed to have worked. I think they wanted...

Do you dry clean anything?

Amber @AmbiePam (108231) • United States 14 Dec

I had gotten a gorgeous sheepskin rug (for free), and I put it down for three days when unexpected disaster struck. Yes, my stomach contents emptied (I’m fine, I promise). I briefly considered dry cleaning, but wasn’t sure they...

I’m Blessed

Amber @AmbiePam (108231) • United States 13 Dec

I was blessed by two particular people this past week, and although I know they wouldn’t want thanks, I wish I could bless them. They helped me in different ways, and encouraged me greatly. Have you been blessed by anything or...

Question About a Review

Amber @AmbiePam (108231) • United States 12 Dec

So I went to review a candle, and the candle smelled amazing, but the top of the box was ripped halfway off. It did not affect the candle at all, and I got the candle free to review. However, it is a $110 candle. They solely want...

Garage/Yard Sales

Amber @AmbiePam (108231) • United States 12 Dec

I know, it’s not garage sale weather in most of the United States, but I sure do want to have one when it is. I think I could make a decent amount of grocery money if I could just find a place to have one. My dad has said no on...

Which sounds better?

Amber @AmbiePam (108231) • United States 11 Dec

So, one of these is going to my 87 year old aunt who looks and acts around 65. She still has her own garden, still does the Tulsa Run every year, and lives by herself (her husband died 10 years ago). Since I still can’t quite find...

What’s on your plate for lunch?

Amber @AmbiePam (108231) • United States 11 Dec

Well, I don’t eat a ton of frozen food, how could I turn down 18g of pot roast protein? Also, I love Dolly Parton. I’ve never seen someone keep their popularity fresh throughout their life. I mean, a year ago, she performed during...

Do you ever find yourself playing with these “toys”?

Amber @AmbiePam (108231) • United States 10 Dec

I’m not sure how long ago sensory toys became popular, but I know they are very popular with autistic children and those with sensitivities to sights and sounds. The one pictured is a magnetic cube that can morph into more than 70...

Hummingbird Haven

Amber @AmbiePam (108231) • United States 9 Dec

My dad’s wife loves hummingbirds, and she made her backyard a haven for birds, and especially loves the hummingbirds. This is a picture of the present I got my stepmom for Christmas, and it was fortunate I found hummingbird (with...

One of Those Days

Amber @AmbiePam (108231) • United States 9 Dec

We all have some of those blah days where you just don’t feel right, and the day starts off wrong. I guess today is one of those days. I need to get out to get a few groceries, but I’m not sure I should be driving. So, I settled...

The Present I’m Excited About

Amber @AmbiePam (108231) • United States 8 Dec

I know I shouldn’t expect too much of people’s reaction when they get their Christmas presents, but I do hope my sister likes her present. She’s a big fan of Sleeping Beauty (Princess Aurora) and also a fan of classical music....

Chili Ingredient Debate

Amber @AmbiePam (108231) • United States 7 Dec

I’m not a chili with beans, eater. However, that doesn’t mean I won’t eat it with the beans. But, I hate chili made with sausage instead of hamburger meat. My stepmom recently made her yummy chili with sausage, and I choked it...

What are you picky about?

Amber @AmbiePam (108231) • United States 6 Dec

I am picky about my lotion. I have a morning moisturizer, a nighttime moisturizer (CeraVe), and then body lotion (pictured). Winter, of course, is the hardest on my skin because of how dry everything gets. I remember, years ago,...

Have you gone to see the Christmas lights yet?

Amber @AmbiePam (108231) • United States 6 Dec

This is a picture taken at the Tulsa Botanical Gardens the other night when my sister and BIL took their kids. It’s best, apparently, to take kids with eye problems like Hudson’s at dusk to see lights. Not that they don’t go when...
