Do you have a cheerleader?

Amber @AmbiePam (100454) • United States 7h

This is my Aunt Lana. This photo was taken a few months ago on her 80th birthday. Her daughter threw a party for her (only aunts and girl cousins/nieces) with the theme of Lana’s youth, the sock hop. (The shoes were a gift from...

Respecting the Pain

Amber @AmbiePam (100454) • United States 14 Jul

I’m not a psychologist nor would I pretend to be. However, I remember reading a book about this in my twenties, and over the years it has popped into my head. It’s about minimizing or dismissing someone else’s problems or pain. I...

How did you feel about the outdoors as a child?

Amber @AmbiePam (100454) • United States 13 Jul

As a child you couldn’t keep me indoors….until summer came. Constant 100+ (F) temperatures will take it out of a little girl who takes after her mama when it comes to heat tolerance. As I became a teenager I liked the outdoors...

Pumpkin spice is already back?

Amber @AmbiePam (100454) • United States 12 Jul

I am already seeing pumpkin spice products in stores and restaurants. I received these dog treats to review, and was amused that companies even passed down the pumpkin spice tradition to dogs. And while my dog, Sadie, did not care...

Do you ever wish we didn’t need to eat?

Amber @AmbiePam (100454) • United States 11 Jul

I don’t want to eat anything, as not a single food item sounds good to me. But I take medicine that requires food, and I don’t want to have zero energy, so I found something to eat. The past few days I was thinking while I’m...

Where does she get this?

Amber @AmbiePam (100454) • United States 8 Jul

My sister’s three kids are homeschooled, but that’s not a big deal because before my sister was married she was a teacher (high school). She teaches every subject, including Spanish (Hudson can now count to 20 in Spanish), but she...

A story I just learned about my mother.

Amber @AmbiePam (100454) • United States 7 Jul

A Mylotter once asked me to post more about my mom, but I haven’t too much, and since I’m low on post ideas I thought I would share this one. I just found out about it last year (May 4th it was 10 years since she died at 55)....

Happy Birthday

Amber @AmbiePam (100454) • United States 6 Jul

I can’t believe Amyra (my niece) is fourteen today. One of the presents I sent her was a nail kit with many different colors of nail polishes, nail gems, nail stickers, and the like. She was so excited to get to paint her nails in...

How many people do you know that can keep quiet?

Amber @AmbiePam (100454) • United States 5 Jul

There are people who have to know everything. If there is a secret, they feel the need to know it. Sometimes they try to disguise it with concern, when all they really are is nosy. Would it kill them to be unaware of just one...

Do you like your phone?

Amber @AmbiePam (100454) • United States 3 Jul

I’m really happy with my phone. Before I had a smartphone, I didn’t know what I was missing. It’s an iPhone X, and it was brand new 4 years ago for only $200. Everybody in my family was able to get that one for that price. I don’t...

What is the last thing you sold?

Amber @AmbiePam (100454) • United States 2 Jul

I was trying to think of which sites would be best to sell certain things, and I think I decided on eBay. I don’t have a lot to sell, but I think a few things might make money. The last thing I sold (not online) were these calf...

Plans for the Fourth of July?

Amber @AmbiePam (100454) • United States 30 Jun

Americans or non Americans, what are your plans for the Fourth of July? Some of you may remember me talking about how my dad’s family gets together at a “resort”. It hasn’t been nice in about 20 years, but the aunts (dad’s 6...

How long do you let someone live with you for free?

Amber @AmbiePam (100454) • United States 29 Jun

So say you are letting someone live with you for free because their circumstances aren’t the best (no, not me). They have a nice RV, but they can’t seem to sell it. You let them live there, thinking it is temporary as they say...

Brisket Pizza

Amber @AmbiePam (100454) • United States 28 Jun

Oh, this pizza is so good. A friend of mine was over, and we were talking about best places for pizza. I said Casey’s, and their brisket pizza. Who shows up a few hours later with brisket pizza? Yep! And it is so good! Anyone up...

First Driving Lesson (Yours?)

Amber @AmbiePam (100454) • United States 27 Jun

Amyra was excited about her first “driving” lesson. That consisted of sitting in their Prius in the almost empty church parking lot going over what all the buttons, levers, and parts of the car were for. So, no actual driving....

They ran into her birth mother.

Amber @AmbiePam (100454) • United States 26 Jun

So you guys know my two nieces and nephew are adopted. Some of you may remember how the youngest, Annelyn (5), came to be adopted. Her birth mother poured boiling water on the lower half of Annelyn’s body, and was taken away. What...

Gift Results

Amber @AmbiePam (100454) • United States 25 Jun

For Christmas this last year I got my stepmom an advent calendar of seeds (she’s an avid gardener). She sent me pictures the other day of some of the results. I thought they looked so pretty. I’ll post the other one she sent some...

How They Escaped

Amber @AmbiePam (100454) • United States 24 Jun

I think I mentioned to one person on Mylot last week that my cousin was stuck in Israel. The details on how he got out are just crazy to me. I’ll try to keep this short. He and his wife were asked to come to Israel by some...

It’s About That Time of Year Again

Amber @AmbiePam (100454) • United States 23 Jun

Yes, fireworks. July 4th (Independence Day) and New Year’s Eve are the Christmas to fireworks stores or stands. Never mind it is illegal to set them off in city limits; you can still buy them. Police and firemen are always so busy...

What a party!

Amber @AmbiePam (100454) • United States 21 Jun

I did not expect the amount of people at my dad’s birthday party…274 people showed up. It seems all the “try” people actually came, and one guy who came told me he only found out about it an hour prior, from his daughter. It was...
