It's Friday Morning!

Jordan Lader @JordanLader (7422) • Sparta, Tennessee 19 Jun

I'm still not okay. I am far from okay but I'm moving and getting things done. I am sitting this morning at my beautiful desk that my husband came home and put together for me. It's just an ordinary desk, no frills or thrills...

Baconstripsxxx It sounds like you’re holding a lot together right now. Even if you’re “not okay,” you’re still building things your space, your future, your skills, your business, your connections. That matters.

Another successful shopping trip to Sharp Shopper

snowy @snowy22315 (209405) • United States 19 Jun

So, of course I can't resist writing about my Sharp Shopper bargains. This month's venture was very good. I got Papa Nicholas Hawaiian Island coffee which they sell at Walmart for 11.38 for 3.99. It is delicious too, very smooth....

Baconstripsxxx The popcorn and cat treats especially sound like amazing deals too. It’s funny how a deal at one store feels great until you find it for a fraction of the price somewhere else ??

Good afternoon myLot

NJ Chicaa @NJChicaa (127212) • United States 19 Jun

Hello everyone. I hope your day is going well. It is 80 degrees F and sunny here at the Jersey Shore. I AM OFFICIALLY ON SUMMER VACATION! Woohoo! As expected--today was crazy. The principal (who is retiring)...

Baconstripsxxx That final-day energy always has a different feel to it, and the principal’s sendoff with the band and students lining the halls sounds like a really memorable way for him to go out. Retirement and the last day of school all rolled into one makes for a big...

Light traveller

Karen Jade @k_krist (216) • Denmark 8 Jun

I used to envy people who travel light, like they only bring minimal stuff. Do you travel light? When you travel or go out for the day, do you pack light, or do you bring an extra bag filled with things you might need but never...

Considering Making The Big Move!

Baconstripsxxx @BACONSTRIPSXXX (18210) • Torrington, Connecticut 17 Jun

So recently I was offered a Job promotion for roughly around 130k a year but the only thing is that the job is 700 miles down south in North Carolina. I always wanted to move down south for better weather and a way less expensive...

Boats without sailors

Judy Evans @JudyEv (382929) • Rockingham, Australia 10 Jun

Probably it’s not news that Iran shot down an American Army AH-64 Apache attack helicopter recently. The two airmen were rescued. After floating for about two hours, the men were picked up by a boat then hoisted to a helicopter....

Baconstripsxxx That really is remarkable. I had heard about the Apache incident, but I didn’t know the rescue itself involved a drone boat. That’s the part that really stands out to me.

I was at a music fest last Friday at my sons' school. I was literally so tired and feeling sick and that I was planning not to go. But in the morning my eldest son told me that he's gonna play the keyboards. So to my excitement to...

The drawbacks of working outdoors

Fleur @Fleura (35205) • United Kingdom 17 Jun

Of course there are some drawbacks of working in the garden. If it rains, for example, I’m only under the leaves of the grapevine which cast pleasant shade but don’t keep off the rain. Then there are gusts of wind which are a...

Baconstripsxxx I had to smile at the part about jumping up to look at things or getting distracted by birds and spiders. That’s exactly the kind of distraction that makes working in a garden so appealing in the first place. It’s hard to stay focused when there’s so much life...

It is Sunday and no matter your religious perspective Jesus is The Truth

Terminator #36 @mememine (36) • Vietnam 17 May

There is simply no comparison. Oh sure you can TRY to compare other religious figures to Jesus but try is all you can do. Because everything else is false. Only Jesus was born of a woman still pure. Not even yet a woman by our...

Well, that didn't work out as planned.

Marie Coyle @MarieCoyle (59615) 16 Jun

Like many people, I pay some bills online. The power bill is one of those. I've done that for a long time now--I could have it automatically taken out, but they don't always honor the day you request it to come out of your...
