Inherited Sandals

LK2018 @Letranknight2015 (52516) • Philippines 29 Aug

The other day I saw my aunt cleaning the shoe rack. While I was in charge of folding the empty shoe boxes, they gave me this sandal. They were supposed to give this to their friend who is a priest but they forgot and he was...

Here comes the baking club!

NJ Chicaa @NJChicaa (124447) • United States 29 Aug

Oh boy. I don't know what I was thinking agreeing to be the advisor for the club at work. Yes I like to bake but here on my terms with my timing. At school in a 40 minute time period? Yikes. I didn't even post on the Baking Club...

Shoot me if I buy one more plastic container

NJ Chicaa @NJChicaa (124447) • United States 29 Aug

The head of maintenance showed up here about an hour ago to check out the shelf situation. He thinks it is just a matter of putting new clips in whatever that means. He told me I had to empty the cabinet. Fine. OMFG I found so...

At least half of it is AI

Heather Echola @GardenGerty (165554) • United States 23 Aug

So I have been watching videos about causes and alternative cures for diabetes most of the afternoon. When the videos are well done you almost cannot tell that it is AI. When it is poorly done it is full of contradictions and...

Kitty has a new favorite perch.

The Horse @TheHorse (229914) • Walnut Creek, California 23 Aug

I think it happened because it's hard to get to her food bowl when my front door is open. So she started jumping on and over my Fishman guitar amplifier to get to her "breafast table." Soon, she realized that the amplifier was a...

Good morning myLot

NJ Chicaa @NJChicaa (124447) • United States 24 Aug

Hello everyone. Look who's back! It is 74 degrees F and party cloudy here at the Jersey Shore. The high for today is 81. I'll take it. It has been a week. I'll get around to writing about it at some point I'm sure....

BarBaraPrz It's 23°C/73°F at 11:22am. As you said, "I'll take it". I mean, what else can I do? Now, if only I can get rid of this ugly ad that keeps showing up (ic.html)

I feel a bit like a melted candle

Heather Echola @GardenGerty (165554) • United States 22 Aug

I think that is what happens when you do not stay hydrated. I did not take a water cup to school for the time I was in training. I thought 2 1/2 hrs. would not matter. I would be sitting mostly. No, it turned into four hours and...

BarBaraPrz That's a good analogy. I kinda felt that way when we were having our heat wave. Then we had a couple days of rain, and yesterday was downright chilly but today was a mostly normal summer day at 26°C/79°F.

Music Obituaries: July 2025

Four Walls @FourWalls (78244) • United States 16 Aug

What a rough month. We have them in every walk of life: one month there are a dozen former baseball players who pass away, the next it’s actors, the next it’s writers. July 2025 was a brutal month for musicians, not only in...

Is this a good idea or not?

Fleur @Fleura (32435) • United Kingdom 17 Aug

Supermarkets are under continuous pressure to cut down on plastic use, and they have responded by removing extra layers of packaging and making containers such as milk cartons or lemonade bottles thinner. Now several have...

BarBaraPrz When I'm met with this sillyness, I just peel the plastic back halfway, unless it's just a single serving. Single serve yogurt cups used to come with lids, and were great for saving "just enough" spaghetti sauce, which would then stain the plastic. Now, single...

A story about Van Morrison

Judy Evans @JudyEv (362004) • Rockingham, Australia 17 Aug

Our son told us another story from his double bass playing days. I’m not too sure on the details but he, along with a number of others, were rehearsing for some sort of concert with Van Morrison. Apparently, Van can be a bit...

BarBaraPrz Today started out at 22°C/72°F and raining... heavily. While the rain is much needed and welcome, the ground is so dry most of the rain just bounced off and into drains. And no more rain in the forecast for the rest of the week. At least the temps are supposed...

A funny sign at the monastery

Judy Evans @JudyEv (362004) • Rockingham, Australia 15 Aug

I saw this sign in the New Norcia museum. The St Benedictine monks there had a fully-operating printing press and we were able to walk though the printing area and see the various machines. Type-setting has always intrigued me...

BarBaraPrz When I got up at 7 this morning, I couldn't believe it was only 14°C/57°F... a nice cool change. I had a nap between 9 and 10, and now at 10:30 it's 27°C/80°F, threatening to go up to 30°C/86°F. So, I'm not planning on doing much today, just read I guess.

Bullet holes in a harmonium

Judy Evans @JudyEv (362004) • Rockingham, Australia 14 Aug

Another instrument that I photographed at New Norcia was this harmonium. The information board said that it was donated to the Kalumburu Mission by a grateful German government. In 1932, two German airmen crashed near there. The...
