Eliza and Howard were the parents of seven children - four boys and three girls. Their oldest, Leroy, died when he was three months old. I do not know the cause. George lived to be 67. Carl, the fifth born, died of diphtheria one...

Do You Have A Right To Dictate What Words Others Use?

Chellé Susann @Chellezhere (10292) • United States 13 Aug

Nope. That is where you are wrong. You may not like the word "retarded," but it is a legitimate medical term, so as long as you or your loved one are not the subjects, it's none of your business how someone else refers to...

My upstairs neighbor, who has all her original parts (i.e., teeth, hips, knees, etc.), will be ninety-seven soon. Her eldest daughter turns seventy-nine today, and her youngest turned sixty-eight two weeks ago. Aileen does almost...

I Dodged A Bullet Today

Chellé Susann @Chellezhere (10292) • United States 12 Aug

It is 7:46 a.m. EST, and I have already taken Henry (cat) outside for his little walk and walked two miles myself. My walk started with a bit of a snag, though. It was so bright out that even with my sunglasses on; I was totally...

Does This Make Me Queen?

Chellé Susann @Chellezhere (10292) • United States 10 Aug

The movie, Bohemian Rhapsody aired back-to-back on some TV channel this past weekend, so I watched it again and again. That led me to spend most of the past few days listening to Queen, and today, I looked at Farouk...

So Much Done With So Little Sleep

Chellé Susann @Chellezhere (10292) • United States 9 Aug

After posting my last discussion, I went to bed but was still wide awake a few hours later. I didn’t get to sleep until about 5:00 a.m. Then, hammering woke me up three hours later. The installers were securing the carpet...

The Heatwave Is Almost Over

Chellé Susann @Chellezhere (10292) • United States 9 Aug

Have you ever heard of Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD)? Most people affected by it experience bouts during the colder months, but some people experience it when the temperature outside is hot. I am one of those people. Looking...

My Legs Are Almost Healed

Chellé Susann @Chellezhere (10292) • United States 8 Aug

My legs are healing fast. Yesterday, I walked five miles without leaving my apartment building. I did it in 11,243 steps. It has been five years since I could walk that far without pain. Once a vein specialist takes care of the...

I Had An Exciting Weekend

Chellé Susann @Chellezhere (10292) • United States 8 Aug

I planned to purchase some artwork to display in my current apartment, but I put the search art on the back burner. I wanted to finish paying for my furniture first. Then, while I was walking on Saturday, three one-of-a-kind...

Be Careful Who You Are Gloating To

Chellé Susann @Chellezhere (10292) • United States 1 Aug

I don’t know about the rest of you, but I was yesterday years old when I learned the Rock ‘n roll musician Bill Haley was raised in and was living in Greater-Philadelphia when he and his Comets hit it big. Reading that reminded me...

My Limber Knees

Chellé Susann @Chellezhere (10292) • United States 30 Jul

It has been nine days since my lipoma removal surgery. I can now climb stairs like a pro (instead of sideways) and crouch like a baseball catcher. Soon I will sit like a yogi again. My neighbors seem amazed and are asking for my...

Where Do You Put Your Stuffing?

Chellé Susann @Chellezhere (10292) • United States 22 Jul

Last night, I was thinking about dressing. No. I was not naked but looking down at the bandages around my knees. And I majored in English language and literature, so I understand most of its definitions, but there is still one...

Regaining My Mobility

Chellé Susann @Chellezhere (10292) • United States 21 Jul

I had my bilateral lipoma surgery today. Besides the lengthy (two-hour) wait to be taken to the operating room (and the two hours it took for the operation and recovery), all went well. After a short wheelchair ride to my...

My TV Won't Shut Up

Chellé Susann @Chellezhere (10292) • United States 20 Jul

My cousin called last night, so I clicked the mute button on my TV remote and immediately knew something was wrong. The audio didn't budge. I used to work for cable companies and know how to troubleshoot. I needed a new remote,...

I Found Some Much-Needed Relief Today

Chellé Susann @Chellezhere (10292) • United States 16 Jul

As my regular followers know, a year and a half ago, I weighed a whopping 290-Lbs (131 kg), and by May, I had lost 62-Lbs without dieting. I lost some weight in 2021 by getting away from stressors and walking (everywhere because...

Making Good Use of Furniture

I clicked on Discussions w/No Response to seek out some to respond to but found myself writing a discussion instead because one title included the word boob tube, and it made me wonder what English language students must think...

I have a three-part question for you. Have you ever seen the TV series The Goldbergs? Do you think Richard Kind would be a good fit for that show? If so, why do you think he would fit in with a group of people in a place...

Yesterday, I went to my primary care physician's office for a pre-OP clearance and EKG in preparation for my lipoma surgery next Thursday. All went well. That means I will go to the hospital for a few minutes for pre-admission...

People With the Capacity For Pregnancy

Chellé Susann @Chellezhere (10292) • United States 13 Jul

For many years, women fought for the right to do many things. And the democratic party was behind them all the way. But now, it seems the democratic party wants to disregard all that and ignore women altogether. Yes, we fought...
