Sonja Rae @SonjaRae (14735) • United States 17 Sep

Hello everyone from Tulsa, Oklahoma. It is Saturday currently 2:03 PM. Our temperatures have jumped back up into the 90s and will remain that way for the week ahead. I was hoping that we were showing signs of the approach of fall...

Chellé Happy Birthday to all! October 4th was my paternal grandparents' wedding anniversary. They were from Jones and Harrah, Oklahoma County, Oklahoma. I have relatives in Tulsa, too.

Here are the pics of the new place that I had said I would take. I was over there a while ago, vacuuming out the heater vents..it seems that was not done. Firstly, I appreciate that it is ground floor. I am tired of stairs all...

Pig In The Garden Lunch

CarolDM @CarolDM (192260) • United States 16 Sep

My neighbor called earlier and asked me to ride along as she had a few errands to get done. So I did. Always fun to spend time with her. We both had errands to take care of. I had a few groceries to pick up. And she had crafting...

Chellé I'm glad you got to go out, get some errand done, and visit with your friend at the same time. It is good to have that quality time. I would not have been to eat that either. I would have eaten the lettuce, bacon, cheddar cheese, cucumbers, tomatoes, and...

Non-Hit Hits Top Ten: You Can’t Always Get What You Want (#10)

Four Walls @FourWalls (47209) • United States 16 Sep

Here we go, with the thoroughly confusing list of favorite songs that weren’t U.S. hits — that is, they didn’t make the Billboard top 40. They are, however, well-known despite not being a “hit” in the “traditional”...

Chellé One day in college, while stone cold sober, a group of us stopped at a restaurant for lunch. Feeling silly, I opened the trifold menu, sat up straight, and sang, "I saw her today at the reception - a glass of wine in her hand," and everybody around me lost...

Cleaning out my pantry

CRAFTY @sharon6345 (321516) • United States 14 Sep

There are foods I am not going to eat due to pain issues. The pain is getting better so I don't want to risk it at all. I am putting them on sale for .50 cents a can. The dates are all good and someone on a tight...

Chellé Gout changes a lot for those who have it. My maternal grandfather had it, and mom did toward the end of her life. My next-door neighbor complains about her gout all the time, and I remind her to double-check her food intake.

Family!

Lydia CT @queenlyd (883) • Philippines 12 Sep

A home is a place where love abides, peace and contentment dwell. A church may also be considered a family where fellowship among believers prevails. In families, love, trust, contentment among members must be considered. A...

Grocery shopping.

Judy Story @jstory07 (124645) • Roseburg, Oregon 13 Sep

Never go grocery shopping when you are hungry. That is why we go to the store after we have eaten a meal or a treat. Than we can shop on a full tummy. Today we went to the store and we were just looking at stuff and walking...

Rainy Tuesday

Juliaacv @Juliaacv (70129) • Canada 13 Sep

I woke to the rain teaming down heavily. It looks like an autumn rain, cool and heavy. Not heavy enough to cause any flooding, but it did rain for about an hour at a steady rate. It is letting up now, but still coming down. I...

Chellé It is rainy here as well (two and a half hours south of Ontario), and it also looks like a cool autumn rain. It is not heavy at the moment, though. As a US citizen, what I am most interested in is how many countries stay with the Commonwealth once mourning...

Does anyone else here sell on eBay?

Fleur @Fleura (21636) • United Kingdom 13 Sep

I have sold odds and ends on eBay for several years now. Things that I know a charity shop would never bother with (or simply couldn’t take) but that I’m sure someone out there must want. All kinds of things from vintage vacuum...

Chellé I have not, but Whozeewhatzit sells coins and stamps, and has been doing it on eBay since 1995. Although I have not spoken to him since I moved out in June, when I was still living with him, he constantly complained that sales were down. I think some of what...

One 9/11 memory

NJ Chicaa @NJChicaa (108665) • United States 11 Sep

Chellé I grew up an hour and a half from the World Trade Center and have been in both towers more than once. I do not like the look of the new tower. It's ugly, and it breaks my heart seeing the skyline that way.

Just Found The Neatest Thing for Birding

OceanTiara @RebeccasFarm (73897) • United States 11 Sep

Chellé There are no migration alerts for my current village. The alert for Ryan's area is high 16,000 birds/km/night. My paternal grandfather's hometown of Harrah, Oklahoma is also high 24,000 birds/km/night.
