I won't be around today

Judy Evans @JudyEv (355931) • Rockingham, Australia 6 Jun

Tonight, we’ll be staying in a cabin near our old home town and attending a memorial service for a friend. The co-owner was a member of our local writing group, and possibly still is. In 2019, he won the Wilbur Smith award for...

The weather threatened

Heather Echola @GardenGerty (164141) • United States 6 Jun

but nothing happened. I put off doing some things because I was sure it was going to rain. Instead, we had a nice day with eventually blue skies. In those skies were big, white, fluffy clouds. I weeded a lot in my front flower...

Fishmomma Its overcast here or as some call it June Gloom where you think rain is coming soon, but living in this area its normally dry. Congrats on the 100%. You had a very busy day.

Believe it or not, these hold the same amount

Judy Evans @JudyEv (355931) • Rockingham, Australia 5 Jun

You can see a small jar and an empty packet in the photo. I should have stood the packet up so you could see it better. Both the packet and the jar contain the same amount, which surprised me as the packet looked much smaller....

Fishmomma I have to read the ounces to decide which one to buy. Anytime they are the same price I am going to buy the easy jar. Many stores make it hard to buy the better value.

Jimlos Tatooth @Ineeddentures (4354) 1 Jun

Sitting here waiting for the rain to go off I thought that I would do another post. Our fridge and freezer are full and so are our food cupboards. I can't believe how much food we have in the house just now. There is only 2 of...

Fishmomma Mine are full also. There were many deals and one of my neighbors was going shopping. It was fun to shop with somebody else. I won't need to shop for a long time.

At last, a photo of Dominic

Judy Evans @JudyEv (355931) • Rockingham, Australia 2 Jun

We arrived home from our house-sit just a few hours ago. I’m going to make some biscuits (cookies) soon but thought I’d put up a post first. The photo shows Dominic, one of the two cats we were in charge of, if you can call it...

Alexa is learning other things.

marguicha @marguicha (227389) • Chile 2 Jun

As I have been more in bed since I fell, Alexa has had to learn to do other things. The first things Alexa learned was to tell me what time it was and what was the day of the week. It also sang for me whatever I wanted to...

Should I Look For my Husband?

paigea @paigea (36102) • Canada 2 Jun

Hubby wandered out to the garden more than an hour ago. I thought he was taking a little look at what's up and would be outside for a few minutes. It's easy to notice things that need to be done and get busy for...

Fishmomma I can understand spending hours in the garden as it happens to me when I'm determined to finish the project. Right now am trying to decide what else to plant this year, as have several places without anything in the planters.

Amber @AmbiePam (99163) • United States 28 May

Okay, So I'm MOSTLY Following Orders

Jim Bauer @porwest (100841) • United States 25 May

I try as best as I can to follow doctor's orders. On my last visit he told me my cholesterol was very slightly elevated and to refrain from eating as much pork. Of course, pork is a staple in our house. So, I have followed his...

Be Honest, Would you have stopped?

Baconstripsxxx @BACONSTRIPSXXX (15074) • Torrington, Connecticut 28 May

My son counted over 300 cars that passed us today as we were fixing a flat tire in the pouring rain. There was ONE saintly person who stopped. I don’t think 1 in 300 is a very good participation rate. I wonder what goes through...

Fishmomma I don't drive, so the only way somebody will need my help if if they are at my house or I'm a passenger in their car. I can change a tire just haven't done it in a lot of years.

Fishmomma I love to plant and grow several things in my yard including potatoes, strawberries, blueberries and soon will be adding something else. I'm not sure what as considering melons, tomatoes and pumpkins. I have room only for 1 kind of plant.

We Had Such a Good Thing Going Last Summer....

celticeagle @celticeagle (175748) • Boise, Idaho 24 May

It's getting hot and my grandson and I had a great fan system set up last summer. We had two fans on the stairs that cooled the air and sent it up to the upstairs. It made it so much cooler up here. I didn't have to have the air...

Now that's what I call a truck!

Judy Evans @JudyEv (355931) • Rockingham, Australia 24 May

On our two days away with the motor-home, we were heading into mining country and went past some very big earthworks. On many of our country roads, there are truck bays at intervals. I don’t know what they’re called in your...

Would you try this limited edition?

Amber @AmbiePam (99163) • United States 25 May

I have been seeing a lot of limited editions lately, and this one caught my eye. I wouldn’t try it myself, would you? I also saw Coca Cola Oreos, but that didn’t even tempt me.

Fishmomma I wouldn't try it, but know many people that try new foods when they are available. No soda is in this house, as drink water, tea or lemonade.

Judy Evans @JudyEv (355931) • Rockingham, Australia 17 May

We and Vince’s brother went to visit the remaining brother and his wife. The older brother turned 81 a day or two ago and in the last year or so, has suddenly become very old and frail. He was always the ‘project manager’ for our...

My spring onions garden

Erly Maglangit @cacay1 (84914) • Cagayan De Oro, Philippines 17 May

I planted these spring onions in a small empty sack last week. I bought spring onions and cut them, 2 inches from the roots to preserve the top for spinach salad or for a boiled fish with ginger. I noticed that after a week, they...
