Good morning from another smoky day in Green Bay, Wisconsin. I'll be happy when the wildfires are contained and smoke no longer rules the day and I can open my patio door again. That's my only complaint. Yesterday was a good...

Heather Echola It sounds like you had a very good, except for the air quality. I would love to see that movie.

To no one’s surprise, we have an air quality alert here in the land of the Kentucky Derby. I was wondering why I needed extra albuterol for asthma control yesterday, then I said, “Duh!” I pray the good people in Canada can get...

Whenever I have been in a hotel with room service, I look for the fruit plate. I must have the fruit plate. I won’t waste my money on any kind of room service except those giant plates of fruit. Is there a go to room service...

Heather Echola That sounds wonderful. I have seldom stayed in a hotel and I have never done room service.

At least I think that is the problem. It is kind of like a sinus headache, but not severe, just annoying. I do not want to always be popping pills for all my aches and pains. I had forgotten that I have a couple of varieties of...

Heather Echola You are right. Mint is cooling. Some people will rub mint on their temples and the base of their skull to help with headaches.

Heather Echola Yeah. I usually do caffeine first thing in the morning. I only do aspirin, tylenol, or something in the evenings.

In Wichita, Ks. it reached 100 F today. First time this year. Not quite that high here. Before lunch, at 93 F the experts said "feels like temperature is 115 F". Bob has pretty much slept all day. I may go get him up again. He...

Most of us love seasonal fruits and vegetables. One of the things we have always enjoyed in the summertime is melons. I don't have the room to grow them in my little bitty garden, so I try to watch for sales or farmers, etc....

Heather Echola I got a personal watermelon the week Bob got out of the hospital. I got it at Dollar General and paid $4.99. When I was in Dillons next I could have gotten a big one for that price. I actually find Farmer's Markets to cost more than mass merchandisers.

I don’t know if this is an American thing or not. Most homes here have ceiling fans in every room. I don’t think most apartments do, but houses do. We keep ours on all year round to circulate both the a/c and the furnace. It...

Heather Echola I have two right now. One needs replaced. I also have another to match the replacement to put in the dining room. I would like to have more. Maybe everywhere except the kitchen and bath.
