Just how many times have you been tested for Covid?

Amber @AmbiePam (112502) • United States 7 Feb

This occurred to me when @snowy22315 just posted about Covid tests expiring. It made me think of the only time I got an official (at least I think the only time) Covid test was September 2025 when the doctor wanted me to go to...

TaxiLady I took a test this past December when Tom was in the hospital. They tested him and said he had it, but didn't give him anything except Musinex. He didn't have any symptoms. I did a home test, but wasn't sick and it came out Negative. Back in 2024 at the ER...

There was an offer on fish fingers during the week in a local supermarket. I haven’t had fish fingers in years and I thought I would get a pack. I was going to have them with chips, but then Mom said why don’t you have a fish...

TaxiLady I used to eat Fish Sticks on a bun with Mayo and some potato chips. Haven't eaten them in years. We have a lot of Fresh Fish here so no need for frozen fish.

Did You Know This...?

celticeagle @celticeagle (185375) • Boise, Idaho 7 Feb

I don't have heart disease in my family, but I wonder if there are some out there in Mylotland that do. There is new research showing that high levels of Niacin (Vitamin B3) is being linked to an increased risk of heart disease....

TaxiLady Have not heard that. I have heart problems, but I do not take B3 or Complex. I take a multi-vitamin and has very little Vit B3. But I DO eat Bread and Oatmeal. Most of my problem is from collesterol.

George and I just got up and it's 39 out. Feels like 30. We have a couple nights of hard freezes with one night getting as low as 23 with a windchill in the teens. I know most of you in the Northern states have been dealing with...

TaxiLady It got down to 28° up here in the Panhandle. It is 10:16am and 37°. I am hoping Buddy will forgive me for not braving the cold and feeding him. He will just have to wait until it hits atleast 45°

TaxiLady I saw the moon tonight and it was like a huge spotlight. Tried to get a picture, but my phone is old so didn't do very good. Trying to get a camera soon.

Stacey @xstitcher (37977) • Petaluma, California 3 Jan

I went to the website of my phone provider, and chatted with someone. Evidently, because I ordered a new SIM card, the old one was turned off. My new SIM card, I was told, will arrive in 7-10 days. I guess when I...

Good morning.

Kayla Tsukino @kaylachan (83063) • Daytona Beach, Florida 18 Dec

I thought I'd hop on. Today might be action-packed. I have laundry to do, it might rain, and we have plans to pick up what we couldn't get at the store. George taxed himself out the other day, because he spent about an hour in...

TaxiLady Nice of them to mow your yard for you. Tom mows the lady next door's front yard. Her backyard is just too much for Tom to do as there are places where there are pavers and the grass has grown over them. He is scared it will ruin his riding mower.

How often do you check your bank balance?

snowy @snowy22315 (202838) • United States 17 Dec

I don't mean the mylot bank, but the real bank. I would say I check mine every 3 or 4 days to make sure nothing fishy is going on. I also check when I know deposits are going in. I check paypal though typically every other day or...

Just as I expected, we gt a handful of kids.

Kayla Tsukino @kaylachan (83063) • Daytona Beach, Florida 31 Oct

Turned out to be a good call buying the 150 pice bag of candy. We got five or six kids today which was about what I'd expected. Our street is dimly lit, our house being the bright spot in the dark. I'm sure there were parties and...

Keep something for seven years…

Fleur @Fleura (33913) • United Kingdom 17 Oct

Mail...

Stacey @xstitcher (37977) • Petaluma, California 6 Oct

TaxiLady I never get bills in the mail..only in email. I DO get mail from my insurance that tells me how much they paid for my medications. Tom received medications from the VA. Hoping I get my $5 tomorrow from the survey company.

Poor Man's Spanish Rice

Jim Bauer @porwest (111868) • United States 6 Oct

I love Spanish rice, but when I eat it, it's hardly ever Spanish rice in the traditional sense. But what I make is still very good, and now I am resorting to calling it Poor Man's Spanish Rice. Okay. I'm not poor. But I do...

TaxiLady I learned to make Spanish Rice from my ex Mother-in-law in Mexico. You put diced onions and garlic in a skillet with oil. Saute them, then add fresh cut tomatoes. Put in rice and stir it in that mixture for a minute or so then add hot water. Take 2 Chicken...

You're a Jerk

Jim Bauer @porwest (111868) • United States 25 Sep

That's what someone said to me the other day when I had stopped at Walmart. "You're a jerk." Now, I grant you, sometimes I can be. Or I just speak my mind, and someone thinks that even if it's not true. For some, of...
