Juliaacv congratulations. You won't need a tablet if you have a smartphone as you can use a mobile browser to go online. It is super convenient and handy, and a space saver also. Yesterday, I wasn't feeling well, and my husband made us chicken and dumpling for supper.

Bright and sunny outside today. I may have to stop using my outlook mail. Microsoft is threatening me, saying I went over my storage limit for email. I have a bad habit of not deleting emails, and I get lots. They want to charge...

Juliaacv We had a grey day, although the sun did come out for a bit now and again. The extreme cold has passed, which is good. There are flurries right now, but if the temperatures rise, that will change to rain, and we may end up having a green Christmas afterall. I...

I got a survey today about bugs, and I immediately exited the survey. I cannot do bug surveys anymore. One of my neighbors had bed bugs. The inspection showed no one else in the building did, but I fogged my apartment anyway...

Juliaacv @AmbiePam We had to change alot of our habits. In the summer, we had a tendancy to keep the garage doors (that you drive the car into) open a couple of feet just allow for fresh air to come in, but that was an invitation to the moles, so we had to remind...

I had an elderly relative who used to always refer to Monday as ''Blue Monday'' and seemed to dread Mondays in general. She had a stressful job for years; I think that made her dread the beginning of the week. I thought of her...

Juliaacv Mondays don't really bother me. The true Blue Monday is on the third Monday of January here in Canada. It is considered that because it is the 'quiet time' between the holidays and when credit card bills begin to become due. There is a really easy way to avoid...

Juliaacv Bugs bug me too, those and snakes. I cannot think nor read or look at anything pertaining to them. I know that some pests can be neighbourhood related. We had a neighbour across the road from us at our last place, and he had moles. He must have disturbed their...

Happy Monday Everyone! it's a sunny morning with temperatures just above freezing. There's a chance of some sort of snowy mix overnight but looks like it won't amount to anything. (fingers crossed) I'm sitting here with my...

90 days until spring. We had nice weather for about a day. Now it's cold again. It looks like Christmas won't be a white one; and that's OK with me. It's going to warm up again. Breakfast - Oatmeal nut bar Lunch - Meals on...

Juliaacv @LindaOHio I sleep every afternoon on the weekends, and do very little when I am up. I just do not have the energy. I am not good at staying hydrated, I drink lots of milk, but not water.

Juliaacv @DaddyEvil No, we haven't watched any of those, but considering that my hubby's football team is basically done for the season, and the Christmas shows will soon end, that opens up another option for TV watching.

Juliaacv @RasmaSandra They just really cannot get over the green and the mean look he has, I think that they are too young to understand the comedy that JC provides.

Juliaacv @RasmaSandra Yes, my husband has played it for them. It seems that they love Jingle Bells and not much else for Christmas songs. They really dislike Rudolph if you can imagine.

Juliaacv You're so smart to spend some quality alone time with your Dad. I am exhausted today, still the bronchitis, so much so that I didn't feel that I had it in me to make our Sunday brunch. We ate out, and then did a few errands, when I got home I had a long rest,...

Juliaacv @LadyDuck Hopefully they can get that time off from work. He attended the University of Victoria and wants to show us the area that he feels that he knows so well. It is a good idea to get the girls on a plane at their age, to get them used to it, too bad it...

Juliaacv I have never seen anything like this. I hope that she took photos and submitted them to the company. I would not have any trust in buying canned goods from that company going forward.
