Peachy Keen

Amber @AmbiePam (97658) • United States 5h

I was wondering how many of you had heard the phrase “peachy keen”. It means something is wonderful, or going well. Someone may ask you how you’re doing, and one replies “peachy keen”. It’s also used to be sarcastic if things are...

Juliaacv I've always heard it as peachy keen and wonderful. My day was hectic and busy today.

It's a party! What would you bring to a mylot party?

snowy @snowy22315 (188499) • United States 29 Apr

This was inspired by @muchtosay about myLot reminding her of a party, and I said yes as well, and everyone is invited. If mylot ever had a real physical party what would you bring? I would bring punch both spiked and regular to...

Hopefully a 'before' photo

Judy Evans @JudyEv (351846) • Rockingham, Australia 29 Apr

The photo shows an area at my niece’s where I intend to plant some vegetable seedlings. Hopefully, at the end of our stay here I’ll be able to show you an ‘after’ photo. There is shade-cloth over the area to keep the fierce...

Trump's first 100 days have been an absolute you-know-what show

NJ Chicaa @NJChicaa (122573) • United States 29 Apr

Wow. I knew it would be bad but I had no idea that it would be *this* disastrous. His poll numbers are in the toilet after the DOGE cuts, threats to Medicaid and Social Security, illegal deportations, his insane tariffs, increased...

Juliaacv There are some Canadians, who feel sorry for the American people. Even the Premiere of Ontario, Doug Ford, has stated that any tariff that he imposes is a tax to the American people. He feels for them, but he is trying to fight fire with fire I suppose. The...

I am Mad at Mother Nature (AGAIN)

celticeagle @celticeagle (173708) • Boise, Idaho 29 Apr

I love a good thunder and lightning storm in the evening. One reason I look forward to spring is for these storms. They are dramatic and exciting. I love them! Well, to date, we have not had one. We've had some rain. Not even much...

Just checked the weather (24°C/75°F). But there's a warning on the site: Squall watch 1:47-10pm alternating with: Severe thunder storm 1:35 - 9pm. It's 2:34 and neither squall nor thunder have manifested yet, and the sun is...

Half Over

Four Walls @FourWalls (74104) • United States 29 Apr

The day is half done. Not just in terms of the time, either. My brother’s surgery went fine. He was in his room, griping that he couldn’t find anything on TV, less than two hours after the surgery started. He’s...

What item out of your reach would you like to try?

Amber @AmbiePam (97658) • United States 29 Apr

I was thinking of all these ridiculously priced items (I saw $100 toothbrush the other day) I’ve seen lately, and was thinking that even if I had the money I would not buy them. However, what if you DID have the money? Besides a...

Juliaacv I have been pondering this for a bit now, but I honestly cannot come up with anything. Not that I have everything by any stretch of the imagination, just that I am very content with what I have.

Amber @AmbiePam (97658) • United States 28 Apr

LindaOH @LindaOHio (187307) • United States 29 Apr

My gastro issues seem to have improved. I don't know if it's because of my diet or if it is hopefully OVER. I may try eating my Meals on Wheels lunch today and see what happens. I'm going to cancel my mammogram again this week....

Tentatively helping

Fleur @Fleura (31545) • United Kingdom 29 Apr

Last week, when we were stuck without a car, my friend kindly added me onto her car insurance so I could borrow her car, as I needed to pick up a lot of things that just weren’t feasible on a bicycle. But she did warn me that her...

Juliaacv That is hilarious. She must have gotten a wet foot from stepping in a puddle and removed the sock and then forgot about it later.

Juliaacv It was a pretty nice day here today too. I hung some of his big and bulky hoodies outside to dry after I washed them. I worked today and then went to vote, and then home to cook supper, been a whirlwind of a day.
