Just a Wonderful Day (so far)

Amber @AmbiePam (119324) • United States 6h

I got to go to church this morning, and it was great. They were so many people I had to park on the side of the parking lot, which I normally never have to do. They honored all the high school and college graduates this morning,...

Juliaacv Sounds like it is time to start going to church more often, even if it is just to find out his name.

Have you ever needed to tell someone really bad news, and you just can't manage to get the right words out?

Marie Coyle @MarieCoyle (58186) 22h

That would be me, today. Well, actually, I knew this was coming but didn't want to tell my son. He really doesn't need any more bad news in his life...but here we are, and tonight's the night. The ex's parents live in...

Juliaacv I am sorry that he is not well. I feel for you having to deliver that news, but not all news is good and once you include him your own burden will be lighter.

Another tick for Temu

Judy Evans @JudyEv (380023) • Rockingham, Australia 11h

I’ve written about Vince’s coin collection. We ordered some coin folders from Temu, thinking it would be easier to sell a series of coins if they were displayed nicely. When the folders arrived, and very promptly, we discovered we...

Juliaacv I have not used Temu because they are off-shore, but also because their refund or cancellation policy, generally speaking, is terrible. You did really well with yours, but watch your account in the weeks to come that they don't go in and charge you again.

I guess he wanted to use a plate

Pets can be so funny sometimes. Nico took a few pieces of food out of his dish brought them over to a piece of cardboard on the floor and ate them off of that... It was so silly. I have also seen him take some pieces...

Name Time

Eva James @wolfgirl569 (134511) • Marion, Ohio 9h

This is the first little girl that needs a name. I love her face markings. Remember I want marijuana related names. And Mary Jane or four twenty are too common. As long as nothing happens she will be a house cat in a few weeks....

snowy @snowy22315 (207586) • United States 11h

Juliaacv I hope that you have some things to tend to during your heat wave, so that you do not have to venture out. We will have warm and muggy weather, but there is a threat of a cold day on Thursday that may require me to turn the furnace on for the duration of that...

Hot or Cold Shower.

rakski @rakski (154339) • Philippines 23h

I do not have a water heater at home, but these days the water from the faucet already feels warm because of the hot weather. Sometimes it is surprising because I expect the water to be refreshing, especially during the afternoon,...

Containers at a coin fair

Judy Evans @JudyEv (380023) • Rockingham, Australia 13h

We went to a coin fair yesterday and the photo shows part of one of the stands. These were placed round the sides of quite a loarge hall as well as in the middle as well. I thought this photo would be interesting as it shows a...

Juliaacv The containers that they used are what the majority of us can relate to. We all have favorites that we use over and over again. And based on how long it takes for plastic to break down, we should be reusing those containers.

Pennies from Heaven

RasmaSandra @RasmaSandra (97202) • Daytona Beach, Florida 16 May

snowy @snowy22315 (207586) • United States 15 May

A conversation with a mylotter got me thinking. Do you ever re read your books? I have hundreds of books here, I think..actually I never counted them, but a lot. I could count on one hand the ones that I have read more than once....

Juliaacv There are a few that I reach for again. There is a trilogy of books that my Dad gave to me that I try to reach each year leading up to Christmas. There are some local historic books, that have a story to them, that I enjoy reading again. I have a few of...

My observations from the Boozy Book Fair

snowy @snowy22315 (207586) • United States 16 May

It seems like many people are interested in wine, beer and books in this area. The stalls had a lot of traffic and so did the winery which also serves beer. I learned I really don't like pickle beer and would never order it. A...

Drinking "Emergen C" drink

Heather Echola @GardenGerty (169077) • United States 16 May

I have caught something. It has given me a terribly sore throat, muscle pain, maybe a fever, and just no energy. Of course it did. My daughter is coming to visit. I wonder if I caught it in one of those doctor's offices, or...

Going to a coin fair today

Judy Evans @JudyEv (380023) • Rockingham, Australia 15 May

Shortly we’re off to a coin fair. Vince has collected coins for a very long time. Most of his collection is of Australian coins but includes a lot of mint rolls as well as loose coins. With postage as high as it is, it’s not...

Juliaacv That would be an interesting fair to attend. The newer collector series of coins that the Canadian Mint has released are so very pretty, vivid colours on them. I have a couple of collections from years ago, they ran a series featuring each of the provinces and...

I Went On-a Her House

Four Walls @FourWalls (85960) • United States 15 May

Nice surprise

BarBaraPrz @BarBaraPrz (51778) • St. Catharines, Ontario 16 May

Way back when, I signed on to the Canadian Packaged Bread Class Action (price fixing). And when I signed on to my email this morning, I saw that I got a notice from them. My share of the settlement: $49.11 Canadian. Not bad, as I...

Juliaacv I believe that I added my information to the class action lawsuit, but I haven't received an email as of yet. Unless it went to spam and I deleted it. Enjoy the fallout of it, I didn't think it would pay that well either.

Fleur @Fleura (34719) • United Kingdom 16 May
