You’re the Nearest Thing to Heaven

RasmaSandra @RasmaSandra (90459) • Daytona Beach, Florida 5 Oct

“You’re the Nearest Thing to Heaven” is a wonderful and sweet love song. It was co-written by Johnny Cash and released as a single in August 1958. The other two song authors, I think some might recognize by name; they were Hoyt...

Juliaacv I am not familiar with this song. Your mother was a beautiful lady.

Sunny Sunday

Eva James @wolfgirl569 (124394) • Marion, Ohio 5 Oct

It's warming up nicely. We are supposed to get in the 80s again today. I am enjoying this weather but we do need rain. That would be nice. No big plans for today. Hubby can't get the Brown's game so I don't know if he will watch...

Good morning 10/5

snowy @snowy22315 (198210) • United States 5 Oct

I made the mini cinnamon rolls today..quite tasty. They would be even better with new super fresh tortillas. Simple to make and good. I would recommend putting parchment paper in the pan in case some of the filling leaks out

Juliaacv They sound delicious. Here, it will be the usual eggs, bacon, breakfast sausages, home fries, eggs for him and a strawberry-filled crepe for me. Our usual Sunday breakfast, but we love it.

Juliaacv Good point brought forth. It is a shame that it has been such a short time since your previous post regarding this. There are some cliches here that are intimidating, hopefully this post will resonate with those members.

Free food!

Fleur @Fleura (33026) • United Kingdom 5 Oct

I can never resist free food, especially when I know that if I don’t take it, it will go to waste, which just offends my sensibilities! Just a bit further along our road there is a sweet chestnut tree at the bottom of someone’s...

Juliaacv It is a shame that people no longer use the food that grows on trees such as chestnuts. The health value of those nuts is amazing, and they are delicious. I haven't had any in years.

Juliaacv It is too bad that the chain is closing, competition is good, it gives the consumer more leverage. Yesterday we went apple picking in the morning, and didn't return home until early afternoon. We were both starving and I made up some wraps with fresh deli...

Movies in College

Amber @AmbiePam (105389) • United States 5 Oct

@LindaOHio and I were talking about how I had been shown movies in college, and she hadn’t been shown movies in high school or college. In college, I believe it was my Psychology class, we were shown “The Miracle Worker” about...

Juliaacv I know that we were never shown movies during my college years, and in high school there were some. I attended a private Catholic high school, and they were very strict, so there were not any 'fun' movies, they were factual only-really dry stuff, and there...

How times change!

Fleur @Fleura (33026) • United Kingdom 5 Oct

Sometimes change comes gradually, sometimes it happens in jumps. In my lifetime for example, homosexuality has gone from just about being decriminalized to now practically being celebrated and gay marriage being legal. In the...

Juliaacv I think that is just wonderful. It seems like the role can still be filled by a woman, and we hear less and less of nuns in our society today don't we? The leap would amount to more years in university, and a shift in devotion from serving through teaching and...

Another cra, cra dream as the kids say

snowy @snowy22315 (198210) • United States 4 Oct

This one also involved a my lotter. I dreamed friend and I had a therapy appointment. During that time we also found out his father died. That was quite a trick because the real guy has been dead for probably 35 years. Anyways, we...

Juliaacv Maybe it is the full moon that caused your wild dream. I woke this morning, very early, with the feel of someone making a letter S on my outer left ankle-I sleep with my ankles and feet uncovered. I researched it and was surprised at what I found. A couple of...

LindaOH @LindaOHio (205036) • United States 3 Oct

Juliaacv I think that it is wonderful that he is interested in becoming friends and getting to know you. He is probably finishing up his work for the season, and will have much more time to enjoy himself very soon. Yesterday was pizza night here.

A bit late to the party!

Fleur @Fleura (33026) • United Kingdom 30 Sep

On a recent car journey I stopped at the motorway services and there they had a Krispy Kreme doughnut stall, which had a big poster advertising Harry Potter-themed Hogwarts doughnuts. Talk about jumping on a bandwagon – although...

Juliaacv I agree they are late to the party. They do not sell that brand in our country, which I am thankful for, because they are loaded with calories and unhealthy transfat.

Oh look at that--the Michigan shooter was not a "radical left-wing terrorist"

NJ Chicaa @NJChicaa (125130) • United States 29 Sep

Oh he was a terrorist alright but he was a member of the MAGA cult. I've been seeing pictures of him all day wearing a Trump t-shirt that says "Make Liberals Cry Again". Immediately after the news broke Trump and JD Vance...

One thing men do I cannot stand.

Amber @AmbiePam (105389) • United States 29 Sep

I am not a man basher. But there is one thing men seem to do that women do not, that is driving me nuts. First, let me say the male neighbor catty corner from me keeps his front door open. When he has his TV on, I can hear it...
