Wow! That Was Quick!

DE @DaddyEvil (166820) • United States 13 Dec

This morning the forecast for my area said we'd have thick fog and 32F/0C slowly warming up to 40F/4C this afternoon. Now the forecast is saying cloudy and rainy today. *sigh* Pretty and I were talking about going shopping this...

L Mystic Well now it is like 59 here, and it has been cloudy. I think we have rain coming our way, but I am not sure, because it changes. I always joke that being a meteorologist is the only job where you can get everything wrong and still keep your job lol. I mean,...

Which sounds better?

Amber @AmbiePam (111803) • United States 11 Dec

So, one of these is going to my 87 year old aunt who looks and acts around 65. She still has her own garden, still does the Tulsa Run every year, and lives by herself (her husband died 10 years ago). Since I still can’t quite find...

L Mystic That sounds great! I really enjoy both steak and pizza. If there's no pizza planned, I’d probably pick the steak, but I’d still love to try the pizza since I like experimenting with seasonings. Sometimes I even sprinkle steak-seasoned spices on my hamburgers,...

Having been an alcoholic and suffered a lot as a result of overindulgence in drinking, I made a decision to quit. However, many of my friends still do drink, dangerously. I was so much moved by the miserable lives that drunkards...

L Mystic I am so sorry to hear about your friend, and yes, drinking is a huge thing that many can't get over alone. I hope that others get to read the novel, and I pray that they find help within it. You are writing to help others, and I hope that you continue to use...

It's a beautiful morning. It's cloudy, the temperature is a perfect 28 F, and it snowed during the night. Yes, it's beautiful. Today will be somewhat busy. My friend is picking me up in less than an hour for rock painting. Which...

L Mystic My day was about the same weather-wise, like around the forties to fifties. I have also been writing more stories and poems to share online for my readers. Today is chill, and I'm getting ready for the crazy week ahead.

Would you pay more for an autographed book?

Lena Kovadlo @lovebuglena (48926) • Staten Island, New York 23 Oct

Melania Trump’s memoir in hardcover is sold for $40. On her website there is a signed hardcover of her memoir being sold for $150. I am assuming it’s exactly the same book and it’s just autographed inside. That’s $110 more for a...

L Mystic Nope, I would not pay for that or anyone else for that matter. Some of them over price these books like they wrote them. I write my own material and I wouldn't even charge that much.

How much makeup do you wear?

Amber @AmbiePam (111803) • United States 23 Oct

Not to exclude a gender, but how much makeup do you wear? I wear foundation, eyeliner, and lip gloss. If I’m just going to the store, I don’t bother with makeup. It takes me over a year to go through a small bottle of foundation....

L Mystic I only wear makeup here and there, but when I do, it is just lip gloss or lipstick with eyeshadow. I am not a foundation girl or anything like that. I might throw some blush on here and there. I do not need makeup, and it will age you. I usually will call it...

Short story: The coming and going of love

emptychair @innertalks (23525) • Australia 23 Jun

A Day at the Hollywood

Jim Bauer @porwest (111868) • United States 8 Jun

My wife and her cousin Lorie are still in town, leaving today for their gambling trip in Oak Grove, Kentucky. We wanted to spend some time around the pool but it turned out to be a cool and rainy day, so it was decided we'd pick...

L Mystic That is all that matters. We took our first family cruise and had a blast, even though my boys and the boys went into the arcade and kept swiping the card to play the games because we kept winning. Gambling-wise, I think I made 7 bucks, and that was it, lol.

What you see in the photo is a stump of a dead areca nut tree. It was uprooted along with a clump of mud that has stayed so far. We have just applied some clear varnish that has helped it somewhat. We did not expect it to stay...

I got evicted!

The Horse @TheHorse (234498) • Walnut Creek, California 7 Dec 24

No, it wasn't my "occasional" sneaking of a cigarette inside my house. And it certainly wasn't the constant stream of young French girls coming and going from my house. It was non-payment of rent. I received the pay or quit...

L Mystic Wow, that is crazy. If you can, I would think about going somewhere that accepts checks, and debit cards. People don't carry cash like that anymore. I would even go as far as to ask them why they are not taking it out of your bank account every month account...

L Mystic We used to get them a lot, but we noticed the boys would not eat them as much. I love the peppermint ones though. I think that they are nice for the tree, but don't buy too many if you have kids that don't eat them. I would rather get the fake ones to hang on...

L Mystic Hmm, I might have to get into this series. Thank you for sharing this. Have you seen Into the Dark on Hulu? They are short anthology horror stories. I thought some of them were pretty good like "Uncanny Annie" is my favorite.
