Most of us bathe daily morning or evening, some both. It's for comfort, hygiene, that sort of thing. But unless we are dirty and/or sweaty we really only need to bathe a few times a week. The action of bathing removes healthy oil...

Marie Coyle I like to go to bed clean, so I shower before hitting the sack. Besides,I am not a morning person. I get up before I have to,in order to drink my coffee but I just want to shower every night before bed.

Anybody remember Pete Seeger and Burl Ives? Glen Yarbrough? Activists and sometimes mellow. A merry band of troubadours. Daughter grew up with Pete. We're headed to our favorite bakery this afternoon to celebrate Beltane....

Marie Coyle @sallypup My (ex's) grandmother was from the same area as the Ives family, and lived close to them. She said they were just farmers, and struggled like everyone else did, never had a lot. I know that Jasper County is very proud that they can claim Burl Ives.

I don't know if they had this chain restaurant in your area or not. It was an American barbecue restaurant franchise chain. They had been in business for 27 years. They started out being owned by Darden Restaurants, which is...

Marie Coyle @LooeyVille Yes,they did. I look for McDonald’s to have the same problem before long. They keep advertising new menu items,etc but their sales are not what they were. Here in my area we have so many McDonald’s, some have very few cars compared to previous...

Not tired like I want to sleep, but unenergetic. I honestly didn't sleep super well last night or the night before which may be motivating this. I should be out doing my steps. It is a very nice day for it, and I want to burn up...

Marie Coyle @snowy22315 It was roaring and crazy. The worst wind I've seen here in quite some time. In 2013 we had a huge tornado hit very close to me. The damage was so terrible, it nearly wiped out a small village.

Marie Coyle @LadyDuck You really did find a place to live that works for you and is more suited for you and your husband now. I am just so glad you don't have that big garden to take care of, and those stairs to climb!

Ours sure did shoot up today! . We are now at $4.49. To me, that's a LOT. To fill my small SUV, and yes, it is small, it's $60+ if it's empty. I know some of you drive huge vehicles and that probably seems cheap to you....

I admit it, I have read several books on the Titanic, the initial impression it made on the world, and the fascination. It's not like most of us will ever be on a ship anything like it was back then. And of course, we've all seen...

We've heard of extremely young people going to college occasionally, maybe 14, 15 years old. Not the norm for sure, but it does happen occasionally. But have you ever heard of a cow going to a major university? I hadn't,...

Marie Coyle @LadyDuck That will be very special. Maybe you and your husband can sit together and someone can take a picture of just you two, at the party. Then you can have that to look at, it will be special.
