A few of you may remember last Christmas someone from the post office stole my Christmas cards (the post office admitted this when 3 months later they brought them to my front door all opened with just one envelope). Why? Well, if...

Amber I don’t even know how you get the post office back on track. Where does one even begin? You’ve had the worst “luck” with the post office, followed probably by @MarieCoyle .

At least, here in the Midwest, we seem to. When the chips are down, someone is feeling badly, you are nostalgic, we sometimes turn to foods that seem to make us feel better. Often, these foods are simple, and we expect them to...

Enigma @MarieCoyle That kind of unwavering authenticity is rare and powerful. It's not just how you feel—it's who you are. And that's what makes a person truly compelling.

I just got out of the tub and gave George a second tube feeding. We bought a head of letice today which I'll have to wash off, and he might want to do something with it. Honestly, I'm glad to see him taking an interest in...

I should have thought of this a long time ago. If you know me well, you know I absolutely detest flies. I mean, I hate them. They are NOT welcome in my home. They are dirty and disgusting and I don't want them near my food or...

Judy Evans @MarieCoyle They certainly looked gross even in a barn or garage.

Update on gravel man - Wednesday - Called him to see how his doctor's appointment went. Very brief conversation. Thursday - He stopped by to tell me he was tired on Wednesday; and he hoped he didn't cut me off. We talked for a...

Back in the day of newspapers being part of our daily lives, there were ladies who offered all types of advice--Dear Abby, Ann Landers...and then there were Hints from Heloise. Dear Abby is still a thing in some places, written by...

Max Crisp @MarieCoyle I’m not surprised you haven’t heard of them. I was just really replying to TJ. I haven’t heard of your agony aunts either. Not that I’m an expert on agony aunts! Yes, apart from lighting fires, newspapers were great...

At the cabin, I was crouching a bit to spray paint a lower log when it went partially out. Yesterday, I was just walking, and it blew out. I am getting by with one crutch. I can put a bit of pressure on it, but the pain is pretty...

vanny @MarieCoyle In so far as intuition is concerned, I noticed that when I am preoccupied ..I am like a machine...I don't seem to have any human qualities. After the task is over and done with, realization and naturally regrets. The other day...one sunday....an...

I am seeing more instances of children, usually about ages 9 or 10, to 12 or so, out begging. They ask for ''a few dollars'' from everyone they can. Often you can see them talking to someone through a car window, and when they see...

Most people I know here in the US are saying that they are. Once upon a time, a chuck roast (here in the US we often call it pot roast) was a very affordable dinner. A person could afford a fairly large chunk for a reasonable...

B @MarieCoyle I'd be honest to say that sometimes, I feel I'm losing hope in our world, in our people, with all the things that are happening in the world today.

One thing I am really happy about is that it has been years since I have seen a pay toilet. How cheap can you be to charge for using one? However, I realize water and maintenance is not free, so I can kind of sympathize for...

Anna @MarieCoyle - Those sandals should be banned. Their lack of protection can also lead to posture problems affecting the knees, hips, and back over time. Too many people wear them all the time and then they complain of back pain.

I've spoken here about my neighbor, who buys things constantly--she is a wild shopaholic and likes to order things online as well. Often, this backfires and she gives it away when she discovers she doesn't like it. I have tried to...

Anna @MarieCoyle - We quit Monte Carlo when we planned to retire because the price of lodging was too high there, impossible to rent a small apartment at a decent price.

We had a big day of appointments. Finally made it back home, and after dinner son said ''let's watch something different'' so I scanned the vintage movies. Normally, they aren't his favorite, but I told him about ''Spencer's...

Anna @MarieCoyle - I agree, I know people who never used public transport. They had a chauffeur to bring them to school since they were kids. They cannot understand those who have no money.

Kayla Tsukino @MarieCoyle George rarely does, and when he does I know he's really bothered about something. George's never been one to directly express himself, and the times he does are rare. It shows he feels deeply about things, and I know what he's thinking without him...
