Hello dear friends. Yesterday Martín came. He was thin. I don´t know if it was part of his long cold or if it is because his parents are away and he doesn´t eat properly. He came at noon and made himself 2 sandwichs while he...

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....

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...

Lenore Plassman @MarieCoyle That's wonderful. Burl Ives also had a lovely waterfront house hear near one of my sister's lives now.

I know that politics is not a popular topic on MyLot. But I had to ask: Do you believe Donald Trump will be able to serve out his second term? Impeachment. 25th Amendment. Illness and death. All reallistic possibilities at this...

The Horse @MarieCoyle True. He is already past the point of absurdity, though.

I've lost my keys! All two of them. I have a spare house key, but not one for the padlock on my shed. Usually, I just have to say, "Keys, where are you?" and they show up in a few minutes, but not this time. I've looked and...

BarBaraPrz @MarieCoyle The house key, anyway. The key for the padlock won't be of any use after I cut off the padlock.

Hubby has to do his running so I am going with him. I need to renew my truck tags since it's fixed. It's a cloudy day right now so I am not sure what I will be doing after. If it doesn't rain I need to get more of the milk...

At least enough for me to do things outside. I am almost ready to plant everything I have so far. As you can see I did get the cabbage planted. They can take a light frost if we get one this weekend. I have all of my milk crates...

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....

Four Walls @MarieCoyle — I’m not so smart. When I left Clarksville, right over the river from Louisville where there’s a big event going on, gas was $3.93, or 25c cheaper than in Louisville. By the time I got to Bloomington, about 80 miles away, gas prices were...

But....we are OK. I can't see any damage much as all the street lights are either out, or they have broken bulbs. And there is literally stuff all over the place that has blown in from who knows where--trash, yard ornaments,...

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,...

jaishankar @MarieCoyle Got it. Perhaps that's why the couldn't distinguish between the hospital and the university. Here once a cow had suddenly rushed into a house where a wedding ceremony was going on. The bride, the groom, the priest and all those attending the...

Anna @MarieCoyle Cows are particularly sensitive to sudden movements, noises, and unfamiliar objects. I noticed when I went to visit the brother of my mother. He had many cows because he produced Parmesan cheese and butter.

Today, someone helped me with something that meant a lot to me. A good friend just showed up...brought some coffee, and the visit made a big difference. Sometimes, a person just needs support and a listening ear and a caring heart...

I have made many friends. Those who were strangers for me are now my friends. I have realised making friends is not so difficult. All you need is know what they are interested in and be a little informal. Once while travelling...

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...
