Today would have been my mom and dad’s 50th wedding anniversary (they married very young). She died a few months before their 40th anniversary. Thirty-one of those years were good, with nine a total nightmare due to her dementia....

A couple of years ago the shelf in the lower cabinet where I keep my cookware, colanders, etc. "fell". Whatever was holding it up somehow failed and the shelf wound up literally just resting on top of whatever bowls, pots, etc. I...

I am also glad that the guy I bought my tires from apparently is a member too, and got the tires there. I was able to get my tires inflated, rotated and balanced all for free today. If you took it to a shop at least in this area,...

Marie Coyle I love Costco. I think it's better than Sam's. I used to belong to Sam's as there was no Costco--when all the kids were home, it was more for neccessity than anything, we really plowed through the groceries with a houseful of teenagers!! A few years ago, when...

Hoping for some fun stuff at the auction today. The snack guy was there Tuesday but...

The head of maintenance showed up here about an hour ago to check out the shelf situation. He thinks it is just a matter of putting new clips in whatever that means. He told me I had to empty the cabinet. Fine.
OMFG I found so...

I used to get all sorts of spam email showing up in my 'regular' email. I'd always mark it as spam, then delete it. Sometimes there'd be a dozen or more of them.
But for the last week or two, I haven't received any, and I'm...

Hello everyone. I hope your day is off to a good start. It is 61 degrees F and sunny here at the Jersey Shore. The high for today is 80. This is so not August weather. It is crazy.
I woke up around 6am which is nuts because I was...

I just had to share Roscoe's happy face. I get to see this everyday and often he simply does the same to Tuffy, his kitty.
I was wondering, are any of you old enough to remember this tune? I love it, it's really beautiful yet I...

We finally are able to get into our class rosters and the grading program today. I was floored to see that 3 of my CP classes have fewer than 15 students. One of them has 22. The Honors section has 28. I've never seen such small...

Yes, I’m late. Two hours at the VA will do that to you. Nothing serious, scheduled podiatry and physical therapy. You shouldn’t have to wait for today’s song on the list of places I went on my recent trip. One of my favorite...

I am eating a packaged Asian salad. This is my second time eating it. I don't recall there being a lot of carrots in the first go round, but this portion is literally loaded with carrots. They must have all sunk to the bottom. I...

Marie Coyle I have had a few of those packaged salads, but they are often way more pricey than I want to pay. My favorite salad is built on a base of fresh chopped Romaine lettuce--I just buy the heads of lettuce in the package or loose if they are available. Tomatoes are...

I got a few things finished. And will finish a few more tomorrow. For today we got 2 more quarts of tomato juice. That was the last of the ripe tomatoes. I also processed 3 more pints of sauerkraut. The last of the wood is moved...

My eye always goes to articles about potatoes. I love them so. But this one I thought was rather interesting. It says that storing potatoes in a plastic bag is a no-no. It causes them to root and mold sooner. Keeping them in a...

Marie Coyle I never, ever store potatoes in a plastic bag. They will not last very long in the bag. When I buy them, I take them out of the bag and look at each potato while I am setting it out on a towel. They sit on the towel for several hours and then I look at each...

He finally has it set up. Except for the rain gauge. The outside sensor says it should not get wet. Seriously!!! It's supposed to be outside. I put it in a ziplock baggie and hooked that to the window. I will try to find...

How about that, in one day we’ve made it across the state of Missouri! That’s easy when you’re doing a music list…not so easy when you’re driving it. To be fair, it’s only about 250 miles, so it’s not that bad. Not a...

Marie Coyle Of all of the cities and towns I can think of anywhere in the Midwest, East St. Louis is, to me, the worst of the worst. It is so very sad. No one would go there now to hear anyone sing or perform, I don't think--not without armed guards, seriously. It's scary...
