Terminix showed up yesterday afternoon and found 7 or 8 dead mice in the basement. Gross. He, too, mentioned that they are probably coming in through the back door since there is weather stripping missing on that door. He...

Marie Coyle Well, yes, steel wool is a good thing, mice hate it. But I do have to ask, will the Terminex dude put it in place, or do you have to pay someone to do it? If it's the latter, here's a test you can try....remember cousin #3's husband offered to help you if you...

Marie Coyle @FourWalls Are you having Chuy's withdrawal? I hope you are starting to feel better. Even with my allergy meds, I think my eyes have been crying off and on for days now. That generally stops for me whenever we get a cold spell for a few days, not just the off...

Another gloomy day out there. However, the rain is supposed to stop before noon and it will get sunny, and windy. I just took a "brain fun" quiz. It is part of a research project of sorts. It comes to my email, every morning, and...

Marie Coyle We are pretty much in the 50's in the daytime and the 30's at night now. No sun today. I have one errand, plus taking son for a blood draw. Not exciting, but it won't take long. I think the Halloween spooktacular sounds great!

I will get ready to go in about an hour. No big hurry. It's raining out which we need. So far the wind is mostly calm. I am thinking the worst of that might have come through overnight. Nothing major planned for when I get home....

Marie Coyle We nearly blew away yesterday, that wind was crazy. Glad that you got yours in the night! I have been planning a bit of sewing, too. I promised myself I would try to sew more this winter again, I enjoy it.

This is the second or third time I have read something like this. How goofy is that? In the first place you might look lumpy, in the second place how weird would you look feeling around in your bra for your phone going off? In the...

I have come to the conclusion that home smoke detectors are all either cursed or just possessed and evil. Why, why do they go off into their ridiculously loud beeping only in the middle of the night?? They were all replaced two...

Marie Coyle I had to wake up the son, and I didn’t want to. They are on the ceiling of course, and I had to drag out the little folding stepstool. I didn’t want him to try it and he had a fit. He doesn’t like to admit his balance is off but it definitely is. So I climbed...

Marie Coyle I am glad you had such a nice day together. I love sitting and looking out at the ocean, too. Days that can be spent just enjoying each other's company are special, for sure.

You ever wonder why some people just won’t let go of a toxic relationship? Even when it’s full of manipulation, guilt trips, and gaslighting? It’s like they know it’s breaking them, yet they keep going back for more. Maybe it’s...
