Were you asked what Christmas gift do you want to have this Christmas? I was by my hubby and as always, I didn’t know. He asked me if I want to have a ticket for a vacation in the Philippines and I said No. It’s still early and...

MARILYN That watch is very pretty. Yes, I was asked what I wanted as a gift but I don't need anything. It was hard to come up with a few suggestions as I don't want my children spending a lot of money when I really don't need anything. All year long I appreciate the...

The photo has nothing to do with the discussion. These were decorations at our clubhouse Christmas dinner. To lose your marbles means to lose your wits or sanity. A response by @xFiacre prompted this discussion. A lovely lady...

MARILYN I'm very familiar with that phrase and could swear that I've lost some marbles myself I feel bad for that lady but I can understand her reluctance to leave her home knowing she'll probably not come back.

I did not meet my grandparents until I was 15 years old. I was never really close to them. There was one that was really nice and always had candy in a candy bowl for us. Also he was nice and was a carpenter and made toys for my...

It was such a relief to get another iPad. I can see what I’m doing online so much better. It’s very similar to my old one. It’s been a busy week. I hope that life slows down a bit and I can get back here on Mylot more. I hope...

I just don't like Christmas music. Perhaps it's because they over-saturate you with it this time of year. Every single doctor's office, restaurant, store, gas station, and more has Christmas music blaring overhead assaulting you...

Before any home health aides can be scheduled, my husband must go to his primary care provider and be examined. That would mean somehow managing to get him down 3 steps, into the car, out of the car, into a wheelchair, etc. I...

MARILYN I'm so sorry that you have this decision to make and I'm sure it extremely hard. My first concern would be that he still has the catheter and that either has to be removed and/or someone who is able to take care of it. I think him going to see a primary...

MARILYN Quite a few of those options are appealing but I'm a big burger person so that's probably what I would choose.

MARILYN That was a pretty funny dream you had especially about your hitchhiking to the wedding. So far I haven't dreamt of any myLotters but some do pop into my thoughts regularly.

Neither one of my parents ever really wanted anything for Christmas. I mean, if anything, they would have enjoyed books, but they had plenty of those. Our church happens to be close to a Christian college, so we’d always get...

MARILYN Wow that's really a heartwarming story to hear about your parents. I'm sure that the student appreciated being able to go home and more so the parents who have missed him/her.

MARILYN Walking on the treadmill can be boring and I hope music helps. Walking outside when it's really cold can take your breath away.
