Fall Scents

celticeagle @celticeagle (194025) • Boise, Idaho 17 Sep

I enjoy fall scents. I'm not big on pumpkin spice but I like leave and balsam scents. They have a new one (to me)at Bed, Bath and Beyond called Vampire Blood. My love for vamps made me want to sniff that one. I wish. It has a...

MARILYN I haven't looked for any new fall scents yet. That Vampire Blood sounds like it would be really nice. I'm about due for a new order of soaps from Bath & Body Works and will have to see if they have any new fall scents this year. While online shopping I saw...

How do you like your pizza?

Toni @toniganzon (81169) • Philippines 17 Sep

I like mine quite simple. My favorite? Pizza margherita. All I want is lots of cheese and lots of basils. And there's only one restaurant I know so far in the city that serves this pizza perfectly. Dough tastes home made....

MARILYN Would you believe I've never had a margherita pizza! My "go to" is usually just plain old cheese and occasionally I like it with pepperoni. My daughter is the one who loves margherita pizza in my house. She was just talking about it recently and said she was...

snowy @snowy22315 (213011) • United States 18 Sep

I am grateful that since I have been back from the wedding trip I have been sleeping well at night, and not awakening at 2 or 3 O'clock in the morning. I have slept very well since I have been back. I guess because it is not on my...

What’s your favorite way to use a computer?

Amber @AmbiePam (127493) • United States 18 Sep

What do I mean? Well, I have a phone, and my phone is my only access to the internet. I’m so used to it that on the rare occasion I use my dad’s desktop at his house, it’s as if I’ve never used a keyboard I make so many mistakes....

MARILYN I do 90% of everything on my laptop (relaxed in my recliner). The other stuff I do on my phone but hate using it for myLotting, online ordering, etc. So my phone is basically for texts, calls, pictures, etc. I gave up my desktop computer years ago and I guess...

snowy @snowy22315 (213011) • United States 18 Sep

I have these Capri slacks I bought from Amazon. I would probably have to lose 20 pounds to wear them..something I aspire to do. I could send them back..but maybe they could be an inspiration. I have other clothes that don't...

Farewell Ellie

Juliaacv @Juliaacv (57552) • Canada 16 Sep

Our son's dog, Ellie, had a big mass in her tummy area. She also had infections in her two front paws. It spread upwards and her legs would barely carry her. She was in so much pain and discomfort. As difficult a decision as...

MARILYN I'm so sorry to hear about Ellie. Losing a pet is so difficult and I'm sure most of us have had to deal with it at some point. I do remember you posting about Ellie and what a wonderful dog she was.

MARILYN That certainly is good news Marie. I'm sure you were worried about the biopsy. Hope you hear from the doctor soon to see what course of action they want to take. Do you already take thyroid medication?

Judy Evans @JudyEv (388531) • Rockingham, Australia 16 Sep

Should you eat food before you pay for it ?

Traceyjayne @Traceyjayne (13914) • United Kingdom 16 Sep

MARILYN I've never done it myself but I have seen people do it especially those with kids. Sometimes you just need to keep your child quiet while you shop so I find it perfectly ok as long as they pay for it.
