Nine hours and three trips, and it's finally a done deal!

Marie Coyle @MarieCoyle (45525) 27 Jun

I dreaded this, and it was even more of a fiasco than I ever imagined it could be. I had some title work to do with my car, and it had to be done at the DMV. Our DMV here is always very busy, and the other one not far away is...

NJ Chicaa I've got to get my car inspected soon. The cop who got me for expired registration approached the car from the passenger side so he missed seeing that it is several months out of compliance. hahaha It is so stupid. They used to check brakes, horn, lights,...

June Moon Top Ten: Southern Moon (#4)

Four Walls @FourWalls (76070) • United States 27 Jun

Good news: this is the last “Linda? NO!!!!!” warning for this countdown. Next month’s “sun” songs aren’t looking too promising for avoiding that, though. Oh well. Here’s another song from a previously-used list,...

Hydrox vs. Oreo

celticeagle @celticeagle (176266) • Boise, Idaho 26 Jun

I used to buy Hydrox cookies to put in my daughter's dad's work lunches. They were a chocolate sandwich cookie with a creme filling. I thought that Hydrox was a knock off of the Oreo but it seems to be the other way around. Oreos...

President Trump Gets It Done

clrumfelt @clrumfelt (5543) • Tennessee Ridge, Tennessee 26 Jun

I read with amusement an article in Politico describing President Trump at the NATO Summit. The NATO Secretary General, Mark Rutte, called Trump "Daddy" at a press conference. Trump continued to embrace that roll, describing...

NJ Chicaa Trump is a joke and has done nothing but screw things up both nationally and internationally since Jan 20. No one but MAGA cult members have any respect for him.

June Moon Top Ten: The Moon Just Turned Blue (#5)

Four Walls @FourWalls (76070) • United States 26 Jun

The good news is my air conditioner is fine. The bad news is that it’s still hot outside. As the Little River Band sang, though, hang on, help is on its way with a front this weekend. No relief from the “moon” songs...

They ran into her birth mother.

Amber @AmbiePam (99893) • United States 26 Jun

So you guys know my two nieces and nephew are adopted. Some of you may remember how the youngest, Annelyn (5), came to be adopted. Her birth mother poured boiling water on the lower half of Annelyn’s body, and was taken away. What...

Marie Coyle @MarieCoyle (45525) 25 Jun

I am always saying ''slow and steady, wins the race''...and I know that's true, at least in my case. If we pace ourselves, it seems that ultimately, our energy lasts longer. Yesterday was so hot I couldn't stand to be out--we...

June Moon Top Ten: Moonlight Gambler (#6)

Four Walls @FourWalls (76070) • United States 25 Jun

A “hokey weather fact” from our local meteorologist (his name is Ryan Hoke, so he calls these “Hokey weather facts” as a play on his name): most home AC units can only cool the house to at most 20 degrees below the outside...

Amber @AmbiePam (99893) • United States 25 Jun

For Christmas this last year I got my stepmom an advent calendar of seeds (she’s an avid gardener). She sent me pictures the other day of some of the results. I thought they looked so pretty. I’ll post the other one she sent some...

Four Walls @FourWalls (76070) • United States 24 Jun

Ouch. The nerve in my back in pinched, and anyone who’s had it knows that it’s a new adventure in pain. Oh, well, it’ll go away (or it won’t, one of the two). You know something else that won’t go away? This dad-gum country...

What book/s do you recommend and why?

Jenaisle @Jenaisle (15003) • Philippines 24 Jun

MARILYN @Marilynda1225 (85114) • United States 24 Jun

NJ Chicaa It was already 90 here by the time I dropped Claire off for her spay. I was planning to head to the pool but it is 98 degrees F with a real feel of 111 so I'm having a hard time getting motivated to put on my suit.

It’s About That Time of Year Again

NJ Chicaa I ***HATE*** them. They terrorized my old man cat SoCo. He would shake and drool. It is illegal to light them in residential areas and the a-holes who lived around us didn't care. One guy was so drunk one year that they were shooting through our back yard like...
