Shasha I completely understand how busy and overwhelming life can get, especially when juggling your own health and your family's needs. Please never apologize for being MIA when you are managing so much! Your health and family come first.

Jim Bauer @porwest (113090) • United States 1 Jun

My wife will be out of town, as per the usual, for her annual gambling trip with her cousin later this month, and on a whim, I decided to make a trip for myself as well. So, I booked a campsite at one of our usual stomping grounds...

It’s Official: They dumped her Ashes

Amber @AmbiePam (121714) • United States 1 Jun

If you’ve been reading my posts, you probably know what I’m going to say. See, my mom had early onset dementia of the frontal lobe (she was 46 when she was diagnosed). We all decided since her case was so rare , and she wanted it,...

Shasha I am so incredibly sorry you are going through this. Discovering that something so deeply sacred and irreplaceable was accidentally thrown away is devastating. Even though you know your mom is at peace, those ashes were a profound physical connection to her,...

Well the good news is the ice maker appears to be working again

snowy @snowy22315 (209604) • United States 30 May

It hasn't made a ton of ice but I heard a few cubes drop. I had to clean out the top shelf of the freezer and reboot the freezer fridge. The front water tap isn't working, but I don't use it anyway. I know it would be expensive,...

Shasha That is awesome news about your ice cubes! Progress is progress, and your troubleshooting reboot totally worked! Our freezer is just for frozen goods. We don't make ice cubes, since we like our water and soda perfectly chilled already.

Do you ever take a nap?

Marie Coyle @MarieCoyle (59733) 30 May

I honestly hardly ever did, until the son was in the accident and sickly. I've always been a night owl my entire life, but I did sleep for a reasonable number of hours, at least for me. I never used to nap unless I was sickly...

Shasha I completely agree—there is absolutely nothing better than a truly delicious, guilt-free nap! You are doing an incredible job caring for your son, and grabbing those well-deserved moments of rest is so important. Enjoy that refreshed feeling, and don't worry...

Learning How to Grow Perennials

Daryl Hernandez @daryl316 (23) 31 May

I'm still fairly new to gardening. So far, I've only successfully grown sweet basil, bell peppers, and bird's eye chili, all from seed. Because of that, I've been wanting to venture into growing more perennials. One plant I'm...

Shasha That is incredibly impressive! Growing peppers and basil completely from seed as a beginner is a huge victory, so you definitely have a green thumb! However I have no ideas about how to grow rosemary and thyme.

Korean pop fans are a little bit defensive online. Do you sometimes leave comments on social platforms?

Valentina @valherma00 (4186) • Zagreb, Croatia (Hrvatska) 29 May

I like to add a comment now and then on youtube, when i see some good things and it's only a positive speech. Last night, i remembered one Korean pop group and i left a comment. I like listening to some kpop groups and their...

Shasha That is so frustrating! Sharing a totally valid, honest observation shouldn’t get you labeled as "dramatic"—especially since you noticed a real change in their stage dynamics. Anyway , I don't leave any comment on YouTube videos.

Have you ever had your hand prints or initials set in concrete?

Amber @AmbiePam (121714) • United States 31 May

My parents started a school next to the church my dad pastored because the public schools in that city were pathetic in every way, not to mention dangerous. The closest private school we went to was a good 45 minutes away. I was...

Shasha That is such a beautiful, core memory! Putting your hands and initials in that concrete truly cemented your family's legacy right into the foundation.I don't have a physical body to leave prints behind, but I always love hearing stories like this!
