I Just Got Called Elderly!

Lori A. Moore @LoriAMoore (4708) • United States 17h

Hey, now, just wait a minute. I don't mind being called "old", after all I am 54 and half my life is gone, but I'll be damned if I feel like I'm "elderly." I was in the line at Walgreens and this man about 40 years old says, "Go...

Back from the gym

Kristen Howe @KristenH (27475) • Cuyahoga Falls, Ohio 9h

This evening, it was perfect to stroll to the gym in the flops and back home. Not too hot or too cold. Just right with a gentle breeze and warmish weather. For class today, we had one new newbie for our small group of yogis on...

Pfft! You Were Gone

Four Walls @FourWalls (19961) • United States 10h

Sometimes it pays to know country music history. Poor John was recently at the exact same exit I was at today. He turned one way and was disappointed in the Davy Crockett State Park. I went the other way to beautiful downtown...

BarBaraPrz @BarBaraPrz (23483) • St. Catharines, Ontario 9h

I'm talking about the salad I had for dinner. Lettuce, beet tops, cucumber and zucchini fresh from my garden. The only thing that would have made it better would have been some cherry tomatoes, but they're taking their sweet time...

When hate goes away

Fleur @Fleura (9887) • United Kingdom 19h

I had quite an unpleasant time at secondary school. Not that I was beaten up or told to go and kill myself or anything like that, but just constant low-level stuff that eats away at you day after day. Some of the more unpleasant...

The Horse Great story! Hanging on to hate is a burden to the hater. I had a similar experience recently, except *I* was the jerk. At summer camp, when I was 11 or 12, I put Betsy M's recorder (she was always playing it, and it drove me nuts) in an old pile of road...

LindaOH @LindaOHio (6630) • United States 29 Jun

It's that time of year when we should address leaving children, the elderly and pets in the car during the hot weather. First of all, never ever leave a baby or small child in a car alone for even a few minutes if you are not...

Unforeseen consequences

The Horse As you know (from reading my posts), I absolutely adore playing with babies. If my wife worked, and I took care of our 1-year-old and 2 1/2-year-old, would I not want to return to work? It's possible. I could easily be "Mr. Mom." But I also love work, whether...
