Sandy wants to give Scar some competition

NJ Chicaa @NJChicaa (123633) • United States 8 Feb 18

This is his high-wire. . . or high-shelf act. We have a cut out thing between the front room and the kitchen with a few shelves and Bad Sandy likes to get onto them, especially the top one. I used to have antique chemical...

JJ @JolietJake (50190) 17 Jan 18

Pantry Challenges

Leiann Lynn Rose Spontaneo @Spontaneo (14700) • United States 26 Jan 18

Is it time for you to do a pantry challenge? I am frugal. I often do this. Go through your kitchen cabinets and pull out everything that has been in there forever and you still have not used. Go into your fridge and freezer...

BobbyDem Hope all goes well for you. My husband has just been told he has to have a similar procedure and he's still coming to terms with the diagnosis. Unfortunately the doctors tell you the worst case scenario so it's hard to focus on the positive outcomes.

Hi everybody. It's Mildred the Cat. I don't like what I'm seeing outside and my mom really doesn't like what she's seeing - tons and tons of snow. Right now I'm huddled on the radiator trying to stay alive while my mom paces and...

Empty Wallet

Toni @toniganzon (72544) • Philippines 14 Sep 17

I got this wallet that says it's $135 and it made me think. A wallet this expensive should be carrying money equivalent to or more than its tag price! I don't usually buy wallets and all of my wallets were given to me. And all...

DianneN @DianneN (247157) • United States 10 Sep 17

We just returned from breakfast with friends. As we left the restaurant, my hubby and I had to walk through a cloud of stinky secondhand smoke. A man in his late 50's was puffing and coughing as he took long drags on his...

BobbyDem I don't smoke but I do snore - as my husband informs me when he's suffering from lack of sleep. My daughter snores as well, and at 11 years of age I know it has nothing to do with smoking.
