What an afternoon.

Kayla Tsukino @kaylachan (81484) • Daytona Beach, Florida 26 Mar 24

Well, I should say morning considering it's after 1 Pm and I'm just now getting to posting anything. My back is killing me, which isn't helping. It's also why I'm on the couch instead of my office. George is listening to Clumbo,...

DJ I hope your back feels better, soon! That's good to hear about George, minus the reluctance about driving to certain places. I can see that being a bother though, driving through Orlando area. I drove through that general area, January of 2023, a few times...

Vacation Come Down

Amber @AmbiePam (109196) • United States 26 Mar 24

Do you guys ever have a vacation let down? You come back, and you’re kind of lackadaisical? I think something else is bugging me too, but I had such a good time maybe it will take a little bit to get back in the swing of things....

DJ Yes, most definitely! I always (or mostly) find it takes a little while just to recover from a vacation. It is nice to be back home too, always nice to be back to the comforts of home.

Four Walls @FourWalls (81419) • United States 18 Nov 23

All The Places I've Worked

Jim Bauer @porwest (111818) • United States 9 Nov 23

I'm only 50, and while I use the term for my current status as "retired," I get antsy. And so, I am almost sure I will return to the workforce in some capacity, even if it is not full time. Plus, why not make money if I can even...

DJ I am only 33 myself, but even so, I have only really had about 3 or 4 jobs where I have been there for at least a few months or more. I have probably had a good 5 or 6 jobs that didn't end up working out for me, where I was there a month or less. I have done...

Brendel Is Not Feeling Well

CarolDM @CarolDM (203401) • Nashville, Tennessee 16 Jun 23

I stay concerned about one of my cats, Brendel. She turns 14 soon. I realize it is normal for her to slow down at this age. She has chronic bronchitis and kidney disease. She did not eat anything yesterday except a couple of...

Good day.

Kayla Tsukino @kaylachan (81484) • Daytona Beach, Florida 11 Jun 23

I was burning the midnight oil sort of speak so I caught up a bit in earnings. So, that's something to be thankful for. I hate that I have to sometimes, but I do need to follow trends. That being said, today is bright and kind of...

I’m just curious but…

solxee @sol_cee (38309) • Philippines 26 Feb 23

have you ever tried drugs? My neighbor is playing this rap song nonstop and the singer said he just tried using drugs so ‘he won’t be blind’. I get it. He tried dope or smoked weed because he wanted to know what it’s like. And...

DJ Yes, I have smoked weed before. I never really got too in to it, though. But I will admit, I did enjoy it. Unfortunately for me, I cannot smoke it anymore for different reasons - I get too paranoid and messed up, plus I am fairly certain that the medications...

A Few Things We Take For Granted

CarolDM @CarolDM (203401) • Nashville, Tennessee 1 Feb 23

The last couple of days I have spent lots of time on the phone helping my cousin. She is blind and rarely asks for help. Her daughter recently moved closer to her Dad, so she doesn't visit as often. I bought her a magnifier last...

DJ That is so nice of you to help out your cousin like that! You're absolutely right though, we should always be thankful for what we have and try not to take things for granted. I noticed you said you hope to visit her in person. Does she live...

Have you ever worked construction?

solxee @sol_cee (38309) • Philippines 1 Feb 23

Some of my neighbors here are having their house renovated and it feels like everywhere I look, all I see are construction workers. You know sweaty guys doing the grunt work and paid by the hour. Or so I thought. Two of them came...

Satisfied sheep in the sunshine

Judy Evans @JudyEv (368260) • Rockingham, Australia 3 Sep 22

Don’t these sheep look contented? We had just fed them some pellets and the greedy ones were making sure none got missed while the rest had gone off to sleep it off. They are all very rotund and don’t really need pellets but it...

George B Vieto @Deepizzaguy (116868) • Lake Charles, Louisiana 3 Sep 22
