The Horse @TheHorse (233193) • Walnut Creek, California 14h

I never did make it to music practice yesterday. I made it onto Highway 4, which I call "Gun Alley," and wound up at a dead stop about three miles in. I turned on the radio and learned that someone had run into traffic while...

When you don’t have to buy it for yourself…

Amber @AmbiePam (108563) • United States 13h

Funeral home calendars were the norm growing up. I didn’t really make the connection of my dad being a pastor and having so many funeral home calendars until I was older. Anyway, so the free ones were the ones we used at home....

Car won't start...

DE @DaddyEvil (164108) • United States 18h

We've been very careful to drive at least once a week or start the car and let it run for 45 minutes to an hour once a week... We drove to the store last Thursday. Today I had a doctor's appointment and when I went out to start...

snowy @snowy22315 (200425) • United States 17h

Of course I know all the conventional methods running under hot water, tapping with a butter knife etc. but one thing I have found that works really well is gripping it with an old mousepad. They sell those jar openers with the...

Pretty Pretty

Eva James @wolfgirl569 (126854) • Marion, Ohio 22 Dec

And it's a lot more comfortable here in the family room now. It had thought of something different to do this time. Somehow a vacuum hose got clogged. I have never heard of a vacuum hose getting dust in them. But this one did. And...

This morning after I fed the cats and managed to get both Beau Teak and Fred to take their meds, I waded into making pie dough. Hubby pitted Bing cherries last night. This morning I woke enough to make the pie crust and dump...

Friday was a freaky day in a way, but working half day and then having coffee with Jane and then having a doctor's appointment, and extra labs was a good kick off for winter break. Today I had three medical appointments as well....

I cannot do bugs.

Amber @AmbiePam (108563) • United States 22 Dec

I got a survey today about bugs, and I immediately exited the survey. I cannot do bug surveys anymore. One of my neighbors had bed bugs. The inspection showed no one else in the building did, but I fogged my apartment anyway...

Big rain!

The Horse @TheHorse (233193) • Walnut Creek, California 22 Dec

We had quite the rain storm last night. The gutters were overflowing and there were no gaps in the rain. It wasn't really a hard rain. Just medium and steady, like a rainy Seattle day. Right now it is cloudy and calm. I will be...
