There are people who have to know everything. If there is a secret, they feel the need to know it. Sometimes they try to disguise it with concern, when all they really are is nosy. Would it kill them to be unaware of just one...

laser_vision My boyfriend says he hates such people, calling them "nosy busybodies", and he refuses to answer any of their questions. My life is too disturbing for these people to understand, so they ask me about my mom instead. I tell them to go talk to my mom. Problem...

People around here drive to Indiana (not far) and buy illegal fireworks, and drag them back here. We've had booms every night for at least two weeks, often until 2 or 3 in the morning. The last two days have been beyond terrible....

laser_vision @MarieCoyle Not to mention the people who have autism and other sensory sensitivities. Leave the fireworks to the government. I think they are banned here for private citizens because people throw them in the ocean which is kind of the worst, it has a...

So what did you end up doing for the 4th? I was hoping someone would call; but it was very quiet until the fireworks started. The guy next door must have spent a gzillion dollars on fireworks because he set them off nonstop for...

laser_vision That sounds terrible. My boyfriend and I actually had to leave our coffee shop parking lot and drive further away to get a good view of the fireworks without destroying our ears. Up close, they are really loud and sound like rifle shots. I can't imagine what...

Today I go to the new dentist to see what's going on with this root canal tooth. I am praying she doesn't have to pull it since it's in the front. I would have to get an implant which takes about 6 months. I am hoping she can...

laser_vision @LindaOHio When I was really struggling, about 1/2 cup daily, or eat 4 olives, about once daily. These days I just go for it on an as-needed basis. I can tell when my brain is starting to feel foggy because everything in there slows down.

laser_vision @LindaOHio I got it from an episode of Diary of a CEO. He interviewed a longevity expert. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=Htg3HCgrJK4&pp=0gcJCcEJAYcqIYzv The interviewee in the video gets all in there about how his olive juice and oil is the best, but it’s...

laser_vision Nice cat! Happy Fourth of July! It's a good day to spend with family and friends. I'm happy that you have events to attend with good food to eat. Nothing like free food to start a day off right.

laser_vision I love the picture. I'm sorry that you had to go through that. I consider it cruel to force a blind person with bad knees into a caregiver role. I'm sure you did it out of love for your mom, but sometimes we need to realize that the ones who need care...

laser_vision Lol, I was not expecting this response. How did it go? I presume that, due to lack of utility and zoning and easement concerns, it is easier to buy land for the dead than for the living.
