So many boomers gone over the rainbow 0.0

rebelann1949 @rebelann (115552) • El Paso, Texas 10 Jan

If not for that kitty in the photo I'd have taken Roscoe on trips to where ever, but that's ok, I'm probably not young enough to go truckin the way I used to. So this is the reason I thought of this, Bob Weir passed away today...

I thought I'd portray Tuffy dreamin of salmon just for kicks. He watched sharks and polar bears with me. I was watching an episode of the Tonight show which featured Bruno Vailati, an oceanographer back in the 60s and 70s, show...

What a day. We're still listening to the Nora Roberts murder mystery. I drove to Safeway and headed to the bakery- after I selected a bunch of red flowers. The young man at the counter said they did not have an order for a...

Birthday Plans

Amber @AmbiePam (109929) • United States 11h

We have some birthdays coming up, but I won’t say in case they don’t want anyone to know. My sister’s birthday is February first, but she’s leaving that day to go on a cruise to Mexico with her friend. She’s been to Mexico several...

Marie Coyle @MarieCoyle (53268) 8 Jan

And I have to say this--it's not easy. It has been discovered that my son possibly has a serious medical condition other than all of those caused by the accident. Today, we go for some scans, etc. to dig deeper into this. He is...

much2say That's how it was during the holidays for us - we had some crazy heavy rains. Apparently this gets us out of the drought (for now, according to the news). I'm glad you're getting a lot now too. We stayed indoors today today - it's sunny but now we have...

How did I get this burn?

Amber @AmbiePam (109929) • United States 8 Jan

So no one can explain to me how I got this 2nd degree burn when I was eighteen, and in the car wreck that damaged my neck and back. This picture doesn’t show all eight inches of it, but it’s long because the original burn was an...

If You Could Add One Thing to 2026

Tendz @Tendz09 (520) 10 Jan

What’s one thing you want more of this year—more peace, time for yourself, laughter, learning, or something else? For me, I’d choose more calm, meaningful moments, the kind that make days feel full without being rushed.

How many broken bones have you had?

Amber @AmbiePam (109929) • United States 10 Jan

When I was a little kid in California, a teenage girl dropped me, and my leg went through the wall, breaking it (my leg). When I was four, my collarbone was broken in a car accident. A few years later I broke a few toes, but those...

The Horse @TheHorse (233718) • Walnut Creek, California 10 Jan

We have no Lessons Lead right now. The overly aggressive young lady was fired, and they had nobody in line to back her up. If parents call to cancel or reschedule a lesson, they will encounter voice mail that is not being...

much2say You certainly earned all that is owed to you with all the work that you have done. To short you that much is not acceptable. Hope that gets sorted out and they hire or at least get someone to take care of lesson communications. Happy New Year, by the way!

Skies Gone By

OceanTiara @RebeccasFarm (91194) • United States 21 Dec

How are the skies where you live? Do you often have beautiful sunrises or sunsets? Some places I've lived, there was not a good view. But I'd make sure to go outside and find a nice spot to photo. These are some of them I got in...

Are You Covetous?

OceanTiara @RebeccasFarm (91194) • United States 24 Dec

To define covetous, it means longing or desiring another's property or possessions. I always thought covetous meant an insatiable greed for things. Anyway, I remember in school, when learning the ten commandments, one of them...

much2say Trains are so fascinating - especially the ol' ones. We have an outdoor train museum out here that feature the ol' steam engines - but we can only imagine them running. I've only ridden "rides" . . . I would love to go traveling on a "real" train!
