Pretty keeps buying "stuff" we don't need and don't have room to store. Most of the problem with "stuff" is that it needs to be assembled after it arrives. She doesn't want to do the work and I basically can't do the...

Loretta It's ok to vent. It sounds like she gets the thrill of a purchase and then it wears off.

Pretty keeps checking the staples in my back. She says the area around them is red but not infected looking. She cleaned around them and put a bandaid over them but something in my bedding keeps pulling/tugging on the bandaids...

Loretta Yes. I had the top of my head stapled after squamous cell surgery, and it was awful wanting them out. I got stitches out of my chest last week, and came close to doing it myself. I'm sorry I missed all this. I haven't been on in a few weeks. I'll keep you in...

First thing in the morning (Thursday), I go to the local hospital for an echocardiogram and first thing Friday morning, I see my regular doctor to update her on what happened last week at the hospital. She'll check the staples and...

Loretta I have to go catch up on your happenings. My daughter went through that with her neurologist. I'm glad you are healing up nicely. Nothing exciting here. I'm just catching up on so many sites and deciding some I need to stop doing and concentrate on others.

Living in a retirement village, it is inevitable that from time to time someone will pass away. Yesterday we attended the funeral of one of our villages. We didn’t know him well but Vince had arranged a slideshow of his life for...

Tipping has become complicated because it seems to be requested more and more, and sometimes in places that leave me scratching my head. For instance, once a week I load my truck with different things and drive more than nine...

Loretta It's also crazy one can order a burger or a steak, the same service brings it, but a different tip is expected because of the price. I wish it was like there.

Loretta A prior son-in-law used to line up quite a few dollars on the table and when the waitress or waiter first came, he would say the tip is going to depend on the service. Every so often, he would remove a bill if no refill, forgot something or us. Only once was...

Loretta I agree. There are so many in service we don't tip like librarians, grocery cashier, policemen, etc.

Loretta I am the same way. I give cash to them most the time, but sometimes, I will use the receipt. I don't like the machines that have precents to click.

Loretta Well written! Here in Washington, restaurants are not allowed to pay a reduced wage. It bans tip credits for their wages. The minimum here is $17.13 an hour, but in more expensive cities like Seattle, it's $21.30. A good waiter/waitress could make at least $35...

Loretta I was down in Oregon again from the 2nd to 4th and my daughter and family wanted to try them again. This time, we had the best waiter and amazing service. It renewed my hope in this place.

Loretta I make lists, add the ones I didn't get to on the next list and so on. It's a roller coaster, and you know what? You are right. Something may not get done, but the important things are. It's hard not to feel pressure. I hope you and your son are doing well. I...
