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...

I leave for the hospital for five days early in the morning. The medical taxi will take me and bring me home when I'm done. I packed five pair of sleep shorts, five pair of underwear and five tank tops and one jacket in case I...

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...

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...

Judy Evans Thankfully we don't tip here. We found it a nightmare overseas to try to work out how much to tip.

DE I embarrassed the people sitting at the table next to ours the last time Pretty and I went out to eat. I told the waitress that didn't do anything besides set my plate and cup on the able that she earned $2 as a tip because she didn't check on us, refill our...

Anna Here in Italy the tips are to be "shared" among all waiters, but the "service" is a fixed amount added to the bill, no matter if you ordered a glass of water or a lobster. Tipping is not mandatory, you can if you want to let the waiter know you appreciated the...

Fiacre Banks @noni1959 I’m always happy to tip for good service. What I don’t like is when the card machine gives me the option of tipping. Last restaurant I was at the girl told me if I wanted to leave a tip I should press the yes button on the card machine. I said “I...

Four Walls One of the good things about going to a “regular” restaurant is I know I’m going to get good service; and, in turn, the servers know they’re going to be tipped well. I tip well when I get good service, and I don’t when they don’t deliver. I DO NOT tip...

Marie Coyle I’m glad to see you here, Loretta!! Yes, I have reached the point that I do the things that must be done, to get where we have to go. Anything else I can accomplish is fine, but what doesn’t get done I try not to stress over anymore.
