Breeze

me @dfollin (27271) • United States 17h

I live on the top of a hill and there very usually NO breeze up here. This afternoon there was a little bit of breeze. Usually we have to walk down to the bottom of the hill to get the breeze. If it were up to me I would live...

JB_girl I don't live near the water, but I'd love to someday. I've read that breathing in the sea air near coastal areas can help relieve nasal congestion. Plus, the breeze is so relaxing

JB_girl I subscribed to Netflix, so I've been busy binge-watching TV series. That's why I've been a bit absent from myLot. I'm currently rewatching Bones

snowy @snowy22315 (209860) • United States 19h

I know it is kind of early for most, but do you know what you are going to make for supper yet? I am making a repeat of a delicious burger I had the other day. It had mushrooms and mozzarella, and everything bagel seasoning. It...

It’s not how I would do it but …,

Fiacre Banks @xFiacre (14896) • Ireland 23h

As well as making sandwiches and baking buns, I’ve observed that following a death where I live, move and have my being, people wash windows in preparation for a funeral. It’s not exactly a traditional custom, but more of an...

Today's disappointment

BarBaraPrz @BarBaraPrz (51933) • St. Catharines, Ontario 29 Jun

I had my second eyeball checkup this morning at 8:30... Everything seems to be coming along just fine. That's not the disappointment. But because Juanita is used to traffic congestion in Hamilton, we left here at 7:30. But there...

So long, Silk!

Amber @AmbiePam (121994) • United States 21h

So I ordered groceries, and had them delivered yesterday morning. I thought they’d all been put up; that was at 7am. At 6:15pm I walked by my front door, and noticed a bag that had kind of fallen behind the credenza. Inside the...

Sometimes people need to keep their opinions to themselves

Sissy15 @sissy15 (12917) • United States 28 Jun

Today I taught my son to make steak, and it reminded me of how far we have come. When my son was little, he would eat almost anything put in front of him (except ironically pizza), then around four, he became really picky. We...

Busy Day

TaxiLady @Ghostlady (2382) • United States 29 Jun

Not Really, but I DID do Laundry, and had to get my small step ladder out to clean the Microwave Oven. It is over the Stove, and I can barely reach it to put my oatmeal in there every morning. I reached up there yesterday and...

Sometimes You Just Have to Find the Fun

Jim Bauer @porwest (113287) • United States 26 Jun

It's hard to describe anything related to dementia as "fun," but some days you do have to struggle to find the lighter side of it just to get through it. It's never easy. It's very sad to watch someone you love and have known all...

Oh Tropical Heaven and Hell

RasmaSandra @RasmaSandra (98617) • Daytona Beach, Florida 26 Jun
