    Answering surveys for rewards

    I am doing a really interesting study survey right now, and it is about fitness tracker watches. They sent me two smart watches and two smart phones that the watches connect with, and a blood pressure cuff. I wear one watch on each wrist and then change partway through the study, plus take BP...

    Bad storms predicted for the Souteastern states this weekend.

    That is good that it didn’t stick to the trees, @Nancy Hart . Maybe it came down as rain or even sleet, and then froze down on the ground instead of freezing on the trees. It is warmer here today than yesterday, but the temp is steadily going down, and will be in the teens here overnight. We...

    "Meals", cooked by you.

    I just can’t make that picture into a cheese burger and fries, @Jake Smith . It looks like some kind of little pieces of toast , maybe ?

    Ask Yvonne Smith

    Yuck, NO ! Someone from here invited me to a forum they had and it was all for people who like horror films, and even the avatars were awful and creepy. I said thank you for inviting me, but this forum is not for me at all. I like films that are more of intellectual suspense, for want of a...

    BREAKING: Minneapolis latest: Man shot dead by federal agents

    These people should understand that you can’t just try to shoot or kill police officers and not expect them to shoot back. I don’t know why that is so hard for these people to understand ? If they keep trying to kill police, then we will have to send in even more police to arrest these people...

    Bad storms predicted for the Souteastern states this weekend.

    So far, no snow where we are (blue dot on the map), but lots of it all around, and over a lot of the whole US right now, plus wind chills way below zero in the northern states, even if the snow is missing them. The temperature here is hovering right around freezing, but actually getting warmer...

    Last thing you ate

    I made a pot of pinto beans in the crockpot, just in case we lose power and we need food that we can eat without having to cook it. It has been cooking since last night on medium, and is pretty much done now, and I just had a bowl of that for lunch.

    Flu / cold

    Having the temperature go up enough to kill the invading germs is natures natural defense, and people who take something to keep from getting a fever are just prolonging the illness, because as long as you are not running a fever, the nasty little bugs just keep on multiplying. And they live on...

    Flu / cold

    If I think I am getting some kind of a cold, I start with putting drops of hydrogen peroxide in my ears. If you hear it fizzing, then it is killing infection in there, and that can help stop a cold before it gets started. Salt and vinegar help a sore throat, so I slowly munch a dill pickle if...

    Trump 2.0 - What are your thoughts?

    I am not upset at all, Marie. I have never heard President Trump say anything except that we were going to keep departing all the illegals, but maybe you heard him speaking somewhere that I didn’t hear it. In any case, he is deporting them as fast as he can, and the other presidents didn’t...

    Trump 2.0 - What are your thoughts?

    President Trump has never said that if you have a job , you can stay. If you look at what ICE is doing, they are arresting the illegals with criminal charges, and deporting the other illegals back home. If they have a family, they can take their children along with them, of course. The...

    What's your Weather like today

    When I lived in north Idaho and it got so cold, I sometimes carried a bucket of really hot water out to the horse trough to melt the ice, and if that was not doable, I took the big sledgehammer and smashed through the ice with a large enough hole that the animals could drink before it froze over...

    What's bothering you right now?

    BRRR ! That sounds way too cold, @Mary Stetler ! Did you make your alpaca socks or did you buy them somewhere ? Back when I had a llama , I wanted to learn how to process their fleece and spin it into yarn. I even bought a spinning wheel, but then I moved and lost it, and never learned how...

    What do you collect?

    I used to have Morse stuff, but I have been a vagabond most of my adult life, and things either have gotten lost along the way, or I just could not keep moving them. What is left is mostly still up in storage in Idaho, and i don’t know if I will ever even see it again.

    Trump 2.0 - What are your thoughts?

    The thread is fine, and people can discuss all of it here as well as on the other threads we have about current events here in the US. I was just trying to explain for myself, why I had not responded to it before now. I am a rambling kind of person anyway, and when there are 10 different...

    Ukraine war latest: Trump envoys land in Moscow - as Ukraine, US and Russia set for war's first 'trilateral meeting'

    I think that Z. Has worn out his welcome just about everywhere by now, and his shameless begging for more money while refusing to negotiate any kind of peace agreement with Russia. Even Europe is tired of sending him money , and they do not want to send troops there either. Every time it looks...

    Last meal cooked

    I found a chuck roast on closeout at Kroger on our Tuesday Kroger shopping day, and yesterday, I cooked it and made pot roast. Today, i am taking the leftovers, adding a can of Rotel tomatoes and a can of chili, and we will have kind of a chili with veggies meal.

    Last thing you bought

    I order most of my groceries online and have them delivered nowadays, Bobby hates going shopping, but he does not mind bringing the groceries inside after they are delivered, so it works out fine for us as a compromise. I ordered one of the little folding carts that we can use to bring the...
