    Do you have Pets?

    After having dogs and cats all my life I made the decision not to adopt another dog. I have 2 senior cats. The eldest is over 20 and has the feline equivalent of senility. He has good days and not so good days and my intent is to maintain him as long as there are more good days and the bad days...

    Another EO: Dept Of Treasury To Phase Out Paper Checks; Funds Delivery Electronic Only

    It’s not surprising that all of us here are already fully plugged in to technology. I was trying to remember when all our personal banking went online and I think it was before 2010. I was working in a one employee business at the time and I had to ask several times to convince my employer to...

    Another EO: Dept Of Treasury To Phase Out Paper Checks; Funds Delivery Electronic Only

    I was thinking gold dust. It hasn’t been all that long and there’s still gold in them thar mines, at least in this part of the country. ;) Personally, I have no problem with this in current government conditions. But, I think several concerns are at play. People fear government control and...

    Rented or bought home

    I own. It's not grand, just a small one story but all that I need. Prices are up a lot here too and there aren't enough rentals, although that is improving since the pandemic.

    Another EO: Dept Of Treasury To Phase Out Paper Checks; Funds Delivery Electronic Only

    There's been a flurry of executive orders today (Tuesday), some already raising the ire of the Left and so-called watchdog groups who don't want their grifts to go away. This Executive Order, Modernizing Payments To and From America’s Bank Account, appears to be passing under the radar; or...

    Who did you last speak to ?

    The cat, both of them, rather firmly, not that they were impressed.

    Favourite brand of car

    My last two cars have been Subaru Outbacks. The current one is 5 years old and very low milage. It’s AWD and does very well in snow and is good for my current needs. Subarus sold in the US are made in the US.

    Cody's Health Problems

    It’s hard to have several health problems going on at once but it sounds like you are doing a really good job taking them on as soon as you can. Uncertainty is the worst thing, I think. Once you have all the information you can make good plans. I hope you get the best answers and everything...

    NASA reveals what's next for astronauts safely back on Earth after nine months stuck in space

    Maybe the dolphins just appreciate Elon Musk’s dedication to getting these astronauts home. (y)

    They just splashed down successfully, right on time! There’s TV coverage. There are safety checks to do and then the astronauts come out. It’s good to see success. SallyForth, I like your user name. It’s very clever. I was disappointed that things haven’t worked out better in the Middle East...

    Good morning, lovely people. The sun is shining and all is well in my world for now and I hope it is the same in yours. However, we have high wind warnings for later today so we may be dodging a few things later on, things like tree limbs, falling fences, flying trampolines and disappearing...

    Reading books

    Yes, I’ve been a reader all my life. I started by carrying a book around and begging everyone in the family to read it to me. Then I fed my habit at the library and bookmobile. Now I use a Kindle. I can have hundreds of books in my purse any time I travel. So, do you have bookmobiles in Europe?

    Nutrition: Fats and Oils

    I vaguely recall the big fuss that people made about McDonald’s fries when they switched from beef tallow to vegetable oil. I looked it up and it was 1990. I would have guessed older than that. So now we’re going back. I was curious about buying tallow now. Safeway doesn’t have it. Walmart does...

    Nutrition: Fats and Oils

    What goes around, comes around, literally. If you live long enough you see a re-run of all the popular opinions, fads, etc. I think you’ve got something there in thinking a lot of it is about profits. On the other hand statistics are showing a lot more young people are getting cancer and...

    Do you prefer the winter or summer months?

    I prefer the variety of 4 seasons. I enjoy both my AC and the gas fireplace in their respective seasons. It's starting to warm up a bit now and I wouldn't need the fireplace every night but my elderly cat doesn't accept that. When it starts getting dark he sits in front of the fireplace and...

    Retail Stores Locked Up Items

    I can think of several practical fixes but they would likely be considered political. Nearly every topic involves politics in the US. I'm not sure if the political definition is the same in the UK as in the US. I don't shop the giant stores in person anymore. If it's groceries at WalMart I...

    Hmmm…apparently auto-merge happens if you post again right away, never mind if you wanted to separate the comments. Oh well, not important. I would separate this one but…. Faye, just imagine how confusing it all was when you didn’t know the miners or that there were mines. I liken it to...

    Good morning to all the lovely people! 🌞 How’s it going so far? 1742129190 Would that be the Roger Miller of ‘You Can’t Roller Skate In A Buffalo Herd’ fame? 😁
