    Are you a caffeine junkie? Soda guzzler? Tea/coffee addict?

    That is a drop in my bucket. I was drinking 3 2 litre bottles of diet coke a day. I am down to one and have the other two with water. I just save the bottle and fill with water for the rest of the day.

    Not that anyone is asking

    Thanks for sharing that. I know it was very personal of me to ask such a question. I have found it important to share the details of my husband's cancer so people can understand that is not wise to put off going to the doctor. Just can be a little thing that is so much more than we think. It...

    What have you bought recently?

    I love to have a nice perfume for special days. I do not use it often, not for everyday but I do enjoy putting it on to go out. I do not know what it cost these days but last time I bought it the cost was about $70 for a 3 ounce bottle. I wear Sung by Alfed Sung.

    Want to talk about stuff?

    Don't hate on Texans, there are so many that disagree with elected officials. Part of this is my fault by not voting. I do not harbor any anger for people that come across the border. They are just trying to find a a better place to live and work. Most of their hard earned money is sent back...

    Low water pressure in hot water tap of kitchen sink

    As a wise man once said, "Aunt Bea, just call the man, call the man!" I also am a woman living alone and I try to fix things on my own but sometimes there is a need for the professional help to fix the problem. Just be in there and watch, ask questions. You might be able to fix it if it happens...

    What have you bought recently?

    It means you may have to wash your hair because you received your social security payment. At least we will be able to buy shampoo, little else but you can have lovely clean hair this month LOL!

    Would you ever consider retiring in the city/town/hamlet of your birth?

    Sounds like my kind of place, the little town I knew growing up has exploded, it makes me sad.

    Would you ever consider retiring in the city/town/hamlet of your birth?

    I could see that happening but the cost of living there is ridiculous, even with a lottery win. I think I would just stay here and put the money aside for the kid. You can't miss something you never had. The son I had is still missed everyday!! He is now grown, married, with a family. He...

    @Murrmurr, can you share how she found out? What symptoms made her go the doctor. For my husband it was our 17 year old son. We were all sitting in the den on a Sunday afternoon just talking. Son noticed Dad had a wet area on his jeans and asked what that was. Husband said, I don't know but...

    I would love it! I was an air force baby, born in Paris, France. I spent the first year of my life there. I remember none of it, LOL.

    What's your risk of cancer ?

    He loved it. I would juice every day, enough for him to have a big glass in the morning and have a second glass before bed. He used to joke, this so good, imagine what it would be if I added some vodka!!

    Happy Birthday to you, @hollydolly!

    Happy Birthday!! I hope you are treating yourself well. I have spent most of my birthdays alone since my husband passed. I do however do something just for me. I buy my own cake at a good bakery in town. I fix a nice dinner for myself. I have been known to buy myself a special gift. I did...

    I am glad that she knows the worst of it. It will help her decide how to move forward. I will say for myself, I would prefer palliative care as chemo is so hard. I would be happy to have those last few months, feeling well enough to travel a little, spend time with loved ones. The only thing...

    What's your risk of cancer ?

    I will second that!! My husband included juicing to his diet. There were many fruits and vegetables that made sure he got daily needs met. He seemed to have more energy!!
