    Who just wants to talk about their daily lives and concerns. No politics etc

    Son came by to pick up some stuff I had for him. You should have seen his face lite up when he saw me in the kitchen packing up the stuff for ruebens. His wife does not make this so he is always thrilled for these sandwiches

    Cold water for laundry

    I always use cold water now. When my son was here, I had to use warm or hot on some of his things. He is a personal trainer and can get quite stinky LOL.

    A lady in a wheelchair asking for money outside McDonalds

    I won't give money but if they are outside the grocery and look like they really need help I will buy them a little food. Things like peanut butter, jelly, tuna packs, crackers, things that won't spoil if they are homeless. They also very much appreciate a couple of rolls of toilet paper...

    What's for dinner ( or lunch )

    What have you bought recently?

    The kids are really struggling right now with all the price increases in every area. If it was just one thing, not such a problem but it is everything. I placed a big order at Amazon for household and personal care items so they won't have to worry about those for a while. As usual I will...

    Embarrassing question about stools

    I will say increase the fiber in your diet. More veggies, fruits, and legumes. The doctor asked me to use carrots and cucumbers for snacking. I have added more fruits and vegetables that normally were not a interest for me. Asparagus, strawberries, squash. I have finally grasped the concept...
