    Here's a question for the guys about guns....

    Well, I didn't want to throw them off a bridge, so I asked a friend of my late husband that was also a trap shooter to look up the value of each gun in his book so I had an idea of value before I went to the "shark". I knew they were going to try to take advantage of me (just like at the car...

    What have you bought recently?

    When I got home, I got hubby's wheelbarrow and slid the bags from the trunk to the wheelbarrow. At least I didn't have to worry about how I was going to get them out of the car...haha :)

    When you've not seen actors for a long time.. sometimes it's a surprise

    I agree but it has nothing to do with being a good actor or not....it's all about sex appeal.

    What have you bought recently?

    Went to Lowes and got 2 bags of black mulch on sale. Then I went to Aldi to get a few groceries. Had to have help at Lowes to get the mulch in my car. Those things are heavy!

    How do you keep up with technology?

    I've worked with computers from way back in the day when it was punch cards. I'm glad I've kept up with tech but I'm no expert by any means but I can do a lot of research and when hubby died I did most of the notifications, etc. on the computer.

    Adult children broke into my house and now I moved due to fear.

    Bless your heart :) I think you're doing fine and I envy you that you have kids that love and care about you enough to give you a home.

    How do you keep up with technology?

    Not only is technology hard to keep up with because it changes day to day, but it's expensive. Why is it necessary to spend $50 or more on Alexa just to ask a question? I don't get spending $1,000 or more for a phone. Is Sirius XM really necessary in your car? Is an Apple watch worth spending...

    What Was the Last Movie You Watched?

    A couple nights ago I watched The Company Men with Ben Affleck, Tommy Lee Jones, Chris Cooper, and more. Excellent movie about what happens to executives when GTX folds.

    Is there power in old age?

    Unfortunately, most of the younger generation don't have much respect for their elders. I'm not saying they're all like that, but I'm speaking from my own experience. Case in point....my late husband's 3 grown kids disrespected him by talking down to him. They never took any advice because they...

    Book Lovers, how do you choose your next ‘read?’

    I agree that it seems like it's getting more difficult to find a good read. It seems like anyone and everyone is getting a book published these days...and they're not all "good reads". I also find a lot of mistakes, like punctuation and misspelling. Doesn't anyone proofread any more??

    Book Lovers, how do you choose your next ‘read?’

    I don't follow the crowd...about anything, and that includes book "recommendations" from best seller lists or Oprah. I'm an avid reader. Always have been but I only like certain genre's. I belonged to a book club a few years ago and had no interest in the books that were chosen so I dropped out...

    YouTube one of the most useful apps we have as seniors!

    Love Youtube! I subscribe to several quilting channels and whenever my late hubby needed info on anything, that's the first place we'd look. Hope they don't start charging for it.

    Anyone Watching The Spiderwick Chronicles Fantasy Series on The Roku Channel?

    I watched about 15 minutes worth and that was enough for me :( Not my "jam" as they say.
