    How can I quit smoking soon?

    @ebaker If you almost die from CHF and COPD then have to take meds regularly....you will quit. Trust me- unless your ready to go.. I was not.

    Are the holidays too contrived-I'm tired of the perfunctory 'family' get together/dinner at this point.

    If they didn't bother to call or come see us all year long- no sense in coming on the holiday. One year we had shrimp gumbo for Cmas and this year we will have a Mexician fiesta Xmas😁. Very very low key😉

    90-year-old Florida man arrested for second time in a week after feeding the homeless again

    If this is what a your family members do then. - okay..otherwise No. Personally I don't want to eat holiday leftovers for a week so I would decline taking home.

    A very unnecessary and stressful trip to the ER all because of a BP machine.

    I did have my machine checked so it is working well. I have gone from high to now way too low. Was so low this morning and did not feel well. In nutshell... Very low on left side...whoa - much higher on the right side. Fill in ER doctor said go with right side. Since when ? Why has no one ever...
