A year ago, someone stole my license plate while I was in Walmart. I had to go in person to the police station to file a stolen plate report and I had to give the other license plate which I had in my trunk since we only have to display one here to the police. Then they gave me a paper to carry...

Today is also my mom‘s birthday. She has been gone 17 years. She was a wonderful mother.

I cut my potato in half and put butter in the inside. I then wrap it in foil and I bake it. I bake it longer than recommended so that the inside is very done, but yet the skin is still crispy because I like to eat the skin. I absolutely detest a potato that is microwaved and can’t eat it.

Personally, I’ve spent almost my entire life married since the age of 18. I will be 72 in a few months and I have lived alone for five years, which is the longest I have ever been by myself. I actually didn’t think that I’d like it, but I really love it. My home is very peaceful just being here...

Medicare does not require a cognitive test every year. The Medicare wellness exam which includes the cognitive test is not mandatory. I’ve been on Medicare for seven years and I never do the wellness exam. I go to the doctor when I have an issue.

I have mostly had Maltese and even as puppies they do not chew and ruin things. I now have a rescue dog that’s Havanese and wiener dog and she likes to pull the threads of my throw rugs. Luckily she doesn’t do that on my area rugs, but the thread is different and I don’t think she can get a...

My son was supposed to fly to Denver today, but Southwest canceled his flight on Monday saying the weather was going to be too bad and it was going to be too windy. He can reschedule for free.

It’s happening to our mobile home parks in this part of the country too and some of them are really nice. People are free to move their mobile home, but the expense is enormous and many people can’t afford it and even if you can, where are you going to move it to since mobile home parks are...

When I lived in Wisconsin, which has a much colder climate than I have now, it was always nice in the spring to be able to open your windows after having them shut all winter. We didn’t have air-conditioning so opening our windows was necessary. Then my last child had asthma from a year old and...

Classmates is sending those messages and not the actual person. If someone looks at your profile, they notify you over and over hoping that you’ll get curious and then pay the join.

When the weather is nice, I will open the windows for a few hours except that I never open my bedroom window. I’m allergic to most things that grow outside including mold and I have asthma. I only open my windows on days that it’s not windy. It really feels good to have some fresh air in the house.

After I read about the wellness exam, I looked them up online and if your doctor is following the government guidelines, you are not allowed to discuss any of your medical problems during that visit. I’m not going to waste my time going in for an appointment where they are just going to give me...

I had the chemical stress test six months ago early in the morning and I felt horrible afterwards. As soon as I got home, I went to bed and slept for most of the day. Then I was up for a few hours in the evening and went back to sleep. Luckily, the results were good. I would never have one again...

I have never taken a Medicare wellness exam. I read that they are just a money maker for the doctor, which is why they try to do them. You are also not allowed to bring up any medical problems during them or they can’t bill it as a wellness exam. They are supposed to tell you to make a separate...

Yes you are supposed to sit in the back. If for any reason you want to sit in the front you need to ask.
