    What object do you hold dear?

    My Uncles Purple Heart Medal. He lied and went in the Navy at 16. Then he went in the Marines where he got his medal. A huge brown crockery mixing bowl that was my Great Grams. When I was young we were a team. She was the boss and I was the "mixer". She would put in the ingredients and I...

    Do you have trouble eating out?

    I rarely eat out but when I do Ive noticed that a lot of the restaurants around here are now into "gourmet". I like plain simple food. No secret sauces. No weird spices. I dont want anything "blackened" aka burnt. And no spicy. Yes I know Im boring. :D I find sitting alone in a restaurant to...

    A morning visitor today

    My barn had a bad infestation in the past. WD40 worked for me. You need the can with the attached straw that pivots. The loose straw wont stay attached. BTDT. WD40 is oily and can stain so maybe a tarp if that bothers you. Its toxic to bees but also to you so try not to snort it. Some gloves and...

    Do you prefer sun rise or sun set?

    Sun set since Im not a morning person. The only way I ever see the sun rise is if I stay up all night. I have seen the sun rise. It was okay. Then I went to bed. :D

    Is it hard to get just the right temp. for sleeping, or when you're awake?

    I like my bedroom cold. I still have the window ac on in the bedroom. I have hot water heat so fiddling with the thermostat doesnt bring instant gratification. I have three zones. I can keep the bedroom and the upstairs cool. The living room side warmer. I havent turned the heat on yet this...

    Women and their facial makeup…

    Sexless members of Senior Forum

    I know. I thought he was a girl at first. #sorry Mines pretty self explanatory. There arent very many guys named Veronica. Ive learned to be wary of pronouns. They and all that. Especially on the phone. Sometimes he sounds like she and visa versa.

    Do you periodically inventory your pantry and refrigerator…..

    Im learning to freeze things too. I think I will finiish it up before it goes bad but then I dont and then I end up tossing it cause I cant remember how long its been in there. I now mark my condiments with the date I open them. The condiment count down doesnt start till you open them. I also...

    Do you periodically inventory your pantry and refrigerator…..

    I use a magic marker to mark the dates on stuff. I rotate so new stuff goes in the back. That way when I look in there those dates nag me to eat up the old stuff first. I hate to shop. I tend to stock up when I go so I have a pretty stocked pantry and freezer. My problem is more the fridge...

    Age yourself with a store that no longer exists.

    I really missed Penneys and Sears when they closed. I used to buy a lot of the husbands clothes from their Big & Tall catalog. Its sad how many stores and restaurants have closed. I remember a lot of them. Macys is still open here.

    A new sneaky scam to watch out for.

    Sorry I wasnt clear. When I looked up the banks number it was the same number as the number that showed up on my cell. The sneaky part was that in their message they asked me to call back on a totally different number. This number was NOT the same as the banks number. If I did business with...
