    Nannie had just got up and sat in the recliner just as I was coming downstairs. I fed her and gave her the meds, and now I have to take her into the bathroom to put some clothes on her ... the ones...

    Gazing up at the stars on a very cold, dark night gives me the loneliest feeling .... like being in a place absent of any warmth and having the sensation of being so lost. It is a genuinely, truly...

    It got down to 19 degrees last night; today's high will be all of 42 degrees. And, as Nannie observed, "It is BRIGHT out there!". But sunshine does not equal warmth today! Brrrr! Nannie has been...

    To get everything done today, I should've started my day at 9 AM, but it is just after 12 noon and so far all I've done is drink coffee. Can't leave the house until Chatty CG arrives, and then it will...

    It is once again as cold as the beegeebers (and they fall out of trees like iguanas!) and deceitfully sunny. I have been awake for almost 2 hours.....wanting to go back down to the kitchen for a 2nd...

    I lived in Cambridge, Mass. after I graduated after high school. It was the first time I was aware of essentially being invisible and I absolutely LOVED IT! After being 'picked on' so frequently when...

    My mother (an RN for 50 years) always said that if people stayed home when they were sick ...instead of going to school or work....there would be far fewer shared illnesses. She kept me out of school...

    PS: I have always felt it is so weird that nurses are not 'allowed' to be sick and must work regardless. Makes no sense. But what

    Why, when I click on the 'up' arrow, is there a little box that appears and says, "Your reaction has been removed," but then the up arrow count goes up by one number. Wha??? I'm not awake enough to...

    President Biden thread

    No Stars In My Eyes replied to Beerman's topic in U.S. Politics's Talk Politics

    Personally I am glad Biden pardoned his son, just so Trump can't "git 'im" once he is sworn in. You know if Trump could, he would be on Hunter like white on rice. Just my opinion, not looking for a...

    Woke up to my phone ringing; it was SiL outside the back door; Nannie had an appt w/ her primary--as a follow-up to her ER visit for her most recent fall, and to re-write scripts for her meds. She...

    My dog alarm barked at 3:40 AM, so I went downstairs and yes, Nannie was sitting in her recliner in total darkness. She didn't know how long she'd been up, nor why she got up. She 'didn't know' it was...

    I read a review of this one (by Tom Gliatto) in PEOPLE magazine. The last paragraph made me give a little laugh....like 'hah!' The second time I read it, it made me smile even more because the more I...

    Send some of that soup to me if there are any leftovers! It can't be Christmas time YET, because I have not heard "Pa-rum-pum-pum-pum." on the radio or a store's overhead speakers. And, I gotta...

    Brrrr! We had a "hard freeze" last night. I think it is supposed to get up to the high 40's or low 50's today. But it is sunny, anyway, not that it helps warm anything up much. I slept pretty...

    Nannie was returned home at 1:45 PM. Now, with her belly full, she is sleeping. I will be going across the street shortly to get a plate from the neighbors (who are better cooks than SiL, or at least...
