I stopped taking all supplements years ago. They are way too expensive, effects are dubious and who knows what country ingredients are from or what regulations they go through. Just my 2 cents.

Now that gardening season is starting up, I am going to cancel the NYT, WaPo and WSJ ($2 ea per month) subscriptions that keep me "informed" during the cold, winter months.
God Save Texas by Lawrence Wright. Having spent so many years living there and absorbing its self-obsessed culture, it is interesting to read about why it is the way it is.
We have gotten a small refund for the past five years so was shocked to see that we will owe $1000 this year:(
The four year anniversary brings a lot of thoughts to mind about how things have transpired since. I don't know if it was the Trump era or Covid but even now, many things feel off and the level of...
Maybe I'm too sensitive but this constant emphasis on the dire consequences of being older just magnifies our cultural obsession with youth.
I don't know, Tradd, as I've never dealt with this before. I do use ear plugs since DH snores and perhaps that has led to some sort of buildup. I would be afraid to stick a bobby pin in my ear though.
My rant is having a blocked ear for two weeks now following a cold. I have tried every DIY thing out there but none have cleared it. Finally made a doc appt. so hoping I don't have to pay $300 to...
I recall a time during one of the 1980s recessions that we were flat broke. We had a new baby, were both laid off from our jobs, lost our house and could not pay our bills. It was a horrible feeling...
I wonder where higher education fits into the term.
It seems a large chunk of our populace wants this man as their leader again. I don't get it other than he tells them what they want to hear.
I rarely eat red meat anymore but have had a real craving for a steak. Bought two small ribeyes for a somewhat reasonable price and DH is going to cook over mesquite. Creamed spinach and a salad.
I am constantly trying to streamline excess things because they feel superfluous. The one thing I have figured out about myself is that I need beauty in my life to feel at peace and that has many...
After two weeks, the drama is over. Watching another human die slowly is grueling. She went a whole week without food or water, gasped for every breath and we all began to wonder why she was...
57 at night - 63 during the day. Probably a reaction to so many incredibly hot days and nights in Texas that I'd just as soon forget.
We have had two neighbors recently lose very young dogs. Cancer of some sort.
Just learned that the assisted living place MIL is staying has been sold to a hedge fund effective March 15. No doubt they will lay off staff and raise prices.
On the subject of weird fashion, this is an actual runway model for some out there designer. Every time I look at it, I crack up.

PJ I think sometimes its just as simple that many young men today are afraid of women for various reasons. Much easier to view porn than do the scary stuff like getting to know someone and go from...
I think they discuss that stuff out in the hallway. MIL actually still mumbles words that make sense and gets angry at the nurses who try to help her so I guess she's still in there. Dh was going to...
It makes me wonder if death was such a long process way back before all the interventions.
MIL has been on morphine and no food or water for 3 days. I think all the weeping and gnashing is making her stay longer.
MIL is finally in the last few days of her life on this planet. All her kiddos have gathered to be near in her last days. She has Covid and pneumonia so shouldn't be long. It is so strange to grow...
I am in Colorado Springs area. 6 inches today. Finally went out and made a little path down the driveway and did the sidewalks. My neighbor saw me struggling and came over to help. Hoping for some...
Here by myself this weekend and naturally the snow is piling up by the hour. DH always does the shoveling so I don't even know where to begin:) No doubt my neighbors will be laughing at my clumsy...
