Yes, they have very ideological differences but they're all just politicians.

I no longer see much difference between the two parties and thus we remain stymied in all endeavors.

Not really ever a true spring here. High 80s yesterday and snow tonight. I just went out and dug up newly planted peppers to bring inside as it will be near or below freezing. Covered the tomatoes...

Not GERD but related tummy issues. I get relief from eating smaller portions of food, no alcohol and drinking herbal teas containing peppermint. I have read that antacids can eventually exacerbate...

Are all these positive tests of new Covid cases done due to mild symptoms? Have they had shots and boosters?

Most potions and lotions today contain dimethicone or some other cheap silicone-based ingredient. Often it is the first or second ingredient. I can't use any of it because it irritates rather than...

I got out my two boxes of summer clothes and exchanged for winter clothes. Came up with one paper sack of clothes to donate. Finally getting rid of a small 1980s stereo set too which we saved all...

Store-hopping is a thing now to look for lower prices. We go out every Wednesday morning to several stores and pick up things on sale as we have always done. Our grocery expenses last month were $25...

I am still waiting to put most seedlings in the ground. Over a month now of ceaseless wind, high temps, drought and now fires. The wind alone would flatten everything.

DH often says when describing an idiot that the best part of that person got left on the sheets. It's all pretty random who comes to be and who doesn't anyway.

Corporations certainly aren't suffering with all this "inflation." I agree we have it quite well compared to so many.

I am reading an older book called Cadillac Desert about the history of water use in the west. All the while...watching neighbors who refuse to accept that we are in serious drought now while they...

I loved this show but missed the first half. Will try to access again.

The hypocrisy of all this bantering about saving precious human life troubles me. Men murder each other daily and violent wars continue endlessly. We kill death row prisoners. Existing unloved and...

Brother and his wife both got Covid followed by the antiviral and then came down with what they called rebound Covid. Haven't heard much about that but jeez we wish this crap would stop.

I was surprised to see that some of the 55+ Sun City houses are now rentals.

Our Safeway had them for .75 each but mostly I see them for 1.25 or higher at groceries. They used to be a staple for us but the higher prices are making them scarce at our house.

Interesting...Regarding deceased pets, I have had a Siamese cat as pets since I was a little girl. I like to think each one contains the sprit of the previous one.

Another benefit of zero alcohol that I can't quite describe is that I seem to be thinking more clearly. I am noticeably more focused on whatever I am doing. I did make a substitute though - one...

DD is wondering about the future of IVF embryo storage and procedures - especially in a state like Texas where she lives. Somehow I think, half the burden and hardship of unwanted pregnancy choices...

Back in some other time, one could buy a house contingent on selling your present home. Many of us who would like to downsize no longer can so supply remains limited. As it is now, you must either...

For quite a while now, I have wanted to stop drinking alcohol of any kind. I was a very moderate drinker for years but just wanted to be out from under the habit. Ironically, it was a lingering tummy...

Such sad stories about lost souls.

That sort of crime is rampant here too. Stealing mail, porch pirates, breaking into cars...As a society, we seem to have bred a slew of near sociopaths who don't know how else to live their lives....

Except for some tomatoes, I start everything from seed or cuttings. The past two years, I have collected seed from various places (including my yard) in the fall and now have around 200 seedlings...
