(I’ll be back with my answers in a bit.) Do you iron? If so, how often? How much? Do you make your bed? If so, how often? To what extent? Do you wash dishes by hand or by machine? Does it bothe...

I still feel awful. And scared.

This is Thursday August 24th and I am optimistic. It’s 6:17 according to my computer and the sky is getting light in the east. The dogs want me to get moving. I took a bath this morning and ki...

Does anyone buy food as in groceries on line? If so, how does it work and how do you like it? My grandmother would call the grocery store most mornings and give her order. One of the grocery bo...

What can I do?

Here is another photo that I uploaded totally blind. I’m taking the pics directly from the camera card and the preview function isn’t working. This is a picture of a picture from Agri-News a m...

Gracie’s in the picture too. Let me know if you see her. We were out on the Reno dike yesterday. Cold, windy, the sky was gray and it was almost raining. We were the only people there - ours ...
