You absolutely can. I had a huge oak go down in my yard during a storm. It was the reason we chose this lot to build our house on! I still get a little sad when I go into the woods and see the stump, and when the light is brighter in the house during the summer because that massive canopy is...

Heck, I forgot I wrote this. Dang, I'm gonna quit my job and become a fortune teller! Look for me on late night informercials. 🔮

For me, I've never had puppies, but always gotten dogs between 3 - 7. That can still be a 10+ year commitment. I'm mid-50's now and if things go well, the current dog will get me to 60-ish. I think by then (based on current pain levels) my days of long walks, ball throwing, etc. will be over. Or...

I have very little desire to travel after retirement. I've tried over the years. Been to Europe, taken some cruises, visited some other states, and of course, Disney. In general, I hate it. Disney was the best of the lot because of the "bubble." We could drive down (I hate flying these days. I...

Trixie Belden as a kid, and then later, Couples in jr. high.

We went last year and I was... underwhelmed. I'd seen some of their games on ESPN+ and it looked like a hoot, but in person it just wasn't as good. We got lucky and got free tickets through a work event. I mean, it was entertaining, but nothing I'd do again. Maybe they were having an off night...

My only advice is make sure your auto insurance covers you while driving for Instacart. If you get in a wreck while working, many policies won't cover you for "commercial use" of your vehicle. You may have to get a special rider or addendum to your policy to cover you. I know a couple of people...

Probably makes me terrible, but I sit Indian style, not criss cross applesauce or whatever you call it today. I also still make Indians in canoes for my niece, instead of ants on a log.

And if you're "fortunate" enough to live to be old and you end up in a care home, it's like being a kid again. Want to go somewhere? You cant. Want to stay up late? You probably can't because the ward has quiet hours. Don't want what's served food-wise? Too bad. That's all you're getting. So the...

And most of these papers, journalists, and magazines that are bleating about this have photoshopped models and products to within an inch of their lives. Somehow it's not a problem to nip in a waist or enlarge some... things... or make a Big Mac look edible. But tweaking a family photo is a...

Once I get beyond the chores that need to be done, DH and will play board games, or I'll read or work on Lego or a jigsaw puzzle. Sometimes I devote time to learning new languages, or studying something just for the same of studying it because it's interesting to me. (Lately I'm studying art...

I cannot understand the hoopla. Notice it wasn't captioned "Look how well I'm recovering," in which case you'd expect a recent photo. No, it was captioned "Happy Mother's Day", which means all it is is a snap of her and her kids that could have been taken any time and posted to mark, wait for...

So much... I'm one of those people who goes all in on everything. I have zero restraint and too much excitement for new stuff. Fortunately, I'm usually "all in" on only one or two things at a time. Something catches my eye and I'll run with it for a few years before running off with something...

If only Brooks hadn't butchered the Dyad. It was one of the few shoes that fit my wide, wonky feet, but they ruined it a few models back. I switched to Hoka for a while, until they butchered the Bondi, and now I'm in New Balance again (which was previously good, then butchered, then improved...

Surgery was like two weeks later. It was pretty obvious what was going to have to happen, so they went ahead and put me on the schedule. In the meantime, they tried ice, rest, brace, light PT, drugs, etc. and it didn't get any better (as expected). It was about two months before I could do much...

I had this happen years ago. MRI showed that the tear was big and pieces of the meniscus had gotten into the joint. I had to have surgery to remove it and repair everything. Hope this isn't the case for you. And I'm sorry if it is!

Yeah, and there's nothing to be gained except a worldwide freak out over it. Everyone is different in their response to treatment and the course of the disease. If it's something that is thought of as easily treatable and everyone gets excited, but then he goes downhill, then that's bad. If it's...

FTFY. I think the whole thing was a show, so he wouldn't get slammed in the media for not coming. I'm not sure he really wanted to come, or even thought it was necessary at this juncture, but felt like he had to for "optics." The rumors are that he and Megan are desperate to come in from the...

Yeah, I saw a female Dr. on Sky news who said much the same. She said there are a lot of organs in that general area and they might have seen something anywhere, or any advance tests may have shown something off. Bladder, urethra, bowel, scrotum, etc. Any tissue taken during the procedure would...

Hopefully they caught it early and it won't be a huge deal. No one's ready for another funeral and another coronation so soon. But... It's a reminder that he isn't a young man and his reign is never going to be long. His grandfather and mother had cancer (apparently Elizabeth had bone cancer...
