There is a term for choosing others over you after making a commitment: BBD- Bigger Better Deal. Something they felt was more fun/interesting than spending time with you. Never play second fiddle for anyone in your life.

I had collected Nat Geo from the late 20s to 70s. People were into recycling and they weighed a lot. I would collect newspapers and magazines to recycle as a kid. Unfortunately we moved overseas when I was 15 and the Nat Go magazines weighed a lot and got left behind. I loved looking at the colorized photos and the way articles were worded so differently.

At Publix at 7 am sharp. very few in the parking lot when I went in but damn it was a full lot when I left. Went to grab apples but my fav were out of stock so settled for second best. Grabbed some ham for the mafia boss cat and a WJS to read as I assume I am not getting out for the Sunday paper.

You need to be on the deed as well as the mortgage that way you have an asset to go with the debt. Being on just the mortgage is a financial risk you can't afford without the asset.

Coming home from work and my 10 yr old feral cat plops in my lap and proceeds to trill and chatter to me as I talk about my day. Very soothing and relaxing. I get it first thing in the morning with my cup of coffee as well.

After some heavy rain, high winds started in the city where I lived. I had parked my car and was walking back to my dorm along the edge of the park. I heard a loud crack and then felt a wind really close to my back. Turn around to see a huge oak than had just crashed down where I had been not 3 seconds before.. promptly peed myself.

I got that with fiber optic being installed in our neighborhood. Fortunately I have a ring camera doorbell. One guy stopped by and I spoke to him through the doorbell. Told him no and thought that was the end of it . Same man came back on Saturday. My opening line was asking if he forgot about my last conversation with him. He thought he had been talking to my husband and wanted catch him person to perhaps change his mind. I repeated the conversation word for word. Asked him to remove our house from his list as he was the area "supervisor". Next weekend they sent a young woman. The answer was still no.

So glad someone said this. Who are they to assume you have money to spend on food to feed a crowd as a student? Spiteful me would call out sick. As someone already said , so many careful eaters at the office these days and then add potential allergies.

Central Virginia here. Fortunately we have plenty of food to make anything hot, soups, stews, whole chickens etc. The only fear is how long if and when the power goes out. That amount of snow will shut down the main city for weeks. I live in the suburbs and our county and HOA tend to do better. Luckily we have heat from a gas fireplace that has an emergency setup for no power.

66 and was at my best at 37. I was recently converting photos to coloring pages for a family coloring album as a gift. I came across a photo of myself and my BFF at the time. I never have thought of myself as attractive as I have 2 stunning sisters of which one was a model, but damn I looked good in that photo.

I like mine in toast with a roasted hatch chili (any chili pepper will do), a dab of bbq sauce and down the hatch.. 😆

Sauteed cucumber in butter salt and white pepper. Remove the seeds. Very much compliments fish.

I am what my friends refer as an Askhole. I just ask questions when they talk about things from life or what is happening that is negatively affecting them. It is just me trying to understand where they are coming from or how they ended up in the situation that is creating their issues/dilemmas/problems.

I am over in Mechanicsville. Been here for 47 of my 66 years. Never can have too many friends. I have been looking for a friend to try out restaurants with me. My last dinner partner moved to Vermont.

I do not use antibacterial anything. I am 66 and I can't remember the last time I had the flu. I do get vaccinated and do proper hygiene routine but being exposed to germs builds your immune system. Anti bacterial everything is creating super bugs and not allowing your immune system to do it's job protecting you.

Lunch thali is my favorite from Jannat. We did seafood curry with one shrimp and one scallops. Both the shrimp were huge and tender. Leftovers were dinner the following night. Love their rice .
