Cold as an ice box

Some of you may be asking "What is an ice box?" Well it isn't an outside phone booth or a mail box on the corner. However at times they probably are pretty cold. In the earliest days of rural America and on farms all over the US (probably styled from our European ancestors) provisions had to be made... Sign in to see full entry.

Where do you go after retirement?

I sure don't want my residence to be an assisted living facility. Because of that I am living each day to the fullest and trying to keep my mind active and my body in working order. It seems to me the best time to plan for retirement is when you are young. I learned this later in life, but it... Sign in to see full entry.

Love in the afternoon

Ah, quiet be my heart your beating is so quick and holding tight the telephone causes my neck to crick. Pardon the poem but it is the truth. I just talked 2 hours to my beau in Arizona. We discuss politics, weather, foods, religion and the comfort of being next to each other which hasn't taken place... Sign in to see full entry.

New mattress has flaws,

Believe me I am no heavyweight, just normal weight I think. Recently I spent nearly $1,000. for a mattress (Serta) on sale. It is a queen size. I realized it was a different top, called European. The top pillow part is more compact than the previous one I owned. Well, after a week I realized my... Sign in to see full entry.

Feeling a little light hearted?

Sometimes I wonder where all these expressions start. My dad had a list of unusual expressions. He must have made up a few because I haven't heard them elsewhere.

I found a low cut sweater,

and it really fits correctly! I am picking up my wardrobe in anticipation of a new life with my fella. These past few years I have been dressing for girls and that isn't all too bad.
