We are living in frustrating and annoying times. Recently, at work we had one of the most frustrating days EVER. I won’t get into too many of the details, but let’s just say we had a patient who had requested to make many phone calls. And when I say many, that is exactly what …

Help, I need somebody…
…help, not just anybody. Help! You know I need someone…help!” Anyone who knows me knows that I really am not a Beatles fan (sorry to those who are) but I couldn’t help but think of this song when I decided to write this post. I need some help. I need help from you, my small …
Saving Money on Beauty Products
Anyone who knows me knows that I like to save money. Also, anyone who knows me also knows that I like to buy a lot of products. I have used many strategies over the years to acquire a large collection of all kinds of cosmetics. I also have tips and ideas that will stretch …
Time to be a little silly…
These have been some of the hardest months to deal with in a very long time. Sickness and civil unrest are not fun topics. There have been too many sad and unfortunate stories being reported on in the news. One day I was reading an article online, and it gave a listing of supposed …
“…Lord, I was born a ramblin’ man…”
“…tryin’ to make a living and doing the best I can…” These are crazy times, for sure. What is going on right now is something we’ve never seen before, nor did we ever think we would see. Normally, I am a fairly positive person, and I try to see the good in people, things, in …

The other night, I was struggling to stay awake – because I was filling out one of those Facebook quizzes. Why I felt it was so important to give my answers instead of getting sleep, I don’t know. The post said something about posting this stuff so people can get to know little things …

Recent Frugal Meals
Last week I went grocery shopping and was very surprised at the high prices in the meat department. I decided right then and there that I wasn’t paying those prices. Instead, I found alternatives to what I originally had planned on buying. Since then I have been making fairly frugal meals, and I would …
Being over 50 is good, and here is why…
Some days it is hard for me to believe I’m as old as I am. Yet again, there are other days that I feel much older. This, I’ve been told is a normal part of aging. I don’t like it. Even though I get tired easier and don’t bounce back from things as easy …
