  1. I agree about the chemicals. I've always been glad I didn't have a job that required business attire that had to be cleaned. I do have my husbands nice shirts laundered so that I don't have to iron them. As far as my King comforters, they are too nice to launder and I do air them out before I use them.
  2. I have taken my really nice King size ones to the cleaners at the Highlands. When I want to wash the Queen ones I go to the laudromat up where the Ingles/Big Lots is.
  3. Even though they both used heroin, I remember that Jimi choked on his own vomit. an inquest on September 28, 1970 concluded that Hendrix aspirated his own vomit and died of asphyxia while intoxicated with barbiturates Joplin The official cause of death was an overdose of heroin, possibly combined with the effects of alcohol They both passed less than a month apart.
  4. Wow! That's probably the two I would have posted, "Kentucky Rain" makes me tear up when I hear it. I was at home with my first born and heard it on the news and couldn't believe it. I'm sure I called my mama or she called me, she cried and cried. She LOVED Elvis. I took her to see him in Atlanta in 1973.
  5. Some people hate and complain about this site but they're still here. Go figure.
  6. I was channel surfing and found the Godfather........'nuff said. I made some Red Lobster biscuits to go with the spaghetti I made. Too nasty to get out today.
  7. According to the news report, he didn't choke on the pods, he ingested them. Kissimmee authorities responded Friday afternoon to a battered-women's shelter where the child's mother reported she had placed detergent pods — handed out by the shelter — inside a laundry basket on the bed where her son was sleeping. She stepped away, and when she returned, the boy had eaten one packet of the highly concentrated detergent and was starting on a second one, according to Stacie Miller, a Kissimmee police spokeswoman. source
  8. My mother was almost the same only she was on the edge of being a hoarder. She was born in 1931 so she felt the depression and then the war. Oh my, the stuff I just threw away. And I'm with you mei lan on the wastefulness. I still explain to my kids and grandkids about not wasting water. It's one of my things. And I can't hardly stand all the plastic we go through. But that's what the product is in, so what you gonna do? Go with the flow I guess. And I've seen my grandaddy straighten bent nails.
  9. Lord, that sounds like my granny. Washed the foil, hung out those aluminum pie plates and burned all the paper products in the coal stove. They knew how to stretch a dime. Everything was cash. They never had a credit card. It took forever to get my grandaddy to put his money in a bank. Grandaddy built his own house with help from his brothers. They had a cow for milk and grew their own food. Pigs and all. LOL
  10. I heard this on the news. The mother was at a shelter and the pods were in the laundry basket with the clothes. How does a 7 month old get in the laundry basket and eat one and starting on the second one and no one knows?
  11. Too many to count, and from what's been posted on here it's not that good and way overpriced.
  12. I don't drink sodas. I can't remember the last time I had a coke. I do drink sweet tea, but I use sugar. I've never understood using something fake that tastes awful and it's made with what? And if sugar has too many calories, just cut back on the amount. And I never understood folks going back for their 2nd or 3rd helping and they just gotta have their Diet Coke. Like that's going to make a difference.
  13. Lawdy, y'all make me want a kitten. Orrby, such a sweet, sweet story.
  14. When my mother died, I saw what it was to have to go through stuff. She had so much stuff to go through I just put everything in a pod with the thought of going through everything when I retired (last year). Well, it's still sitting in the pod. And then it occurred to me, I need to get rid of my stuff so my kids don't have to go through it. I haven't done either. If I can get my butt in gear by September I could have a yard sale 4 week-ends in a row and make a ton of money. Maybe it will happen. I've got so much stuff. My closets are packed with nice stuff. I literally made
  15. Well, I turned the form in and have gotten two calls from a marshall about the situation with a promise of it getting cut. That's about all I can ask for. I guess my point is, I could search all day for the bank-owned property, call the bank and ask them to maintain the property and cut the grass..............and wait...............and wait. ........... Because it ain't gonna happen. At least with the Marshall involved and notice on the door and a phone call, they might pay more attention to that. Me? They're gonna laugh at me if I call.
  16. I don't understand. The bank is not going to get mad, they're too big to get mad. It's their responsibility and they know it. A neighboring homeowner mad? Who? The neighbors that owned the house moved to Tampa and left the house abandonded.
  17. I've noticed the week before is the worst.
  18. When I was in high school in the late sixties, if a girl got pregnant, she disappeared. She left school and we never saw her again. I can think of 3 right off the bat. And if you had the money, you could fly to New York or Miami and get an aboortzion.
  19. We have a house next door where the folks moved to Tampa after their oldest graduated in May. The bank has taken the house back. It's overgrown. I downloaded the form from PAULDING.GOV, from the Marshall's site, filled it out with the address and the problem. An officer called a couple of days later and I explained that it was bank owned. He called me this past Monday and said a crew would be out within 2 weeks. We'll see. At least I got a response.
  20. LOL. That's what kittens do! Good luck.
  21. I was wondering myself, how do you bounce a car battery?
  22. Omg! How sweet and how cute!!! She's a pretty baby, you did a great job!
