One of the toilets in my new house (which we have not moved into yet) has one of these.  Now call me silly but if you give me choices for the toi toi, explain those choices to me! Being raised with the idea that a strong flush was to be admired, this is confusing to me. I thought the idea was to t...

New cabinets and paint and even the bushes in front of the house have the tags on them. There is a full fenced yard for my grandpuppy and the house backs up to a park. Tee hee!! Â...

So crabby old man cat Riley gets thyroid meds in tablet form every day.  Actually it's only a quarter of a tablet, twice a day.  He also gets an oral stool softener twice a day.  I enjoy giving it to him SO much!  Not.  Now Jake needs the same thyroid meds, same amount, same form.  Thank God s...

My laptop decided to give up the ghost a week ago, turning itself off for no apparent reason whenever it felt like it. Enter new laptop. It took me a week to transfer what I wanted to the new computer, moved some stuff to an external hard drive, took my time to get it all right. This morning I prono...

There is an entire group of business people I wish would just throw themselves into the nearest erupting volcano.  They are the weight loss vultures. Don't you love the commercials that say "don't try our product unless you have more than 30 lbs to lose" as if it will be too strong for someone wit...
