and swifter whipes? Also NOT flushable.

Mr. Lou does not know where a single dish or pot goes in our kitchen. He knows where to find most things when he uses them, but cannot put dishes away without making crazy happen in the cabinets. Plates, glasses, pots and pans have a stacking order. But Tupperware? Meh - shove it in tha cabinet and shut the…

Are we the same person?

those look cool and tidy and all - but would be just another thing to wash. I suppose they are dish washer safe, but if you don't have one, you then have to scrub it and get the little holes clean.

Older buildings' plumbing is not meant for that level of solids to go down the drain. I put one in my 1910 condo when I lived there myself. It was for the bits that went down incidentally, but I tried to minimize that. My sister visited and would put down EVERYTHING - or just put it in the sink on top of the…

my husband hates me because I just do not "clean as I go" in ANY task. Prepping for dinner, gardening, home improvement projects.....

I guess we were waiting for a man to say she is innocent - can't believe a woman without proof, dontchaknow?

I am having my middle age crisis this weekend. On Friday, I was presented with a fluke chance to take someone's spot in a Grand Canyon tour - hike down from South Rim, two nights at Phantom Ranch, and hike out - a spot for Mr Lou was pending. I scrambled and had vacay approved, just in case. Then we looked up…

thank you for the clarification. That is bad

there must be something in my eye

nope. I use soap quite sparingly and do not physically scrub most of me. By design, after being taught to use soap everywhere.

Mr Lou is from South America. Every so often we encounter a new "American" item that he has not been exposed to yet. A few years ago, we were at a street fair and he had his first funnel cake. He looked at me with such dismay - "why have you been keeping this from me?"!

mr. Lou was working in the area, and ate there often, and the server often brought it up because Mr. Lou kept asking her about it and then teasing her along the lines of "and now you just get us - poor geologists and not movie stars. I'm sorry ". Mr. Hanks made quite an impression on this woman.

According to a truck stop waitress in Wells, NV, Tom Hanks is a really nice guy and a good tipper. He was passing through with his son and stopped for some food.

I have to say - I must not get out much. I have never been to a place with a perfume ban. I don't particularly wear it, so I might not notice such policies. I can certainly say that my office doesn't have such a policy - I had to ask, very nicely, that someone not use that "scentsie" disperser - that stuff…

I read this early in the day and seethed under the surface all day. I had Mr Lou read this and he , who was raised amid Muslim and Hindu culture, but not in India, appeared physically ill. Mr Lou is a man of action. He was upset. I am not proud of this snippet that sprang out of my mouth, but I will own my…

I know that many will think I am crazy, but I cannot live in a closed up home. We do not have airconditioning, so the windows are open in the summer at night. Our front windows, toward the street, do not have window coverings that we close often - I like looking in when I arrive home from walking the dog,…

we sought out a "Nevada Ranch Dog" so my husband could have a field dog - he is a geologist- he asked some rancher where he was working if they knew of some puppies. After the ranchers got to know Mr Lou, they deemed him worthy, and we got our Doggie Lou. She would go with Mr Lou in the field - they were…

My border collie (she's pure in her heart), is soooooo smart. I wish we had her in agility when she was small, but she is a 2x a day frisbee catcher. She likes to put on a bit of showmanship, spinning in circles as she waits for the frisbee to descend, jumping all for feet off the ground for a dramatic catch. …

I'm going to out myself. I have seen Amber Rose in headlines 3 times today, and really don't know who she is..... I also cannot differentiate the kardashians. Small k intended. Why do we allow them this much space?
