I am 60. And my bestest new friend out here at my new place is 75. She befriended me as a Walking Woman (she’s exercising after recent back surgery) who happened to catch me outside in my new yard at the crack-o-dawn every day, we have become awesome coffee buddies on my porch when she’s done her 2 miles. She was so…

I said this on facebook (my only post about this entire thing) and I will say it here too:

I made a crockpot meatloaf for the very first time today! No breadcrumbs, pretzel cracker crumbs. 2 fresh banty chicken eggs, homemade BBQ sauce, honey mustard, a smidge of homemade salsa and a bunch of chopped green onions. It is delicious, nom nom.. the heck with taters or veggies, I’ve been ‘sampling’ it all…

I have lived in Mormonville SE AZ (Cochise County) for 30+ years. Worked with and for many, deal with them daily. My now adult son grew up as neighbor and classmate with many of the families that have been here for generations.. and I’ll agree that by every possible thoughtful standard, their religion is a cult.

Im a 60 yr old mostly retired horse trainer. And farm gal. And ranch hand. And field medic/vet tech. I’ve had a lot of bumps and bruises and broken bones and sprains and strains and concussions over the years. I have one really solid criteria when self diagnosing an injury,

Perhaps they arrested him for his own protection? KY is an open carry state..

That’s not cheap, that’s savvy heehee. I’m with you, right up to the haircuts. I either randomly trim my own, or sweet talk a pal into giving me a haircut every year or three. (Disclaimer: I am old, retired, live alone and have spent my entire life working outdoors- it’s waaay too late for an expensive moisturizer or…

Yes! You can listen to what you want, when you want as long as you’re paying attention to the road and traffic. I’ve always thought that the one single greatest asset a trucker can have is unflappibility, ie, low blood pressure. If traffic doesn’t freak you out while driving a small car? Think how awesome it can be to…

Yup! When you’re driving, you’re usually on a delivery schedule BUT! There are many hours while you are off the clock (you may only drive so many hours daily) or waiting for your next load, and it gives you time to Tourist! I got to see so many places that I’d only read about, it was awesome! I grew up in SoCal, but…

Seriously? If you like to travel, and love to drive, truck driving is a great career! It takes skills and confidence, and pays much better than flipping burgers. Plus there’s no dress code, no office cubicles or politics, and nobody watching your every move while you work! I loved it- I made more money and had more…

I’ll say Truck Yeah! Of course I’m American, but I drove Big Rigs in the 1980's on US Highways and it was a great job at least 90% of the time. Yes, while I did occasionally run into some guys that didn’t believe women could do the dirty side of trucking, I went from spiffy trucks on the highways to this ugly old…

LOL! I am a ‘horse people’, and I totally approve both articles here! It seems SOME ‘horse people’ have no clue what constitutes satire. Kudos Mr. Redford, I think every single one of the 1000's of horses I’ve known and trained would have loved this! If they could read of course, horses really aren’t known as the…

Thanks Hachi-ko, it is illegal. Hence my bummed- I’ve been here 4+ yrs and we always got along despite her and her hubs being sorta lacksidasical about maintanence etc. It’s a small older run down place with an acre for my gardens and chickens and dogs, I was perfectly happy to put up with erractic repairs etc tho I…

I’m in for the random thread! (I read all these political bru-ha-has, but I don’t comment cause what is there left to say?) I want to gripe about my goofy landlady who last month freaked out and told me she was evicting me that instant! She called me a thief and a liar and then took off without accepting the rent…

For the love of all things animalistic, I too would like to be released.

From the story above this appears to be a pretty clear cut case of OAS, Officer Assisted Suicide. Despite comments blaming racism or misogeny, this woman refused lawful entry to officers serving legal warrants. She met the officers with a gun, and apparently discharged it several times. She also made it a priority to…

I’m an Old, and have really really really enjoyed sex. It ranged from lightweight fun to amazing deep intimacy, but I’m here today to say that even meh or bad sex was always great exercise! Now if only I could find a workout pardner who’d overlook the wrinkles and saggy boobs and didn’t drive me crazy out of bed.. I’d…

How does one deal with the reality that drunk or sober, life isn’t going to improve much?

I just started Graceland, and it’s turning out to be smart, sassy, well written and acted. Doesn’t hurt that it’s set in SoCal, my old stomping grounds. It’s a multi jurisdictional modern crime drama with a mixed crew all undercover sharing a beach house. Hilarity and drama ensues, haha.Try the pilot if you haven’t…

He’s awesome! I read his description, then scrolled to his face. I think he’d like to be called Lefty Larue! (Hey- I’m an old animal training gal, and I always go with my first instinct heehee) Whatever ya call him he’s gonna be a GREAT dawg!
