I do feel like my real life is on hold. The first month of the lockdown I burned myself on a pan. Now I have a scar on my arm that looks like the Nike symbol. I think it will remind me of this time of my life.

I have been afraid to put this in print but I'm worried that DH and I will never have a normal life together again. I don't know how much time he has left. Since his heart attack, his life expectancy hasn't been very good, so it scares me that we may have already gone on our last vacation together. It's August. 2 years ago in August he had his heart attack. 1 year ago in August I had my accident in which I broke 2 bones and had to have surgery. I'm scared something will happen this August too.

Don't despair, dear @whateve . There are still good days ahead.

Thanks C . I do get annoyed but have to grin and bear it since I really don’t like cooking. My latest “beef” is about dish detergent. I like Palmolive (been using it for decades ) but DH realized he likes Dawn so he doesn’t want to buy Palmolive anymore. He even asked me to return an extra Palmolive my Mom just gave me. But I do most of the dishes anyways!!! We also don’t like the same TP — I still buy my own and keep it on top of the toilet lid instead of on the TP roll. Silly stuff

Ok, I am annoyed for you! With all that advice, I would have said: you do it; you can do it better than I. I guess that means you are way nicer than I am.

That’s great that you and your favorite professors are still in touch . I am kinda bad about keeping in touch with old friends — mainly I write them off if I don’t hear back from them (via email) after a couple of times of no reply ).

I didn't have a crush on any of my college professors. However, there are two professors who were very instrumental for me and my classmates. They were wonderful to us and really cared about us. We have all kept in touch with them off and on through the years. We currently have a chat group with them and they both check in every couple weeks.

My DH has a full head of hair and so does his dad. I am so jealous! I have always had very thin hair. I am getting grey hair now too, and started to color it a couple years ago. I went from black to dark brown. I'm so adventurous!

My real hair color is super dark, but not a normal black, although DH always said it was black. It was a color that wasn't replicated with any bottled dye. I knew not to dye it black because my mom had a friend who did that and it always looked unnatural. So I used different shades of dark brown. Right before I decided to go completely gray, I started using a lighter brown but that was a mistake. It had too much red in it. That's the part I haven't completely gotten rid of yet. I can hardly wait until it is gone.

At least my DH could care less what brand of dishwashing detergent I use. He doesn't complain about the toilet paper either. I used to buy my daughter a special brand of toilet paper because she was particular.

The only way I could tolerate cooking when I did it all the time was by trying new things. It was the only thing that made it interesting.

I must be the only one who doesn’t like Charmin. Years ago, I tried to ask DD what brand she liked for her bathroom (hoping she didnt like Charmin either ) but she didn’t express any preference

My daughter only wanted Cottonelle. I'm fine with Charmin, Angel Soft or Cottonelle.

Oddly when I look on Instacart for toilet paper, one of the choices is blackberries!

My family likes the Toilet paper that is on sale, I used to be able to get a 12 pack on sale at shoppers for $3.99cad now the best price is $5.99 on sale , i hunt the flyers or when Costco has a sale on toilet paper, but at least I buy 3 ply so our bums don't get scratched , thats all that matters right?

Hello, friends! I've missed you! I did not intend to stay away so long. The truth is, I've been having some non covid-19 health issues for a while now. I needed to make time to take care of things. Thank God I am much improved! I am looking forward to seeing what you guys have been up to! Now I'm off to catch up with almost 50 pages!!! I have been missing out on a lot. Off to start catching up again. This might take a couple days.

I am so sorry you were sick. Glad you are feeling better!

Arggh! My DH and I are the same about dish detergent. I shop, so it's Palmolive.

I liked Angelsoft until they started using a butterfly pattern . So I mainly like Q Northern now.

Hi C, Thank you for letting us know something has been going on with your health. I'm glad to hear you've been taking care of it and have improved!

I have only now started to get a little used to wearing a mask. At first, I would become quite anxious when putting it on. It's better now. I never knew one small body part could perspire so much!


Thanks for saying this. I needed to hear it.


Great idea!

It's mostly just steam, isn't it?

I'm sorry to hear you were dealing with some things, but good that you are improved! I had to catch up on a ton of pages a couple weeks back and it took forever haha but it was fun
