    Container Gardening

    :) I'm begging horse owners for manure for the garden, so don't worry about a couple of cats.

    Ladies...rules of thumb?

    :) After a conversation like that I would likely excuse myself to go to the ladies room and never be seen again by the prospective date. Someone else wrote that women are alone by choice - I know this one is. I like my own company and this way I'm still hoping that one day my prince will...

    Container Gardening

    What did you feed them? Mine never get to be taller than my waistline and have few tomatoes.

    Do you color your hair ?

    :) Unfortunately, yes - gray hair is dead and does not absorb color as do the "live" neighbors and I read one of you colors once every THREE months??? :) Try root touch up every two weeks. With the ghastly colors available in Hungary I do have to bring mine from the US - that's a lot of hair...

    Do you color your hair ?

    :) Had nothing to do with my age - was barely 18 at the time Viva Las Vegas was made. I loved Elvis, and Ann Margret was dancing with him...sooo, hair color and dancing lesson. :) Never went to a live concert of Elvis but the haircolor became my own and it is still with me...unlike Elvis. :)

    which job would you choose

    :) There is a saying in Hungarian that roughly translates to: If I keep my mouth shut, my head won't hurt. I bet, by now you too are wondering what possessed you to be so quick in having to convey the facts. If you really felt that great about the fellow at #2, having a cup of coffee with...

    Ladies...rules of thumb?

    :) You are a marketing genius! I bet you no longer have a problem asking anyone out on a date, after reading this, women will be asking YOU out! Clever. Say, can you come out to play? :)

    I use it to re-string my custom jewelry, sew up leather bags...basically anything you want securely attached to whatever. :)

    Gasoline Prices

    See, that is simply something I can't comprehend. The mining equipment, the danger to the miners...how can it be less expensive than wind farms. At least the US government (as well as Germany) subsidizes the building, in Hungary you need to apply for permission - this, of course, means that you...

    what did you do today? (2008-2015) (closed)

    The same way that working at home is not for everyone, neither is living alone. It worked out well for me, although by now I'm so used to only the cats and myself in the house, that I could not tolerate a change. Was divorced when I was 27. Then I was too busy with work, the children and going...

    what did you do today? (2008-2015) (closed)

    Weather was great last week and so I did as much as I physically could outdoors, clearing off the waste from the winter and burning most of it. Saturday did some more pruning and stained the terrace beams before the rain. Sunday and today it is cool and rainy, I'm happy to stay indoors with a...

    deadbeats

    It is difficult for people to admit they are wrong, imagine a company where there are so many to blame who would need to apologize. :)

    What makes you feel old?

    :) about 10 years ago my date made me feel old (but I still prefer younger men) when getting ready to go to the DC mall to hear Judy Collins I was very excited and he innocently stopped and asked "so, who's Judy Collins" In general PAIN makes me feel old. I liked it much better when I had no...

    Financial Planners - any advice?

    Basically what we did now is transfer the title entirely to my brother's name. The rest of the figuring was simply done on a handshake - I've also foregone a chunk of the cash in favor of my brother as it was he taking care of Mother during the last three years of her life.

    Long vacation in England

    I've heard it said that there is no such thing as "too rich" or "too skinny" For me, I don't believe there is such thing as a house too big for me. I once house sat for friends with a mansion that had seven bathrooms. :) It was perfect! "This place is a bit big for me, but it's gorgeous 6...
