Re: Daily Check-in March 28, 2024

Good morning fellow frugalites, Like MJ we are to be above the freezing mark today, not by a lot though. Hopefully what the weather pundits are predicting we get tomorrow just does not happen. Too many people on the road for the holiday weekend and they don't need to face 5-10 cm of snow. Usually w...

Re: Daily Check-in 24 March 2024

OMG! Palm Sunday Mass! As a kid? This was TORTURE! Sure it was fun to get the palms but it is the LONGEST MASS of the entire year of Roman Catholic Church! I remeber the four of us kids squirming and DYING and watching our watches as the time dragged on 1 hour, 1 hour 15 minutes, 1 hour 30 Minutes,...

Re: Daily Check-in 24 March 2024

I have a memory of Palm Sunday mass that took hours... They do all the gospels,I thought? Is it still like that,I hadn't eaten breakfast and was just about ready to pass out when it was done. I went to Catholic school and we were expected(?) to attend 9 o'clock mass unless we had a very solid reason...

Re: Daily Check-In for March 19, 2024

MJ. Can you call the police or fire dept about your parking lot? It is surely a safety violation that you can not get out if you have an emergency. Doubtful they would or could do anything on private property. Surprised they don't keep ice melt around,in my building it's in buckets at every entrance.

Re: Daily Check-in March 18, 2024

People think I am crazy that I am looking forward to moving back to an apartment. Owning a house is a lot of work. I am just not into that anymore. I just want to relax and not worry about this or that. Best thing I've ever done,no lawn & snow removal to deal with(NY),people my own age around a...

Re: Daily Check-in March 15, 2024

Just got a chance to look at the house MJ. In some of the places in England that we toured their drapes looked just like that. I wonder if the previous owners were going for the "Old World" look. While a beautiful home, I would never pay that much for it, and in looking at the rest of the...
