    Can you mourn a tree?

    I felt really sad when I saw the news story last week of that poor busted up cherry tree in DC that still managed one branch of beautiful cherry blossoms. It was removed to make way for a new one, but not until after the Japanese contingent who were delivering new cherry trees paid homage to it...

    I'm from Philly. It's a shoppin' cart.

    slo’s THURSDAY 4/18 poll - Michael Buble 🎶🎤

    I really and truly have no opinion. I don't listen to this type of music often. The only thing I know about him is that my late uncle used to mistakenly call him Michael Bubble.

    slo’s WEDNESDAY 4/17 poll - Aquariums (at home) 🐟🐠

    I had a large goldfish bowl with a nice bit of gravel and a castle and some ferns on the bottom. My goldfish was named Zeus (I didn't name him), and he had a great personality for a fish. He would always swim up to the front of the bowl wiggling like a puppy whenever he saw me...probably...

    Gambling is an evil thing

    I'm finally getting to go to the casino again on the 25th of this month. I haven't gone since my uncle got sick and then passed some years ago and then the pandemic. I budgeted for it, and I *never* deviate from my budget, don't bring my debit card, and once the money's gone I'm done. I'll miss...

    ooops, I didn't mean to send that to you

    I had someone send me a let's just call it 'spicy' text once obviously meant for their partner and most certainly not *me.* I texted back that I was flattered but expected to at least be bought dinner first . We laughed it off, because we're good friends- but imagine sending something like that...

    slo’s TUESDAY 4/16 poll - Jelly Donuts

    I don't like jelly donuts, because I don't like jelly or fruit filled anything. Pies, donuts, etc. My favorite donuts are the cream donuts made by my neighborhood bakery. Mmm. I haven't had one in a year or so-might have to get one.

    Are you a good "dieter"?

    I also used this plan, using old info I found on the internet. I lost 60 pounds. I'm no longer actively following it, but I've kept up the healthy eating habits for the most part. This really is an easy and good plan, and you eat really well on it.

    slo’s MONDAY 4/15 poll - Oceans 🌊

    I've seen the Atlantic both in person and from an airplane. I don't really care for that particular ocean. As kids spending summers in Wildwood we were often sent to the beach. I hate the beach and always have. I don't see the attraction. And my particular part of the Atlantic, if you go in past...

    Field Trips

    School Trips were the bomb! In sixth grade (I think) we got to go to Radio City Music Hall too see the Rockettes and watch a movie-Smokey and the Bandit. I remember we laughed our butts off at the movie and the teachers were horrified because they didn't realize that Jackie Gleason would be...

    No, I'm not a golfer. In all honesty, I'd rather watch paint dry.

    slo’s THURSDAY 4/11 poll - Ice

    I voted Other, because while I don't use ice in my beverages at home, I make my aunt's daily rum-and-coke with ice from the fridge's ice maker.

    Solo Amtrak travel

    Oh, yes! I also find that when you're traveling solo the attendants really pay attention to you and make sure you're okay.

    Solo Amtrak travel

    I have taken the train to Orlando many times, mostly in a roomette. They're great during the day, roomy seat, privacy, etc. I find the beds very narrow for sleeping. I am plus-sized, but even so these beds are *skinny.* That's my only caveat. I love taking the train...wish I could talk my...
