I post very very rarely on this board because I just love reading all the recommendations... But, I know that I have recommended Replay in the past on this board because it is one of my favorite books. I reread it at least once a year. This book just really gets to me, because I've always wanted to 'relive' my life and do things differently and I always daydream about what if I could relive my life knowning about all the events in my past life... I love this book too and am so happy to see someone else who enjoyed it as much as I do!

Yes, very easy. The heel part is fairly low. I keep mine on the back porch to slip on and go out in the wet grass to the garden or whatever. I sometimes have on socks and sometimes don’t. I don’t wear them for a long period of time because they don’t have enough support for me and my PF will flare up. For an hour or so it’s ok. And by the way, there are various heights you can buy, up to rain boots.

Straus milk is lovely and comes in glass bottles. I'm okay with the cartons, but I won't buy milk in #2 plastic. I can taste the jug! I think Straus have milkmen in the Southland, but I don't use enough milk for that. When I was little the milkman asked my mother if she wouldn't rather he just bring the cow. :) I loved our milkman, and the glass bottles! If you can't get Straus, you might want to try White Mountain Bulgarian style yoghurt. It comes in a big mayonnaise style glass jar with the sloped sides. It keeps very well. The company is based in Texas, so might be more available to some of you. It's cultured, IIRC, rather than having a specific culture injected. Full fat or non-fat. It's my favorite by a long shot.

Well, I decided to make lemonade out of lemons. The hail and requisite winds keep breaking branches off my roses...especially my Austins. So I brought in these Bishop Castle blooms. I don't usually bring flowers inside...but I'm glad I did. They smell so wonderful!! Notice the torn leaves from hail. All of my roses have leaves like that. First bloom of Portrait. My beautiful Berolina that I love so much!! Thank you to whoever recommended this rose. And I'm sorry that my memory sucks. :) The wonderful smelling Parade Day! Beverly Sceptr'd Isle Soeur Emmanuelle (first bloom opening) I love the colors. Bishop's Castle Tahitian Sunset (tall and narrow bush for me) Our new lamp. :) Thanks for looking! Carol
