by Debbie Walker I haven’t done one of these columns for a while now. But have no fear I had not forgotten about these many uses. What I have been doing is buying my “FIRST for women” magazine, every time I see them displayed. Each month two pages are for uses other than originally intended. […]
by Debbie Walker I wish you the happiest and healthiest New Year! Hope you remember anyone who will be alone for the holidays. We are all down to “Crunch time” for those Christmas projects, unless you are one of those …… I don’t knit or crochet, but I can cover empty toilet paper tubes with […]
by Debbie Walker I found an interesting calendar at Nana Dee’s (Wandering Nana’s). You just never know what can be found there. This calendar is for no particular year, it’s more a desk entertainment, I am sure. Anyway, Baby Boomer Blues is published by Great Quotations Publishing Company. I never really understood who or what […]
by Debbie Walker Okay, so the holiday season of 2020 has begun. It is sure to have some differences for just about everyone. I hope you all had a great turkey day, enjoying good food and loving family and friends. Included in my family’s celebration was our new little one to introduce to the holiday […]

by Debbie Walker I have been collecting articles about using every day household items for different purposes. It is time to share my stash that’s getting rather large. One thing I was surprised to see was about aluminum foil. If you put four layers of aluminum foil together you can use it to sharpen scissors. […]
by Debbie Walker Oops! I forgot this was supposed to have been in the column for last week, following the title of “Thee Onederful Werld ov Wirds” (from Moments for Grandparents). I forgot I was to send the next part of the article. Here it is as promised, just late: “Being a grandparent hasn’t made […]
by Debbie Walker I don’t know where this quote came from, however, I am using it here, “With prices of most necessities rising, I’m glad there’s a way to save tons of money in such a simple, healthy manner.” I haven’t tried most of these, but I will put notes on things I have tried. […]
by Debbie Walker I know all this will sound “Polly-Anna” (it means to be excessively or blindly optimistic). What the heck, we can all use some positives right now. Do you remember the little saying about, “If life throws you lemons, make lemonade?” What a simple saying but how important. I know, in the middle […]
