Profile For Pennypacer -

My husband John and I have enjoyed  travelling through Canada and the USA for 7 months. We have seen so many sites and met so many wonderful campers. This is our retirement gift to us. We recommend you do this once in your life. To see how the other people live.

We are now settled in a small town in Ontario.. We love not hearing the sirens that were common in the city. The birds and train are all we hear now. I would love to hear from other seniors who are small community people.

RE: Saving Electricity When Using Your Dishwasher
I have another idea. Go back to handwashing the dishes and get the family involved. Its great quality time spent and you can have some great conversations. Plus you will save on soap, hot water and electricity. ... View related article.

RE: In Memory of Suma and Mamiya (Tabby Cats)
I am sorry to hear of your loss. Do you suspect the tainted pet food? I lost my dog almost 2 years now from pancreas problem. She was a wonderful pet and I still miss her. Penny was 13 years. I hope to one day get another dog, but when I am ready. You will find the same, you need to get over the grieving process first. Its like losing a member of your family. Its great that you are sharing this with the group. Take care. ... View related article.

RE: Garden: Pansies
I absolutely agree with you. They are the perkiest, colourful, hardiest flowers. I have had them in my garden blooming since April and here in Canada our spring weather has been up and down like a yo-yo.
Pansies and Violas are just great. ... View related article.

RE: Ideas For Saving Old Greeting Cards
I have made coasters with my greeting cards. I used a wide-mouth glass as a circle and drew around it in the center of the picture. I then did the same where the signature is. Then I stuck them together with two-way tape just to hold them. The front will show the picture and the back will show the signature. You could put the year there. Then use clear mac-tac paper and cover both sides. Cut the around the circle again to trim the mac tac. You now have waterproof coasters with your card memories for a good conversation piece. ...

I found the toothpaste idea worked great. Thank you to Monique. I tried the baking soda, it did take off a bit of tarnish but the toothpaste worked better.

RE: Sasha (Yorkie)
Hi Kathy,
This is my Yorkie "Penny". She was with me for 13 years and just passed away 18 months ago. She was a great companion and kept a eye always on me. I miss her to this day. Enjoy your pets, they are precious. I might look into a rescue here in Canada, I'm not sure if there is one. ... View related article.
