ryebread March 10, 2015 Share March 10, 2015 Has anyone heard from copacabana? She sent me a PM on Mar 05 2015. 07:03 PM. I think she's taking a break after the heaviness of the BH threads. I feel like I need a vacation, too. And a bath. She's probably down at the Copa. Copacabana. Where music and passion are always in fashion. I hope to see her tonight after the new episode. 7 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/1861-small-talk-the-cabana/page/6/#findComment-910294

Popular Post ub40fan March 11, 2015 Popular Post Share March 11, 2015 My name is Savannah. I posted last week about my aunt Kathy who was ub40fan. We had a barbecue at my grandma's. It was a typical beautiful San Diego day. All my aunt's and uncles and Kathy's friends were there. We talked, we laughed, we really laughed after we smoked the rest of Kathy's pot (she only smoked the best), we cried and we ate. Then we went down to the beach and scattered Kathy's ashes off of Sunset Cliffs right at sunset. Final chapter, book Is over. I want to thank you all for all the nice things you wrote. What a kind and giving community you are. This doesn't need to be answered. I won't be back.

AnnA March 21, 2015 Share March 21, 2015 Good thing there's an OT thread because this has nothing to do with BH, housewives, Bravo or TV. It's about my inability to wear long sleeves and do anything involving water. For some strange reason I seem to have lost the ability to brush my teeth, wash my face or load the dishwasher while wearing long sleeves without getting my sleeves soaking wet. Whatever it is, I'm tired of having to change my top every time I go near a sink. It's not too bad in the morning since I'm usually still in my PJ's when I brush my teeth but it happened to me three times today. :( 6 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/1861-small-talk-the-cabana/page/6/#findComment-949233

Those commercials where the women glamorously splash their faces when washing them and no drips are fake. You need wash cloths. Sure don't. I don't use cloths on my face except to pat my skin dry after washing. I use a balm to remove makeup and then liquid cleanser for cleaning the skin.

SwordQueen March 21, 2015 Share March 21, 2015 I feel you, AnnA. I'm always doing that, too, because when I wear long sleeves, they are so long that usually cover my hands. But it happens even when I push my sleeves up. I'm a klutz, so I'm always spilling things, dropping things -- I don't know if this is better or not, but I usually drop liquids on something other myself. lol Also, my kitchen sink is one those really old farmhouse sinks, but the basin isn't very deep and if the faucet is turned up too high, the water splashes off of whatever I'm washing and sprays all over me and the floor. Spoons are the worst offenders. 2 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/1861-small-talk-the-cabana/page/6/#findComment-950999
AnnA March 21, 2015 Share March 21, 2015 (edited) I'm not a fan of washcloths so I don't use them. I use a facial scrub spongey-type thing with Aveeno moisturizing soap on my face and those nylon net scrunchy things in the shower. What I can't figure out about the "wet sleeve" dilemma is that I used to be able to do it and now I can't. Why is that? Once upon a time when the earth was new, I could wash off all my makeup before leaving work and put on a fresh face to go out. I'd have to go out wet or strip down to do that now.

I roll up my sleeves, but as I'm doing dishes, for example, they start to creep down my forearms. So I either have to stop what I'm doing, dry my hands, and push them up, or just push them up with wet hands. The latter usually wins. My thing is, I cook a lot and should wear an apron but don't. So I always seem to have a cooking stains on my tops. And I get water on me when washing dishes, right at the waist area. I do the same thing and so have a couple of cooking shirts, which are all kind of stained and gross. Sometimes something will kick up out of the mixer or something, and splat right onto me. Sometimes I happen to be wearing one when I have to walk the dog and I'm afraid I'll run into one of the neighbors; I'm always ready with a not-too-defensive "It's a cooking shirt!"
