This was well written Rich in Theme and Imagery.
It also, read well and flowed well with No Grammar Issues.
My Comple Synopsis:
The Adjective and Objective Contents we're both Excellent and Exceptional, while Descriptive Measures Aligned Perfectly.

    Thanks Ricky, sorry no rewards left on this. I need to get back to writing. Been off for a while.

Hello Geoff

As always your writing style is engaging and easy to follow. You draw readers in and keep us entertained.

Walkers are very helpful for balance and mobility as one ages. I used one after my knee replacement surgeries.

Lately I've been struggling to get my socks on. Forgot about the sock aid my late husband used. Hope it's still around somewhere!

Take care both of you

Blessings

    I forget where you are. They sell for $AU18 here. I have two as the original one initially needed a repair. My father-in-law, nearly 90 is quite critical of my needing a Sock Helper. He has been a lot more active than me.

Your first re-post I have already reviewed so I was happy to be able to review this one. I am sorry I missed it the first time around. I used to put plastic cutting boards in the oven with homemade cookies on them to keep our Labrador from stealing cookies. LOL More than once I started the oven forgetting the cookies were in there. NOT GOOD!!

    So glad you have come along. I guess you can tell I am getting back on deck again. It seemed so many missed these rambles first-time around.

This was a delightful rambling. The stove cover sounded beautiful. Was it made especially for you? I have seen smaller versions that friends use in campers and recreational vehicles. It is an ingenious idea. Doubles your usable space. Did your wife used to write on Fanstory, because I remember reading things but the style was different. Thank you for posting and reshaping.

    I saw the board on Facebook someplace. The guy who's father in law made them was pretty local to me and I thought, what a great idea. Louise wrote our trip stories years ago in a separate account. Tom messed us up badly and would not allow us (the two of us paid membership)BOTH to review so I closed that. I am not sure you were around back then. I might get the trips stories up again from around Australia. She wrote the stories I edited and added the pictures back then.

You say in your story that you have a walker and that is helped you to continue on with your walking. I use a walker as well and it has revolutionized my walking abilities. Last year I walked 1500 miles. Which was I don't quite an accomplishment for me. I wish you the very best. Patricia.

    Thanks, Sis. I was surprised how many of these missed reviewers possibly during COVID. Had to get them out again. I have a new walker now I wrote a poem about the first one and now another for the new one as well. (Not on here, yet.)

Some very useful tips and advice here for those of us a little over our 21st
birthday! The 'puller-up' of socks sounds very useful and suggestions on re-charging the camera. You seem to keep life going smoothly!

    Thanks Sarah, These are ancient "Rambles" that for some reason missed a lot of reviewers, first time. Perhaps due to COVID?

You certainly do have a lot going on but, lucky for both of you, you seem to both be good at problem solving.

Great stories and nice to read something written by a fellow Aussie.

    Hi Jacqueline, lovely to see another Aussie in here. Been suffering a bit of writer's block and other issues and noticed some of these ancient rambles needed some more exposure. Stick around and I also promise to check your stuff as well. Look for Roy Owens and TFawcus also Aussie writers.

Interesting pictures presented. Seems you have had a lot going on lately. Good you found a solution to your keys issue. Tell you, if it is not one thing it is always something else going on.

    Yep Bro that is for sure. Hope you are well soon. Thanks for coming by. Check Geoff's Musings for my latest poem related to the Keys.

You are very smart and crafty. Both of you are real problem solvers. I'm working on my own set of problems here, hoping to make my life easier. I need to get more organized and cut my long hair which I don't want to do. But, it takes me so long to get ready and especially if I have to shampoo and blow dry and style. It takes a full 30 minutes to blow dry my hair. It takes all day to dry if I don't. Still, I'm glad to have some eyesight. :))
Sending you my best today as always,
Sal XOs....

I guess the only thing that will no burn would be a steel cover, but then it would be more dangerous in the end. There are all manner of clothing relatively difficult to put on when one ages, thanks for the tips, though Bro, well done, blessings Roy

    Bro Roy. Good having you along. Beth Shelby gave me an idea for a cover over the controls on the stove when not in use. I have to work on that.

    Something with air space?
