    So cool to see you taking care of Gizmo during the show. Everybody does love Gizmo. We had a fur baby cat for 17 years and he passed in May 2021. Sharing your love for Gizmo is wonderful.

    We put in a pool at our last Home, 12,000 gallons. Our water bill only went up $20 to fill it in the year 2000 and it took one day. I was pleasantly surprised! Beautiful family photos, thank you for sharing! No storage in our 55+ community home either, and our kids didn't want all our photos, albums, framed pictures either, it's a real problem! Start Thinning out while your young, it'll make life easier! It was a nightmare for me to Purge a lifetime of our "Stuff" yikes!!
    Love the Survivor Chips 😂

    I’ve begun digitizing my photos. It takes a while, but you get a trip down memory lane as you do it. Then I can use them as screensavers or display them on a rotating basis on a digital frame. The benefit is that I see them, instead of having them stuck away in a bin.

    Great show today! I loved the trip down Memory Lane with your family photos. You have been truly blessed! I am single so it is a bit bittersweet, not ever having been married with my own family to make memories with, but I enjoyed it greatly all the same. It brings back to mind all the wonderful experiences I had with my family growing up. Really good questions this week also. Your show is so informative and very entertaining! I watch regularly even though I don’t plan on moving to The Villages.

You can digitize your pics on a zip drive and watch on your tv when company visits or put them on a digital picture frame which you can program to show each one. Your hilarious chip eating tip makes sense if you want to lose weight (or not)... LoL. ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜

    When I did the lifestyle visit, I did it for $99.00 a night also for 7 days. After that visit I was hooked! I knew there was no other place I wanted to retire to but The Villages! My home is vinyl sided and it's no problem! I have termite protection and power wash it twice a year. Five years later, no hurricane damage so far. I'm a happy camper! 😀 Love your beautiful pictures! It was great seeing your Family! I love Lopez Legacy and have frequented there quite a lot. The other ones I've enjoyed are Arnold Palmer's and Cane Garden. On Long Island I Used a lady that had a business called "Critter Sitter" and when I made my yearly trips to Florida for a week she would come to my home and feed my cat twice a day, clean the litter pan, water my plants, feed my fish and take in my mail! Now that I'm in the Villages, my neighbor across the street from me who use to work for a vet will look after my cat if I take a trip for more than a couple of days. It's less stress on your pet if they don't have to change atmospheres, IMO. Thanks for another great Mailbag Monday! ❤

    From here in the UK have been enjoying your shows for a long time now. Always fun, informative and of great interest as we do not have anything like the Florida Villages here. For a change we seem to be having warmer weather than you, but this will no doubt change very shortly. Keep up the good work and I assume you will have to become the Villlages Florida Old Timers eventually. Hope you can all keep clear of the Covid and enjoy another happy year.

She said it made him feel so good. Thanks to all of you that took time to make a stranger feel good. Interacting with people like you every day, Natalie shows us that there is so much good in this world. Thank you!
