1. The toilet is big because this was supposed to be a room for people over 400 pounds. Then they found out that no one told the architect and the door frame will not accommodate The bigger beds. They fold to get into the room but once the patient is in, they cannot roll them out the door for surgery, etc.... 2. The pace maker may be defective. More on this on Monday. 3. The medicine did not have any life altering consequences but also hasn’t been beneficial. ( of course this is likely inconclusive if the pace maker is actually defective). 4. I am not at the hospital but instead going to take Paulie to dog school at 10. That will likely be a disaster but he needs the routine. 5. All of us are tired of this but I see others at that hospital and know we are blessed.14 points

Nothing exploded after we came home. The first photo is from a picnic dinner Wednesday evening on the eastern slope of my local mountain. The other two are about three hours from ABQ.10 points

It is good to see you came to us first. You should probably gift it to me and avoid the tax hit.9 points

Came home from my AM shopping..and wondered about lunch. Remembered a can of Trader Joe's sardines in the cupboard ( not out of date )...As a child, my grandfather made them for me..mashed with vinegar and on white bread..Today, I had them the same way on a small piece of Naan bread. I like them every once and awhile.4 points

I'd say yes we fit. (the short answer) It took years for WoBG and I to find a place to live. First we looked at homes in MANY locations. We'd find a home we liked but the location was horrible. Or there were locations we liked and none of the home were something we liked. Then we switched to looking for empty lots. So location became the only concern. We looked at MANY locations. During these searches... I'd find several possible locations and WoBG and I would have a road trips to see the homes or lots. You can see pictures on the internet, but many are staged with the 'perfect' picture of a location. I'm old school and want to SEE the site. When we did find our lot. Then it took me a LONG time looking at hundreds (or more) of plans for homes on the internet. WoBG would get the short list (which over time was rather long) for her input. Eventually we found 'our' home to build. So we built our home on our lot and we survived that process. (If you have built a home you know what I mean.) We have no plans on leaving anytime soon.3 points

I’m good here. We’re doubling down on our house this year, remodeling the kitchen, bathrooms, replacing flooring, and building a bigger shed. What I like best is coming home after traveling somewhere else.3 points

I’m never sure I ever really “fit” here. But I could live a happy life as a misfit. However, the last few years things have polarized to such a degree that I don’t enjoy it the way I used to. That and winters just get harder as I get older.3 points

Acreage is great. Two words: Elbow room. Won't really see the neighbor's homes from our windows. City lots are very close. I can hear the neighbor's garbage can slam shut. I can hear their dogs like they are in my bedroom. Less congestion. Area for a large garden with my OWN water. Less light pollution. County property offers lower property taxes Less crime compared to the city Parking is a non-issue3 points

Language barriers. Americans who don't speak English posting with someone raised Chinese who now lives in Canada and speaks Canadian which is also not English. It's a wonder we can communicate at all.3 points

And every educator has heard this. I am a fan for sure but never attributed those songs to him. "I cannot go to school today," Said little Peggy Ann McKay. "I have the measles and the mumps, A gash, a rash and purple bumps. My mouth is wet, my throat is dry, I'm going blind in my right eye. My tonsils are as big as rocks, I've counted sixteen chicken pox And there's one more—that's seventeen, And don't you think my face looks green? My leg is cut—my eyes are blue— It might be instamatic flu. I cough and sneeze and gasp and choke, I'm sure that my left leg is broke— My hip hurts when I move my chin, My belly button's caving in, My back is wrenched, my ankle's sprained, My 'pendix pains each time it rains. My nose is cold, my toes are numb. I have a sliver in my thumb. My neck is stiff, my voice is weak, I hardly whisper when I speak. My tongue is filling up my mouth, I think my hair is falling out. My elbow's bent, my spine ain't straight, My temperature is one-o-eight. My brain is shrunk, I cannot hear, There is a hole inside my ear. I have a hangnail, and my heart is—what? What's that? What's that you say? You say today is. . .Saturday? G'bye, I'm going out to play!"3 points

The original plan was to wall in the side yard outside the master bedroom window, turn the window into a doorway, and build a hot tub retreat for two accessible only through the master bedroom.3 points

Try a pinch of anchovies in your next spaghetti sauce. One of the best small Italian restaurants in our area does this and their sauce is famous. Very few people know about the anchovies though. People are funny like that.2 points

Yeah I am not going back for another bite. ie; bump your offer. I might go back and ask for better terms. I told the Broker no escalator clause. Limit is Monday @ 3:00 pm. I am a bit surprised we don't have any cash offers. Broker says 3 or 4 more offers today. I saw a family this morning on the Ring. 2 little girls. My heart melted. An extra $25k is not a material amount for me. I almost think of it as a Pay it Forward thing. The seller on my Portland house had another offer $25k (I think) higher yet sold to me. It's kind of like the universe is speaking to me at that point excuse me I have to go peeping Tom & watch the people walk through our home on the cameras2 points

I saw yeast the last couple of times I was in the grocery store, so yeast producers appear to have caught back up to demand. That said, I don't have to worry about yeast because Aire sent me a package of it (a pound of the very best stuff, no less) at the height of the pandemic shortages when there was none to be found anywhere. I have blitzed through a third of it so far. Every time I make pizza, which is at least a couple of times a week, I think of Aire and smile a big smile while I think of how awesome and cool she is! Thanks, Aire!2 points

I don't have any thing on the side of the trailer that advertises what might be on the inside. I know plenty of people who have had their race trailers stolen. We were at a rest stop on our way to a race when a stranger walkedup and out of nowhere asked.....what's in the trailer? I told him that we were on our way to visit our son and weare bringing him our old riding lawn mower.2 points
