@ReenieHJ
I’m wondering if you ended up venturing out. Or if you were able to top the green pepper story. (I, sadly, cannot. So I’m hoping to live vicariously through you.)
You don't want to hear any of my 'exciting' stories unless you're in need of a sedative.
But I did score his 2 needed green peppers, 1.99 # and extremely nice. Which he forgot to add to his chili yesterday.
Really hitting the big time today though, grocery shopping at 8 this a.m.
He forgot?! Oh man, isn’t that the way it goes?
Depending on your time zone....you may be in the thick of it at the grocery. I wish you well on that voyage. (I don’t want to do that later😫but....kids. Always needing to eat and stuff.)1 -

Blown away still by the response to my “before & during” pics I posted to a fasting group I go to once in a while. 😱
And they’re all really nice. Except a lot asking questions I’m not qualified to answer. And I’m 1/2 expecting for my pic to end up on some bogus “lose weight fast” ad on Instagram or somewhere. I think they just take pics from anywhere. I had no idea the group was as large as it is. I didn’t experience this when I posted something a few months back.5 -

I’m not sure folks understand how difficult it is mentally to be the boss and be responsible for all the employees and their families.
When times are tough and there’s no money, to work your hiney off to scrounge up payroll and insurance is not an easy thing to bear.
When everyone gets paid but the boss because there’s none left over.
Owning a small business these days is not an easy thing.

Thanks you two! I like to share progress since I’m not an “after” yet but then I’m kind of 🤯 when people ask for advice. Go find the person who has maintained it for a few years....that’s your advice giver. Me? I can tell you how great I feel, how I do things I never thought I could but I really can’t give advice and guidance on how to get fit or lose weight. It’s definitely great to have people be nice to you in that way though!2 -

False...you have tons of wisdom to share. And its people who are living it and accomplishing it one day at a non perfect day time that inspire and motivate. You've lost how many pounds and maintained it? You exercise how many days a week with household of kids? How do you keep going on weeks you are frustrated or tired?
You should share more.😁 it helps those (me included) around you. You need to spotlight yourself on your wall and insta 🤷♀️4 -

Have you posted before/after pics here? I don't hit many threads in other places so might have missed it.
For the record, I think you're awesome no matter what.3 -

On my wall for a few hours this past Saturday I posted some. 😂
Thank you so much, that’s really kind of you to say.1 -

Bitcoin is crashing again. Was thinking of buying when it bottoms out. Don’t know how low it will go. It’s so risky though. I can’t help but think there are just a few big players in there rigging it for there own gain. Buying massive amounts, generate the hype bubble nd then sell back most of it to the American Dollar, crashing it5

Yeah, but if you time it right you can be rolling in it. Problem is you have to be privy with the Powers that Be to do that. Its not a long term investment for sure.1 -

I've wondered the same thing. Wouldn't surprise me the people who got lucky and now tout themselves as "gurus" and sell professional trading courses, have something to do with it. Perhaps they amass a following, then hype it at the right times and cash out.3 -

It can definitely be a swing trade !! But even the charts show no rhyme or reason. To me there are too many Market Makers involved with no real control or reporting ! It moves with tweets hahahah2 -
Gates Backs Blackstone’s $4.3 Billion Bid for Jet-Base Operator
By Christopher Jasper , Anthony Palazzo , and Dinesh Nair
January 8, 2021, 2:35 AM EST
Updated on January 8, 2021, 11:27 AM
Carlyle, GIP also weighing offers for Signature Aviation
Private-jet base operator has thrived during Covid-19 pandemic
Bill Gates joined the battle for Signature Aviation Plc, allying with Blackstone Group Inc. in a $4.3 billion approach for the world’s biggest operator of private jet bases.
Gates’s Cascade Investment LLC, the biggest shareholder in Signature Aviation.
HYPOCRITE!
Those private jets don’t run on electricity or solar power.
Remember, the rules don’t apply to him.
I don’t believe a word he says.3 -
I read on here someone say, "Stop matching your socks". This is already improving my life. I agree. It's pointless.5

I spent the holiday reviewing my portfolio to fix any gaps (after not touching it or looking at it all 2020). Wealthsimple (one of the places I've dealt with since they first emerged) started offering the ability to easily buy BitCoin a few months ago.
I'll let my teen son "play around" with that account. As for me, I decided to dip my toes in dividend stocks so I can DRIP. Boring but more reliable 🤷🏾♀️2 -

I match mine in category. So, similar shape and style / brand, base color, color accent match optional.
Unless I'm really feeling wild. Then I'll go COMPLETELY opposite. And feel like a rebel all day... Until I'm unexpectedly asked to take off my shoes.3 -

Mine are all very similar, and just have very minor decorative marks.
Now that I don't have to complete the puzzle after laundry, I feel so free! lol2 -

Wanna up level?
My two children and I all have similar foot sizes. We have one communal sock bucket. All socks go in there. No more sorting, no more individual drawers. None of that. One bucket, all sock pairs. And one tiny bucket for mismatched. Sometimes we'll just roll the dice and pick two mismatched socks.
And the bucket is on the main floor because we're a bunch of sockless wonders and remain barefoot most times. We need them shortly before we leave the house, so they're near the door.
Now sometimes we may have a few pair upstairs... But for the most part... One bucket. Main floor.
Thank you for attending my Ted talk.6 -
I wanna just buy a bunch of the exact same socks and never have to think about it again. I've been on the no matching train forever but most of my pants are tight on the ankle and you can definitely see that they don't match.3
