@ReenieHJ TY for your good wishes & nice words. :smile: Yes, I am moving in Nov. Since the pandemic, with so many escaping other states to come here to buy cheaper housing, the rents are being exponentially driven up, cuz they rent until they buy, which can be 1, 6 or 12-mos. They pay market rate, which is 2-1/2 times the…

Same. Except, I don't have dogs & have the blackest of black thumbs. :( But, I allow myself a couple of days of mourning with major issues, then say, well, this feels awful & go into a hyper mode of movement. Somehow, when I'm organizing, cleaning, fixing things, it feels like I'm putting my mind into the same mode.

It's a good q & everyone belongs. :smile: Well, you answered it yourself. Alone 12, but together 40+. If you preferred being single, you'd have stayed single. You were fine, it was good, but most living creatures, from plants to animals to humans prefer a partner, so you returned to partnership. Not everyone is miserable…

Well, it's a meme vid, but worth a watch... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MKIJT996KR8

The Standells - Dirty Water. From the 60s, but even in the 2000s, it was a song we screamed out of the car windows after clubs at 3am, while headed over the Tobin Bridge to Reilly's Roast Beef in Revere, for a sandwich. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5apEctKwiD8

Soundtrack. Haunting Nick Cave. Great movie. Nick Cave & Warren Ellis - Song For Bob (The Assassination of Jesse James) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IEnVcYLmXUs

Ah-ha, after all these years, there you are... you still owe me a Kohler faucet... & 4 cases of bath tiles.

Lol. Watching? Boxing, yes. Anything else... nah... I've no patience to sit still. I'll play anything & am not an athlete, but can hold my own. I'm one of those people who can spend 10-min practicing, then be a mid-range to better member of the team. Was always the 1st girl chosen on teams with co-ed sports in school. But,…

Well, I've taken software tutorials... most for things like advanced Word & Excel features... or property management software. Hard, no, but you do need the software to follow along... same version is ideal. I've also learned to fix toilets & do other small household repairs with free YTube tutorials. Fun, exciting? No,…

Jeez... I'm irked by the plethora of typos I made in every single post today... even after proofreading. Maybe I should limit whiskey shots to 10... before b'kfast...

Dyed human hair easily tangles, like this...

Cartilage. The colors were only added to make it look like a Christmas tree...

Chicken embryo's brain...

Lol, I feel your pain. As a former hairdresser, I can tell you that I always save 1-2 empty bottles & all working spray tops. Clean them first by filling up any clean container with hot water, then spraying continually to remove all residue from the tubing. I do it a couple of times. Then just store them... may not need 1…

I do remember someone with that moniker years ago, but not the exact name. Some of us have been around for a long time & like me, keep forgetting our old user names, so just create new accounts... I have at least 4 times. If you remember your old user name, that would help... but revisit some of the threads you posted to,…

I hear ya. Do you have a sofa I can sleep on... just for 5-mos?

I like my Snicker bars the same way... I understand. :smile: Well, I'd say... no one likes their SO to come home & complain at the end of the day, so... someone whose into his work.

Okay... 2 things... Ah, first "thing" on my mind... < Screech! > the bleedin' alligator that I'm watching climbing the shore of the canal to get on land with some creature (looks like a pelican) in its mouth... oh, boy... I wanna be back in SoCal, next to the Pacific or Boston, next to the Atlantic, where the only things I…

Wanted to talk to my mum for 10-min, just to let her know I mailed her a pkg today... 1-1/2 hrs later, we're still on... then she took 15-min to say goodbye. Is my mum the only one who can't just say goodbye & leave it at that... g'bye, so long, see ya later, let me recap what we discussed, then summarize what I just…

Errands. Lots of errands.

Did scientists create PacMan? This is a colony of volvox algae bursting open.:

Keratin structures in a human skin cell.

Yes. I was also thinking metallic material for an awesome New Year's Eve skirt. Sometimes I'm a little too DIY.

I understood. I'm just the cheerleader type. Sometimes my pom poms get in the way.

You've always struck me as being very determined, capable & consistent. With that self control, a bit of a stray is just a temporary detour. Sounds like you have a solid plan to get back to the road. More than anyone here, your ability to achieve weight loss & stick with working out is superior. Just my 2-cents. :smile:

When he insists, "I can fix that for ya, no problem" & it ends up costing me $4K.

Oh, just lacking energy this week irks me. I've accomplished absolutely nothing. I plan on sleeping this entire weekend. Monday... this nonsense needs to end. Tiredness... be gone!

Yes, I am. Sorry to disappoint, Jess. But, I'll still send you flowers. :smile:

This was all I did. Despite a headache... it was still nice to be bothered by nothing & no one.
