My wife and I are getting ready to take our daughter to school, first grade. Normally I’m the one that takes her but we decided to carpool that day in my wife’s car. I saw my daughter getting into the wrong car so I yell to her, “We’re using the other car!” and go back inside. Wife and I finish locking up the house…

Splitting finances because you can’t agree on spending sounds more like a roommate situation and not a marriage.  Combined finances is supposed to be challenging and force communication.  I’m sure the person being responsible and paying down debt is not going to be at all bitter against the person living the high life.

We have similar conversations around it not being a matter of having “enough” money to spend on xyz but that money is finite and we have to prioritize what we spend it on so that we get all of our needs met first and then figure out what we want to save for and what “fun” stuff we want to splurge on.

What gets me is that nobody thinks of themselves as potentially catching the virus, only that “I haven’t got it so far so I’m one of the ‘good’ ones who isn’t spreading it.” ANYBODY CAN CATCH THE VIRUS EVEN IF THEY HAVEN’T SO FAR.

In addition to squeezing the glutes HARD, I also tighten the core. Both of these feel very necessary as the amount of weight approaches the max.

Steamed fraud?

Register their email address too. I had someone take my kids name on gmail and it was super creepy. The chances of someone else having that name is essentially zero so it wasn’t because of that.

This is what I look like every time I finish a caulking job. 

Lol at your thermodynamics and CICO point but I agree. That said,  whenever someone mentions thermodynamics, I’m always reminded of this in The Simpsons:

In my experience, after that first job no one cares about your college grades, scores, transcripts, etc. other than that the degree is real. And even if it’s not, if you’ve proven to be effective at the job they don’t really care.

Yup, I live in a fairly rural town and usually run early in the morning in my neighborhood and a local college campus, generally without a mask. I saw 1 person this morning and they were probably 100+ yards away from me. Usually I don’t see more than 1 or 2 people and it’s very easy to not be within a 100 feet of them.

Stir frys often call for the use of garlic in hot oil. It’s usually accompanied by chilies, ginger, onions, or other sturdy aromatics and the purpose is to season the oil. Since stir frying is a quick cooking method the seasoned oil ensures the flavor is distributed throughout the dish.

1. Put dabs of paint on a piece of paper, slide it into a large ziplock bag and the child can smoosh around the colors without getting paint all over their hands/the table.

Years ago I ran an office for a state senator. Among other things, we used to gather constituent opinion for the senator to consider. The biggest influencers were (in order): hand-written letters, typed or printed letters, emails, telephone calls, form letters (including barely edited versions) or their post-card…

I avoid eating chicken wings, at least in company, because people tend to look askance at me when they see how much I leave on the ends. Sorry, I don’t like globs of fat or chunks of cartilage, and I’m not going to waste time nibbling around that crap just to get the last little tidbit of actual meat and breading. I’m…

 One woman’s home was foreclosed on nine years after her makeover when the mortgage ballooned from $30,000 to $113,000.

You are absolutely correct! South Dakota’s governor refuses to wear a mask and has stated masks make transmission rates higher. We had a giant, week long motorcycle rally for half a million people.  We had our state fair despite all the warnings.  Schools are shutting down for lack of teachers and huge numbers of…

If you make more than $137,700, you aren’t currently paying Social Security taxes on any income above that amount. Joe Biden would like to remove the $137,700 income cap to pay for Social Security.

People holding up an iPad to snap pictures are pet-peeve of mine.
