He was such a smart dog, always thinking and needed to get out and walk every day to see his kingdom. He learned quickly to be a great off leash companion and we took him to nearby hiking trails. He and my husband walked 5-7 miles a day. If he didn’t go out, the dog sulked, ignored you, laying in the driveway…

Just mix dry, 50/50 and sprinkle around or put a little pile somewhere Safe. Keep away from pets but put where the ants can find it. They haul it home, eat it and pass away. 

Mix borax and sugar. Set it out for them. Also, what is cabbage pasta?

We have fallen in love, and adopted a giant rescue malamute. He weighs in at 150. Big, goofy gentle giant. With no leash training, me, not him. I’m walking him, with my hand foolishly through the leash loop. Squirrel jumps across path, giant dog lunges and somehow my finger is taken sideways into a metal sign. …

What ratio do you use?  Conditioner, water, vinegar, sounds perfect!

So, I’m super lazy and use baking soda and vinegar. Great for camping! Mix 1 tble spoon baking soda, warm water. Rinse through wet hair. Rinse, then rinse again with water and vinegar. About 1/3 cup. Rinse again. This is great for outdoor washing. I use it in lakes or rivers. If you have leave in conditioner,…

I love this. It’s going to be there, like a sliver under a fingernail, like a splinter you can’t dig out, like an ingrown hair, just lingering and annoying tiny t. It’s going to be one his mind while he’s golfing, eating, bragging. It’s even better delayed than it would be if the returns came out tomorrow because…

These guys have known for years that they’d be among the first up against the wall. Guess they thought it was their time.

So, everyone else’s advice is good. I’m here with the practical. 1. Save money. Take any extra cash, $5 at a time and stash it away. You will need it. 2. Keep your own bank accounts. Don’t put him on them. 3. Prepare a go bag. 4. Read and educate yourself on indicators of mental, financial and physical abuse.…

I am so sorry. When my beloved dog passed, a friend told me something that comforted me. She said, remember, he had a wonderful life, and this is just one short minute of that.   Again, so sorry.

So, to me, love is an action. People can profess all kinds of feelings, but the only tangible thing is how they act. It’s a radical act to evaluate your relationships based entirely on actions. Looking at how someone feels is being inside their head and making assumptions.  Stop that.  Be courageous and just look…

Which platform do you watch this on?

How do you make preserved lemons? I’m in Alaska with lots of rhubarb so I’ll be making rhubarb, orange & ginger sauce. I use stevia and tint it lightly with red jello. Just cook down the rhubarb, add chopped or grated ginger, orange zest, a little stevia and a dusting of jello until you get the color you like. I…

Well, I just watched escape from New York. Pretty fun. The best was when my husband said that his tattoo makes it look like his dick is smoldering. Maybe that was the effect they were going for. I wouldn’t have minded checking Snake over to be sure all was well.  Not a good movie, but a good nostalgia watch  

Have you thought about renting out your current house?  

Oh those all look so good. I roasted a chicken stuffed full with 1 lemon quartered, garlic cloves, also quartered and used last summers herbs frozen in olive oil. I rubbed the skin down with bacon grease and good salt, coated with pepper. So easy, so good. Also made mushroom rice using dried mushrooms. A successful…

I liked this, and I especially like it because Dr. Fauci played by Brad is handsome, fit and so charming. Meanwhile, the orange man is unflatteringly and accurately portrayed. I’m sure that bothers the orange one a lot, and that amuses me.

I love chalk paint for its ease.  Covers everything with no questions asked.  It’s not super durable but so what?  Easy to redo.  

I love Vera, available on Amazon.  She’s smart, she’s bossy, she’s abrasive and sometimes unexpectedly kind.  

I’m sorry, be really good to your inner self. It sounds like you chose a good person to be close to, that’s something to acknowledge. Be peaceful and try to be in the moment.
