There is also so many freaking new & exciting ways your body lets you down from year to year and they just sort of accumulate.  

Maybe she just wanted someone to say thank you. As the person that makes the Thanksgiving meal it’s be nice if I got more than “The turkey was a bit dry this year.” at the end of the day. A comment ever so politely given to me by my FIL last Thanksgiving, of the eight people I fed that day not one said thanks or…

My MIL will do this.   She does actually slice them though & they’re not usually heirloom, but no matter the meal if she thinks the table looks empty it’s a plate of sliced tomatoes with salt & pepper to fill in the gap.   I have no idea why, I think she’s thinking of it as salad. 

I suspect that’s more because we don’t listen to our bodies we listen to  everything else but.  

I wonder why people are ruining sweet potatoes by putting marshmallows on them. I love both foods but not together.  

Man I wish I had the money to buy three pairs of $150 dollar shoes at once.

I’m so old, I love watching how every five years or so a generation comes along & thinks they’re the cool kids in town, well until a few years later when the next lot of kids ages up & now the cool kids get to join the rest of us over here in “you’re old your life is over” town.

I follow Adam Savages suggestion with tools.   I buy a cheap version first, if I use it enough that it breaks or the fact it’s shitty starts to bother me then I buy the good one.  Sometimes you just need a tool once in a while & cheap is fine. 

Yes let’s use old growth forests for those lovely long soft fibres to wipe our asses on. 

Because the trucks have dividers & put them in separate sections. They just do it in one trip to save time & money. There are a tonne of designs out there it as an example take a close look & notice the flap that separates the garbage & routes it to the right section moving.

I feel you miss the point of the instant pot. ie I can walk away & leave it & do other things while food is cooking.   If I want to futz that much with food I don’t use my instant pot. 

I know some people, like Bono wear them for medical reasons, but this guy sure doesn’t strike me as someone that needs them for anything other than some snake oil BS. 

I feel your sarcasm is being missed.

She’d just knock ‘em out by swinging the bag. 

Nah it’s crazy chemicals in your brain when you think you’re in love with someone. It is literally biology making you addicted to someone. You can try & logic it all you want from the outside, but until you’re in there staring at the person that gave you that high hoping like hell it will kick in again you will not…

So things taste better if you pay more for good ingredients is the take away here.

65 isn’t a baby boomer.  Also stop treating her like a helpless child & maybe she’ll stop acting like one. 

Some of us need to budget & skimp just to pay for the things we need.

or buy grapes & make their own it’d be even cheaper. 

But it’s a question that kind needs thinking out of the box. Whatever car you get they’re going to know it’s an under $30K car. You’re not fooling them with your reliable affordable auto. Seriously just get the one you already like if that’s the route you want to go because they’re going to know one way or the other.
