Shit that annoys me... Both Cookie Monster and Mr. T are no longer offered on Waze. I'm assuming, with some effort, I can probably find the voices somewhere.Quote:

I don’t care how old my daughter is. If she asks for help her dad will always help her.
As they get older you mostly drop into some kind of readiness mode hoping they need you for something.Quote:

Sunday: power washed 1800sf of green concrete (not fresh concrete, but accumulated winter PNW organics) and brought out the outdoor furniture. Wife planted about 50 plants and weeded the landscaping. Even played some corn hole before dinner in the mild weather. Outlook for the week? Sunny and unseasonably warm. Ready for the change in weather/season.
Monday: nice day until 5p when we had a two hour deluge of a rain storm roll in. Gutters were choking and overflowing, not from debris, but from volume of flow. It was insane. Thunder, lighting: whole shebang. Flood and forest debris all over the yard, patio and furniture.
Just gotta laugh.
I'd be a little less of a hater on ticks if they'd just stop leaving those darn disease thank you gifts.Quote:

I think anyone who is not a parent can STFU with opinions about parenting. MTM, I'm looking at you. Each situation is different and there's probably a lot you don't know, nor should you know, in any given backstory. Do parents sometimes do too much for their kids? Yes. Do we realize it, if not in the moment, then down the road? Usually. Are we trying the best we can? Yes.
Even as a parent I’m hesitant to give advice. No parents know what they’re doing and all kids are different.
Agree. I like my daughter. Even more so now that she’s beyond the teen years. I’m gonna drive a few hours next weekend to help her do some landscaping. BFD.Quote:

Got that 3 times as all of the campsites slowly disappeared, each time they were available when I refreshed, but in the 10 seconds it took me to pick 3 and click book, one or more of them had been snagged. Over and over.Quote:

Edit: inevitable that this would be the post that actually worked. Thanks to whoever gave the fan a kick to get it going again.

Glass insurance yes but it will still cost me time on top of another glass deductible. Annoying that it's right in my field of view otherwise I'd say F it.Quote:
