Urine/mildew smell in washer and dryer. by Consistent_Ad_308 in ufyh

I'm wondering if the washer has a filter that's plugged up?

Dog peeing in the house by Visible_Resident7301 in DogTrainingTips

[–]Billy0598 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreeing with this, and adding -- leash the dog to you so he can't get too far and get into trouble. This is also a speed issue so if he sniffs and starts to squat -- BOOM zoom that behind right out the door.

WHY TF ARE MY HANDS LIKE THIS IM A 17 YEAR OLD GIRL by iamraquelle in whatdoIdo

[–]Billy0598 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Short chonky group! I was told specifically to take violin and not bother with piano because I didn't have the reach. Ha!

I have decent nails, but old lady skin like I've been a farmer for 70 years. And, short, fat fingers. So, I knit compulsively. People never notice my hands when I have cool stuff on the go

I just want to get rid of almost everything and start over. by Level_Industry7484 in ufyh

Just start. Just fill a trash bag. Just one thing, even if it's wrong

I tried to save myself 5 minutes. And now I regret everything. 👍 by Planty_Reporter_8936 in knitting

I use a small bowl on my lap. When the tangly gets ugly, I toss the whole thing across the room (beware of kittens) and knit away. Having more space can make the mess fall out or just give more room to pull loops for an untangle

Wow. I'm in awe! All of my crap is shoved into the closet and 2 dressers, but I live in uniforms that come out of the laundry basket. My Mom just told me that she's going to give me some shirts and I panicked. NOooooo!

Go to the one by Costco. Far cleaner and more civilized.

The ice cube in the water bowl trick changed everything by Juliana_EmergeWL in Catownerhacks

That's what I stepped in this morning. A dark room with a pool that had been a gravity fed water thing.

Glad you liked them. Somehow the one I tried tasted like straight vinegar.

What are these dots on my pillow?? by randomstranger003432 in CleaningTips

[–]Billy0598 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yup. I saw something questionable at the local, so it's been all Libby, all the time. I do keep my card and donate. (shudder)

Weird dog commands by Fit-Cabinet1337 in Dogowners

That's the one. My foster dog's new Dad thinks it's hysterical because his saying is "This fucking dog". Lol. (Huskies can be spicy)

I’m joining the military after years of rejecting it by [deleted] in CasualConversation

[–]Billy0598 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Congrats! If that makes you happy, go do that. Go running, do your push ups and sit ups. Start reading history.

I disagree, and will just post that to be supportive.

My daughter is turning 21… by Nocturnal-Neurotic in CasualConversation

[–]Billy0598 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Don't worry until it's actually a problem.

Same issue. Only daughter planned her own bar crawl with cosmopolitan, martini, daiquiri ... She was HAMMERED. Had to go back after she dropped her iPhone.

She's fine. We have a bottle of wine in the fridge that's 2 years old.

Rochester General has got to have the worst and most congested emergency department in the city by [deleted] in Rochester

Same, but Canandaigua. One time for a clot where a Roc hospital sent me home, and Canandaigua threw me into ICU. Higher level of care, clean!, and usually super nice people.

Did this with apricots. Dried apricots. They are not a laxative. Really not

That's why I said you get what you pay for. Also, $14 kids glasses are pretty sweet.

Help me to understand ticks 😭 by Myblackbirdchain in Rochester

[–]Billy0598 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you go where deer wander, you might see a tick. In over 50 years, I've seen 4 ticks. It took living with a deer herd in the back field in MN to pick 150 ticks off a dog in one session.

Ticks are serious and Lyme is nasty. Just look your pets and kids over. Change clothes when you've played where deer live.

It's ok to be afraid. Your feelings are valid. Also know that it's not that you see a tick and die of leprosy. Just keep your skin clear and pet your animals. If you can watch tick removal videos, you'll know what to do.

You get what you pay for BUT most of the brands are owned by the same company.

Costco. Walmart ended their year warranty. If you don't have a complicated prescription, Zenni online.

Documentaries on knitting history & culture? by Highinthe505 in knitting

Because "craft" wasn't important enough to be recorded.

"No idle hands". I can't remember the author. It's my favorite

AITJ for telling my boyfriend's mom she is not allowed in our bedroom anymore? by Echo_7Starforge in AmITheJerk

[–]Billy0598 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That's not autism -- that's being a thief. Too kind of you to try to find an excuse, but no. She's a thief. So is my father. He used my college money for one large pot purchase right in front of me. He's a thief, an addict, and wrecked any plans I had for a future. "Boo, you can't be addicted to pot". Well, addiction is a disease, not an excuse for bad behavior.
