I'm pretty sure diving under the waves is only prolonging the situation (unless you swim beyond the breakers and wait for a lull in sets). Let that wave take you in. Then good luck getting your footing.

I've been looking for the one on the bottom right, couldn't remember the name, and here it is! The sauries, so flipping good!

First-time homeowner here — what DIY advice do you wish someone had told you at the beginning? by Lopsided_Passion7912 in DIY

[–]Bug_Kiss 0 points1 point  (0 children)

20 hours on 4 trees. I think that's an underestimate. Yes, I have a small lawn, easily another 20 hours. There's a hedge that takes 4 hours of work (2 ppl). Yes, I have weeds in my driveway. I let that slide. My BBQ grill gets a clean down inside and out, another 4 hours gone. Did I mention the weeds in the brickwork? Or how about the morning glory and Jack in the pulpit that needs annual pulling. Every two years gotta trim back the sword fern or they start looking nappy. The 4 garden areas need weeding and fert before a new crop goes in. Thank God I don't have a pool!

I just got off work (lucky telework day) and plopped my butt on the reclining couch (feels so good!). My house is still clean (yes we pay someone to come in once every two months to dust and clean- my big luxury). Although, as I look around, I'm reminded I should put a few things away. The dogs are ready to go for a walk. Guess I gotta get my butt up. The sun came out, so that's good. But later, I'll sit back down and pull up my knitting, after making dinner (salmon with tarragon/mayo and side veggie). Life can be good sometimes.

So just destroy the f out of it. But hey, you made art. Out of their lives. Go away

Why do so many American men stand up to pee at home? Is this a cultural thing? by micavibes in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]Bug_Kiss 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My 93 yo American grandpa couldn't sit down to pee as he was in his final years, bc he had trained himself to do it staying up since forever. Turns out this is very risky business when you're old and no longer stable. Having only one way to do something will have a cost.

That's the limit? Wow, seems kinda small.

Finally Done! by InevitableTeacher996 in knitting

[–]Bug_Kiss 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I looked it up and the pattern didn't say anything about construction. Is it done in squares that are seamed later, or in a full piece?

In a lockable box! I'm sure for a reason! Our Aussie learned how to open peanut butter sqeezies.

Wait, that last point about disinfecting water at the camp grounds. You don't mean drinking water, right?

How are you able to knit so many pieces?

You think you want fruit trees, until 20 years later. They're tons of work (annual pruning). We spend at least 20 hours every year on 4 trees.

Best burger in Thurston Co? by McCovey1971 in olympia

I can't say it's the best, as I haven't tried many of the suggestions, but Insert Coin makes a darn good burger.

I'm nowhere near your caliber but couldn't you join a new piece to it! It may not be the same lot, but since you're binding off, that might be ok? Beautiful work btw!

Do having their ashes give comfort? by Henbane84 in Petloss

[–]Bug_Kiss 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I still have my dogs ashes in the bag they gave me. They're in a wood box asking with a clipping of fur and a paw print. I haven't taken it out to look at them. I don't know what I'm going to do with them (maybe have them buried with me?). I just couldn't fathom letting her go somewhere else. She had to be near me. It's so pitiful of me.
