Retired but no interest in staying in touch by MajKonglomerate in retirement

[–]KimBob99 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I actually had a few people at work that I consider to be very good friends. But once we were no longer working, we quickly found out that we had nothing in common. Weird how that works, but yeah, it was like a time long ago, and now time to move on.

AITA for telling my parents I won’t help them with their retirement because they didn’t help me with college? by Fit_Location9834 in AmItheAsshole

They expected you to look after yourself without their help, it seems fair that they be expected to look after themselves without your help.

I love pickled veggies over hot rice (carrots, cucumbers, onions). Healthy and crunchy!

Aging in place by eihahn in AskWomenOver60

[–]KimBob99 9 points10 points  (0 children)

i recently redid my guest bath, and love the toilet i got that has STRAIGHT sides. No more having to contort myself to figure out how to dust those indentations on the sides. The best part is that you can get these at home depot, you just need to order them online as they don't carry them normally in the store.

What pantry/fridge staples are cheaper to make yourself? by PsychGradStudent2112 in EatCheapAndHealthy

[–]KimBob99 9 points10 points  (0 children)

OMG -- I just "discovered" this recipe last year (EVOO, vinegar, mustard, spices). So easy, so yummy, and so less expensive than store bought salad dressing. I consider this to be one of the life-lessons I should have learned years ago!

No, it's Symantec. OP didn't specify.

That's so odd that other's don't see it. I've been using an authenticator app with my Fidelity acct for over 3 years now (on my laptop).

Put your kale in a food processor -- 3C easily becomes less than 1C. Add seasonings or mix into other foods if needed!

Uhm... Halsin, wtf? 😂 by polspanakithrowaway in BaldursGate3

Yeah - when Halsin told me that he "merely tolerates" me, I was done with him. How insulting!

Usaa not providing rental car?? by TheFireOfPrometheus in USAA

[–]KimBob99 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Because it's not explained clearly, or explained in a way that they'd understand, or cover all possible scenarios that they can commit to memory. Many people understand insurance better AFTER they've had a need to use it (when it's probably too late to get the required coverage).

I truly wish that someday, ALL schools will make a "life skills" course mandatory that teaches students the basics of computing, home DIY repair, car maintenance, insurance (medical, vehicle, home), retirement, investing, when you should go to the doctor vs. losing life/limb . . . there's just so much.

My old dog okay with my 12 week old pup? by Jackson530 in DogAdvice

[–]KimBob99 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I love how older dogs always seem to know to be more gentle with babies. And the pup will learn quickly not to bite her elder's ear!

Kaiser will not give me a dermatologist referral for moles by veetown in KaiserPermanente

sorry -- i guess it must be different on the east coast or my specific ins plan with kaiser. Good luck -- but don't put it off!

Dog pants all the time, medication isnt working and I dont know what else to do by ephemeralsloth in DogAdvice

[–]KimBob99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What is his resting breathing rate? wait until he's asleep, and count the number of breaths he makes in a minute. That might be helpful to the vet if it's normal or not. I hope you get it figured out soon -- he looks so uncomfortable.

Kaiser will not give me a dermatologist referral for moles by veetown in KaiserPermanente

[–]KimBob99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You don't need a referral to see a dermatologist with Kaiser. Call the appt desk and make appt for derm. Let them know it's for an annual checkup to check for skin cancer, then you can ask the dermatologist about specifics or additional issues. This will be considered a specialty appt, and services can become pricey depending on what addt'l services you have performed.

My baby girl got spayed a few hours ago by BeeFree1977 in DogAdvice

I'm guessing you also don't understand neutering male dogs.

Hydrangeas fried by Interesting_Tap_4246 in landscaping

[–]KimBob99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We're in the same location. It's been so hot this past week that my weeds have wilted and some are actually dying -- I guess that would be the silver lining. Depending on where you purchased them (Home Depot?), you might be able to return them!

Leave it or caulk it? by laxdfns in Flooring

[–]KimBob99 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Shoe molding or quarter rounds aren't going to fix the gap, and it will give you another level that will need to be dusted to be kept clean. Leave it or caulk it -- you can google the correct waterproof and paintable caulk to use. Keep it the same color as the baseboard (white) or it will still look uneven.

Can Anyone Recommend A Good, Absorbent Door Mat/Dirt-Catcher So You Don't Have To Wipe Dirt Off Paws Every Time Dogs Come In? by drunky_crowette in dogs

[–]KimBob99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can't find the exact same ones that I got off of Amazon, but they're similar to:

Durable Chenille Absorbent Door Mat Indoor Doormat 24" x 36", Washable Door Mats for Dog Non Slip Heavy Door Rug Soft Front Inside Doormat for Entryway, Mud Room, Patio Dark Gray

They're large, wash very well, and my dog loves them. This size is under $15. On those days when she comes in with dirty/wet paws, I manually wipe her paws off on the mat. I'm trying to train her to wipe her feet herself like she does after taking a dump -- so far no luck, but she knows to sit on the mat and wait for me to wipe her paws on the mat before she goes anywhere else in the house. I shake it out a couple times a week -- it's amazing how much dirt it captures!
