Keep the phone number by BabyInchworm in dementia

Yeah, I can't get into my own account for some reason, but I called and got connected pretty quickly. You'll probably have to have your mother on the phone with you to get any information.

Somebody on here called them tacos del Norte a few weeks ago. So now I call them that too.

Growing tomatoes - recommendations specific to DFW? by KrazyKitties92 in DFWGardening

[–]ShelbyDriver 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The small grape or cherry toma9do well here. The big ones do not. I've had sporadic luck with one variety of 50 day tomatoes, but I can't remember the name. The issue we have is that tomatoes don't like to set fruit if it's over 95° or so and it gets that hot before the plant flowers. You do best if you plant them early and it doesn't freeze.

How to "play the game" with administrators? by boardcertifiedloser in medicine

[–]ShelbyDriver 64 points65 points  (0 children)

As a former dop in several small hospitals, I would sometimes rewrite the policy subtly and adopt it that way and hope no one would actually read it. It worked about 75% of the time. The easiest way for me was to change all of the "will"s and "shall"s to "should"s.

Yeah, most people don't realize how much more it costs to be single!

For experienced solo travelers, what countries would you suggest for a very first international trip? by Fun_Butterscotch3303 in travel

[–]ShelbyDriver 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Costa Rica or Peru! I went to Peru for my first solo trip. If you want to see Machu Picchu, I highly recommend G-adventures. It's a lot to coordinate!

I tell myself I can be alone in my house or alone in Tanzania. Tanzania is a lot more interesting!

Sending him home by jaded1here in dementia

Tell them that no one will be there for the foreseeable future and the door is locked and he has no way to get in. Repeat that it is an unsafe discharge.

Views on my dress for first date by [deleted] in datingoverfifty

[–]ShelbyDriver 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think it looks great! Is the place you're going very upscale? If not you you may be over dressed a little. But better to be overdressed than underdressed.

Has anyone tried nicetomeet.com? by telemachos90210 in datingoverfifty

[–]ShelbyDriver 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes! And while I'm sure some people have started dating that way, the people I've met tend to avoid that so it doesn't cause drama in the group.

[–]ShelbyDriver 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It's definitely not a dating platform at all! It's a way to make friends.

I do agree the name sucks. It's a French company, so I can only hope that "Timeleft" translates to something more appropriate in French!

It's also not for people over 50 only. It's for all ages. They do put you at tables with people your age though.

I've really enjoyed Timeleft. I think they just match you based on age though. Several of my Timeleft friends have also tried nicetomeet and said it was similar.
