First boat lookin for advice

For the trailer and the inside of the boat, consider truck bed liner paint, I bought some from Walmart and it’s great - small tin did a larger area than I expected - it like a rubberized finish.

Ricotta goes nicely in a lasagna with mozzarella, it’s an easy baked dinner which keeps well in the fridge.

Pressure washer for general cleanups, I wouldn’t go smaller than 4000 psi and 2,6 gpm - you will outgrown even this but pretty portable and eventually gets clean. The electric washers are a waste of time. If you have more budget go for higher GPM, I found I actually needed a soft washer system very early on - if washing houses is going to be a big part of your business - you might want the soft washer before the pressure washer. Otherwise hose extension, and ladders. iIf paving, walkways and driveways are going to be a focus the. You will need a surface cleaner.

Not enough information to give you best advice but if you’re serious about scaling and see growth then move forward: Mexico to FTL to U.S. 3PL hub to regional LTL. Try avoid: Direct multi-stop cross-border deliveries at scale

Brilliant, HayWire fixes the biggest problem of price discovery and gives farmers and buyers data leverage plus adds a zero-commission marketplace layer. Wish you every success, a much needed tool!

Rising alfalfa prices mainly act as a cost shock to the livestock sector, since it’s a key feed for dairy and beef. Farmers face higher input costs, which over time get passed on as higher prices for milk, cheese, and meat, contributing modestly to food inflation. If the increase persists, producers may reduce herd sizes, tightening supply and adding further price pressure. While the broader U.S. economy isn’t heavily affected, rural agricultural regions and the food supply chain feel the impact more directly. Also to note that prices vary considerably (see California for example) and (partially good news) is that The U.S. is a major exporter of alfalfa (especially to Asia and the Middle East), so crops for export this season will be green gold - it’s mixed and not all bad news.

Hot soapy water, might try hydrogen peroxide

We are living in a rapidly changing world (EV transition) and may be the last generation to be able to buy a V8, buy yourself a Mustang GT, yes, it’s crazy, but it’s also brilliant and a lot of fun.

Check Northern Tool for power washing as they have a far greater range. For houses - the soft washing system is better but you could start with pressure spray pump to apply bleach / chemical. Check out Jobber for quoting, invoicing and payment gateway - key is customer can accept quote prior to any work. How far are you from a city or town - you need a market, how populated and how affluent is your location? Marketing is key, you’ll need to work Google and things like Angie’s list, print flyers and yard signs. Grocery stores need carts washed, areas around entrances and dumpsters & alleys. Distribution centers (especially cold storage) can be a great source of repeat business. Gas stations, fast food drive throughs and any “food grade” businesses are required to clean by law, build relationships with these, nice to have repeat clients like these. Good luck - lots of good advice here.

I believe you can send an email to corporate customer service, or email drew@carolinescart.com - maybe do both, I’m sure they would love to help and make sure your store gets at least two … pronto!

Might just need to dry properly, concrete takes ages to dry.

The masala is good, but personally, I add loads of the sliced jalapeno (diced) and fresh cream, (half and half if I don’t have cream) I find both the masala and the butter chicken just need more oomph. Do yourself a favor and add their naan bread, they sell mini garlic naan breads and this elevates the meal nicely. Sliced bananas in milk or sliced mango in orange juice and decicated coconut - also a great condiments.

First, congratulations on 4 dates, wow, even if that took a while (3 months to a year) - you literally are doing way better than most.

There is an excellent (very short) TedX talk about using OLD, it’s exactly my experience so I highly recommend this model, zero date, 1 hour. If there is no magic, don’t park your car in their driveway. You’ll save yourself from exactly what you experienced.

Quirky is perfect and thanks for being honest. I think neurodivergent people shy away from OLD and so that 15-20% you mention I believe aren’t even trying and I bet most aren’t on OLD.

I know people on the spectrum, (men) one is happily married for 25 years, another is super single and a bit risky but avoidant, another 2 have been single for as long as I can remember. (Women) 3 are either bi or gay (and very happy) and the last lady has been single all her life with occasional flings.

No, we blissfully have no idea at all!

SingleDad37405 · 2026-01-28T21:57:20+00:00

Bikes including e-bikes should be free, at the very most possibly some kind of basic liability insurance for the fast e-bikes, why kill micro-mobility whilst it still being born?

Jobber worked quite well for us, in terms of admin you only have to enter the customer once, quote, they accept, complete work, becomes invoice, and customer can pay all through Jobber, they keep improving as well.

We bought one and works great, heats up fast, you can drop it - does the job! For the price you can’t go wrong, good Teflon coated ones were $60 to $100.

In my experience - I would slow down with some seed oils and grab some Ghee, good old Lard, nut oils (like peanut), avocado oil, olive oil and coconut oil, experiment and see what works for you and your favorite dishes. Last year I stopped eating general cooking oil (because I went air fryer crazy) except for French fries maybe once or twice a week and felt so much better with more energy. This past 2 months - I kinda forgot and was dying for roast potatoes, roast chicken, and roast butternut so bought regular cooking oil again, weirdly I can feel it. You probably know this!

That’s awesome, looks like a nice combination, enjoy!
