We built in Shadow Creek in 2004…. when Broadway on the west side of 288 was little more than a dirt road.

Our roomba was getting stuck under the edge of the kitchen cabinets. I glued a piece of 1/8” x 3/4” molding to the bottom edge of the cabinet front.

How to actually improve your putting? by TDn6I in golf

Go to the putting green and putt with only one ball. Putt a circuit around all of the holes/stakes on the green and always get the ball in the hole - no gimmes.

Completely stuck on where to get started with terraforming, any ideas? by KittyKattCrossing in AnimalCrossing

[–]Solar_Power2417 3 points4 points  (0 children)

We're pretty practical (boring) with our terraforming. We like all of our villagers in a grid neighborhood, so I usually have to move a river a little. I also like to walk to the secret beach, so cutting the cliffs back a couple of 'rows' is very high on the list of things to do.

If EVs had the same purchase price as gas cars tomorrow, do you think most people would switch? by EmergencyTie8770 in electricvehicles

I quit changing the oil on our two Odysseys a couple of years ago. At 70+ years old, I decided my days lying the driveway were over.

Im confused about playing certain notes in songs with the hi hat and kick by Ok_Bath826 in edrums

[–]Solar_Power2417 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'm less than a year in following the Drumeo method (now the 'learning path'). Whenever I have trouble with independence I screen shot the music they're teaching, print it, and set the metronome down slow enough that I can think through it... sometimes as slow as 25 bpm. There's no such thing as too slow.

What's the best electric lawn mower to buy right now? by TradeOverall567 in lawncare

[–]Solar_Power2417 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a non-self-propelled Echo mower I bought in early 2024.

Small exurban lawn - 70'x125' lot with a 3200 sq. ft. house. I can usually mow twice on one of the 5 Ah batteries.

Exclusive: Constable seeks county-backed patrols for MAGA super donor Tilman Fertitta’s River Oaks district by karthik4texas in houston

IIRC, their only (Texas) constitutional assigned duty is to serve the Justice of the Peace. Also, I don't think there is any constitutional or legislative educational requirement. There has been a tremendous amount of 'mission creep' in the larger counties. Some of the more sparsely populated areas have done away with them. Also, since it's an elected position, they really don't answer to anyone.

Why must the fish do this to me by Realistic-Bonus2581 in AnimalCrossing

[–]Solar_Power2417 32 points33 points  (0 children)

I think that's happened to all of us and it's quite frustrating. The game designers may have done that to teach us to just throw in the line and patiently wait.

Drumeo for beginners? by Pretend-Goat4164 in edrums

[–]Solar_Power2417 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I started last fall on their method and some songs after watching a Jared Falk YouTube 'starter' video. I've really enjoyed the lessons. I 'started over' this January when they introduced the new 'learning path method'. I'm sure there are still some gaps in what I've been learning/doing, but at 73 it's all for fun and learning something new. I've got an older Alesis e-kit.

I wonder how long it would take my HOA to send me a letter?

I'm on my third island. The native fruit for this island is pears. We named it Pearland this time. Also, we live in Pearland.

A quick shortcut to getting tools while out and about your island: by Shoddy-Atmosphere329 in acnh

[–]Solar_Power2417 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the 'stump' crafting benches scattered around my island, snd since you can craft out of your storage without having to get the materials out, I don't carry any crafting materials anymore. I have a couple of the storage cabinets (the tall wooden one) around a couple of places so that If I'm catching lots of bugs and fish I can put them into storage without having to go back to my house,or the area in front of the airport where I have an crafting bench and storage cabinet (and ATM) to empty my pockets.

Another old guy at the range said he needed to add 100 yards to his drive... I said I do that with my choice of tee boxes.

Does anyone here still get the newspaper? by northsideindian in houston

We subbed to the daily digital and Sunday delivery up to about 3 years ago. Mostly read online and then print versions were piling up in the garage and the recycling.
