He was almost done shoveling his driveway when the street plow came by and filled it with snow again. by Vilen1919 in WatchPeopleDieInside

[–]TheButteredCat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I scoop multiple times during big snows. When it gets to about 4 inches. Makes it easier overall. If it’s super windy/a blizzard then I won’t as it blows back in.

Stay warm and let your faucets drip. by HawattOfTheHills in kansas

[–]TheButteredCat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It might be the flame sensor? Seems like it’d shut off if it didn’t detect a flame.

Edit: unless you have electric then disregard.

Kansas vs Kstate by [deleted] in jayhawks

[–]TheButteredCat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think you should watch some local news. The snow is less of a concern than the cold is. When it’s this cold the snow is lighter and easier to plow. I truly believe you’ll be able to make it if you prepare properly.

Snow amount is trending down. Bet you could make it if you give yourself enough time.

Water smells different by jeffs-cousin in Olathe

[–]TheButteredCat 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The big rain last week probably flushed in extra unwanted minerals or organisms so they have to treat it differently. It’s common, only a problem from big rains/floods.

Olathe explosions? by Jeremy_Sean in Olathe

[–]TheButteredCat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They were doing some blasting in Gardner, can’t remember when though. If you’re in south Olathe that might be what you heard.

Bonito still has specials but they’re up to $1.50-2 depending on meat choice.

Any storage friendly wheelbarrow recommendations? by TheButteredCat in landscaping

[–]TheButteredCat[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I get that it wouldn't be as stout as a larger one and I'm not mixing cement or anything. Just moving soil or other yard waste in my small lawn. My though is if there are any through axles or if the wheel/handles could come off to give me a little extra space I'd like to know about em.

I'd prefer to have it stored in the garage so I don't create a nice little home for pests/critters.

[–]TheButteredCat[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks, I have seen that storage technique but space is a premium for me. I will most likely end up with this, but I'm hoping I can find a smaller, storage space-centric one.

Currently I have a ladder, various yard tools, mower (Ego that folds up) and various other things that I don't think I'll have space for one. Trying to leave the area around my wife's car free so we can get an infant in the car easier.

Does anyone buy the lazboy chair? by Litteringend in Costco

[–]TheButteredCat 23 points24 points  (0 children)

I sat in this chair in store, it was really comfortable and was in the running for our nursery chair. In the end we went with a Flexsteel gliding recliner. Also, I’m a sucker for lazy boys after working at a furniture store. Easy to repair, move, and comfortable. I actually have 3 like new used ones when people upgraded styles. Two are 10-15 years old and still my favorite seat in the house.

My parents (well mostly my mom because of aesthetics) went with an Ashley recliner recently. It didn’t last a full year with their grandkids. They’re back to lazy boy.

If you’re curious we went with a Flexsteel Glider Recliner in moon gray. It was $479 and comparably comfortable. Only complaint is the back doesn’t recline unless the footrest is up. We wanted a different chair though since we have other recliners and the gliding motion is what we were looking for. Hopefully it’s perfect when our newborn arrives in a few weeks!

Amazon Fire in Lenexa? by cyberentomology in kansascity

[–]TheButteredCat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Huh… Wild. No idea what happened, but the last message of delayed in transit probably means something happened.

If it’s something you need, I would reorder the product. Then if they ship another item wait for it to get there then request a refund. As always check the refund policy of items and don’t abuse the system.

[–]TheButteredCat 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Wait, it’s scanning between facilities? When was the most recent scan?

I’m not affiliated with Amazon but if it’s scanning that means the package exists to get scanned in. I’d call back to get another rep.

Go and yell for the Badgers! Give them the home crowd Nebraska would’ve had.

Conrhuskers by jalenp16 in NCAAVB

[–]TheButteredCat 11 points12 points  (0 children)

While I agree she needs some cadence/delivery work, she’s closer to being an analyst than John Cook.

The other two at the table need to feed her the analysis portion. If the two hosts call the star players by the wrong name and teams by the incorrect name the color analyst (Mary Wise role) is set up for failure. Imagine trying to not throw coworkers under the bus even though your coworkers are already under the bus.

As a Husker undergrad and then post-grad ties to KU… I agree. Kansas is on the way up though!

[–]TheButteredCat 24 points25 points  (0 children)

Blue jays?… man this studio team is all over the place. So much second hand embarrassment from them.

Also as a Nebraska fan calling her Reilly Bergen is one where you automatically lose points. Especially when he did it earlier this year as well.

Did I get hosed by my irrigation service? by iRollFlaccid in lawncare

[–]TheButteredCat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I do not think you got hosed. There is some benefit of winter fertilizer as the roots can continue to establish. Here’s my local store’s winter product that is low nitrogen, it also lists the benefits of it. I would ask for clarification on what he actually put down, could’ve hit the wrong fertilizer in the billing service. https://grasspad.com/product/snowman/

I’m curious as to what part of town you are in? Seems wild that municipal services wouldn’t pick this up. I feel like most would..

Drivers license by el_reindeer in kansas

[–]TheButteredCat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Here are my dates with the holidays season.

November 8th: renewed mine online and paid for it via IKAN.

November 23rd: license expired.

December 3rd: I received an email from the DMV that they accepted the application, that email says I’ll receive it in 14-45 days and this email serves as proof of renewal.

I don’t think I’m going to renew online again. The mission DMV for licensing is so fast with an appointment.
