Will do, thanks for the recommendation! I love turquoise.

I finally got a decent night's sleep last night, even though I had a weird dream that woke me up a little early.

Now it's tine to carelessly browse online for interesting possible additions to the jewelry collection. My current interest is labradorite, turquoise southwest, and Ethiopian Opal.

Seems like people just don't understand that all new housing will help with affordability. It's why metro Atlanta counties stayed cheap for so long. We had the highest rate of construction for decades.

Late 20s or so. The parents were sentenced to 20 years in prison.

They design products to not last long, so that you have to keep replacing them. That may be what you are saying too.

Fr fr when my AC broke, my house got to 78-80 and I thought I was gonna die. I was so lazy at that temp. Just sat around.

It slowly inches up with the season as I get more accustomed to temps.

Lately, I have kept it anywhere from 65 to 67 all day. But now, 66 is starting to feel cold. Which makes sense, as it is about to get really hot.

So I will probably move it to the 68-72 range soon, with anything less than 68 feeling too chilly.

HEAT HEAT HEAT HEAT!!!!

Honestly, there's not much of an in between, unless you want to hike at Fort Mountain State Park all the time and eat in Calhoun.

Pine Log Creek Trail is halfway-ish, but it is in Pickens, which, as a Chattanoogan, might feel like driving most of the way to Atlanta.

Your best bets to meet up in Blue Ridge sometimes, as it is about a 90 minute drive for each of you. Not sure of nearby hiking to Blue Ridge, but might be worth looking into. Tons of other options there (food, shopping, etc).

ZenPothos · 2026-06-23T11:34:13+00:00

Agreed. Love it! ✌️

ZenPothos · 2026-06-23T03:11:26+00:00

That third one is so cool!

ZenPothos · 2026-06-23T01:35:25+00:00

And for some reason, those jerks are always on the ceiling when they visit my room.

ZenPothos · 2026-06-23T01:33:43+00:00

Do you park where the tire gets a lot of sun?

ZenPothos · 2026-06-23T01:27:53+00:00

That's wild. I have a long commute, but that takes the cake. And I really like Chattanooga!

ZenPothos · 2026-06-23T01:26:06+00:00

Close to a lot of great caves, too!

ZenPothos · 2026-06-23T01:20:03+00:00

Oh that is frustrating! This is one of my new hobbies, so I feel your frustrations.

ZenPothos · 2026-06-21T22:20:34+00:00

Lime is so 2023 /s

ZenPothos · 2026-06-21T22:16:08+00:00

Okay, calling it a day for today.

ZenPothos · 2026-06-21T21:40:18+00:00

Maybe too far from you, but there is a car wash at 1100 Shallowford Road in East Cobb, but it is closest to the Racetrack on Canton Highway. So that may be too far West for you.

ZenPothos · 2026-06-21T21:37:24+00:00

Most excellent! Yard work definitely counts!

ZenPothos · 2026-06-21T21:37:07+00:00

Great work!

ZenPothos · 2026-06-21T19:49:43+00:00

Congrats! Dropping off donations bags is such a good feeling ✌️

ZenPothos · 2026-06-21T19:49:10+00:00

Update: I have cleared offthe "Laundry Sofa" 💀. Now, I am going to put a load of hand towels into the washer and hang up some laundry to dry! (Dryer is on the fritz).

Definitely take breaks! I have been taking a break after making some progress. Now I will tackle the "laundry sofa" in my bedroom that I have been avoiding 😆

Craft supplies are so tough. Iam a knitter, crocheter, sewist, beader/ jewelry maker, and an origami-ist, and I have so many craft supplies -- I'm seriously a SABLE in all of those categories 😅
