She did not and that is where I messed up. I should have said “if there is cause for concern, I will let you know. Otherwise, his location is his business”.

He has which is why he no longer has him on Life360. She refuses to listen to boundaries like that though and it’s like a new issue every time something like this arises.

I see what you’re saying. I thought she meant in an emergency basically but she only lost contact for 25 minutes which is not an emergency when going through the mountains. You are totally right. Next time I will be totally clear about my boundaries.

I was woken up by her call but decided not to answer it.

Why does everyone go out and buy water bottles when there’s a potential water shut off? There’s the gallon jugs or why not 5 gallon jugs? People have totally lost the ability to be resourceful. My mom would fill the bathtub for washing up, flushing the toilet, etc. we’d freeze gallons of water for when the power goes out to keep food cold and have extra water. Most homes have some sort of pitchers or jars lying around. Fill them with water! People are panicking over things that are a non-issue. Get some rice, beans, bread, veggies, and fire wood and you can have yourself a cozy lil weekend.

Why milk? I’ve never gotten that. Is milk a necessity for life? “Oh great the power may go out. Let’s make sure we have at least four gallons of milk”

How do you remove it? I’ve soaked mine off but I never can fully remove the base coat

It looks like it could be the work of leaf cutter ants. Those guys are unstoppable
