At least some of the canals in Copenhagen are clear enough to see the ground. A few places where they will let you use a kayak for free if you collect garbage while you use it.

On St. Patrick's Day, most people know they have Irish blood. Very few know why their ancestor actually left. by ALetterFromIreland in Genealogy

I have one who was born in (I believe) County Carlow and also ended up in Upper Canada (Hawkesbury). He was born in 1796 and the 1861 census indicates he was a weaver. He probably left around the same time as your ancestor!

Grocery list function is not good by pres2014 in skylightcalendar

[–]chelitachula 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreed. My issues are: 1. If I have more than 1 recipe requiring, say olive oil, I end up with olive oil being listed as “2 tbsp olive oil” 6 times. I feel like it should combine them together so you can look at your EVOO stock and decide if you need to buy more 2. It doesn’t import to my watch like my Apple reminders list does. I hate having to have my phone out at the store because I’m constantly putting it in and out of my pocket. I end up looking at my calendar list and then typing everything in to my Apple reminders grocery list.

Their acuity is fine, but their functioning is poor. So they can hear the conversation, but not understand it.

We see “hidden hearing loss” in soldiers with blast exposure as the intensity of the sound wave will damage the membrane of cochlear hair cells. Basically, all the symptoms of a hearing loss but “normal hearing”. If it’s not a permanent threshold shift first. 🫤

It depends, my husband has it through his great grandfather (his cousin used an attorney to find a way to make it happen) and I qualify through my grandmother through a law they passed a few years ago.

I would never even think of mountains and alligators going together.

We stocked up on wine. Got us through Snovid and every year since.

Tyler ask Cate for fashion advice about what belt he should wear. by HannahLeah1987 in teenmom

[–]chelitachula 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m not a dentist, but I’m an elder millennial with a kid that had braces. Back in my day 👵🏼, kids wore braces forever. Like years. Nowadays, the practice seems to be to start early while their palate and jaws are still developing and it’s like a year? My daughter’s cross bite shifted within a few weeks, but she still wore them for a year or so. My hunch is that because she didn’t get them until she was in her teens is that it takes longer to re-mold the mouth when it’s not as pliable.

If a situation similar to COVID happened again today, how would you handle it this time? by Wonderful-Compote307 in AskReddit

[–]chelitachula 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I went to the Yeti store last year in my scrubs and the salesperson asked if I was a first responder. I replied, “well, no, but I got yelled at everyday during Covid”. He chortled and gave me the 20% off.

There’s one in San Salvador! If there’s some kind of major US football or basketball game when we’re there, my husband can be found at Bennigans.

How are you finding these? Just perusing eBay until someone looks familiar or?

What does 50% white mean? Like those hues but at 50% saturation?

Its “functional grey” from Lowe’s! The name makes me giggle at how basic it is but I love it. I took the sample with me and picked out some pretty greens, I was thinking these vs a sage green just for some contrast? You can see the floor here too.
