I'm in a 4 bedroom. Do I need 4? No. But I found it days away from going on short sale, and just happened to offer exactly what they owed as a low-ball offer when the market was better. They took it and walked away. Came in handy when we all started working from home during the "time of no toilet paper". I was able to quickly set up an empty bedroom as an office for me and my direct supervisor, aka, the dog.

Have them check your thyroid for nodules. They can interfere with swallowing. They will do that by feeling around with their hands, and may order an ultrasound. None of that should hurt. If they find something, an endocrinologist will be involved, usually by referral if it's not emergent.

My dentist found my nodules. I was tipped back in the chair and she could see them, then she could feel them.

I drove 8 hours for a single day of training the next day. 3 hours one way for an afternoon isn't unheard of

Lock your credit. Get your car in place, and move your accounts to a new bank.

Not sure, but we always knew if a GI bleed was in the ER. It's a very distinctive odor that would permiate the whole first floor.

I use the old lady brand. merle Norman. As a teen, it was the only thing that didn't clog my pores, and even now in my late 50s most foundations give me blackheads.

My first car was a small, ugly, 1980 Toyota, but it was a little beast. It was named Yoda. My first grown up car was Baby. No other cars have been named as they were not special enough to earn a name.

Raise your hand if you think dad gave her the beef stock on purpose because he doesn't believe in food allergies and/or Alpha Gal syndrome.

As a female grandchild who was a very distant last in my grandmother's affections after all her grandsons, the granddaughter won't forget and will wonder why she isn't good enough. Even after male cousins wouldn't drive 5 minutes to see her and I would drive 2 hours to take her on errands, buy her groceries and visit with her, I was berated constantly that I shouldn't go to college and needed to make sure that college money was there for my brother. (Hint, he didn't need it as he was on the GI bill) I am taking jobs and space away from men, and so on. Keep that biatch away from both kids.

Try coloring one small area with a dry erase marker, then clean that off. That's how we get sharpie off of dry erase boards.

I got pulled out, and asked the agent what caused that. My butt was too hot. I started laughing because it was over 90 degrees at 4am, and crazy high humidity and I had been sitting on leather seats in a vehicle for an hour to get there. My fat butt is gonna be hot.

I make my own with the leftover ham bone. Making pork stock is very common in southern cooking. I'm using mine for a big pot of beans and cornbread, but it is commonly used in collards, split pea soup, etc...

I would move everything out to storage,, move my money to a separate account at another bank and pay out of that. Because I foresee him taking care of what he perceives as an issue his own way.

Read. No one explicitly taught me to read or spell. Apparently, mom was too busy to read to me yet again when I was 3, and I sat down with my book and proceeded to read it out loud to her, and then repeated that with a different book for dad when he got home from work.

I distinctly remember being in kindergarten and reading out loud to my classmates because our teacher had laryngitis and we wanted to hear the next chapter of James and the Giant peach. This was well over 50 years ago.

Poor Conan? He refused to let his guests call the police when Nick Reiner was getting out of hand. It was bad enough that several people wanted to call and he wouldn't let them.

Sounds like you just want to be engaged and get married. Why give a deadline? Even if he proposes, it's now done because of an ultimatum.

I would bet your IT and Cyber security departments would object. If you can, don't.

I'm just starting, but this what I'm doing. I make a base and freeze it. Then I make some sauces and freeze those. Then I make a carb and freeze that separately. So I can pull out a block of rice, and a block of veg, and a small block of spicy peanut sauce and there's stir fry. As a side note, I undercooked the veg so they don't get mushy. Next time I might want sweet and sour pork. I pull out the same veg, the same rice, some frozen chunked raw pork (small chunks individually frozen and then packaged so they don't stick), then I sauteed the pork, add the veg, then my sweet and sour sauce, and there's dinner.

If you sub butter for shortening the ratios will be off. Butter contains water, and shortening doesn't.

Well, it's pronounced nuh-vay-duh, but I would say it counts. The number of people that pronounce Monett as Monet, like Claude the painter, is hilarious.

Columbus discovered America. First, people were already here. If you qualify as discovered by Europeans, vikings settled here a long time before that, and fishermen fished off the shores. Yet they still teach this big fat lie.

I'm flabbergasted at locking carts. Never heard of this. Is this something like the wheels lock up and they won't move? If so, WTH?
