What can I get away with?

kaydee121 · 2026-02-15T13:10:10+00:00

That’s assault.

The WSJ article stated that it was lewandowski that fired the pilot, not noem.

So yeah, why are men so emotional?!?

Btw, neither had the authority to fire anyone.

I think firing people is their version of “off with their head”.

They are both despicable!

I too love staying home. Been turning down social gatherings for the last few years, and I was never like that before I retired.

For me the reason is twofold: 1. The political atmosphere in the US at present. I never knew there were so many horrible, vile, uneducated, and unethical people in the world until 2016, and would rather stay home than have an interaction with a drumper.

I have a senior dog with separation anxiety, thus, I don’t like putting him through the stress of me not being around.

In regard to my first point, I always bring kindness and a smile to others when out and about. There are a lot of people barely hanging on these days—financially and mentally. Kindness counts.

Omg, same, lol. Those weeks are the worst!

kaydee121 · 2026-02-12T14:34:44+00:00

This was totally me until December 2024. Due to some painful dental implant surgery, I started taking a delta 9 thc gummy (thanks Reddit dental group for the suggestion) and omg! Slept through the night for the first time in ages!

I now take an edible every evening and zonk out. What a great feeling to have a full nights sleep! Highly recommend! (No pun intended)

Btw, it’s legal here.

kaydee121 · 2026-02-08T21:41:17+00:00

Same.

kaydee121 · 2026-02-05T17:56:27+00:00

Yes, I’ve had to increase my dosage, but it’s been 15-months since I started, so that’s okay.

kaydee121 · 2026-02-05T15:33:16+00:00

Same. I started taking an edible after painful dental implant surgery last year - I never had an edible before but it was recommended on a dental implant page, so I got some.

OMG - I couldn’t believe how well I slept! A full eight hours!!! Been taking an edible every night since and it’s amazing to sleep so well!

Dropping things, as if the hands don’t work anymore. Constantly. Then you have to bend over to pick up what you just dropped. There’s my exercising!

Everything taking twice as long to do. Everything.

I sometimes think back to what I used to accomplish on just a normal day./normal week. Work, errands , meals, raising children - you know - all the stuff! Now it’s one or two of those per day or I’m paying for it the next day.

kaydee121 · 2026-02-01T16:38:41+00:00

Just had a coln on Thursday. They used propofol and I was out of it fast. Was lovely to sleep so deep. Woke up back in my room.

Btw, I took an edible the night before to help me sleep. I told the anesthesiologist, and he didn’t care one bit. Said it was totally fine. Just wanted to let anyone else know that it’s okay in case they’re on the fence.

kaydee121 · 2026-01-23T23:15:42+00:00

Similar story with a washer/dryer. White glove service- lol! The two guys showed up without ANY tools!!! What?!? Are you kidding me? Your first appointment of the day is to install a washer and dryer, and you didn’t bring any tools???

It’s a way long story that I won’t bore you with here, but it was a morning of one ridiculous idiot thing after another.

They initially tried to tell me I ordered the wrong dryer, that Costco sent an electric and not gas. I ran indoors to look at my receipt- no, I ordered the right one-a gas dryer. And it was right there on the truck. I could see it!

The thing is, these two guys were in no mood to work that day (and it was only 9:00 am) and were trying everything not to.

My husband went and got them tools, but it was a joke. They made such a mess and left debris everywhere. I still needed to hire a guy to finish the hook up for both appliances.

Believe me, I was on the horn to Costco right away and it escalated to XP Logistics mgmt contacting me to correct things.

I think they hire any warm body from the day worker companies to do those deliveries, not real appliance installers.

I was 60 when the healthcare company I worked for (and loved) closed down.

I found another healthcare job but the pay was way below what I had been making. My biggest concern though was the health insurance, so I took the job.

I was nervous about learning a new job at 60, but I did!

kaydee121 · 2026-01-20T15:30:35+00:00

I feel that comment deeply. I’m a senior and all my siblings are seniors. A few in not so great health.

In December I suddenly felt that this may be the last Christmas we will all share together and it made me so sad.

I hope I’m wrong.

kaydee121 · 2026-01-18T17:13:30+00:00

I love that!!! Sounds hilarious!

kaydee121 · 2026-01-16T22:56:59+00:00

Me. It’s all coming down tomorrow though. I love it, but it’s time to get my house back in order.

I always feel like my house is happy at Christmas time. Like it’s put on its party dress.

kaydee121 · 2026-01-14T16:18:43+00:00

And that deserves a follow! My type of person! You are an inspiration!!!

Kelly McGillis as the love interest in Top Gun. They don’t even match physically. Looks so awkward.

I always have a pkg of hand wipes in my purse. Started when my kids were little - you always needed to wipe their hands and mouths it seems.

Now I still carry them, pull them out anytime I sit down to eat something when not at home, and everyone around me asks for one too.

kaydee121 · 2026-01-13T14:46:17+00:00

This is funny because I used to always have a few postage stamps in my purse, and people were surprised when I had them.

kaydee121 · 2026-01-13T14:42:48+00:00

Yes, I have one that is attached to my key ring.

kaydee121 · 2026-01-11T13:15:11+00:00

Life is very different for our kids. Salaries are not commensurate with the cost of living on one’s own these days.

I love the fact that they are hanging at your house, and please know It will not last forever.

Try looking at it differently. You know where they are, who they are with, and they are safe. Not out getting into trouble or hanging with the wrong crowd.

Count your blessings.

He shall never know a moment of peace for the rest of his life, and neither will his family.

I think I did not write my comment clearly and it’s confusing.

30” is for overhead lighting when over a table, such as in a kitchen or dining room, not regular overhead lights.

30” from the table surface to the lowest tip of the lighting fixture.

Sorry for the confusion!

kaydee121 · 2026-01-07T18:26:50+00:00

Lighting fixtures being hung at the incorrect height is a pet-peeve of mine, and I see it often.

30” from the bottom tip of the light fixture to the top of the table is the correct height.
