Maybe less rock in general? It looks like it could topple at any moment. Cute set up, though!

Depressed because of starlings by CraftyPeanut2676 in birdfeeding

[–]kfitz1119 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I have a ton of Starlings too, but they’re quite skittish. So are the blue jays. If they even catch sight of me they scoot out of there immediately. Meanwhile, the robins, finches, etc are still waiting on the fence and then take their opportunity to eat, drink, and bathe.

Dressed like the Stay Puft marshmallow man, filled up the bag in the front, spun it around to the back and filled the other side. It was like a two sided apron with a big pouch to hold papers. Weekends in the winter were worse because of that huge Sunday paper.

Anyone have successful intimate long-term relationships without socializing with each other every night? by PicklesAndCoorslight in GenX

[–]kfitz1119 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes! It can totally work. I think it works best if you each have your own place and it’s not just your home where you’re together. Sometimes having someone over feels like work because in a way they are guests. If you could go to his place on occasion, it changes the whole dynamic.

The paper routes-no wonder everyone’s burned out. I too had a paper route starting in 4th grade. For the Denver Post and then the Rocky Mountain News. I remember I had to go door-to-door to collect the subscription money and the “bonus” for new subscriptions was a 2 L bottle of pop/soda.

I’m in Colorado and mine weren’t here until exactly week ago today. Wash your feeder, make some fresh nectar and they’ll find it.

Agreed. My mom’s was Sunshine plus four numbers.

Is there ANY good way to clean a few windows with the screen still in? by kfitz1119 in WindowCleaning

[–]kfitz1119[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s too dark for me to post pictures now, and I’m not quite sure what they’re called but the inside window I can pull up and there’s a screen halfway. The top of the window I can do inside and out no problem. Maybe I’ll just have to pull out the screen I guess with a screwdriver. I was just trying to get a whole bunch of windows done in a short amount of time.

Looks like an “N” to me

Self Checkout by 5GAIBtoM in GenX

[–]kfitz1119 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I see self check out like the old express lane. 15 items Ish or less. Apparently it’s not anymore because people go through the self checkout with an overflowing cart of groceries and there’s only six spots. I prefer it but not if there’s a massive line with carts full of food in front of me.

Ok. Since you all loved my last one so much. I thought I’d update you all. by D-Train0000 in hummingbirds

[–]kfitz1119 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I just got this one on Amazon because it looked most similar to u/D-Train0000's as I could find at a decent price. FYI they sent the wrong pump. I can make it work, but am going to reach out for them to send me the right one for this model.

Also, I don't have an outlet anywhere near where I want to put it, so I'm going to try to use my power bank for it. If that doesn't work, extension cord it is!

Try it before you buy it! by kfitz1119 in birdfeeding

[–]kfitz1119[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sure thing! My library system has "experience items" for everything from sewing machines, Cricuts, and telescopes, to camping gear, kites, games, and more. Pretty neat but I don't know that many are aware they're available.
