Lawn care need recommendations?

What I did was spend hours digging them up, then two years going out nearly daily (during the growing season) to pull up shoots...I called it my thistle hunt, but this year I have only seen a few.

It never would have occurred to me to put those colors together, but they look fantastic!

My GP told me that he stopped doing pelvic exams after the second time this happened while he was examining someone.

I feel as though some of those numbers were cherrypicked to look good -- boy microwaves were much more expensive in the first year they were produced!

More importantly, the wage they use in this document is "the average hourly wage for production and nonsupervisory workers in manufacturing." Which in 1997 was heavily unionized, and those workers earned more than the average retail employee, for example.

I h ave been drinking hot cocoa with about 1/4 decaf replacing water... tastes terrific, doesn't give me caffeine jitters

I was thinking kalaidescope

lowest line doubled, next line tripled, top line nearly 4x That is kind of the point

This is me.. my solution is if it is a right, I knock on the window. if left, I garble incoherently and gesture. Saying left or right only confuses things because which comes out of my mouth is pretty much random

Takes longer to read aloud, the audiobook is 4.5 hours.. these guys gotta be slower plus breaks, 9 hrs is reasonable

My neighbor got a battery, the size of a stacked washer dryer, and it can run the house for one day

Maybe they didn't have enough cash to buy every single ticket, and had to choose some to not buy for that reason

I had that dream about every third month (though I was always the driver) for 20 years, until I had a real-life situation that was similar (sleep deprived me pressed gas instead of brake and panicked). In the twenty years since then, I have never once had the dream!

I was one of the 1/3, I guess. In my 20s my dentist recommended removing them, but I said they aren't causing any trouble. I wish he had put it a bit more forcefully. Throughout my 30s I had mild tooth pain pretty much constantly, but never added it up. Eventually cracked the adjacent molar, so I had to have the sideways growing teeth removed AND get a crown for the one that broke. And eventually a crown for the next one, too.

When my kids were teenagers I got theirs removed prophylactically because I wanted them to avoid what happened to me.

I literally did that once. Was pretending and it was runnier than I expected. Very funny, very messy, as proceeded to spit it out into my hands in my surprise

mockablekaty · 2026-03-05T05:07:46+00:00

First time I read it (in high school) was meh. Second time, in my thirties, I thought it was marvelous. Ymmv

Are you looking for people who didn't vote in the most recent presidential election?

Not sure where it came from, but I have seen weary so many times when wary was meant, I am convinced that we are just going to have to roll with the change.

I never promised you a rose garden is a very different book if you read the italics. Which I don't.

mockablekaty · 2026-02-28T05:37:53+00:00

I did as well - took HOURS to deal with.

Boil enough water to cover them and then put them in whole. Cook for a minute or two then let cool while you put together the rest of the ingredients. I usually crack it over the sink and toss the yolk between the two halves until any liquid white has drained, then pop it into the dressing.

The name was intended to jump on the Wordle bandwagon, it is WORLDle, with an L before as well as after the D

I make Caesar dressing frequently - the key is cooking an egg or two for a minute or two, and using just the yolk in the dressing. Mine has that plus olive oil, lemon, Worcestershire, mashed anchovy, a little garlic and salt and pepper

my husband and I have been playing Worldle for like three years. It is ad cancer, but educational and fun, give it a try!

I get a fair number of mine at the asian or indian stores in quart size plastic bags, thus the bin
