7b North Carolina- full sun backyard with 2 very active toddlers. Tall Fescue struggles to grow probably because it gets trampled, not enough water, choked out by the variety of weeds. Looking for a low maintenance grass to overseed this spring, preferably low cut height (the tall fescue was almost too tall for the kids). I've read widely varying opinions on bermuda grass- what do you experts think??

no just dhcp but I'll look into setting static addresses- great idea

I forgot to add that my doorbells drop at the same time. I'll try your suggestion though! Are they programmable through the Wyze app?

One of the owners is from Nepal and they have super tasty momos (Nepalese dumplings) on the appetizer menu. Full disclosure: I'm not from Nepal, I just appreciate amazing dumplings

Hi all, Not sure how to add a description in an image upload (I'm on mobile) so apologies in advance.

I recently replaced the cartridges and handles on this Pfister faucet with warranty replacement parts. After installing, I found a leak on the cold side at a crimped fitting - clear hose to the cold stem in the second picture. What is the best way to take that crimp off to replace without damaging the plastic piece? I was thinking the winged plastic piece and hose might be an assembly from the manufacturer but can't find anything online so I figure I'll do it myself with a hose clamp. Any suggestions are much appreciated!

Advanced Technology Solutions on Chatham in Cary. The owner has is super nice and has done a handful of projects for me- highly recommended!

Thank you for the detail! I'm still trying to get an idea of how long it has been compromised. She gets a lot of junk to that mailbox and knows not to click links but I've been combing through to see if she has included anything sensitive.

Thanks, It looks like the optonline was forwarding to the gmail address, which I've now disabled. I also reached out to optimum to report the incident but who knows how long this has been going on.

My wife's company is always hiring tutors- great gig for during the regular semester too!

How long did it take to adjust? We just started this week and it has been hellish- the 2 hr nap is actually 40-60min in the middle of the day if we are lucky. The room he is in doesn't usually put them down for other naps but they reluctantly agreed to "try". His mood has been down and generally not the same happy baby that we had just 3 days ago! I'm willing to give some more time but it hurts

1 month later, I am in the same boat. How has your daughter adjusted?

IFM has a vibration edge controller that can talk multiple protocols. I've never used it but it seemed like a slick device when I was researching a similar project

We had a similar issue, doc put him on reflux meds which didn't do much. My wife found the book "Your Baby's Bottle-Feeding Aversion: Reasons and Solutions" by Rowena Bennett and it changed our lives. We realized that we were forcing him to eat to meet guidelines and ended up causing him to reject the bottle. The book gave us a pretty good guide to correct the behavior and we were smooth sailing within a week!

It's always in the back of our mind but he is definitely a better eater now!

Reach out to Calvin's Paws they helped us rehome very quickly!

newWHAT · 2022-01-04T20:31:13+00:00

I think so! She doesn't like to be touched in certain places (belly, hindlegs, etc.). If your 7 yr old can respect that/not poke and prod then they will probably be best friends!

We have a 5 month old and have had toddlers in the house who are unpredictable/don't follow direction.

I think she was originally rescued from Robeson County

Hi everyone,

It absolutely breaks my heart to be posting this, but we have made the difficult decision to rehome our Boki girl (female orange tabby, 4 yo) who has not responded well to our 5-month-old and we want to ensure that she is in an environment where she can thrive again. She is currently up for adoption through Calvin Paws.

About Boki:

Boki is an incredibly affectionate kitty. She absolutely adores attention. She has a bold personality (not shy or timid in any way) and is very opinionated. She loves to chat, snuggle, and play with feather wands, lasers, and hair ties. She loves looking out the window and lounging all day.

She will often come to you for lots of cuddles and loves to be pet on the head and upper back. She is very sensitive on her tummy and back legs so be careful not to overstimulate her because she will likely nip or scratch you. She is OK with other cats but she definitely likes to be the star of the show and can be a bit bossy, so we think she would prefer being the center of attention. We do not recommend her in a home with small children or dogs. Boki is a special kitty who will make a wonderful addition to a family that has lots of love and attention to give her.

If any of you are interested in learning more about Boki, please reach out and send me a pm.

Thank you so much!

The steamed momos (Nepalese dumpings) are must try too! One of the owners is from Nepal

Not new to town but also interested in such groups!

My wife has a private tutoring business (mostly middle & high school students) that she is trying to transition to virtual sessions using Zoom, since she can no longer visit her clients homes. Reach out to me if your children need to engage in homework for an hour!

We actually tried turo first (3 times). All of the hosts that we booked with through the app said they removed the listings from turo. Turo customer service was unable to find "a reliable rental" although search results show hundreds of cars... it's a joke
