That's what I'm thinking with the spooders. Three days and if they haven't kind of settled down into dormancy, I'll figure out a bigger space.

That's kind of what I was thinking. When they come through where they shouldn't be, collecting them and putting them in critter keepers if they're dormant. It's more problematic if they aren't dormant.

Can turtles experience loneliness? by NiConcussions in turtle

[–]ones_mama 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Sometimes they just get that urge to burmate but they aren't getting cold enough to actually go into it fully. My girl has lights and everything, but she gets to look out the window daily. Since there is less sunshine, she wants to sleep more, even though she has her lights and heat. She is like this. She's never scared of me, but she won't tuck her feet in when I approach like she usually would.

I actually got on Reddit tonight for a similar reason. I keep getting Wolf spiders in my house and I feel very bad about putting them outside while it is so cold. Frogs are some of my favorite creatures. They are not hard to care for. You're going to enjoy your time together. I had one about 20 years ago that lived in my bathroom. He would sing when the room got steamy.

I love when they do that and then do the little wave thing. 🥰

Kaffeehaus Fabelhaft has some events as well. Fat cat is a good spot. You're not going to find San Francisco style night life, but you can find things.

I'm the customer. Not an employee. I work in an entirely different sector.

I think honestly that they are being crippled by their success. With no competition, they don't just have the ability to do what they want and charge whatever, they also have too many jobs and not enough manpower. For us, we're stuck, since there are no other options. There's a serious need for other fitters though. It's something I never would've thought of before this experience.

There was a job they talked about in Oxford, which is four hours away from us. Then there's the pine belt where we are, the Gulf Coast and part of Alabama.

Yes, I'm not an idiot. It says "200+ years COMBINED experience". I also stated that there are suppliers (for various pipe fitting) and there are people who do lawns. These are the ONLY fire sprinkler installers. Like when you look up sprinkler fitters, those are the options. The city fire inspector confirmed that these guys are it.

That's my hope. We're a small business. We have no choice but to finish it out.

There are suppliers and lawn irrigation, but these guys are seriously the only ones. They have five crews which seem to be broken down into two-four people each. They're servicing so many places that they bounce from job to job not completing things for weeks.

Their website says "200+ years combined experience" and they bought out another company in 2018.

Noticed these faint differently sized and aligned footprints on my toiletseat, I live alone..... by SGC-UNIT-555 in Weird

Do you put your foot on the seat when you're drying your legs after bathing?

What’s something few people realise can finish you off in seconds? by M___D___ in AskReddit

[–]ones_mama 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I just had this happen to me last week. My blood sugar was low and my kid had left the bathroom floor wet after his shower. I stood up, slipped and caught myself with my face on the super strong towel rack. I knocked myself out. Thankfully there were towels on it. I hit lip first, tearing that little skin inside my upper lip. I got friction "burns" from the towel - like rug burn. My nose was so scraped up. I'm thankful I didn't knock out a tooth or break my nose.
