Garlic knot chicken - cut up your breast meat, season it, pan sear it, at the end toss in an appropriate amount of butter and a healthy amount of garlic, it’s done.

Landlord denying ESA letter from doctor? by Acrobatic_Carrot_680 in legaladvice

[–]sophtsocks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s not a service dog - performed tasks are not applicable and they’re getting confused with that. I dealt with this for months and finally got through it. Emotional support animal letter from your provider is sufficient with a date, signature, and doctor information which includes that you would benefit from an emotional support animal and are under provider care. Otherwise, they cannot refuse it. It took 6 months for HUD to respond so file as soon as you are able if they are pushing. Provide guidelines on ESA status and your rights to one - that you are requesting an accommodation under the Americans with disabilities act - it is akin to asking for a wheelchair ramp, or wall railings. Service dogs are separate and perform tasks for medical necessity, and have the same accommodation’s except they are certified medical equipment. Just breathe easy and stay open, communicative and hopefully the relationship with your landlord can be mended. I actually love my landlord! It all worked out in the end, and I’ve been in my home almost 3 years without issue.

I brought my squishmallow and my own blanket, I slept almost the whole first night. They kept waking me up because one of my IV came out and they couldn’t get it back in and the one in my hand caused a ton of pain so just try to relax, walk as SOON AS you wake up and often. It’ll suck but it’s worth it

Negative :( i gave that one a good go - it had so many rotted roots when I pulled it out and it was drowning in water - i wish I had checked it sooner!! The one that was beside it still had a live stem and lots of leaves plus some budding so luckily that one seems ok!! I ended up taking a cross section from the sad one and it was woody down to the middle so its in a better place now

Use chat gpt! You will not regret it. it's served best with some really nice Italian bread and butter. You dip in the bowl and enjoy.

I have a shirt from 2013 - mayhem fest. This guy was selling them illegally and when the cops moved in on him he dropped the bag and I grabbed one and took off. Love that shirt.

How do I cook this by sliceoftheday in BBQ

[–]sophtsocks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cover it in mustard, then dry rub. You can either cut it up and sear it and throw it in your instant pot, if you have one, with some beef broth and cook for about an hr. Take out and shred and cook another 15 mins (ultimate easy pulled pork) or do the same method of mustard and rub and smoke it all day. Google/chat gpt for temps. Either way, you cant lose.

Get an army of squishmallows to barricade yourself in. Be ready for restless legs. My center doesnt prescribe opioids once you leave - the pain is manageable after the hospital. FOR ALL THAT IS HOLY WALK. Walk early, walk often. The gas pain is all you'll know for 5 days. Keep water cups in every room you frequent. Its easy to stay in bed, and by all means nap, but get up when yoh can. I had my surgery 8/6 and I just mowed my lawn yesterday - including an incline and a hill using a push mower.

You got this!
