How did you get used to the mask?

In the old days, that's how we felt with a full tank of gas and a twenty.

We have 6 - our 3, plus the 3 we took in when my mom got sick. One of her dogs pooped in his crate (i think i fed him dinner too late) so he's slept in our bed the last two nights while everything gets cleaned. He a cute, expressive little shit rat who tries to weasle under the covers, which is both funny and annoying. He'll be sad to go back to his crate tonight. Blind Schipperke continues to be blind, but happy. Bossy Chihuahua continues to be bossy, but happy. The 3 cats continue to howl and hiss at each other, but less swatting this week, so that's good. It's been funny to see the rotation of cats who jump onto the bed, see the dog, look at us like WTF, and then try to decide what to do.

Like weekends!

At 9 o'clock, or whenever they think it's 9 o'clock, they start staring at me. Weirdly unsettling.

Will that meeting be in person? When and where is it being held?

Try to think of it as making fun of government waste in general, not your dad specifically. People in very visible positions, any type of celebrity or participants in a notoriously corrupt industry, have to have thick skin. If he we're a journalist, you would still complain about media bias, if he were an athlete you would still complain about the price of tickets, ... With politics, it just happens to be the most visible, most corrupt industry.

Now I'm super jealous and want to check all the boxes on every form.

Mine drove me crazy for the first few years. Now i notice it a lot less. Sometimes if i put that ear on my pillow the wooshing drowns out the screeching.

They won't spend a nickel on education unless they pass his stupid voucher bill. We're drowning and he's holding 20 billion life preservers.

I'm missing the drop notices and reviews from r/, but not enough to go back.

 

I know people will say anyone, but realistically, if you could hand pick our next President, who would you choose? Who do you think could win?

I popped into r/ today to read about furniture and now I'm feeling kinda dirty. Maybe i should donate to lemmy as penance.

I got a good deal on some pecan and i was planning to use it to build patio furniture. I don't know much about pecan and I'm having trouble finding much info about it. Is this a good wood for outdoor use or should i find an indoor project for it?

 

Cleaning out my mom's house. I hate to trash things that may be useful to someone else and some of it's probably worth some $$. I've used Facebook marketplace a couple of times. I've heard of OfferUp and LetGo but haven't used them. Where will i get the best response and $? Should i just pile it all up and do an online estate sale instead? TIA. Also, if anyone has done this and has any general tips, please share.

 

My 10 year old pup is going blind. We've been in the same house for most of her life and she's doing ok, but I'm worried it's going to get more difficult for her. She's not the smartest, but she can sit, lie down, and shake on command. I've read several articles about scent training but would like to get tips from someone who has done it. I'm thinking of using 4 different scents for bed, toys, stairs, and food/water - i know she can smell the food, but i want to make sure she can find the water bowl when she's outside. Is that too many?

One article recommended marking a path on the floor/ground so she knows where there's a clear route. Another suggested marking furniture/obstacles so she knows where to avoid.

If you have any experience with this and can offer tips, i would appreciate it. Also, if you want to share any happy stories about your VI pets, i would love to hear them. It's heartbreaking to see her misjudge the doorway or bonk into things.

Have you ever been asked to participate in a political poll? Do you know of anyone who has?

Edit to clarify that by 'snuggle' i meant all pets, scritches, belly rube, squeezes, ass pats, questions about who's the goodest, nicknaming, etc.
