Brother helped me give the last dose to the kitties and they were not happy, but its done now. I had to try twice on Bethesda since she fought so hard and managed to get away. They've all forgiven me now. I emptied the dry cat food bag and will need to get the next one out of the truck. Storm...

Fippy is in Mom's room right now. He was being a douchewaffle to Rupert-- kept attacking him and the poor cat is sick. Yesterday i filled five 5 gallon buckets with water, got batteries, emergency kits, and all sorts of stuff to be ready for power outage. I fed Rupert canned food last night...

Those look so cool, CJ! Went to the doctor today for a checkup. Lost weight and my bp was good but sugar was too high-- 308. Need to bring that down. Doubling up on meds and stuff. Took the runt of the litter from friend's kittens to the vet to make sure he was OK. I could feel his spine and he...

Went to Walmart for groceries. Popped by friend's house with my brother to pick up the CRV. Played with kittens over there and visited him for a bit. Saw that friend's ex made it to the American Press news but they had the wrong mugshot for her boyfriend. The one they used for him was several...

I wish I knew how to fix up speakers and stuff. It seems neat. I'm tempted to take the magnets out of the Sony TV's built-in speakers on that 240lb monstrosity projection tv we'll be tossing out. Nobody has the space for those things anymore and newer tvs have much better picture. Fiend's ex's...

Yesterday I was researching sheds and enjoying AC while my friend was doing yardwork. His first ex's boyfriend (who is a really great guy) came over to his house to help trim some branches in a pecan tree. He took some video. Tree climber was giggling and having fun. He used an extension cord...

Mom woke me up at 4am to change her insulin cartridge. I'd pre-loaded ita few hours earlier since I knew her insulin was getting low. Made changing it out much faster. She found a better way to make changing out the tubing easier as well-- she just unbuttoned the nightgown over where the tube...

CJ, the TV project is so cool! I haven't even managed to finish cleaning up in the kitchen. Been tired and trying to relax. I did make it to Walmart today for some stuff. Friend is really stressed out with the drama and I think he's starting to realize that it's possible his ex *did* abuse...

I thought Daytime Running Lights were only a lower set of lights so you can see the vehicle but aren't full headlights. I could be mistaken. But there is a button or knob in most of the newer cars that let you set the lights to "Auto" so that the headlights will turn on when a sensor determines...

Never works. I always end up moving my hands/arms. LOL. So, friend got his shower doors installed. I already did some cleaning this morning and bonked myself in the head with the dustpan handle. It docks on to part of the pan to stay open and it undocked when I was dumping the contents into the...

I think the kind I was looking at that is tongue and groove needs 16" on center but I was thinking some sort of underlayment on top of it might be good. It can be staggered so it doesn't have the same seams and it can add reinforcement. Not sure if friend really cares about floor flexing. The...

We don't have homeowner's insurance. The insurance dropped us under false pretenses the only time they ever paid a claim (when a tree fell on our barn). They claimed the homeowner didn't live here, there was debris in the yard (from the tree falling on the barn) and there were holes in the...

I take it you're joking about a storage container needing batteries and a manual? But really, I know a lot of stuff doesn't. Now they are like "find the manual online" AC has been on the fritz still. Outside unit keeps shutting off completely. Even the fan stops. I keep having to reset it via...

Methed up or schizophrenia. Although, schizophrenic people are not as likely to be violent as shown on tv & movies, but they can suffer from paranoid delusions that lead them to self-harm. If they harm others or property it's usually in conjunction with some other form of mental illness...

I wonder if the arsonist was on drugs or drunk or something. But some people are just destructive. There was a local dude who burned two vacant houses and set up a remote detonation incendiary device to burn a tractor and a riding mower at a local business (it sold the tractors and riding...

The pivoting door is something I saw on one of the DIY or HGTV channels. Fancy. LOL. I have nothing to contribute to the conversation about bearings. What is the purpose of the red thingamajig on the drill? Is it to extend the reach like a decking drill/screwdriver or something? I had a...

I was just coming here to say I have clamp envy. LOL. CJ, the work you're doing looks amazing! I wish I was that skilled. Highup, $14k for extra carpet they don't need? Yeesh. Maybe they think they can sell some to the golf courses for repairs or something? I dunno. Either the customer has...

That looks very cool, CJ. Speaking of cool, what is NOT cool is my house right now. AC isn't working well. It got up to 76 and its not supposed to go over 70. Changed HVAC filter, bleach down condensate line, cap on condensate line secured, turned AC off for several minutes and back on again...

Cats decided it was royal rumble day. I went to put out food for them and saw that Yasuke was taking an aggressive stance with Senator Snugglebum. As I opened the pantry door, I used it to shove Yasuke away, but it backed his butt into Mewlatto's face. So Mew took the first swing and slapped...

I found that cutting back on some carbs, not eating as much, and trying to walk around a bit more has helped. I walk in place on the anti-fatigue mat in the kitchen. I can't be out in the heat or sunlight so going outside during summer to exercise is not happening. I miss when I was fit enough...
