Follow-up: I texted the plumber again this morning to let him know we still haven’t seen a bill, either in the mail or email. He said “Check your spam - for some reason a lot of our emails end up there.” Sure enough, that’s where it had landed. Printed the invoice, wrote a check, dropped it in the mail.
My friend still has to muzzle her pup at 8 years old for the same reason. That girl will eat anything and everything. She is a very sweet dog.
She sure as hell acts like it often. She likes to bat things around with her front paws and perches on the back of the couch most of the time.
The only difference between a cat’s litter box and a dog’s snack box is whether you can block the dog’s access.
And those poor innocent souls that deny their dog is snaffling up cat shit when it’s snorfling through the leaves on their walk just crack me up.
Is there something wrong with me that I am subconsciously attracted to guys who don’t treat me well?
It starts out okay, but then the real person comes through.
Yes, it wasn’t a great idea to find someone at a dinner for the public. But this one has an apt. Hes had a couple accidents in the past few years, went through therapy. I thought he’d be on disability.
It gave me pause when I found out his mom has been paying his rent since the accidents. He can walk and get around, could probably do part time work.
His apt. Was a mess. Still is, but its been straightened up a bit, he saves things that don’t need to be saved.
I get coffee sometimes. He expects half, even though I’d paid for it.
Bickering. Its like hes angry at the world and needs to take it out on me. I dont argue, Im easy to get along with.
His way is the right way only.
This is a possibility. I suggest talking to a therapist to find out. I also suggest holding on to a scorched earth policy when it comes to men until you figure out what you really want from them and if having a partner is worth the price you are paying. Mind you, this advice is worth only what you paid for it as IANAP. But I think we all need to learn to live with ourselves before we can successfully have a partner. That’s based on my own experience.
Is it that you are attracted to them? Or are there just so few age-appropriate guys who show interest? It’s my understanding that for women over 60, the selection of male partners who want to be in a relationship is pretty slim, unless you have $$$.
Ugh, that sounds awful and time to leave. If Hubster shuffles off the mortal coil before me, I will be a happily single little old lady.
My kids had a neighbor who was a 101 year old WWll Vet. My best friends mom was turning 100. My grandkids thought they should get together as a couple. My friend’s mom said, “Oh no. You go on one date and next thing you know they’re dropping their laundry off on your front step.” 
I don’t think she was wrong.
I had a beagle who was as sweet as could be. We went to a park with a pond recently visited by a huge flock of geese. She thought was the best thing EVER! She rolled around enthusiastically before I could get her away from it. I had to drive home with the windows down, holding onto her collar and both of us sticking our heads out the window. she got a bath as soon as we got home.
I female over 60, recently had a taxi driver going on and on about me going on a trip alone and whY I dont have a man. I finally told him, most men my age, there is a reason they are available, and I want no part of it. He shut up after that.
IMHO, you’re a kind-hearted person who’s vulnerable to the self-serving machinations of total jerks and assholes. This guy sounds like he’s had some tough breaks and is resentful and taking it out on the world. That’s his problem, but it definitely should not be yours. IMHO, based on minimal information.
I’m gonna’ keep that one in mind.
I got a little air fryer for Christmas and decided to try out the cornbread recipe in the instruction book. I was kind of excited for cornbread tonight, actually.
And it’s not working. The top is scorched. Everything under the top is raw. I’ve kind of mixed it up a few times to get the raw stuff cooked and see if I can salvage something edible, but… yeah, not a winner.
I’ve seen articles where some air fryers should be unplugged immediately after use to prevent fires. Maybe that’s been fixed, but…
As for my air fryer, I turn the support grill upside down to get it further away from the direct heat with dishes like that. I also, depending on the result, add several more minutes cooking time.
I try. I try and make things work. I dont argue, I like peace. They start off nice, then the 2 month mark happens.
I’m a big fan of air fryers but as I said in another thread, they’re a lot like microwaves in that they’re very good for the things that they’re good at, but they’re not good for everything. I’ve discovered enough things that they’re good at – french fries, chicken wings, sausage rolls, cheese sticks – that I’m very happy with the appliance. Also pretty good at reheating a slice or two of leftover pizza if you can fit it into the basket. But not good for many other things – cooking or reheating meats like chicken breasts or turkey is better done in the even heat of a regular oven.
Cheer up because I think you’ll come to appreciate the air fryer once you learn its strengths and limitations! 
I find that the air fryer lid for my Instant Pot does fine for reheating fried chicken.
So many times hes said, if you don’t like it, leave.
He had been with his ex for maybe 17 years, and hasn’t been with anyone in 9 years.
Seriously, I hope I’m not offending you, but he sounds like a douche. You deserve better.
Sometime over twenty years ago four Canada geese lighted on a pond in a local cemetery. There had always been a number of domestic geese and ducks there that were cared for. Kids liked to feed them. The arrival of the wild geese was a big deal, everyone was thrilled and there was a picture in the paper.
The Canada geese seemed to have invited friends, and most folks thought it was good that the population was reviving.
By now there are so many, and they don’t leave. It’s more likely someone will say “watch out, the goose poop is everywhere.”
