Sounds like a classic "Catch 22." Sounds like it would be best for you to stay in a hotel longer than just one night.

Be careful! If you drink too much water you can mess up your electrolyte balance (aka: water toxicity) and that can mess with your heart rhythms! Here's a link to a pretty good article: https://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/318619#dangers

The English language can be so much fun (sometimes)! If you have any examples, post them here. I'll start. This "brain teaser" meme is a grammar lesson, a spelling lesson, and a science lesson all in one!!! I'll bet it tastes good too!

@Jeepers

Can you think of anything else Duck Tape cannot repair or replace?

Do you have an "emergency" walk-in clinic he can go to? (Not the hospital emergency room)

I thought I remembered being able to do it differently. I also thought that "upload" meant make the pics available to "insert" into the post where you wanted them to go, not that uploading would put all of them - including the ones you didn't insert - into the post as random placements. Guess I was wrong.

More word play.

The candy canes are attached to the wire frame with bread ties, and the Christmas trees have a garden "staple" pushed through the base into the dirt. Surprisingly they all made it through the gusty wind storm we just had! (items are from the Dollar Tree) The Nutcrackers are from the 99c Only store. The "winter scene" is a plastic "drop cloth" that I picked up several years ago - can't remember from where though. It is taped to a layer of cardboard that usually separates stacked TP in Costco. I think the checkers at the exit door thought I was nuts!

I am using a desktop, running Win10. This is what I am talking about. I uploaded 5 pics, but only "inserted" 2 of them. The remaining 3 are in the post anyway. WHY??? Hope you can figure it out.

@Annarchy Why do all of the pictures I upload wind up in the post and not just the ones I insert? I had a very hard time (multiple edits) getting my post with Christmas pics in it to show ONLY the ones I wanted. I had to go back to the post several times and delete the ones that I did NOT insert, BUT......................... each time after I saved the changes there they were again! I finally had to go back in and delete the pics I didn't use - and some of them were very similar so I wound up deleting the ones I wanted to keep and had to upoad them again. I finally got it figured out about which ones I actually wanted, but it was extremely annoying!

Look who I ran into doing some last minute Christmas shopping! (I know I should have posted it before Christmas, but life................................) And here is my front window. Me and Pashi by the town's Christmas tree.

Another Christmas video to share with your family and friends. 1001 DRONES light show/story:

She showed the process in another video. It took her one WEEK to get it set up! But she loves to do these and share the results. Also, she produces and markets the "dominoes" used in her video projects. She has been quite successful in this venture. There is a video where she explains all of this. If you are interested I will find it and post it here for you.

Here's another wonderful (but short) holiday video to share with the littles. Falling dominoes create a Christmas scene with Rudolph in the center! RUDOLPH in Dominoes! (Christmas E-Card)

For my friends and family that have children, grandchildren, or great grandchildre, Or who is still a "child" themselves! I think you will thoroughly enjoy this!!! A Visit from Saint Nicholas performed by The U.S. Army Band

My Safeway had the shank half on sale for 99c/lb - not spiral sliced like yours. Also, like yours, there was a limit of 2. Since that was a "member" price (aka, "loyalty" card) the cash register-computer keeps track and you can't get more than allowed. UNLESS, you are in the store and they don't have any in stock so you get a "Rain Check," but then you go back the next day - after they've restocked - and get your "limit." When you present the "Rain Check" - best done after the sale is over - you can still get your "limit" as written on it.

Remember this...................

Hope you both have wonderful b-days spent with friends and family.

I found this: I also picked up some additionL info while searching........................... ~Generally, you need 1 vanilla bean/2oz of liquor. (that's a "Grade A" bean) Most of the recipes I checked out used Madagascar beans. ~To be more precise, the FDA says that for extract to be “Pure” you need 13.35oz of vanilla beans in every gallon of spirit. Using the FDA’s math, you need roughly .83oz of vanilla beans in every 8oz (1 cup) of spirits. If you purchased your vanilla beans by the ounce, then the simple, rounded column makes it easy to figure out how many beans to add to your spirits. It's easy to remember that 8oz of spirits is a cup, so use 1oz of vanilla beans in 1 cup of spirits. That method is easy to remember and will never let you down! However, the nice thing about making your own vanilla extract is that you can add more or less beans as you'd like. https://www.vanillapura.com/pages/how-many-beans-in-vanilla-extract ~You need to use at least 70 to 80 proof liquor. ~If you are using a clear bottle or jar, you need to put your brew into a dark corner for the duration. (I might try and make some myself, but I will be using green jars that had olive oil in them.) ~There also seems to be some conflicted advice as to whether or not you should split the beans or keep them whole. Mary's Nest (YT) and Ina Garten use their beans whole. However, even though most of those people put the beans in whole, several others crosscut them into pieces (not split) - especially if they were using a mason jar vs a tall jar.

I just wanted to compliment you on the correct usage of the verb tense in this sentence!!! Sooooooooooooooooooo many people would have said, "would of."

Now I finally know what you were talking about in your other post! If I ate cereal I would probably have gone back a few times also.

Hello there Deb. Wishing it was a good day for you and whoever you spent it with.

I am surprised o hear that she (the Amish lady) doesn't allow her hens to forage for bugs! Or does she???
