People like you and care about you here, Austin.
We're a family so can't help chucking opinions in when something's posted.
Linda's trying to be helpful and concerned.

I just stumbled in. shirt wrinkled and needing a shave.......
I took my back pill yesterday with a beer.
Woke up at 10 am.
It's a work day.

 

[ZEROPILOT]

Thank goodness she's eating something though!
Well done Tidgy!

The same offer of free tortoise food from America stands for you as well!

I cried last night
I never cry!
My husband gave me hug and the waterworks started.
I have been feeling very stressed out watching my 17mo old grandson.
He is fighting his naps and I spend 2-3 hours trying and I'm way behind on my house chores plus all my kids activities. It been happening for like 2 weeks. He falls asleep on me in 2 minutes but wakes as I lay him down
Yesterday I drove him around town for 45 minutes and he stayed awake!


So I had a couple of drinks and went to bed early.

I felt much better today.

Thanks for listening/reading

I find that a good cry can be very helpful. Not that I ever do.
I'm so sorry that someone that brings so much cheer to us all here is upset about anything at all.

Evening sir

Howdy, Craig. Old buddy and godfather of my never hatching eggs.

 

[ZEROPILOT]

woohoo!!! off tomorrow

Well deserved

 

[Tidgy's Dad]

I hadn't, but we don't treat it as anything but a nuisance. Everything is pink and costs 5 times the price which makes a birthday that day as bad as Christmas... which is when you need to book a table if you want to go out

We're going out on the Friday before!

Don't blame you.
I remember all that nonsense.
Here it's not taken very seriously, though some do it for fun, but wifey and I will do something romantic 'in house'.
Your birthday's on Valentine's Day, then ?

 

[Tidgy's Dad]

I just love jumping spiders. My favorite kind to watch.

I like wool spiders, but they're very rare, if they actually exist at all.
So i can't watch them, often.
Good morning, Yvonne.

I know and I love all your opinions.
Linda's too!! Even if I don't like some of your opinions, I'll still welcome them and just think about others views. This is just to get a full understand meant and to see what I finally agree on and like best. Thanks you all.

 

[ZEROPILOT]

Wish someone would make me coffee every morning!!!
One less thing I have to worry about!
It takes literally a hour to feed all my animals in the morning.

It's one step I can leave out.
Shower, shave and brush teeth in the shower.
Feed and play with the dog.
Grab a Diet Mountain Dew and leave for work.
I feed my fish and the tortoises after work.

Just for today and then if I do it again I'll get detention. The whole American education system is outdated and also Administration will always protect the teachers and staff, even if their lying or not telling the whole thing. Just life I suppose.

I've been in the school system here and it seems to go: Nutty teachers 75% and truly crazy students 25%.
But that has been my perspective, only.
I fear the wrath of any crazy educators that may be in this very room. (Whom I love dearly)

 

[Tidgy's Dad]

Me too. I have challenged schools on this a few times.

I overstayed my visa in the early days here, and the punishment for not leaving the country was not being allowed to leave the country.
Which as I didn't want to leave at the time was fine by me.
All sorted now, of course.
Bizarre world we live in.

 

[Killerrookie]

I guess some of the bird seeds and lentil seeds fell out of the dish and been growing in the moss I have by the water bowl in the Uromastyx cage

It is indeed

What you think and what you know will both change more than you suspect as you get older and live your life. I'd say that you are still ahead of the game, because you seem to understand that.

Just for today and then if I do it again I'll get detention. ...

What in the world is detention? :/ If it's what I think, then I had a couple of third-graders who needed that!

Well, I won't comment on education systems anywhere, it makes me most annoyed, but , yup, you're quite right.
Life's like that, we just have to do our best and get on with it.
Hey ho, it's mostly good though.
I love life.

 

[Kristoff]

It is indeed

At least one good thing to look forward to on the Valentine's. I've been hating all the hype surrounding the day ever since I was a single undergrad

Look at this pretty little spider!
My friend took this macro pic while the spider was on the side of her flip flop shoe.
Can you guess what he is!

I love seeing spiders. In photos.

Kudos to your friend for such a quality shot!
