Anish Asokan Sounds like you had a busy but definitely productive Tuesday! Getting a new dishwasher is always exciting—it makes life so much easier. The new models are pretty good with technology and new features. A dryer could be a great addition next, especially if...

At what time does afternoon become night?

Judy Evans @JudyEv (352924) • Rockingham, Australia 18 Mar

The photo shows the clock that is in the bedroom at our house-sit. The figures are large and it’s easily read at night and without my glasses. As you can see, it gives the day, date and year as well as the time. You might also...

Anish Asokan Looks like a very practical and convenient clock to have in the bedroom! It is nice to have the large numbers -making it easy to read, especially at night or as soon as we wake up. The added details like the day, date, and even the time-of-day labels make it...

Anish Asokan Sounds like you had a busy but productive day with your dermatologist. It must have been reassuring to see a doctor you trust after all these years. I too had that experience a few times. It’s great that she took the time to check everything thoroughly....

How much are you willing to pay for a pillow?

Amber @AmbiePam (98011) • United States 18 Mar

I noticed my pillow needed replacing. It looks like the material has gotten snagged on something, and it has rips. Since I got it for free to review, I thought okay, I’ll just look it up, and buy another of the same kind. After...

Anish Asokan I can relate to that. It is frustrating when you find a perfect pillow, then you see the price tag and realize it is way too expensive. Comfort is important, but $50 for a single pillow does seem like a lot. When I did my search, I got one here at around $18,...

Anish Asokan It is heartwarming that the officers responded with kindness instead of treating it as a serious issue. There are few instances which had turned hilarious as well. I often wondered how toddlers are able to randomly dial the 911. Rather than reprimanding the...

Anish Asokan Jackfruit seeds are definitely a versatile and nutritious ingredient! Boiling or roasting them brings out their rich, nutty flavor. Cooking them with raw jackfruit sounds like a great way to enhance the dish. Adding them to vegetable dishes and curries must...

Anish Asokan That is definitely a productive day! It’s always feels great to get housework done, even with a busy schedule. Getting the laundry in before leaving was a smart move. Perhaps multitasking at its best. Hopefully, George’s fuzzy pants make it into Thursday’s...

A place to sit quietly

Judy Evans @JudyEv (352924) • Rockingham, Australia 17 Mar

The photo is of the deck that the owners of this house have had constructed. It’s a lovely place to sit and look out over the valley. If you sit quietly, you see lots of birds on the lawn and in the trees. The quendas also come...

Anish Asokan The deck sounds like a perfect spot to relax and enjoy nature. Watching birds and quendas must make it even more special. I can imagine how peaceful it feels just sitting there, and enjoying the nature. It is tough at times to get these little joys, especially...

I shouldn't check my email before sleep. Do you have the same policy?

Anish Asokan I totally get why you’re feeling uneasy about it. Unexpected mails, especially at odd hours, can be stressful. Perhaps the clinic’s system sends emails automatically, but it still feels intrusive. If it’s weighing on your mind, opening it sooner might help...

What would you do if the Retirement age was raised to 69?

Rachael Alice @lifecoachjerusalem (1338) • Israel 17 Mar

For years and years, the retirement age in America was 65, we all counted on it. Then it was raised to 67, were there protests? I didn't hear a thing. Now it has been bandied about that the Rebubs want to raise the retirement...

Anish Asokan That would definitely spark debates. Most people struggle to work until 67, so 69 could feel like an unfair burden. We should rather work on securing finances than relying on social security. It would people to explore passive income or side businesses....

Anish Asokan Sounds like a solid plan! Sugarcane and passion fruit could be great choices for a juice business. You may need to analyse the market there for these ones. In my area, the planting season depends on the region, but many farmers prepare for crops during the...

TIPS

Jim Bauer @porwest (99773) • United States 12 Mar

I am not sure if it is actually true, or if someone just made it up, but the concept behind it, true or not, still makes perfect sense when it comes to offering someone a tip. Supposedly the word "tip" or "tips" is an acronym...

Anish Asokan The idea that "tip" stands for "To Ensure Promptness and Service" is interesting, but it does seem more like a backronym than the actual origin of the word. I do agree with you that "ensure" would be the correct word in that context, which makes the...
