Marie Coyle @MarieCoyle (46636) 4 Jul

People around here drive to Indiana (not far) and buy illegal fireworks, and drag them back here. We've had booms every night for at least two weeks, often until 2 or 3 in the morning. The last two days have been beyond terrible....

laser_vision @MarieCoyle Not to mention the people who have autism and other sensory sensitivities. Leave the fireworks to the government. I think they are banned here for private citizens because people throw them in the ocean which is kind of the worst, it has a...

Today I go to the new dentist to see what's going on with this root canal tooth. I am praying she doesn't have to pull it since it's in the front. I would have to get an implant which takes about 6 months. I am hoping she can...

laser_vision @LindaOHio The Tassos olives are green. I like green ones better than black ones.

He’s a treasure. The two of us raided Sprouts and Jimbos for food, then spent our day at a coffee shop. We watched a movie together on my laptop, then we did work on our own projects on own computers for a few hours. It was nice...

laser_vision @LindaOHio When I was really struggling, about 1/2 cup daily, or eat 4 olives, about once daily. These days I just go for it on an as-needed basis. I can tell when my brain is starting to feel foggy because everything in there slows down.

laser_vision @LindaOHio I got it from an episode of Diary of a CEO. He interviewed a longevity expert. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=Htg3HCgrJK4&pp=0gcJCcEJAYcqIYzv The interviewee in the video gets all in there about how his olive juice and oil is the best, but it’s...

Today, I felt compassion most strongly—especially for caregivers. I was one during the early lockdown days of COVID. I was doing so as a legally blind woman with dead knees. I HAD NO RESPITE! And, I was taking care of my mother...

Or at least, trying to get accurate sources of data on that. I'm going to reccommend Kristina Smallhorn for good land buying advice, and stay off of Zillow - go to Realtor.com and the MLS instead. I'm concerned that the Acres...

laser_vision Lol, I was not expecting this response. How did it go? I presume that, due to lack of utility and zoning and easement concerns, it is easier to buy land for the dead than for the living.

laser_vision @LindaOHio Basically I get Tasso's green olives from Costco and drink the leftover juice when I'm done eating all of the olives. However, there are other forms of olive juice people drink - it's for longevity and performance since it repairs sugar damage done...

laser_vision @allknowing It's okay, you can. It's just a hard thing to understand and give advice to, I don't want to have to endure and correct bad advice that doesn't help again (which is frustrating), nor make everyone feel terrible for not being able to...

laser_vision @snowy22315 The right tool is a large flathead screw driver to pull the pin up and out of the hinge. Before you resort to that, I would try some turpentine in the hinge where the pin is, and also try some WD-40 to lubricate it. It’s possible that some paint...

laser_vision @Ineeddentures I generally feel more relaxed once I'm on my chosen train and its moving. I find motion, whether trains, planes, bikes, or cars, to be soothing to the nerves. Walking is okay as a relaxer, but all that goes out the window when I'm trying to...

laser_vision @Traceyjayne I actually don't have a time of it unless I am going to a seafood or fish restaurant. I permanently avoid those. My boyfriend has a gluten allergy, so it's a minefield and a half trying to find something he can eat, though. Our favorite place to...

laser_vision @TheHorse The fact that you can wear your underwear inside out is an achievement of itself. Unfortunately, female human beings do not have that luxury, for numerous biological reasons. Underwear for us is definitely a one-use-one-wash thing, and properly...
