My son is a mechanic and he likes it. Doesn’t make a million dollars, but he gets by ok. There’s a lot of turnover in the industry - shops get sold to corporate chains and then they screw everyone over. There are plenty of jobs available, so when that happens he’s usually able to find something else within a few days. He started by getting a state inspector license from a 2 day class. Everything that has been from books, videos, and on the job learning.

Turn your radio or TV up. They will get the message that if they can hear you you can hear them.

We ordered it from Costco. They have a great return policy and will pick up things they delivered if you want to return them. Plan was to buy a mid price memory foam mattress and then, if needed, keep exchanging it for the next one up until we hit our budget limit. The first one was perfect! It’s been 9 years. I don’t know how long beds are supposed to last. We rotate it periodically and it’s still crazy comfortable.

Most days my husband. Some days my kids. Some moments my job. Every night i love how comfortable my bed is.

I work in schools. The smell of a high school hallway is so repulsive. I don’t even understand how they date each other.

Movies or theater, where the temperature fluctuates and it sometimes gets chilly, then you can wear it if it’s cool outside afterwards and it’s not as bulky as sitting on your coat in a theater chair.

I usually do an everclear wash, evaporate, decarb, and then just stir in a little coconut oil to make it easier to measure.

Are you in the US? It’s legal to buy online in all but a few states. Check out wnc-cbd.com for flower.

It’s a journey and you don’t have to fit into anyone else’s box. Anyone with a firm, unwavering belief has really just given up exploring.

It lasts so long that it’s almost a problem. I had a monthly one ounce subscription that i never got through so i have about a pound of that sitting in jars. Plus many many others that i was excited to try but couldn’t finish before finding the next exciting thing.

What do you like to make? The best edibles I’ve made were sour candy mouth sprays. Delicious, fun, hits quicker. The worst was an attempt at butter mints. Weirdest was peanut butter cups that accidentally got a sprinkle of cayenne.

Cbg is great for migraines. I work with kids with disabilities (lots of lifting and moving) so i feel safer using cbg instead of prescription meds (that make me spacey/clumsy) when I’m at work.

I use that alien, spaceship heater.

I started with a pax2. Now i use a dynavap with an induction heater. I like it more then i expected to. Also have a bunch of disposables (secretnature.com) lying around for lazy times, concerts, etc.

Try a cbn edible or oil.

I confused Steve Reich with Steven Raichlan (https://a.co/d/2WxRrOQ) while reading this. The idea of Chopin and BBQ blew my mind.

We go pretty frequently (about every other month), but less since covid and now mostly nationally touring bands. My husband often buys a T-shirt. We also like to go see live music when we’re on vacation. My son toured with a band for a couple of years. I know it’s hard when they’re not making much money- sleeping in the van (or worse) and eating what the venue will give them. How about you?

One spoon of pickle juice. Do not eat a pickle.

How/why does an adult man date a child? There’s really only one answer to that.

The good - Helped my son move, which sucks because i have a bad shoulder from a bike accident recently, but there were 5 of us (family) so i was able to stick to lighter items. Was nice to spend time together and support him. He’s been with us for the last 3 months and i know he’s ready to get back into his own space. Exhausted and sore, but feeling good for him. Also, have some restaurant gift cards, so I’m hoping for a cheap date tomorrow.

The bad - i have a cat that will not use a litter box and cleaning the floor beside/under the box every fucking day is making me crazy! Also, have a bunch of work to get done before Monday because I’ve been slacking.
