My house spiders (and centipedes) have an agreement. They stay in the basement, and I leave them alone. They come upstairs, and they are fair game for the cat.

I did that last month. Waited forever. Just to find out they hadn’t actually locked the cabinet. Had I known, I’d have grabbed my things myself.

Do a test piece first. (I’ve heard “mod podge” can be used to seal things before resin? I’ve never tried)

I was comfortable (mostly) until 730 when I had to leave the hospital (aka “work”). Now sitting on my porch because our 140+yr old house only has two window AC units. I’d pick up a shift tomorrow (just for the AC) if I didn’t have so many errands.

I recently saw an ad for a cruise ship that had “adventure courses” including walking on a narrow platform around the ship/over water where every here and there the platform would intentionally collapse under you. NOPE not for me.

hey minneapolis: be on the lookout for a white guy driving a blue SUV with a bunch of free palestine stickers and Illinois plates. He was driving like a jackass and nearly hit me, so I flipped him off, and he proceeded to follow me to my next stop and blocked me in the parking spot.

One of my patients started shouting and cheering. Not something you often get in the ICU. She’s been watching the news. That’s how I found out.
