I have no idea how you're managing to use four.

Maybe he built a fort.  :zoinks:

My remote pointer for presentations decided to not only stop working but to literally fall apart.

There's a local computer shop that should be able to sell me something like it. In fact, I'll probably take the opportunity to upgrade to something more modern. I've had this one for a few years now.

It's nice to have one when presenting, though, as it's possible to move around rather than staying by the laptop.

Our washer doesn't fit all the bedsheets in the house.
maybe just your sheets? mine would not fit - i have at least five sets unopened and at least four sets (your old ones included) in use.

I meant all the bedsheets currently being used, and I have no idea how you're managing to use four.  :P One on your bed, one on the couch, and then I'm lost.
they are in rotation.
though a gopher trap would be an interesting use. cleaning might be difficult if the straw/grass gets into the washer.

I saw three ospreys circling above my back yard and calling to each other

I spotted no less than five newly wed couples posing for pictures today.

Different places or same one?  There is a spot in my town it's by the duck ponds, with a little waterfall with a small foot bridge in front of it leading to a tiny island, some days they are lined up to get photos there

  They'll all be divorced within 10 years.  Dumbasses.   :wedding:  :trollface:

Different places. That's what was so interesting about it.

  The days are definitely getting shorter.  Winter will be here before we know it!  :snowman:

It's colder, too. Summer's not over yet, though.

It goes without saying that I will be going out to pick fresh ones for medicinal use, once prepared to remove the poison from them, but I at least, if on the odd chance I can find none, I still have many bags and tupperware containers full    of  fly agaric mushrooms. These help in small quantities, to inure against the discomfort caused by cold and freezing weather,
