Son turned 13! I have TWO teenagers and all three minions are in double-digits after youngest turned 10 last week.

 :facepalm:


  Now they're old enough to be a help :sweep: around the house and yard!   :multitask:


   
   The oldest can guard the house against unwanted visitors!  :odeon:


You crack me up. Only the youngest will do anything. The oldest just sits in her room on her iPod Touch all day or sleeps. Next year she will have to take care of herself in college, but somehow I am guessing she will dupe her roomate(s) into taking care of her. She has no life skills.
Crazy, I'm halfway to crazy
Suicide would waste me
Homicide would break me
Tongue tied and tied to the tongue
Tongue tied and tied to the tongue
Oh, is life as bad as dreams
I guess that's just the way it seems

Lol trigger, just buy them each a shotgun/carve them a pointy stick. Anyone can do the job with the former.

What kind of Yoga do you practice?

It's a mix, between Ashtanga and restorative and one other type that I can never get the name right.  I have at least three different teachers at the studio that I go to and their styles are all unique.  Which I kind of like, since certain other teachers are all "clones" of their trainer who happens to be the owner.   And as a friend said, she also teaches yoga and works with the body chakra's....the owner doesn't "do a thing for me".  His style is quite repetitive and never varies in his classes.  I like a mix of styles and after my hernia surgery, my body responds to certain styles like restorative, than others.  That's probably more info than you needed, but, I hope it explains well.

It does, thanks.

I'm told I should try Yoga Nidra to bring down my stress levels.

Finished my first oil change.

I actually started it yesterday but I came to removing the oil filter and found it was in there extremely tight. Naturally this stumbling block didn't present itself till late afternoon when the auto parts stores were closed, so I had to wait until this morning to buy a proper oil filter socket wrench attachment.
Silly me for presuming the dealer wouldn't have near soldered the damn thing in there.

  You're going to become a car expert, one tiny mishap at a time!   :fixin:

Father's Day in Australia. My daughter made me my first play list. (I keep thinking of more songs LOL) and I have just come back from a nice meal at an Indian Restaurant with her.
I2 today is not i2 of yesteryear. It is a knitting circle. Those that participate be they nice or asshats know their place and the price to be there. Odeon is the overlord

.Benevolent if you toe the line.

Think it is I2 of old? Even Odeon is not so delusional as to think otherwise. He may on occasionally pretend otherwise but his base is that knitting circle.

Censoring/banning/restricting/moderating myself, Calanadale & Scrapheap were all not his finest moments.
