Adventures in the hinterland! When we lived in Washington and took the girls hiking we'd give them whistles to use if they got lost and encouraged them to make lots of noise. We didn't want to surprise any critters.

Today I had a doctor's appointment in Albuquerque after I went to Costco.

HippieChick58 comments on Oct 11, 2023:

That's quite cheeky of her. I am pretty sure Costco will terminate her membership and not allow her back in. Makes you wonder why she thought she would get away with it.

I remember learning these terms when I was very young, I am not sure why I ever learned them considering I grew up in the very landlocked middle of the USA, we don't even have a navigable river. And then Ursula from Disney's Little Mermaid had her pets with those names.

How do I block someone?

HippieChick58 comments on Oct 8, 2023:

You can also go to your settings on your profile. There is a tab for blocked profiles. You can add that person there, and see who else you have blocked. If/when they are no longer with Ag.com their profile will no longer be there. So if you have blocked someone and are wondering if they are still on Ag.com you can check there. I have about a dozen people blocked, I do it for my peace of mind.

My answer was no one has complained, but I've only slept with cats and small children in my bedroom. The cats don't care, and the small fry (grandchildren) didn't comment if I did.

I got to get publicly cranky at work on Thursday and I thought it was great fun!!! My manager is retiring, and company bigwigs from Virginia were massed in front of her office as they gathered to go to her farewell luncheon. Well, my desk is the first one outside of her office, and I field phone calls all day. My caller said they could not hear me over the chatter, so I put the caller on hold and and turned to the crowd, got their attention, and told them to pipe down. And I didn't say it that nicely, I channeled my inner drill sergeant/mom. I did explain I my caller was not able to hear me, and they sheepishly trotted off to the break room. My manager came by later and apologized for them. Some of the clothing in that crowd cost more than my monthly paycheck if I am any judge of fashion. Let's hear it for the underdog.
