i really don't want to sell it. haven't road it in like 4 years. it's a 2004 and only has 8k miles on it. can't really justify keeping it. come on down and mow my fuckin yard and we'll talk. you can stay in ernie's apartment.
sec [Reply]
I've 100% teleworked for years now so that part hasn't changed, but not being able to dive, play hockey, swim, or meet with friends, blows...
On the bright side I've rebuilt my son's and my scuba regulators, been able to fix both the chain saw and leaf blower, I've sharpened the mower's blades to something right out of Kill Bill, and all the hockey gear has all of last year's funk "warshed" out... [Reply]

Things keep getting better....
Nice!
I was at a dive bar in New Mexico a couple years ago and bought two $20 tickets and lost on both. Said there's gotta be a winner in there for $20 a pop and won $300 on the third ticket.
That was pretty much my experience with scratch offs. [Reply]

Trying to deal with the at home schooling that started this week. Taking care of four grandkids and trying to keep then in line with what needs to be done is only made worse by the number of notifications, messages, and emails I'm getting from teachers, their school, and the district.
I have four grandkids, at three different grade levels, going to three different schools with a combined total of 16 teachers. The past two days I got 27 different emails alone. Add to that the software they use for the kids lessons and parents access is not worth a damn from my point of view. It is NOT what I would call user friendly. Looks to me like something from 15-20 years ago.
Somethings gotta give before too long or I'm just going to start giving them lessons in fishing and football and call it good. [Reply]
Been seeing on yahoo etc that a lot of parents aren’t happy with trying to juggle all this stuff the schools are throwing at them, and basically revolting by saying to hell with it [Reply]

And people are wondering why some parents are saying "fuck it, go outside". [Reply]

I feel for you brother.
You're a good dude for even trying to do this. [Reply]
