My parents have one of these, and it drives me nuts when I visit. I understand that feature on something like an oven where it’s still cooking. But the microwave stopped. Nothing’s going to burn. So stop rushing me!

• Camouflage (as in items of clothing with the pattern)
• Tall boots
• The color red
• When you open a plastic bag, such as for garbage (but if they’re left lying around he loves to sit on them) - this doesn’t apply to treat bags
• Tall men with deep voices - roughly 6’3” (1.9m) or taller

Great photos! I think cheeky sparrow Sundays should be a recurring thing

Does it usually come from the same number or numbers? If so, I’d block it/them and move on.

You tried your best to get them to at least contact her for updated information. Blocking the number(s) means you no longer see the confirmations and such. The only issue down the road would be you won’t get your own confirmations if you ever book with them and use that phone number.

please tell me Belligerent Botanist is the channel name

“It’s just 3 things, plus that other one that happens on the way to #2 anyway, no need to write a list”

I struggle with this as well. Sometimes I let myself go into what I call “if you give a mouse a cookie” mode and do the things as they pop into my mind instead of following the list. It’s nice to not have to spend energy trying to keep my brain on task.

But usually I try to stick to my list. Things get on the list because either there’s an imminent deadline or it’s been bothering me and taking up too much of my mental bandwidth.

I’m guessing they mean dextroamphetamine

I spent probably 10 seconds looking for the feline in the bottom left before the light bulb went off

I kept thinking “don’t do it, you’ll hit the ceiling” while she was planning, but she obviously knows her limits much better because she made it look easy

I always write myself a list of things to do in a day that’s so long I’d never get all of them done in a year. Yet the next time I make my to do list it’s just as long.

I’m trying to switch to making a “brain dump” list and then pick 3 things from there as my “to do.” It’s really hard to stick to my limit of 3. And if I get one done to I find I want to add a new thing so items 3 again, but that defeats the purpose of the limit.

That face says, “You put anything on for me?”

He’s the master of using all the eyebrow muscles, especially when you have cheese

As far as increasing strength in the muscles supporting the spine: these exercises and these exercises

As long as they don’t cause you pain. I’ve had a broken vertebra in my low back for over a decade and these exercises help me manage the pain.

He promises just one more row and he’ll stop for the night

Looks like a Yellow Warbler to me. They like to be near water and are almost pure yellow with light reddish streaks on their chest, which I think I can see in the bird in your photo. Great shot! Warblers don’t like to sit still for long.

Photos 4 and 5 are a yellow-crowned night heron. Very nice capture, they can often be elusive
