Ferrets leave a poop pile in a corner which is what I was dealing with the mice. I’ll go with Jack!  Love those dogs. And they poop outside.

Received a letter about a credit card dispute asking for a response within 2 weeks. Letter arrived a month after it was sent and didn't include the attachment I was supposed to be responding to. So they closed the dispute.

Well, actually there was one. But we've not heard back and I think it was
a scam of some sort.

There's a constant demand for pet-minding house sitters over here - sourced on a couple of trusted websites, or through word of mouth . I've done it a lot, it's been pretty beneficial. I don't know if there's anything like that you can look into as one possible idea?. Of course you need somewhere to store your stuff - and to not have own pets, usually. I've done it on my own but some property owners want couples, and/or blokes who are handy at maintenance, or gardening.

Anyway, sending you vibes to find something good!

I hear ya. The place I've lived in for the last 12 years has been on market for the last year. It's under offer atm.

Hope yours doesn't sell - or new owners keep you on.  If it's a bit old and crumbly (like ours) maybe it will take a long time to sell.. I don't know about there, but over here, since Covid, there's much less renovating of old houses going on - due to less availability/ slower sourcing of materials.

Just got this news in my email.

Man, Disney is getting greedy. In October they will be boosting prices of Legacy Disney Bundle+ by $4 from $14.99 to $18.99. You can get the same package with ads for $12.99 now which will then go up to $14.99 in October.

Classic corporate shell game with prices. 😝

Cutting the Cord is now going to be cutting the Stream.

Ha. a level 10 feet from the street.
Back in grad school on summer I did a little foundation work. Being the newest member, I was charged with carrying the wood planks used to shape the cement back and forth...and this was up in the hills west of Denver, so yes, quite a distance from the road and usually involved some hills.
