As long as the sun stays out, I can run the crockpot on high for 37 hours. When I first turned it on, it was 7 hours. Either is more than I need for black beans, and I plan to turn the heat down at some point. Experimenting.

My phone is suggesting I set a timer for 45 seconds. This gives me faith that my phone has no idea what I’m doing.

Can we all unite on fighting rogue apostrophes? Apostrophes are for contractions or possessives. This will not affect your political standing. We are not republican's, democrat's, progressive's, or conservative's.

The fridge died. Only four years old, dead compressor is under warranty. Contacted LG, who handed our repair to another company. Other company said they would contact us in 48 hours. Didn't, and doesn't answer calls. #LG

My phone doesn’t recognize me with my new glasses, even though they are similar to the ones that disappeared. Slightly darker frame. Starting to understand how Clark Kent got away with it.

For all the northern transplants about to experience a first southern snowstorm: do a conversion like you would for dog years. Maybe not quite 7 like for dogs. Figure each southern snow inch is four northern inches, and act accordingly. 3 TN snow inches = 12 New England inches. #snow

I watered and covered the rosemary, but forgot about the kale, which is not in sight of the house. Hoping it survived the temperature plunge. It did last year, but there was snow then, which buffered it. #gardening

I run an IRL writers group that is open to the community. Today, an elderly woman showed up and started a discussion about using chatGPT in the middle of the meeting, like she couldn't tell we're a critique group. We're all going to get old and mixed up someday. It's awkward. #writing

It’s a cyber bonus: 20% off your entire order (up to $10). Use code EXTRA20—ends Dec 2. This is from Etsy. Sitewide, I believe. Support artists. My shop is www.kickglassenamels.etsy.com

#art #copperenamel I was cleaning the copper strips that pile up next to the bench shear, when the light hit them just right to turn them into art. Enamel makes the pile permanent. Not sure what to call this one. kickglassenamels.etsy.com/listing/4403...

The people who crave power, the ones who want to hold office, are the opposite of the people who should.

I used to watch CBS news, then switched to NBC, and now I don't watch any of it. I read the NYT and 1440, but I feel cut off. Looking forward to the post Trump era.
