My cat has been on the fridge for years now and won't come down. My heal was badly cracked and painful. Petroleum jelly fixed it right up in a short time. There is just a bit of the callous left on it, and I'm hoping it comes off eventually. Rexall has this service where just before you run out of meds, you get a text to come and get more. Well, it has not worked for me the last while as you see. First off, I got 2 orders in 2 weeks, then I got this third one in 20 days after the last one So now I have 2.5 months of pills on the shelf. I canceled my auto refill service and am just going to call them from now on. I told them twice already it was giving me them too early, and nothing was fixed, so I'll just do it the old way from now on.  

Been getting a bunch of follows on Instagram with this stuff in it. Looks like a bunch of people won almost a billion this last year LOL. And yes, they will definitely be giving you $50K just for following them HAHAHA. No idea what the scam is, but there has to be one. Never bothered to click the link, for obvious reasons. This profile was made within days of it following me and look at the foolish people following it. Then there are the beautiful women with a hand full of sexy photos all posted on the same day. I have a friend on TikTok that has them following him when he has no content, and he is convinced it's not scammers LOL. If they ever do comment, it's to ask you to direct message them. If you do DM them, they will then try to scam the hell out of you after the obligatory flattery. I have to wonder how much money these people make off these bots. There has to be good money in it, or there would not be a literal plague of them on the internet. Everywhere but Facebook I h...

A burnt potato chip . The 2 kinds of coffee I like best. My vanity mug I got many years ago. Some dick stole that hat and I miss it.  

First off, I would really like to know if other brands of Android TV literally DON'T have the ability to install Chrome browser on them. I'd prefer to have Edge on it, but that is not an option either. I've never used an Android TV other than this one before. For the small number of browsers out there for my TV, this (Puffin TV Browser) is literally the only one that does not totally fail at navigating web pages. The also all claim to have adblocking then don't block ads at all most of the time. Puffin is not perfect at adblocking but I'm not getting any popups at all, just the stray in-frame ad here and there. The downside is it's NOT free to use. You will very shortly run out of bandwidth on it and be told you need to pay CDN $1.29 a month to use it. Well, I just signed up for the 7-day free trial, then on the 3rd of March I'll be billed for it by Google. Comes out to $1.44 with taxes. Being that I've been using it kind of a LOT, I am willing to pay th...

So, the math was not working out on my credit card statement. I figured the card company had messed up somehow. NOPE, it's my bloody bank. Conexus put a "float" - a kind of hold - on 2 of my payments. Why? Because I put money on the card 3 days in a row and their system did not like this. So, I call them and spend far too much time on the phone. They person on the other end of the phone tells me she sent in a request to have the payments released. Well cut to 8 hours later and still no change in my usable credit, I still can't use the card, even though I'm in deep need of getting some stuff from the store like today. What am I told when I get ahold of the card company (again), that it may take 5 days to clear. Well, dang... I was going to have to wait 5 days to get it to clear in the first place, so this "request to release payment" is about pointless then I guess. So no can use until it clears. Sigh, WTF is the point of the request? Tell me what is the ...

It's the birthday of my favorite thing I own - Pusheen. This is one of the originals, before the new company took over making them. She was kind of expensive in the day, but I just had to have her, and had the money at that time. I've got a bunch of Pusheen toys, but this is my all-time favorite and stays on the nightstand beside my bed. At night I pretend to give her treats and say good night to her. In the morning I pretend to feed and water her. I'm sane, really, I am, I just really enjoy pretending she is a real cat. Sometimes I talk around holding her in front of me, and pretend she is super kitty and flying. When I'm in a lot of pain, or depressed or anxious, she helps very much, just by holding her and listening to music. Life would not be half as good without her. Yes, we had a birthday celebration with the last of the biscuits I had.  

 So, my credit card company "Collabria", seems to be fucking with my credit card balance. I called them about the difference, and for some unexplainable reason, he came up with a 3rd number not the same as mine or the systems. He seems to be missing several transactions, and payments in his calculations for no valid reason. Here is what their web page is showing me (below) and the math of it from the previous balance and all the transactions and payments. Payments are in brackets and the balance in brackets is an overage or a negative balance. Yes, I'm typically over my limit for the simple fact they let me be over by $100. I have no idea why the person at Collabria is not seeing all the transactions, but they don't seem to be. He only mentioned the ones pending and 2 in the posted section. Pending have not been processed but still count on your balance. Posted have been processed already. So, you can see by the screen shots below they are not doing the math right at ...

I've been using Jigsaws Galore for many years now. I've enjoyed it a great deal. I've recently started to keep track of my puzzles I make and do, for literally no valid reason other than I can LOL. In any event, the list is here, you can click it to read them if you wish. I'm currently zooming through a bunch of them as I have been playing them for hours every day and I tend to make most of them 80 or 100 pieces and I can do them in 4 minutes on average. I don't really like, most of the time, to do big puzzles, but I have done a set of 1000 piece puzzles and have a set of 500's that I'm going to get into eventually. Then can be fun when I can focus better and want to keep my mind busy. In any event, I said in a Vlog I'd post on this blog post, where you put the puzzles if you want to share with friends and back them up like I do. Below is the file path on the PC. No idea on the Mac. Puzzle files go in: C:\Users\USER_NAME\AppData\Roaming\Jigsaws Galore\J...

I had noticed pain in my left heal. I came to find out it was very badly cracked and the callus on it was flaking off. Most of the hard Callus ended up coming off, but a bit of it remanded. The skin under it, was deeply cracked and in bad shape. I spent $18 I did not really have to spend on some ointment that was supposed to be just for healing cracked heals. Well, after 5 days of it doing nothing, I went to urgent care as my doctor would have taken a week to see me, and I was concerned with possible infection. The nurse practitioner looked at it and told me to put Vaseline on it and keep it in a sock. She wanted me to wrap it in plastic wrap, but I don't have and I'm not spending the money on any, so I just used the sock. It's working well to say the least. It will most likely be over a week yet, maybe two before the big crack fills in, but it's doing it. I'm going to keep putting moisturizer on my feet every night before bed after this heals up. I don't want a...

I wanted to switch from Chrome to Edge on the phone, but for the life of me, it won't go away with asking me my password AND a fingerprint every time I use my credit card. Skip that. Chrome just does it, with only needing to type in the magic number on the back of the card. There are several things I visit on Chrome that are not available as apps, so there it is. Facebook seems to be my existence most days LOL. Normally Thursday its way down, but I used the phone a lot that day even though I was out. I follow a lot of people on YouTube as well, so that is most of that. I am wondering why YT Music is not showing up, I spend at least 4 hours a week on it, most times more, so it should be above Chrome ever time, but never is.  

This was recommended to soften up the ear wax in my ears before I go and have the doctor flush them out. I used it once then noticed my foot was all kinds of messed up. So, I've not used it for a week like I was told to do, as I'll be attending to my foot before I get onto the ear wax.  Yup, it's messed up a bit. There was a thick layer a hard stuff on it, most of it flaked off all over my carpets. The skin itself is deeply cracked and is not feeling to well. There is a bit of sharp pain all the time and now and then I'll get a spike of serious pain from it. Enough of a spike to wake me up actually. I've was putting lotion on it but have been told by a Nurse Practitioner to put Vaseline on it then wrap it in plastic. Well, I don't have plastic, so I guess I might just cut down a garbage bad and see if I can't get it to fit in my sock. The bag alone would have me on the back on the floor in no time, I think. No significant change as of yet, it's only been...

I had ordered the 10,000mAh bank from them and it was defective. I contacted them and they sent me the newer and larger model. I just got it today and I'm charging it up all the way. If you don't have a rapid charger, this will take a full day to charge all the way up. Fortunately, it was at 81% when I got it and I am using a rapid charger. The bank it's self-will rapid charge your device with an output of up to 22.5ma. You will need a cable that will do rapid charge, as not all of them do. Ther are 2 standard USB ports and a USBC - the USBC is how you charge it up, but it can be used as an output as well. It comes with a protective case that is rather nice and is easy to use. The charging cord that comes with it is extremely short, so it is not of much value when charging the bank. There is some math to do to see what the "actual mAh output" will be, as there is a power step-up, and this consumes a lot of current. (3.7/5*100%=74%)*90%=66.6% or 0.666 0.666*mAh=out...

Don't fall for this. The number will end up charging money on your phone bill, it's a scam. Bitcoin and Bitcoin venders do NOT use Gmail for their business emails. Check your PayPal, there will NOT be a charge on it from them. 

 

Commented on a post asking where to get a key fob for a command start. Someone already mentioned that you need to have the module activated to start with. I commented that you need to program the fob. I got a reply that was an image of the manual on how to operate the key fob. SMH - That's how to use it. It does not magically know how to pair with your module. It's not very hard to pair them, and you can just follow instructions off a web page, but yeah, it needs to be done first. If your module did not have a code that is different than others around it, you would be starting other people's cars not just yours. I guess somehow this bit of simple logic is just too much to understand. Yes, there are overlapping codes, but they make sure you don't have them sold in the same regain. It has happened that when relocating to a new province, people lucked out and the code was the same as the car parked next to them. I've literally in my entire life only heard of this once....

 

I finished doing and uploading tag videos (Q&A) for all of 2024. The ones scheduled for this month were done 2 years ago. I tend to do them in batches and upload in advance like this. My own tags anyway. I love tags, but not many people do anymore, this is why years ago I made a separate channel just for the tags.

 Most resent list of puzzles. Reformatted the list recently. It's a lot easier to read now, I think. All puzzles made with Jigsaws Galore . I'm the many years I have had the program, I've done many more puzzles than this, but I have only recently started keeping track of them. List below.
