This or soaker hoses. For drip irrigation, if you’re hooking up to a spigot, just keep in mind the pressure isn’t great so the longer your tubing, the less the end will get. I finally hooked mine up to our sprinkler system and it’s better, especially with raised beds.

As someone else mentioned, if you have raised beds and using a spigot, might not be the best option. But play around with it. Hands off watering will change your gardening life!! :)

I’m with ya, but then how will big pharma profit off these diseases? This is why we can’t have nice (life enhancing) things.

Yes and MORE!

I don’t know how to “dial-in” a 3D printer and have been using the Creality K1 with no problems. :)

Matching socks is overrated. They’re almost all pink so let her get creative with pairing them. :)

It always seems the ones you neglect/forget about are the ones that thrive. Haha.

Yes it takes time, diligence and patience, but it’s my happy place. Seeing all the different types of seeds, learning about their needs and then witnessing what they turn into…it’s just amazing.

But if you don’t enjoy the experience, buying plants still reaps rewards.

This is more for a tax preparer, but might be useful in your situation that my organization put together.

Top Questions to Ask a Paid Preparer

1. How do you determine your fee and how much will it cost?

   • Reasonable fees vary, but the cost to prepare your return should not be based on the amount of your refund.

2. Are you open and available all year-round?

   • Preparers should be available year-round to help you as needed.

3. What is the expected time frame for receiving my completed tax returns after submitting all required documents?

   • Setting clear expectations is crucial.

4. If the Michigan Department of Treasury or IRS contacts me regarding my return, will you be able to assist me?

   • The answer should be yes because you must respond if this happens.

5. Will you be signing the tax return as a preparer?

   • Yes.

   May I see proof of your PTIN?

   • All signing preparers are required to have a PTIN.

6. How is your data protected?

   • The preparer should have a written security plan as required by the IRS.

7. Will I be receiving my refund directly (i.e., through the mail or direct deposit)?

   • Refunds should come to you directly, and direct deposit is the fastest and safest way to get your refund.

8. Will you provide me with a copy of my completed tax return and return any original documents I provided?

   • Yes.

9. Are you affiliated with a professional organization?

10. How do you learn about new tax laws?

• The best answer is through continuing education.

11. Do you have a professional license, credential, or training? If so, may I see proof including current status?

*A “no” response to questions 8 & 9 does not necessarily mean that the tax preparer has a lesser ability to properly prepare your tax return.

You should start a community if there isn’t one. :)

Oxy were originally “sold” as nonaddictive. I hope it’s true there’s actually a pain med that’s not, but unfortunately we won’t know until it’s too late.

That’s because Google is not only a shit company, it’s also in Trump’s pocket. They changed the name of the Gulf of Mexico for US users. WTF?

Was attempting to walk over a short trailer ramp (maybe a foot above the ground), caught my flip flop on the ramp grate and fractured by tibia, fibula and ankle. Yea, from a foot off the ground. Never broke anything before and even when I did, I only have this lame story. Haha.

Zelda - echos of wisdom. Loved the new concept of the echos, but too easy of a game and too much talking without the option to skip.

This is a good reminder that you can look up Form 990 for any nonprofit (they are required to submit one), which includes any staff that make over $100k.

Also, it looks like the “salaries” you found are total compensation, which also includes medical and retirement benefits. The CEO’s salary is around $600k, but also got a $300k+ bonus.

Good to know it’s ok that my asparagus looks the same in its second year. It’s a little unruly. Haha.

I’m pretty sure your kitty is the reincarnation of my tortie who we lost in January. She looks almost identical. If this is the case, you’re going to love her. She was sassy, but such a loving cat. ❤️

Not surprised. It’s just Meta being Meta and garbling up all yo data so that it can make money from it. Maybe don’t use the app. Try accessing from your mobile browser.

Darknet Diaries - interesting (and mostly first hand) stories about hacking, the dark web, etc. it’s so crazy how some of these hackers (good and bad) get access to data/companies.
