    I would suggest though that you bold the change. Then others will know something is
    Funky in the text.. so not to derail someone’s integrity..

    Maybe that's what I'm doing wrong? I usually space down before writing.

    Edit: Well that's weird. Now the last line of the quote appears as not part of the quote.

    It’s a chat forum where people offer spontaneous comments, I never understood why “proofreaders” put so much effort into correcting folks. That happens especially in arguments haha. Not like this will end up in a published manuscript. :D
    Though I do admit to sometimes grinning when I see “breaks” for brakes, “grill” for grille (cookout anyone?), etc. Though I myself have been guilty of that, tends to happen when you are typing quickly and typing the generic sound of the word without taking the time to consider the context. Am I rite? lol

    Personally, I prefer 7Up. :D

    Good morning fellow Porchies. I put a new battery in the electric fence solar charger yesterday morning - too cold for the bees to leave their hives so no bee suit needed.

    I think I'll spend some time working on/cleaning some of the MILSURPS today - after I take the recycling in to the center.

    Be safe out there!!

    About an inch overnight and still raining. Could be snow this time of year, so thanks Big Guy. New disposal today. Should take 10-15min. Bought a new scoop shovel yesterday. Sprayed it down with snow release. I'll wear this one out also.

    Finished most of the outside work yesterday. Pond is winterized and leaves are raked to the curb for pick-up this week. Coupled with the baking and other work on Saturday it was a full weekend. Today is food shopping, donations to the food bank and laying a wreath on my parents' grave sites.

    Have a warm and comfortable day folks!

    I chop up our leaves with the mower and use in the compost bin, during the year, and on the garden beds.

    Recently stretched the Taco's legs with a trip to Okla (1000 over and 1000 back)- kid was getting a new heat/air unit installed in the house over there. His kid (who strangely acts like him in a small size) was raking leaves (grudgingly, also like his dad). Burst their bubble by simply raiding his shed, firing up his mulching mower and cutting the yard - presto a whole lot less work. Why didn't he know this? Dunno...............

    It was nice to remember why I no longer live in a house that uses GRASS as ground cover.

    A little something every chance we get.
    And I'm sitting here imagining the bees and their electric fence!

    That's not even enough time to curse doing plumbing. You have to work slower than that!

    :pccoffee: Good Morning Porchites! Well, still 70 and grey. Sometime this morning, it's supposed to be not that! Rain, drop, and lots of wind predicted. But no storms... oh well. It's MonFriday, and a new page in the little book.
    Have a great day all!

    That reminded me of the time I was standing in the checkout line with one. The woman behind me made some comment and I said, "My wedding anniversary is coming up. This is for the wife." She disapproved.
