My kitchen has a lady bug infestation. And by "infestation" I mean 3 or 4.

Anyone know why and how to get rid of them?

I live in Texas.

@@Dolores33778 I'm sorry but I fail to see the problem. Lady bugs in the kitchen sounds like a photo opportunity to me! Take pictures of them on things, like spoon handles, teacups, get them their own IG, make them internet famous.

Why do we drive on parkway but park on driveways?

If 7-11 is open 24-7 why are there locks on the doors?

If you are not supposed to smoke at a gas station, why do they sell cigarettes?

Why do states that only allow you to buy alcohol in state stores, sell mixers in the grocery stores?

This made me think of "punch bunny".

Which then made me think of "punch buggy".

Did anybody ever play "punch buggy" when you were a kid? When you would see a Volkswagen Beetle drive by, you would punch the person next to you and say "punch buggy blue" or "punch buggy yellow"?

I've also heard it played as "slug buggy."

Why do we say "work like a dog" when we want to express how hard we've worked? Right now my dogs are having a spa day at the groomers and I am hard at work.

I have the only dog in the world who doesn't greet her human at the door when they come home from work.

She only makes an appearance when she hears the food dish come out.

Whereas my other dog greets me like we've been separated for years when I come out of the bathroom.

There's a cosmic balance in there somewhere that I find oddly comforting.

My cat is a bed hog that likes to sleep right in the middle and gets cranky when I move around too much. Anyone else have this problem?

Cats really are jerks, aren't they?

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

        Life as a big person had limited my life to what I knew I could manage to do each day. That was eat. I hadn't anything else to look forward to. So my eating choices were the best I could dream up. I planned the cooking in managable lots in my head and filled my day with and around it.

        Now I have a whole new big, bigger, biggest, best days ever. I am out there with those skinny people doing stuff i could never have dreamt of. Food is now an after thought. It doesn't consume my day. I still enjoy the good home cooked food but I eat smaller portions. I leave food on my plate when I am full. I can no longer hear my mother's voice saying eat it all up, ther are starving children in Africa who would want that!

        I still cook for family feasts, I love cooking. I still do holidays but I have changed from the All inclusive drinking and eating everything everyday kind to Self catering accommodation. This gives me the choice of cooking or eating out as I choose. I rarely drink anymore as I usually travel alone now and I feel I need to keep aware of my surroundings.

        I don't know at what point my life expanded, was it when I lost 100 pounds? Was it when I left my walking stick at home ? Was it when I said yes to an outing instead of finding an excuse to stay home ? i look back at my last five years and wonder how loosing weight has made such a difference. Be ready to amaze yourself.

        BTW, the liquid diet sucks, one more day and you are over the worst. You can do it.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
