This is the best forum I've ever been on, I have no one on ignore, then again maybe that's because I'm getting older and more tolerant of others views even though I might not agree with them. Even if I really don't like what someone says, I try to answer in a kinder way, though I don't have a lot of patience for people unjustly jumping on others over subjects they may feel they are superior on. There are many here that are living out a daily survival mode, many that are above our abilities, we all need to keep our ears, eyes and hearts open to differing situations that others may offer, on the other hand that knowledge needs to be handed out in brotherly/sisterly love and never in a frame of I know best. Things I've done that are successful, I pass on to others, somethings may seem archaic, like using lead acid batteries for solar when lithium batteries are now the cat's meow, yeah I know L/A batteries don't last all that many years and take a lot of care, but they work for us in a time period we think we'll need them. My dad died at about 73 years, I've outlived him by 6 years, so far, thing is I'm just trying to keep things running around here so that I don't have to put in a lot of downtime for repairs, actually we have tried to buy the best products for our home so that we wouldn't have replace them so frequently. We've always tried to look for quality over low costs and even then failures show up, that's just how life is. Anyway, if I have offended anyone to the point of being responsible for them leaving this forum, please forgive me, I really believe this forum has some of the best people with great information and it would be a shame to leave over words, if someone offends you, there's always "Ignore" that will keep you from being upset by what they say.

I think it's a wonderful place, I recently got out of line because I felt a new member was talking down to people who are like family too me. I feel I should apologies for that, I'm sorry but just can't take that sort of behavior it brings out the worst in me.

There is always a prayer if you need it or a virtual hug, someone to listen when you need it! Great info! Lots of fun! It is weird caring about and waiting to hear from and about our friends we don't "see"!
 
Really only one member has caused me to to lose my gruntle. They are now excommunicated, and can no longer enjoy the privileges of this forum. Others may have bad days, we all do. Grant them Grace and move forward, i have not walked their shoes.. Maybe I learn things as I get older.

Wonder how @LadyLocust is doing.

Haven't heard from her since last Friday...5 days.
Hope she ain't too sick.

I just texted her. She's been sick, slept a lot yesterday and no energy for anything. Hopefully she will get to feeling better this next week.

THANK YOU! Hope she feels better soon! I think it is important to have someone "here" who can get in touch if we can't be here! An emergency contact!

Agreed! We discovered we are about a mile or so away from each other so made it easy. She has my number too if she gets in too much trouble but it sounds like she is starting to turn around thank God.
 
Sentry takes jobs that don't allow him to post on the web. The last such job lasted 1 1/2 years. There is no telling how long this job will last.

What happened to Parascuba? They were on for a while discussing a property in the west and dropped off. Hope we didn't discourage them. Hope they are okay...
Been a good many months since the last sign in, maybe the tank ran out air?
 
@Grizzleyette___Adams ..Hopefully the 'crickets' we're hearing from 'down South', there, are Only cuz, well.. there's so Many crickets down South.. ;) and nothing 'Concerning'.. Ya? 🧐

I think she is still missing from this site and the other. Hope all is well.
 
I felt for the person... they made a bad investment on one piece of property, some how escaped that deal and began another...

They were given good advice, most responses were patient and positive. I not sure what happened but living in a desert isn't for everyone.
