Fiancée OR wife? Which is she?

I hope your relations with your family improve.

I suggest you introduce your mother to AA.

20 lbs? That's one big ass cricket!

Fiancée, wife, same shit. Less keyboard strokes to type wife.

Not concerned with repairing the relationship with my mother, if I’m being honest.

Where do the frogs go for the winter?

Some leave since there are big ponds nearby. Usually a couple will burrow into the soil in the water lily pots and just spend the winter there. I keep water flowing all winter so the pond doesn't freeze solid. There are a bunch of fish that stay in there as well.

I did say giant.

Unrelated, but mechanic got the bolt out. Took 2 hours of trying stuff, and then they ground it down and welded a hex bolt head to it. I suggested they try a nut over the torx head, but I think they drilled the old head out to try to tap it first.

Those threads just above the thumb look horrid. No wonder it wouldn't come out!

Thankfully the new bolt went in without issue, and is torqued a bit more reasonably. Now to take out and inevitably ruin the seat.

My Grandmother had several like that except they had been slightly modified. My Grandfather removed the handle and connected rod that would fit in the chuck of a variable electric drill. Easy work...

My Grandparents owned a "cheese grade" dairy farm so they always had fresh butter, buttermilk, and of course "just from source and still warm" milk. I miss that stuff, but not enough to have a cow to milk!
