This exactly, except Ibuse a DeWalt. I have found that the brand power tool used has little effect on the taste and extraction, however.

I live pretty close to your area and just bought my first bag of whole bean coffee this week (previously just got pre-ground packages from the grocery). Most of the coffee shops in my area (eTown) use Senergos as their roaster, so that's what we got to start. Excited to try some other stuff regionally.

Staining red oak for a slat wall around our fireplace. Hope to get it installed this week.

I feel ya. They technically are doing their jobs. Their job is to try as hard as they can to screw you over so that their bosses can buy a fifth house and yacht in the Caman Islands. And those Dexcom G6s just seem like a totally unnecessary expense when you can just pee on the stick at the Dr office once a week to check your BG levels.

Decided if I was going to lose all my data I may as well make the most of it. So today I factory reset, rooted, unlocked, and flashed Lineage OS onto it. It's running way better but still lags a lot. Might be time to upgrade.

I don't see how he could have survived. But I hope he did for his sake.

We live in a pretty rural area and take a lot of trips on it. We've even camped in the back with the seats down. It's also the first SUV we've owned and just love the versatility of it. But that part is true of any SUV.

I absolutely love our 2013 Toyota Highlander Limited. Have a roof rack on it and it's fantastic at what it does. Just got back from a trip to town with two little ones and a load of lumber on the roof. It's understated styling is just so pleasing to look at and it's really comfortable inside with an amazing sound system. Just all around a very enjoyable (albeit boring) car to own.

Good suggestion! Might try that.

Agreed. And believe me you, they'll find a way to screw us all over if we give them half a chance.

That comment sounds a little bigoted.

My wife and I lead a pretty simple life. I work from home at a low-stress job. She is a stay-at-home mom. We have a small house, a garden, and some chickens. But we have a 3-month-old and a two-year-old. Nothing about our life feels slow or simple. On top of watching the kids there's always tons cleaning to do and house repairs and upkeep. How do you balance things that aren't optional like vehicle/house maintenance, upkeep, and raising kids? Is simple living just a luxury of those who don't have kids?

Or are we already living simply and it just doesn't FEEL simple?
