Gardening is better with a hat. So is walking, or sitting. These are hand-embroidered, never duplicated, floral bouquets that will never fade and die.

I really like this one.

Hand embroidered spring on a white straw Steve Madden hat. Adjustable size.

This is a really nice way to start the day.
Except when it’s time to get up and your knees are locked.

Some House/pet sitters don’t just house/pet sit. We look after things. Like fixing this door that had been seriously abused….

Does anyone know how to get the current episodes of Grand Designs and the Repair Shop online? Or on a streaming service...( as in NOT cable?)

I thought I'd post this.. I'm seeing another surge of 'click here and hold your finger to bypass the algorithm' posts. Again.

This copy paste thing does not do anything. Been around for ages and it's been debunked tons of times.
You see the same few people because you comment and share them more than you do anyone else. And they do the same to you.

To get rid of ads, and yes, you CAN get rid of a lot of the ads, by clicking on the three dots, selecting don't show the ad again, click a reason ( I say it's not relevant) and then say never show the ad again.

If you do that every few weeks, you will have very few ads on your feed. I have about 1 for every 10 posts.

You also need to change your ad preferences.
On your phone: tap on your picture.
tap Settings.
tap settings and privacy
then tap Ad preferences.
Accounts Center
Ad preferences
You can manage topics you see, or remove advertisers.

And while you are at it, turn your microphone off on all your aps.
Google 'how to turn off the microphones on my aps on my ------ (type ofphone).

Stop using your google account to sign into any ap.
Go to "My Account" : "Security" ( https://myaccount.google.com/security )
Click on "See all connections" link in "Your connections to third party apps & services" ...
Click on the gear at the top of the "Third party apps & services" page. ...
Disable the "Signing in with Google" prompt.

This isn't the olden days. We need to take control of our devices, and if we don't, we will get unauthorized use, spam, hacking... you name it. The information is there on how to use these systems to OUR advantage and not be at the their mercy.

Please don't respond with anecdotal stories about talking about something and then seeing an ad. Please don't ask 'how do I do that on my phone?' Google it.

Yes, maybe sounds a bit snippy, for that I apologize.

This little feller has the sweetest chirp. It's almost like a bird.

The first morning with a new pet sit is all about learning.

I’m learning that those big eyes can get me to scratch her back some MORE!

I (Linda) am now Pet First Aid certified. Took a terrific course from ProPetHero.

And I have a certificate to prove it!
