@cultofmac @ePandu The linked article states: “Upgrade is nice but not necessary.” Rather different from what you’ve stated in this tweet.

@TheRealDoctorT Indeed. And tears. Thx for posting this

@peggy_blair All good here, Rogers in Kanata. Who’s your carrier?

[Shelley Martin @shelmart]

@IAmNikkiSavoy I’ve dealt with this for 45 years! I stopped reminding DH of anything that doesn’t directly affect me a loooong time ago. He says I’m mean, I remind him I’m not his mother. & somehow, he bumbles along 🤦🏼

@lorraine_knibbs @CancerInsider It’s funny how little things make a big difference, eh? Thanks muchly for your additional advice - I’m saving this entire thread & replies for reference before my next colonoscopy.

[Shelley Martin @shelmart]

@CancerInsider I wouldn’t have either, but it was recommended to me by a nurse who was advising me on some issues w my colostomy (now reversed, yay) & how to prep for an upcoming colonoscopy (all clear, double yay!). I’m saving your 🧵 for prep for repeat colonoscopies

[Shelley Martin @shelmart]

@CancerInsider This is all excellent advice! I also found that sucking on a hard candy (such as Werther’s) for a couple of minutes after each dose was really helpful.

@yuloolootoo @LexiApollo @cmclymer I’m 72 w some health issues. No way I could confront the perpetrator; but I think I’d be able to stand beside the targeted person & place a hand on their arm so they’d (hopefully) feel less alone

@TheRightDuff @dieworkwear I’m thinking the stylist forgot to bring a steamer. The side creases, along with a couple of horizontal creases, suggest the pants had been folded flat for a while.

@nickgraynews You can buy replacement parts for the Swiss Card: $5.50 for the knife, $9 for the scissors. I think every item can be purchased separately, but I reckon the knife & scissors are the most-often replaced because of zealous airport security!

@GeorgeJedras This is great! There was mention of the 3-day, 3-week, 3-month stages among parents of the dogs that went to UK in ‘23 (Rodney, Moritz, Whacker, Hope). I like the additional details provided in your our chart

@KoontzOncology @nickgraynews Great extra ideas! I’d dislike using a “communal” lip balm - but I wonder if that might be available in single-use packaging?

[Shelley Martin @shelmart]

@cultofmac Nice, but it measures 4.3” by 3.2” - where are you seeing anything stating that it measures 2.5” on any dimension ?

[Shelley Martin @shelmart]

@iPhoneinCanada Aha! Perhaps that’s where they’re spending the Public Mobile rewards that they’ve discontinued!!

[Shelley Martin @shelmart]

@nickgraynews Yaaaassssssss!!

Thank you so very much for sharing this beautiful adventure.

@maddyeisenberg My mom called it the very prosaic “egg in the hole.” I reckon the other names you’ve heard will be more creative

Now I’m craving this - might be breakfast tomorrow!

[Shelley Martin @shelmart]

@jaybee484 @douglasmack @TestKitchen Likewise! I can’t believe I’ve never heard of it before now - and have just subscribed. I’ll definitely be checking out some of the past episodes!

@1Password The visual Watchtower feature motivated me to review 547 items, taking my Overall Password Strength from 672 to this! I now have 426 items; after 10 yrs using the app, I had dozens of passwords for apps & sites that no longer exist!
