Many years ago, a friend said he was following “The S Diet”. It was very simple and memorable:
——
No Sweets or Seconds, except on Saturday and Sunday.
——
Simple… easy… and it actually worked for me as a way to help maintain or reduce weight (along with some mild level of exercise).
My challenge is that in the intervening years, my brain fought that and changed it to:
——
No Sweets or Seconds, except on days ending in ‘y’.
——
🤣🤦‍♂️

#joshJohnson is a smart guy. I’m watching him being interviewed and he’s giving an example of his process. He tells stories. He told a story about a couple of his friends taking another friend to a strip club. And in the course of the evening this friend became convinced that the dancer was falling in love with him. She was just doing her job, and doing it well, engaging with him and making him…

Bilder machen bei vielen Shops über 50 % des Seitengewichts aus – und werden kaum optimiert. 🖼️
Dateiname "IMG_4832.jpg" sagt Google nichts. Alt-Text fehlt. Format ist JPEG statt WebP. Lazy Loading? Fehlanzeige.
Dabei ist Bilder-SEO low-hanging fruit: Beschreibende Dateinamen, Alt-Text mit Kontext, WebP mit Fallback, Lazy Loading ab Bild 2. Kostet einen Nachmittag, spart Ladezeit und bringt Traffic über die Bildersuche.

2/2 Then I moved on to working on finalizing the stream and edges of the poolpond.
After a trial run last fall I realized I needed to do a little more sculpting of the clay at the front of the pond where the bog filter and poolpond meet.
I would like to encourage a long waterfall along the front edge.
So after some peeling back of the liners to reinforce the berm in a few spots near the tree especially, I made a proper ledge at the front and am laying down some of the slate that we also used on the #pandemicpond in the front yard. It'll tie the two in conceptually.
Now I am filling the bog filter with city water (the likelihood of filling from the skies is long gone now) but I will only fill it enough to get a read on where the water is wanting to flow.
Ideally I would like two channels from the bog filter.
The main one will go toward the poolpond, along the front and spill over from there.
A secondary one will go close to the tree to be used if I need to divert the water from the poolpond but still want to keep the filter and system active.
Now I wait... I'm running out of time for today but will be back tomorrow. If I'm lucky, I might be able to get a pump back in and start up the system!
the apple waych strap is hiding a tan line... but it is not just a tan unfortunately lol

A parasite that has been eating people for 3,500 years is about to be wiped off the planet.
It infected 3.5 million people in 1986.
Last year, it infected 10. And I have not seen it make a single front page
