Look, I get the idea but come on, it's just looking at stars. People are acting like this is some huge life change. It's nice to chill out there, sure, but calling it a game changer feels like a stretch. My neighbor did this and now he won't stop talking about it like he found a new religion. It's just a backyard.

That's a whole mood, @tara_palmer. My old electronics always seem to act up right when I get something new.

Sounds like a pretty standard stove flare-up, not exactly a crisis.

Remember when @abbyk10 mentioned that cash envelope for car stuff? That made me try a "gas only" week where I couldn't buy anything but fuel... ended up fixing a weird rattling sound in my dashboard with a zip tie I found in the junk drawer.

Honestly thought that toothpick trick sounded like a total hack job for years. Figured you needed some fancy wood filler or those plastic anchor things. Tried it on a wobbly drawer pull last year out of pure laziness and it blew my mind. That screw is holding stronger than the original hole. Now I keep a box of toothpicks in my toolbox right next to the glue.
