I think so. I just have to pay more attention to what I am doing when I put them in because once they are in properly it does get rid of the feedback problem.
My library says that all copies of "Good Omens" are in use. So will have to put a hold on it.
What I know of the book is that it was written by Terry Prachett and Neil Gaiman. And it is about an angel named Aziraphale and a demon named Crowely who have become friends. They met in the Garden of Eden and have taken a liking to earthly things. Also they are suppose to be looking for the Antichrist to make sure that he doesn't destroy the world.

Got rain.

Got the window in the attic blocked off with some visqueen. It's a crappy old wooden window, so that should keep the house warmer this winter assuming it holds. Not too concerned since I've never done this before and I'm not worried about it taking in any water if it doesn't hold up.
Also got the leaves out to the curb for pickup two weeks in a row. I've never done that before either. Lawn looks great and almost all of my leaves are down. Hopefully the short grass aids the wind blowing off any leaves that I get from any neighbors who's haven't fallen yet if we don't get another warm weekend to do it again before the snow is here to stay.
Off to my friend's birthday party. Not sure how long I'm going to stay there since it's at a bar, but should be interesting catching up with a lot of other people I haven't seen in years.

Guests have come and guests have gone, so it's back to fixing things up at a more reasonable pace. They thought the bed was comfortable and the bedroom/bathroom convenient, which was my biggest worry, so all is well.
Aside from the various daily chores I just signed up myself and dear daughter for the various insurances we will need for the next year. Am working with dear daughter to have her set up a spreadsheet of our various medications so I can line up all of the refills to one day, and have a heads up on when we need a new Rx. Tomorrow will be cooler (we had a two-day hot spell @ 90F) so I can do some outdoor work but need to talk to hubby about next on the agenda so we're working in the same direction. There's still plenty around here to do!!

I'm really glad I went. Caught up with a lot of old friends and acquaintances. Looks like I might have a few job leads after tonight too. One or two of them could be some serious life changing money if one of them were to work out. I'd have to work full time for the first time in a dozen or so years, so working on the house like I want to would be out of the question pretty much with all the time it takes just to do regular maintenance around here, but if I was still in a big hurry to move I could just pay somebody else to do it.
I was there for 5 1/2 hours and wasn't even tempted by the booze. Even had no problems out in the beer garden while the bowl was passed around and had to turn down a few people who were practically trying to force some edibles on me after I mentioned that I've never tried them before.
Good to know. I can trust myself in a scenario that I was fairly uncomfortable walking into, and I didn't feel the need to make up an excuse to leave early either.

Why remodel and reproduce all the same limitations of your current space by reproducing what you now do day to day?
I've read a few really good organizing tips however and come up with a few myself:
a place for everything
store it where you used it
keep everything you use daily out in plain sight
pull-out drawers below waist level, cupboards above
wide drawers to avoid having to open a lot of them to find something
open shelves are freaking dust-catchers

No, you spouted some sort of gibberish about non-existent 'allies' about stupid extortion threats (with everyone listening in!), about Russia something or other, and so on.
You failed to answer the question - HOW IS IS NATIONAL SECURITY THREATENED?
The Less Americans Know About Ukraine, The More They Support Intervening There
Here's a map of Europe and western Russia, with the countries labeled.
I know that most people couldn't find Ukraine without those labels, even more, they probably couldn't find Europe.
But looking at this map, which countries do YOU see are on Ukraine's border that might reasonably be 'threatened'? Because I strain to see the Hungarian-US border anywhere. In fact, there's 4,864 mi between Washington DC, and Kiev.
Even more, I find no US allies on Ukraine's border. I see Moldova, Hungary, Romania, Slovakia, Poland, and Belarus. They're NATO members, but not US allies.
EVEN IF - and I see no reason to imagine that would happen - Russia were to take over Ukraine, I fail to see how that could pose a security risk TO THE US.
So, you STILL haven't answered the question! You know, it's an important question. Everyone says the reason why what Trump did with Zelensky was bad was because it jeopardized US national security. They weren't talking about Belarus's national security, or Moldova's national security. They claimed to be talking about the US's national security. Yanno, MY country - a country whose interests I take seriously. (I don't know which country has YOUR loyalties, but it's clearly NOT the US. The US is a tool to you. You're hoping WE will sacrifice some part of ourselves for YOUR interests.)
So here is my question again, in gold ... just so you don't miss it: - explain to me EXACTLY how US national security is threatened by anything that happens in Ukraine.
IN DETAIL.
