    Woman's Forum: Potty Issues

    I've seen that. Luckily from far enough behind to not get splashed. YUCK!

    TC, Oy! And Whew! I didn't even think of that! My old glasses are in a case in the car for some reason...I guess in a pinch I could use them. Gotta remember to keep them! I used to be able to wear my sunglasses after dark in a pinch, but this last time they tinted so dark I couldn't even wear...

    I've been using this shop for around 20 years and they know I'm struggling financially right now from when I asked them when I needed my brakes replaced, if there was a way I could save money on the brakes and still have them done right so I'd have enough sooner the manager suggested it. So I...

    That's it! That's what I couldn't remember! OEM! I've always tried to do OEM so the jumble of brands throws me off. Thanks so much HDR as I might not have found/remembered that on my own. Gary, that's good to know. I'd probably save more from labor cost to just have new ones put in since...

    Queen, that's kind of a good thing. I only *have* to have mine for driving and being in public with wide spaces or I'd not be losing them. LOL Sounds like a great event and good fun. :)

    GIRL'S ROOM: Women as caregivers

    I think it's rare for anyone to be able to pursue their dreams without being able to find some positives so they can perservere through the down times. Right now it's hard for me because there are very few things to find positives in---probably why I dream my van life even if it turns out I...

    Haven't found my glasses yet. :P I haven't been looking for them though. I did find the scissors I was looking for the other day so I figure the glasses will turn up that way. I still have time yet since don't have any driving to do in next couple of days. I need one of those finder things...

    GIRLS' ROOM: Why is family so unsupportive of solo female travelers?

    Thanks. :heart: It's been a long time, since my dad died, since anybody acknowledged I was doing a good job.  I think I've done a pretty good job and she's an awesome young woman.  I hope we get to travel some more together before she's really off living her own life.  For now I'm within...

    Dispersed Camping under attack.

    It just seems to me that perhaps stories like this are meant to set people up to be for rather than against certain agendas like this: http://www.snopes.com/2016/07/16/gop-platform-proposes-to-get-rid-of-national-parks/

    6 in. clearance and Roads in these places

    Disclaimer: I'm probably talking out of my hat and I know nothing about RV tanks of any kind, just have a design background. That being said, when I look at the first photo it appears the big problem is the protective shield. It appears the tank is close to or a tad above the lowest line of the...

    I bout spit my coffee out from reading that! :P My twisted humor automatically went to an unknowing person thinking it was gatorade and taking a big gulp... That said, when thinking about pee containers I've given thought to what smallish containers would "hide" the contents in plain sight...

    Spark Plug Brand

    Surprisingly the subaru forum didn't have much about them.  It's possible I just didn't do right search but I tried by model/year and "spark plugs" and just "spark plugs." The only thread with "spark plugs" did give me pause as someone with a similar different issue with the vehicle took it to...

    Spark Plug Brand

    I'll look at the owner's manual. Don't remember it saying specific brands but I don't remember much and it's been a while. Gotta blame my memory on not thinking to look in owners manual before asking the question too. It would have been logical. *sigh*

    Even if they are uhm, 10 or so years old?  :rolleyes:  I feel so bad for my little car, I've been a bad owner but I've had medical and money excuses. :(  As well as not knowing about rockauto. WOW!  This is how I know I need batteries for solar that I don't have to be as responsible for once I...

    Yeah, it was all upselling for those platinums. Don't remember if it added a couple bucks to the paycheck or not. Wow, am I reading that page right?!?!?!?! I coulda swore he said the plugs would run around $21 a piece at parts place. WOW...

    KASibson, I've been stuck in southern Ohio most of my life. Managed to escape once to LA and my dream job but had to come back to take care of my grandma because I was the only single in the family. I'm grateful I was able to do that for her but I never realized then that they would have had to...

    Spark Plug Brand

    After reading the bad new parts thread I thought I'd ask for brand recommendations since I can take parts in to my mechanics to save a little money. Years ago I might have changed them myself but it's not an option now. Local parts places are autozone and advanced auto. Car is a 4 cylinder...

    no longer alone

    I can't even imagine living with your uniqueness. I have my own that years ago a doctor tried to get me into a teaching hospital so he could explore at too much risk to myself. With other medical stuff piling on I can relate to your anxiety and crushing depression. I wish there were words that...
