I worked on unclogging the tub for nearly an hour.

Now I feel so drained.

Plan for the day is to attack my inbox for an hour or two, pack lightly for an overnight, drive to Detroit, check in to the Ferry St. Inn, spend the afternoon at the Art Institute, dinner at Mario’s, then the highlight, Herbie Hancock at Orchestra Hall.

@peterhoneyman Great place to visit! Did you find your way to Rivera Court? And the Wisteria Gates? https://www.lireo.com/photo-of-the-week-wisteria-gates-detroit-institute-of-arts/

@peterhoneyman Hmm. For some reason, I can't see this image. Comes up with "media hidden."

I can see and read your other posts with photos and alt text.

Why do beets always win?

They are un-beet-able.

I finally decided to sell my vacuum cleaner.

All it was doing was gathering dust.

If you recently sold your home in the United States, a settlement with the National Association of Realtors means you might get part of your realtor fee back.

The change in commission rules take effect in July 2024.

@chris From the news story, there's a couple documents and FAQs that list the Eligible Date Range. Could impact your dad's sale as well.

I found this interesting,

"Eligibility depends on where you live, but in some parts of the country, the settlement covers people who sold homes as much as a decade ago."

House showing time. See you if news breaks.

This is the family that's coming back for a second look, is comparing our house to one other.

Hopefully, ours is the winner.🤞🏼

    Hivemind: i need your help!

    What are people using nowadays as an alternative to (on Windows) ?

    Preferably an alternative in which I can import existing notes.

    @jrf_nl I imported my existing Evernote notes to Notesnook last year. Been happy with my move.

    @jrf_nl I like that it's encrypted end-to-end and open source. And their focus on privacy, design, and helpful documentation.

    I had thousands of notes in Evernote. I didn't have any notes with 5 or more tags, but before I moved, I did a major notes cleanup.

    Understand your concern about purchase. For me, because Notesnook has a 30-day guarantee, I chose the Pro plan. Cost was less than my annual Evernote plan. I figured if I didn't like it, I'd ask for a refund.

    @jrf_nl Sorry to hear the import didn't go well.

    How is Joplin working out for you?

    I'm curious, how many notes/notebooks did you have in Evernote?

    I'm currently in a Teams meeting with a "Charlene", "Charisse", and "Charlotte" (plus other with names that do not start with "char").

    It takes a couple of seconds to realize who they want to talk to 😂

    I didn't know the history of the village. I'm in that area 2-3 times a week.

    Old Rawsonville Village lies at the bottom of Belleville Lake in southeast Michigan.

    @NeadReport Have you seen the green historical marker in front of the McDonald's on Rawsonville Road?
