Well, I've been branded…

! [media-1]

Not that way, I may like kink, but I'm not kinky, definitely not like that.
No, after I got rid of my LLC, I decided to go from a sci-fi joke for the company name to a ΓΌber generic branding this time with Ω­GENERALΩ­ Delivery branding. Thanks to CyberGwen , I've got a logo…

![media-2]

From there it was just a matter of getting the logo put onto things, both a safety vest ordered from AliExpress

![media-3]

And a sign from Phil the Sign Guy

![media-4]

Quality from him is good, but I should've gone with a larger and/or custom size, and maybe had him do a coloured background, because this one looks kinda boring.

All in all, I think I'm out around $100 for this, plus picked up a pair of replacement magnets for the back, a pair of yellow diamonds, one reading delivery driver, the other frequent stops, those fit perfectly on either side of my license plat.

Ok, so last month I sold a large number of my husband's books using three apps for selling them. And on Monday I reviewed that apps, calling out one of them for dragging their heals on paying me. Gee, surprise, surprise, I got paid last night, and while they inspected my first two buys (they limit buys to 100 books) and flagged a couple books as unacceptable, the third one went from received to paid with nothing in between… I think someone saw my review.

Chuff² reshared this.







I'd missed this news story, maybe you did too:

They're either over confident, or things are rigged, because that's incredibly tone deaf, voters will not be happy with that, and the elections we've had make it pretty clear that voters aren't going to take it

Hey look, I've got jeans, jeans I'm proud of. Yeah, not everyone is proud of their genes, but…

Ooops, wait, wrong type of jeans. :neofox_wink_blep:
Seriously though, tis been a long, long time since I wore jeans because of two problems, one is that within ten washes, they're shrunk versus ten years for my cargo pants. The other is right there, cargo pants, cargo jeans don't exist. I don't need all those pockets, in fact the leg pockets hold my phone, wallet and car key, and a handkerchief in one other pocket, that's it.

Still, gotta have my cargos. So, didn't like WalMart's price for cargo pants, and since my gram had given me an Amazon gift card for Christmas, I decided to see what Amazon could do for me. After looking at pants for a while, they offered me loose fit 'fashion jeans'. More like loose fit cargo jeans!Β‘! Loose fit, good, everything is slim fit these days, and trust me, if'n there's not a law about stuffing my fat old body into a pair of slim fit jeans, there should be.
So I ordered a pair, there's a selection of waists, but only one leg length for each, which thankfully worked for me, little long, but that's more a matter of me being an odd numbered size when pants come in even numbers, not their choice of length. So, we ordered one pair, tried them when they got here (good), washed them and tried them again (still good). Ordered two more pair in different colours, fit just as well, and all of them after a few washes have no fit problems.

So, yep, happy pup, I'm in jeans again.

I’m hard to find jeans for as well. Just recently got a few pairs after finding some Wrangler relaxed fit stretch jeans that worked for me. Being able to crouch without having them either try to insult or injure me is basically my go to test for pants at this point. They passed!
Would be cool to have a couple pairs of cargo pants for when I go out with my cameras, you can never have too many pockets for film, batteries, etc.

Ok, seem to have an ant problem in my kitchen, that's new. Not just new here, but for how messy I am, I don't think I've ever had a problem with ants in my house. Problem showed up in force Friday afternoon, I scrubbed everything down, but woke up to a return here. They seem to be mostly staying around one corner of the fridge and there's no signs of where they're coming from. Ant traps and ant spray I guess, just make sure the spray isn't from GI Ant Company, can would prolly spray ants everywhere if'n it was
