@FortCluck didn’t you say your husband hates his Galaxy? So how come you didn’t make him or one of the kids get an iPhone? that way you could keep your favorite phone haha

I do think it will be a good thing because it is saving me money and now we can talk with my husbands best friend on facetime. He is older and has been very sick so I like to keep an eye on him even if its just through the phone.

That’s sweet.

Oh... you are supposed to plug the hole? No wonder our dog gets the treats out in 30 seconds, duh!

If you mix the peanut butter with a bit of dry oatmeal, it take's em a teeny bit longer to get it out ...

Thanks, very good to know, we'll try it right now.

My oldest does have an iphone, but I wanted my own. I don't like asking them to use their phone because I like them to have their own thing that I don't touch unless I need to. Plus I would have to take it all the time.

My husband only hates the S9. I honestly think it was the worse galaxy ever made. It wont charge at all, it has no service when everyone else has service, it doesn't do talk to text correctly... In other words its junk. I got him the S10.

I did have an iphone before the pixel 2 and I didn't mind it, I just wanted to try the pixel that everyone was talking about.

I don't plug them and River is still chasing hers around, then playing with a toy, then back to the wobbler.

We only plugged Skye's because it kept her busy longer. "Busy" is a GOOD thing with this dog. The longer her mind stayed active, the less time she had to figure out what else to get into. She's closing in on three, now, so she's finally settled (mostly!) but Holy Cow! What a looooong puppyhood!

We use one for Basket-Case ... errr ... Skye, DD's dog. Without it, she finishes her meal in minutes and goes looking for more trash ... errr ... things ... to get into. As a youngster, when we had to leave her for longer periods, we'd fill it with kibble, then plug the hole with peanut butter. She was happy for nearly an hour!

We fill ours with peanut butter then we put them in the freezer. I love kong products.

I don't have big enough ones because she's ginormous!
Most of the other roses are against a southern exposure brick wall, but I've got probably 100' of rose beds that are between 8' to 15' deep. I had thought it would be great if I had a giant roll of plastic I could drape off the porch railing, like an awning... but alas even my tarps aren't that big. Ima hopin' and prayin' Mr Weatherman will be wrong.

Have you tried smudge pots? When I was still a kid (a while back ...) my Dad had them. He didn't use them often, but when he did, they saved his "babies." I don't remember much besides the smoke, some heat and saving his grapes.

And freeze it!
