Do the faculties at University have open days with info over there?

Geometry, trigonometry etc

The wearer It is mostly dh that leaves things in his pocket. When a coin gets stuck in the washing machine pump entrance, he is the one that gets to fix it🙃

I know University is vastly different in USA compared to Australia, but here not having physics would limit the type of engineering degree a student could get into

Regarding splints and playing sport. Here contact sports players wear strapping tape. I did a training course once. It is amazing the injuries they just strap so a player can keep playing. It needs to be put on in specific ways to support each type of injury. The training course was a bit of an accident. I thought I was going to do a course to help identify a injury to stop injured children playing basketball, the game I was refereeing, but instead the course was how coaches can keep injured players playing

My son is an aerospace engineer. He found it hard to get a job, thousands and thousands of people were applying for every job, he would get to the top 10 and be told he was too intelligent and the company knew he would move on to something else d they were looking for a long term position. went back to uni and got a job as a research scientist after a placement.

My grandmother wore her wedding ring for 30 years after her divorce, until she remarried then wore her new ring. She said she felt safer waring it, as men didn't bother her, assuming she was married. I have no idea if any man did bother her or not. she did things like that. Like if she left her home to go shopping she would leave the radio on so people would think there was someone home talking, and she had a stuffed dog that she would shift from one window sill to another to make it look like she had pets.

Fancy wrapping paper? fabric with a small all over pattern so no need to be careful of pattern placement?

I personally know a few that have said, about themself, it is no problem, if She gets pregnant she will have an abortion like last time. To them it is a form of contraception.

Is it ? I wouldn’t know. I have been told less painful than a miscarriage. But I would have thought same level of pain. as to expense medical is free here.

Yes to miscarriage that needed medical attention. I was 12 weeks no to all other questions. I have only ever had one partner. Never used a condom, use other forms of contraception I have however been offered abortion by doctors. They seem very eager to offer it here as I know multiple people who go to the doctor for their first maternal appointment and it is one of the first questions the doctor asks. I found it confronting/worrisome/concerning. And yes here people use abortion as a form of contraceptive. Something like 1 in 3 women have .

We do this In January DH bought flowers for his aunt in Germany who turned 101 and his mother in Canada who turned 100 It was over $100 au each. Flowers cost a lot, but it isn't every day that someone lives to such an age

hugs

Not covid but I lost my sense if smell after having sinus surgery. For the first couple of years I could smell nothing at all. Then I could smell things if it was humid, like just before rain. It is now 20 years since surgery and in the last 2 years I can say I can smell things again, probably not as much as I could before, but enough that I can smell flowers just walking past a plant

I had to have mine cut off 6 months after being married and resized. I was very under weight when I got married . I was pregnant when I had it resized. It has fit ever since

Have no pets. The amount of food needed for pets is massive. Let alone all the plastic toys that people buy them for them to tear up, and all the pet poo that people bag in plastic instead of composting and all the other consumer products that people get for pets.

Forgot one of the neighbours, he bought the 5 acres, retired, and bought a kabota tractor with a scoop on the front. He spends all day driving it back and forth scraping the dirt and shifting piles of dirt constantly. Like a toddler in a sand pit with a tonka truck. A blade of grass wouldn't stand a chance. No mowing needed.

Sand, pure sand. Right by the ocean. We only have grass because we are right by a swampy waterway, our neighbours are up higher and only really need to mow in very early spring and autumn. One of my neighbours went to work in Africa for a year and had a friend sporadically stay for a week here and there. Her block is all native scrub and a slash of borders is all that is needed once a year. The other that travelled would be back and forth throughout the year. Not in a solid block. So did his garden maintenance then. The people at the end of my street just have horses, they don't live there, but check on the horses regularly. Us neighbours watch out and ring them if something is amiss like the time the horse pulled the tap off the pipe and made a water fountain. The people across the road have hired my twins (dh goes with them) to check on their horse, give it a scoop of chalf and feed the goldfish for the month they are away right now.

Yes. One neighbour only lived there maybe 3 months of the year. He had extensive gardens and an automatic watering system.he came and went. His house was a base for his travels. No animals though.

I Have the feeling from some posts that people are unfamiliar to hobby farms and are imagining a huge agricultural venture here is the wiki definition A hobby farm is a smallholding or small farm that is maintained without expectation of being a primary source of income. Some are held merely to provide recreational land for horses or other use. Others are managed as working farms for secondary income, or are even run at an ongoing loss as a lifestyle choice by people with the means to do so, functioning more like a country home than a business.[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hobby_farm I live on 5 acres, . all of our neighbours have between 3 to 5 acres. it is a hobby farm estate. some people have let it revert back to natural scrub - very low maintenance-just slash borders once a year for fire prevention. some mow the whole lot , one had 2 donkeys that eat the grass perfectly, 2 have horses that do the same thing. We have what you could probably refer to as a hobby farm. we have 2 5 acre lots. one with a cow to milk and a cow growing to eat. the other we live on and have a fully netted orchard of over 40 trees, a fully netted veggie garden the size of a tennis court, a Polly tunnel, chooks, geese, bees, a massive shed for DH to tinker around in. what I am trying to say is a small hobby farm of 5 acres or so only takes as much work as you want it to be. for some of my neighbours it is less work than living in a town as they only slash once a year. for others, like me we chose to try grow all our produce, so it takes more work. we use to be zoned rural, then they changed it to low density residential. when it was rural we could keep pigs. that is the main difference.

All well here thank you hope you are all well too

I lost 10 kg this year. I am in my late 40s. I used a calorie counting app.

A hobbie farm? Heaps of retired people here in Australia do that. They have independent income and want to potter around some land. They might have a few sheep or a cow or two and a couple of chooks. They might have a small tractor and play tonka trucks by having fun driving it around all day. I have a few neighbours that do this. Very common. Some of them travel a lot and pay a neighbour to check their animals while they are away. It isn't farming for an income. Very common here in Australia.

I guess it depends on what kind of animals. If he was raising something like meat chooks, that are only there for a short time…. there is some guy on YouTube who has a market garden in a front and back yard somewhere in Florida for just a few months of the year, no animals though.
