    Jerry your beautiful wife gave you three sons. Her body went through a lot during those periods of time. It doesn't work the same after giving birth. It's been stretched beyond belief. I too seek out restrooms every where I go. Be patient and wait on her while she uses the facilities and think of those three sons you are blessed with.

    Jerry, trust me, I never, EVER leave the house without first using the bathroom. But all that does is buy myself a little time before I seek out a public restroom. If you had had daughters instead of sons, you wouldn't have made that comment. Our 4 daughters and I have benefited enormously from the fact that my husband grew up with 3 sisters. In the 40 years I have been married to him he has never once hinted any impatience about our need to use public restrooms. He has only been gracious and accommodating. For which I'm truly grateful.

    The real estate market in southern California is crazy nuts too! Three neighbors have sold their houses in the last few months for some crazy prices. The thing is, you have to have a place to move to and in this market, you will end up over paying for your new house too (unless you move out of state).
    I work in a Life Plan Senior Living Community and we've seen an uptick in new move ins all due to the outrageous prices people are getting for their homes. If you buy in and move to our community, you are taken care of for the rest of your life (we have four "levels of living" Independent and Assisted Living, a Health Center (skilled and short term rehab), and Memory Support).
    Its nuts out there. Have a great Monday. :)

    I've been a bathroom frequent-er since I was a kid! I joke I should write a guide where every bathroom in the city is! I asked a nurse once why? She said likely because you're walking which loosens the bowels, you/they become relaxed and then voila! I feel you Linda!

    The bathroom issue my better half is always looking for a bathroom when we go to any store he says I'll be right back that is my clue that he is going to the bathroom...so I guess man or women needs a bathroom at times.
    Gizmo was somewhat needed today I hope he is okay........see you guys next time.

    Gizmo's jokes always crack me up. Seems his voice should be younger though. When you mentioned "doctor" and he groaned, it shows he understands English -- that was hilarious. Always fun and informative questions, even the "whacky" ones! Glad to see the recent crazy weather hasn't affected you. I always think of you when I hear about hurricanes hitting Florida. 💛💚💙💜❤️🧡

    Great Answer to the Nudists, and the Veranda homes would be the best type of house to buy for privacy. You handled that with your usual tact, of course, Linda chuckled a bit and so did I. BTW, We live in Monarch Grove Village, south of 44 and absolutely love it here for the past year. The Villages are amazing, we still pinch ourselves too....

    Keep your videos just as they are please, giving your opinions and your personal experiences. That's why we all watch your videos, to hear your take on everything in and around The Villages. I agree with you Linda, the restrooms in each of the recreation centers are absolutely beautiful and clean! It's a tour in itself! LOL I've lived here 5 years and have never seen a rat, just one palmetto bug in the garage and it was dead. I loved the tours and I always scheduled a tour for guests when they visited because they would gain more information about The Villages than I could give them.....and Jerry, "Unhappily living in my parent’s basement." 🤣😂🤣 ❤

    For the nudists: there are about a dozen nudists camps, clubs, etc in florida. Just Google nude beaches in florida. Brevard, Hudson, pasco counties have some. Land-o-lakes apparently has a big one. The villages might not be the place for you. Check out retirement places near the nudist camp. Or find the closest nude beach to the villages.

      @Dale Divine are you serious or pulling my leg? There are gobs of minors living in the Villages. Living with grandparents, adult children living with parents with their minor kids. They are all over the place in the summer with the camps that are offered. Parents renting with minor kids. Please use your brain and check for yourself.

      @Dale Divine I don't actually know much about the Villages. Other UA-cam people have talked about it. Letters to the editor have complained. It may be against the rules, or code or whatever but if no one complains.....
      With caps lock I think I've determined you are pulling my leg and know everything I have said is true.

    Let's define critic. One who engages often professionally in the analysis, evaluation, or appreciation of works of art or artistic performances.

    Palmetto bugs were what we occasionally encountered in Florida Jacksonville. We moved there from Vermont. Shock was when I saw that could fly. It was an older home but we had pest services every week.

    • @51February
      @51February 3 роки тому

      And now we live in Houston. Palmetto bugs a fact of life. Occasionally one makes it into the house. Usually half dead. We use Borax. Sprinkle under the sink. Works pretty well and no toxic chemicals. But no hesitation if I need to spray a fast one.
      Main thing is removing dirty dishes.and clean counters.

    I was ejected from my brother’s early Porsche over 40 years ago. The car predated seat belts. We’d just come from visiting our dying grandfather in the hospital. My brother announced, “Let me show you what this car can do.” He was doing over 60 going into the tight corkscrew turn, hit the gravel, and he overcorrected, sending the car into a spin. Thank God I took the impact mostly with my shoulder blade, rolled up the earth bank, then rolled back down into the road. My brother ran to me, screaming my name. Thank God I lived. To this day, I insist on being my own driver, and won’t even turn the car on until I hear seatbelt clicks from every passenger. Those who don’t use seatbelts just because they don’t like them underestimate the power of physics and overestimate their ability to avoid accidents.

  • @ernie7065

    I have lived in a Class A RV in Naples in two different RV parks .... both had alm rats. In one, where lots alone sell for $100-$400k, an RV worth well over $200k caught on fire because a palm rat ate cables and shorted the batteries. The RV was a total loss. In the RV park where we live now in our double-wide manufactured home.... many homes have both palm rats and palmetto bugs (cockroaches). We had cockroaches in ours, which is worth better than $300k. We finally figured out they were getting in through a vent in a bathroom ceiling and a pocket door. We taped both of these with heavy white 3 inch wide tape. No more palmetto bugs in 2 years. Facts.
    My point: both of these pests exist. Both can be eliminated, but with difficulty. We never have had palm rats, but a next door neighbor has. I cut down 2 small palm trees to avoid this problem in the future.
