Thrive to spite them

I got my pants from lands end and they fit although the material is a little thinner than I remembered.

But all the pockets are sewn shut so tightly I'm afraid I'll rip them if I try anything to get them open. What's the best way to cut the po keys loose without destroying the pants? I don't have any kind of sewing stuff just a large pair of scissors and a smaller pair somewhere and a bunch of knives.

I got the pockets open. But caused some minor damage I think is mostly cosmetic and won't be visible.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

Nail scissors would be your best bet, cuticle clippers. Or fingernail clippers, if you're careful. If you do have to go buy something, get a seam ripper from the sewing section of a department, possibly a drug store, or a fabric or craft store. Safest way to do the job.

I actually found some good bras at Lane Bryant. I bought them because they matched my skin tone, but they have proved to be quite flattering. More than my $60 Walcoals.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

Askye, in summer a sprinkler on a motion detector will deter the neighborhood cats. However since neither of us is cruel enough to do that in a New England winter (not to mention that it's not practical anyway), you might think about trying something like this: [link] or the SSSCat spray. I am not entirely certain how well those will work out in the cold, but it might be worth a try. If Penny is feeling territorially threatened, who knows how she will try to defend her territory.

I can't do the sprinkler because I don't have an outside water source. Lately the cats haven't been an issue because it's too damn cold. The lease states no outdoor pets but I know one of the cats belongs to someone who has lived here nearly a decade so I'm nit going to make a fuss.

I'll look into the sound thing. As long as it doesn't bother Penny. The outside cats don't really do anything but sit there and look like smug assholes.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

I assume all cats look like smug assholes. Because mine always have. Dim, half-deaf and thinks she can defeat a Shepherd in straight battle but Puppycat is still a smug asshole. And despite her name, loathes the puppy.

I actually found some good bras at Lane Bryant. I bought them because they matched my skin tone, but they have proved to be quite flattering. More than my $60 Walcoals.

I found a slightly minimizing bra at Target. Right now for my lifestyle, body and boob needs, they are perfect. I bought a couple in every useful color.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

(Because of my shoulder problems, I need the straps to be set pretty close in to my neck, and most bras that come in my cup size have straps set further out, which puts pressure on some already-painful parts of my shoulder joint.)

Have you taken a crack at racer back bras or the clips that can make a regular bra more racer-shaped?
