My cat has been pooping on the exact same spot on the rug over and over no matter how we clean it. We’ve tried Anti-icky Poo spray in various amounts of intensity. Tried other carpet sprays, tried Bissell deep clean vacuum. Any other ideas before we have to hire someone or throw the entire rug out the window? 🥴
Hello! Next year will be our first time participating in cookie season (d/b 2nd year as a troop). Thinking about the scheduling of the cookie-related badges - my first cookie business, my cookie customers and cookie family patch - can this badge work start in January, or is it better for girls to have started some of this work already in December to prep for the season? Having not done a cookie season I’m not sure how much advance planning is needed on the girls’ part vs just working toward the badges during the actual selling season. Thank you!!
Hi! I’ve been desperate to put up a LFL for ages. I finally got my plans together enough to apply for the permit through the city and…was told that LFLs are not permitted at all except if they are 20 feet in from the road on our property. Which basically defeats the whole purpose. Has anyone ever gotten a permit totally denied?? Do you just put it up anyway?? There are a ton of LFLs in our city right by the road so I have to assume they are all unpermitted! It was kinda devastating to be told I’d never be able to have one.
Edited to add: I live on a pretty busy county road with a sidewalk on only one side of the road, and it’s not the side my house is on. So I wanted to put the library up on the sidewalk side across the street from me for ease and safety of access, but the land across the street is technically public land (there’s a pond/woods there). They said I could not build it on the public side and also could not build it within 20 feet of the road on my own property because they don’t allow permanent “structures” within the public right of way. The city guy knew what LFL was, he said he has one on his property that his wife put up and he measured the 20 feet in so they would be following the city ordinance 🙄
I started a new daisy troop this year at my Kindergartener’s school. We did the daisy petals this year. Now we have 4-5 current first graders who will be moving on to brownie troops next year and their spots will be filled by new girls. The majority of the troop will already have earned their daisy petals and we’ll be working toward other daisy badges, but there will be a handful of girls who have not earned any petals or badges yet. How do you manage a split group like this? Do the new scouts earn petals at some point, and if so, how? Thanks so much for any advice.
