De tuinen in onze straat liggen geschrankt, wat wil zeggen dat het achterste stuk van de tuin van onze buren naast ons centrale stuk ligt. Vijf jaar geleden hebben we onze tuin helemaal aangelegd, met een terrasje in het midden om tussen de bomen te kunnen eten.

Vorig jaar hebben onze buren twee grote pony's in hun achtertuin geplaatst, die heel wat geurhinder met zich meebrengen. We kunnen dus niet meer gezellig op ons terrasje eten zonder een snufje pis of drol.

Er is een drietal meter wat nu wild gras is, dat ik kan benutten om struiken, hagen of beplanting te plaatsen die de geur kan bevangen.

Heeft iemand de gouden tip welke planten ik moet plaatsen? We wonen in de Kempen dus arme zandgrond.

Alle tips welkom!

Apparently the person who unloads the kiln was really confused when she opened it

ETA wow thanks so much for all the lovely comments! Many of you wanted to see more so I added some pictures: https://imgur.com/a/BYzu2Lm

JK Rowlings horrible behaviour aside, 11yo me would've thought my stepdad was the coolest.

Love how OP is fighting for her life in the comments, resorting to calling commentors 'silly goose'.

She would think I have a stick up my butt though.

Basically, as the title says. When I'm sitting next to her, am about to give her food or am about to/just stopped petting her. She smacks away. It's really cute.

I assumed it was positive, since these are all good things. But I've looked it up (my mistake, I know) and the internet says all kind of bad things.

She eats normal and her breath smells fine. Well, not fine, just not worse than usual ...

Should I be worried?

Cat tax included!

I work for a very small investment company. I’m the top performer and “star” employee. I’ve always gotten along well with my boss despite his issues..

I work remote but he makes us sit on zoom with him all day. He micromanages to a level I’ve never seen before and he can be quite harsh and rude. But we work so closely together that we’ve always had decent banter and I made enough money that I was satisfied.

A few months ago, my feelings began to change. I noticed how greedy him and this business is. We literally screw over people in desperate situations.. he has even made people homeless.. it really started to weigh on me because I do want to be a good person. We also live in a very grey area and I think we cross the lines into illegal at times. That being said, I still worked hard and outperformed by a lot.

My boss lately has been extra rude and makes lots of little snarky remarks and has been unhinged about us always being available. He calls at all hours any time of the week. He calls on holidays and expects us to always be available. I even had to get my 2 year old tested for cancer so I took the day off and he texted me a bunch of unimportant tasks to do knowing I was at the cancer doctor.. on Mother’s Day my mom was shocked by how much he blew up my phone while at breakfast. He’s been uncontrollable

Anyways, this Saturday I had a non urgent call come in. I was on the treadmill so I muted my phone and said I’ll call later. I get off the treadmill and I see he texted me a snarky response and I snapped.

I wasn’t harsh or disrespectful but I did tell him I cannot always be available and told him that I know he works 24/7 but our situations are very different. He is the owner who makes significant money and I am an employee who makes 75k.

Anyways, today he ripped me to shreds. He screamed at me in a way I’ve never been screamed at. He said I was the most disrespectful and unprofessional person ever who will never be successful in life. He said one of the reasons I will never succeed is because I have a child and several rescue pets and successful people cut out all distractions and since I have them I could never. He said he showed everyone he knows our texts and they all send I was horrible and that I am a rude person.

It was something I’ve never quite experienced and something I never expected. Anyways, he didn’t fire me. Mostly because I would have 1000% filed unemployment and my reason being: “my hourly job demands me to always be working and I’m only paid 40 hours a week” guarantees I’ll get it.

I’m trying to find another job and just work this until I have one but I truly don’t think I can. I can’t even look at him without wanting to cuss him out.

Anyways, here is my text. Please give me your honest feedback, am I the most disrespectful employee ever?

Onze tuin is een biodivers paradijs en nu de planten enkele jaren gezet zijn, zou ik graag als volgende stap een bijenkorf in onze tuin plaatsen. Zijn er toevallig voorwaarden waar een geschikte tuin aan moet voldoen? En bestaat er een platform dat zoekende imkers aan beschikbare tuinen linkt?

Our tortie has been with us for 10 months now, after being caught as a stray and spending a long time in foster care. Nobody wanted to adopt this beautiful creature because she was so scared.

The last month we've been working on her confidence going outside. At first she would get spooked by the wind, a chicken or a loud car. She would go out and then shoot back in with her tail down every few minutes.

It's wonderfull to see her run and play now, she has grown so much. Today she brought her first mouse home. While I'm not thrilled about the fact that there's a dead rodent on the floor, it's ridiculous to see how proud she is. My heart is happy she loves us enough to want to show us her catch.
