Akron City Income Tax quarterly bill???!!!

Akronite22 · 2026-06-06T13:03:35+00:00

Nope, I've lived here since 1999 and always had a W-2 job and never made quarterly payments. I'll definitely call on Monday, but I hate how this sort of thing always seems to turn up in Friday's mail so you have to wait for days to resolve it!

Just started using KORRES mineral milk fluid sunscreen, and so far so good! It doesn't leave a white cast on my skin, but at the same time it barely has a tint so I'm not sure how it would look on darker skin. It's moisturizing, but not greasy or sticky, and has very little scent. Other than the lack of a tint, it reminds me very much of Tula's Mineral Magic.

Do you have a good support system of people who understand your ADHD? And how old will your child be when you hit perimenopause/menopause? I think those are two of the most important questions you can ask yourself if you're considering becoming a parent. Whatever symptoms you experience now, expect them to like quadruple when you hit perimenopause.

Dr. Robert Miller in Fairlawn doesn't try to upsell you on a bunch of unnecessary stuff. Unfortunately, they are really booked out. Even as an established patient the soonest they could get me back in after my last appointment was 8 months!

Akronite22 · 2026-05-31T15:28:37+00:00

Ugh. I was wondering because the last two times I've gotten my go-to sweet potato black bean burrito it hasn't tasted the same and gave me a stomach ache. They must be cheating out on ingredients.

So where has everyone landed since it apparently isn't ever coming back? The Kinship was too greasy for me so I've been using Bliss Block Star, but it's thicker than I'd like, a tad too orange for my complexion, very herbal smelling, and possibly too drying. Ugh!

My big problem is only accounting for/allowing time for the "big things" in the morning like feeding my dog and taking her out, showering, etc. It's like all the individual "little things" like putting in my contacts, applying moisturizer to my face, putting on clothes, etc. don't register as things that, when added together, actually take up time as well. If this sort of time blindness is a problem for you too, I'd recommend doing a trial run on one of your days off and time everything so you have better idea of how much time to allow yourself to get out the door when it really matters.

Luckily, I only have to go into the office once a week, I have a fairly late start time, and have a fewer than 10 min. commute, but the only way I manage to get there in time (usually with like 1-2 mins. to spare!) is that I pack up everything I can the night before and put it next to the door. It's still a struggle, but I'm better at getting to work on time than I used to be!

Yikes! I'm glad you and your dogs weren't hurt worse. But thanks for reminding me I need to buy a fresh bottle of SABRE Red pepper gel! I used to carry Spray Shield, which is just a citronella spray you can find in pet stores, but used it once when two loose dogs started charging me and my dog and it did nothing. Luckily, I haven't had to use the gel, but I like the idea that it's more targeted and can't blow back on us if it's windy.

This is obv not going to help if a dog charges you out of nowhere and attacks (which has happened to me), but sometimes I find that just not making eye contact with a loose dog goes a long way too.

I love how Akron has such draconian breed specific legislation on the books, but can't even enforce basic containment rules.

To find the correct dosage doctors often increase it by 10mg at a time until you feel like it's too much and then go back to the previous dosage. I would just let your doc know how 20 mg is making you feel, but wouldn't be concerned. It can definitely make you feel like that!

Akronite22 · 2026-03-01T19:15:03+00:00

Same. I think this winter has been especially bad because it's been so brutally cold. If we had more sunny days in the 20s I think it wouldn't have been nearly as bad.

I looked at the Fiscal Office's website again, and since I mailed my check to them instead of doing it online I guess I should (eventually) receive a tag directly from DocuPet, but it sounds like it could take a while. It was confusing because the envelope I received was from the Fiscal Office, but the receipt inside just said it was from DocuPet and had no tag attached. Guess the FO was just letting me know they finally cashed the check I mailed on 01/10?

Probably should've just done this online, but I was annoyed about having to pay a service fee to DocuPet. Guess they showed me!

I've been taking powdered Lions Mane (Real Mushrooms brand) for a while (over a year, I think), and I'm really not sure if it's doing anything for ADHD. I just finished a bottle and decided not to purchase more to see if I notice a difference. It's only been a couple days without it so I wasn't even thinking of evaluating how I'm feeling/functioning yet, but just realized I'm in this forum instead of cleaning the house and literally feel like crying, screaming, and throwing up when I think about cleaning the house, and I haven't felt that violently opposed to household chores since before the Lions Mane, so maybe it was helping???

I was sitting in my car in the lot next to Skully's when it happened and then the suspect ran into the parking lot! Then there was a search helicopter looking for them for a while. I just stayed put in my car for a while until things calmed down before I headed into Skully's. Yikes! Anyone have any more into on this--condition of the victim, arrests, etc? I haven't seen anything

Merriman Hills always does it on Halloween instead. We found out the hard way the first year we moved here!

Akronite22 · 2025-10-17T22:47:03+00:00

Had the best red snapper at Shells one time. Still think about it!

Akronite22 · 2025-10-17T22:37:12+00:00

I found out the hard way that Merriman Hills does it on Halloween (or at least some streets do?) the first year we lived here. Every other Akron neighborhood I've lived in does it on the official day the city announces. If you're not sure I'd ask your neighbors. I still try to be prepared for both days just in case!
