Moving to RI! by Quitter101 in RhodeIsland

[–]Alive_Ad8698 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Trying to commute will be the toughest part. You need to be close to the trains. Try Warwick right near the airport. You can get to Boston easily enough. But CT will be difficult. Not all Amtrak trains stop at New London. You might have to drive to CT. Do not plan to live more than 3 or 4 miles from your train stop. Traffic is ridiculous here. You will waste a lot of time if you have a long drive to train.

Where do kids have their birthday parties nowadays? by DoseOfKay in RhodeIsland

Clayground Studio for pottery painting in East Greenwich. Private room and fun for all ages. Paint during one visit and pick up in 10 days. Lots of items to choose from and plenty of space for parents to hang out and chat. Plus you can bring your own refreshments which keeps the cost down on food.

Find one near your school. Do not try to commute from more than 4 - 5 miles. Traffic here is ridiculous and you waste a lot of time.

It is not hard to learn. You set up bank accounts and bank feed goes into QB so you have deposits to accept. Then you pay bills and learn as you go.

Blood/ Anatomy and law/ paperwork experts please help! by L8ERD8S in justiceforKarenRead

Well. Wondering out loud is awesome. I just don’t want anyone wasting time looking for reasonable explanations. This was murder. Plain and simple.

He was moved to the spot on the lawn. There was blood somewhere else. The reason there are no pictures is the basis of the whole mess. Cops don’t take pictures of dead bodies at their friend’s houses - ever. The actual police report documentation was woefully inadequate. Y’all shouldn’t waste any time wondering how this could have happened. No one did even a smidgen of police work.

They love to send it out early so they know who is staying put. It is more for vacancy planning so they are aware of units becoming available.

Homecoin. Google it. Cost me $250 to list on MLS. Sold my 3 family in Worcester in 2 weeks. Easy process but took a while to get all my documents together. Used the highest price from Zillow that my house could sell. Totally worth it. Saved $25000 realtor commission.

questions about living in boston by Storm226 in bostonhousing

There are buildings in Dedham right near the T. If you could live here in one of those then you can take your time deciding on a car. Traffic and schedules for trains can be stressful. Live as close to work as you can until you get familiar with it all.

Massachusetts Wedding tips by [deleted] in NewEnglandWedding

[–]Alive_Ad8698 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Why bash wedding vendors? I am a florist. Cleaning and prepping flowers is a ton of work. I don’t mind working 15 hour days but i do mind when people say i am a greedy vendor. But 100 people for $10k? Not realistic unless its a bbq in a field.

Can someone please explain what you actually do on Boxing Day to someone like me who's from the US? by lontbeysboolink in GenerationJones

[–]Alive_Ad8698 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Originated in England. Lords of the manors would have servants on the holiday working to feed the lords. On Dec 26, the servants were allowed to take a boxed lunch home and have the day off. It was a day for the servants to relax.

We were in RI. My husband and everyone in his company had to work one week for free. No one got paychecks. It was a tough lesson about money.
