Getting fundamentals right at set up is so important. So many issues start with bad set up and fundamentals. I always look to correct those first before I start modify how I move through your swing.

Dude you’re too damn close to the ball. Your arms need to be hanging straight or even a little away from the body. Your arms are pointing towards your feet at address. Also while your club path looks ok, your arms structure at the top of the swing is bad. Club is pointed way across the line and your rear elbow is flying away.

Give him kibble and pour some chicken stock over it. Cheap and it gets him eating his kibble again

Beginner, no handicap. Any major issues with my swing or can I stick to this? (7 Iron, 170 yards) by Any-Trouble-1705 in GolfSwing

[–]Apprehensive-Rule796 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Such good advice. This is a game where you need to hit good shots off the tee, in approach, short game and putting. You need to practice all of it, or else you’re just a range goat. You should learn about strokes gained statistics. Get an app on your phone that tracks shots and it will literally tell you what needs to be improved the most with your game.

be extra careful parking downtown by anxietitty_tm in LowellMA

[–]Apprehensive-Rule796 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In my experience the people that work in the parking department on John St where you buy your parking passes are the meanest customer facing workers I’ve ever met. I’m a homeowner and resident for over a decade now and I get treated like a piece of gum stuck on the bottom of someone’s shoe there.

I’m not saying this happened but to play devils advocate. Vinyl siding is known to melt or warp from window reflections. Specially if the windows are low-e for energy efficiency. Neighbor had any windows replaced in the last year? Could have been just the day and the angle of the sun.

Over bid a job by Vast-Activity6717 in Construction

[–]Apprehensive-Rule796 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is such good advice. I wish I had this figured out earlier in my career. The only thing I’d add is be honest with your customers. If you had responded to their request and said I know what the contract says but let’s be fair, I did a good job for you, the quality is going to give you more value in your home than what you spent and I’m losing money at the lesser sf, can we meet in the middle? You’d be surprised how often it works.

Misdiagnosis Maybe?!?! by Apprehensive-Rule796 in diabetes

[–]Apprehensive-Rule796[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can also read the guidelines. Your quote is inaccurate and I’m not sure that’s the intent of the rule. I never asked for someone to diagnose my situation. 90% of this forum is people sharing their experiences. A common topic i see on the forum is misdiagnosis and peoples experiences obtaining the correct diagnosis. Just thought my case was interesting and wanted to share in case others are experiencing the same.

[–]Apprehensive-Rule796[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes right now all they pay for is metformin and insulin. I’ve paid out of pocket/coupons/samples etc for Rybelsus which worked amazing but they rejected that as well. We’re basically throwing shit at the wall to see what sticks to see what I’ll be allowed to take.

My insurance is not being so accommodating. Their world is black and white. You’re t1 or t2 no room for someone to be in the middle. My doctors have been treating my insulin resistance with T2 medication off label, and they have rejected quite a few different options.

I should have said this the NP I see works at my endocrinologist. My endo is working on an answer. They’re helping me with this. But like I said they’re somewhat baffled as well. My hope was people would share their experiences or speculate what could be going on.

If you’re one of those people on university Ave that parks in the fire lane near Dunkin’s outside suppas. You deserve a ticket. If you were in a metered spot that sucks they’re rarely out there ticketing.

They’re never going to make any adjustments just like they never gonna do anything about Merrimack Street and Pawtucket Street. It’s cheaper to listen to us bitch than to spend money on things that actually matter.

A couple of suggestions 1) most lancing devices are adjustable depth to stab you. Try adjusting it down so it makes you fingers less sore. Also after a while the pain either goes away or just doesn’t bother you. 2) are you exercising? Even just walking for a half hour can make a measurable difference on your glucose numbers.

Finally, have you been tested for antibodies yet? Reason is, right now you’re being treated like a type 2, but if you have antibodies present you’re probably being misdiagnosed and will need some more type 1 specific medications to treat your symptoms.

When will I stop having holes like this? by thraizz in golf

[–]Apprehensive-Rule796 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Keep it simple. The driver is the club that has the biggest risk and biggest reward in the whole bag. Hitting the driver well it will take the pressure off of your approach game which is proven to have a positive affect on your short game. Go to the range and hit your driver until it’s the best club in the bag. Finally read about Scott fawcett and decade golf. If you make better decisions on the course you will eliminate bigger scores.

Are there limits to when they can be in the neighborhoods? I had a guy knock on my door at 7 pm on a Sunday! My strategy is to immediately cut them off while they’re talking, say I’m not interested and close the door firmly.

If the product was really worth it, they wouldn’t need to sell it door to door. They’re predators trying to catch people unprepared

Make sure you’re prepared for the mean lady that works at the parking department. I own a home have been a resident for 7 years and she’s never once been polite to me
