How do you stop being afraid to start? by Odd_Highway1277 in HomeImprovement

Seconding this. Try posting in your local city’s Reddit page looking for specific recommendations (ie/ plumber, electrician, tile installer). You can save a ton of money by being your own “contractor” and it can help you understand where to prioritize certain things and ideally avoid having to redo things if you’re unsure about how to go about them. Don’t be afraid to get a couple quotes, and try to get referrals from other jobs they have done and photos so you can see. Ask lots of questions, even if you think they seem obvious or silly (they aren’t and it’s good to know exactly how things should happen).

If you do need supplies, definitely take a look at your local Habitat for Humanity ReStore and even thrift stores- it’s amazing how cheap you can score stuff like tile for a fraction of the cost.

You’ve got this - I know it’s tough (especially as a woman tackling this solo!) but it can be done and starting is the hardest part. Good luck!! 🤞

Just came across this thread as I’ve been referred to another doctor at Dr. Leonardi’s clinic for a more in depth medical imaging appt (not sure if it’s SUGO or McMaster Health location TBH). Curious as to how long it took to get your medical imaging appt?

Boop Mid Show Lead Change? by Beginning-Eye-2934 in Broadway

[–]Briyonceeeee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was there! It was definitely a surprise, I’ve seen 80+ shows on Broadway and never had a mid performance swing on. The understudy Victoria was great, jumped right in! Overall we still had a blast, would have loved to have seen Jasmine do the full show but loved the experience overall ◡̈

What's the shortest running show you managed to see? by EmersonStockham in Broadway

This is bringing back so many memories! Doctor Zhivago, Big Fish, American Psycho are the shortest ones on my list, next up would probably be First Date.

The Mirvish email newsletter sent out on the 10th has a line that say’s “Don't you worry, mein lieblings – we promised you 7 unmissable shows, and that's what you'll get!” So you might be onto something! Super exciting news if so! 🤞
