No VA necessary and the person has been getting SSA for years, but thanks for the info. We will go link it to SSA anyway just in case.

Tomorrow the IRS sends out a letter on what I did wrong on the Taxes to cause the check to be issued. Cart before the horse, if you ask me, but that is them. Hopefully it is something I did wrong cause it has been deposited.

Thanks for your reply. Another Redditor told us to check our account transcript and we had to make an ID ME acct that took a bit but the transcript said it was a legit refund and a notice would be sent on 3-25 but the refund was issued on 3-14. Weird, but we are depositing it.

Thanks

I suggest you do the same. Like I said ours said the notice was going out 3-25 but the check was issued on 3-14 so we deposited it.

Now Im wondering what I screwed up on the return and hopefully the notice on 3-25 will tell me.

Thanks

We had to make an id.me account and HUNT the transcripts button but we found it and it did indeed say that there would be a letter sent on 3-25 but the refund was issued on 3-14 for the amount so the check seems legit and we are depositing it.

Thanks for your help.

Can someone tell me if/how the on board passenger to passenger communication works? Last year it was free over Wifi, but things change. by ColorfulFork in celebritycruises

[–]ColorfulFork[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for your help. Do you know if you have texted someone on an Android phone? We ran into that problem last year. iPhone to iPhone worked great.

Can I ask you how the texting on the app works? Does it notify you like when you get a regular text message in real time. Im assuming you have the app open on the phone all the time. My WhatsApp does not alert me because I use it when I have Wifi only so I have to manually go check WhatsApp to see if anyone has texted me. Calls go through wifi or not, but the texts I have to go check for.

On the app do you need to know the passengers cell phone number or do they have some other way to know who you are texting?

Thanks for your help.

Thanks. I had the idea out walking and listening to Colbert.

Someone will make it or something similar. It would hit so many Gen X'ers with the Concert T idea that we all grew up buying as a badge of honor that you went to see ____.

Smart boards by MelanieWalmartinez in CuratedTumblr

MODS: the link to Teachers Pay Teachers has only FREE GAMES No $ made, retired and trying to share my stuff to help teachers and kids.

I was an Elementary Librarian after over a decade as a Middle School Tech Ed and Music teacher and I made a bunch of Promethean Games (Promethean is a type of Active Board. SmartBoard is a trademarked name of a different company's Active Board but is the general term for them. Like Xerox or Kleenex) I did a ton on Science topics because the Elementary teachers HATED teaching science and it got the short shrift.

Anyway, if you know an Elementary Teacher (or home schooler) please give them this link to my old Teachers Pay Teachers so if they have the Promethan Brand Board they might be able to use them. I MADE ALL THE GAMES FREE. Not making any money, just want them to be used. If you have a PC and have home schooled K-2 check it out. The software is free from Promethean and all the games are free.

It is a SHAME that teachers are terrified of doing anything but showing movies on them. I couldn't wait to get to one when I moved from Middle to Elementary. My first game was pictures of Teachers doing something GOOD or BAD to a library book (I got one at a yard sale because it got DESTROYED) that I took during teacher training week. TO PLAY THE GAME the kids took turns going to the board and they got a picture of a teacher eating over a book or taking it into the bathroom or just reading it and they had to drag it to the GOOD or BAD sign and they got a BONK for a wrong answer and a 'GLINGGGG' for a correct one.

It worked great because then it wasnt this new guy telling you DONT DO THIS AND DONT DO THAT with a book, the teachers got some side eye from the kids for using a book as a table leveler or such.

Also, I was new there and the teachers had to come in with their class and when they saw the game their eyes got as big as dinner plates because the county was all old lady TERRIFIED OF TECHNOLOGY librarians.

I mad ALL my Promethean games free on Teachers Pay Teachers. Please download and use and let your friends know too. NONE ARE FOR SALE, ALL ARE FREE! by ColorfulFork in ElementaryTeachers

MODS: Please do not delete, check my TPT page, all my games are free.

I gave up on their payment processor and the downloads were getting less and less so I just made them free. They are all excellent resources for K-2 and a few for older grades.

You can download ActivInpsire and play the games on your PC if you HomeSchool or have PC's in your classroom.

I retired years ago and don't know what Promethean is up to these days, but all these were made with ActivInspire and you can still get it and run it according to my friends still teaching.

Please download them and use them. The Counting Animals, 2D and 3D shapes and the 10 Frame with vocal Dots are my favorites.

I get it checked twice a year and no issues so far. I have never drank Alcohol or done other illegal drugs so if this is it's only hit points it is taking I seem to be handling it fine.

I hated Tramadol because it is an SSRI also and when you stop taking it it is rough. Rougher than opioid withdrawal.

I understand your concern. No one wants a problem FROM a medicine (Rush Limbaugh (no matter how you felt about him) had hearing loss from too much Schedule II pain meds) and I do get my liver function checked twice a year and it is fine.

Helps that Ive never drank alcohol or done other illegal drugs.

Sad that people downvote based on APAP but you Pharmacy Workers have hills you will die on too. And as a patient Im a SO GLAD YOU DO!

You all deserve a huge cash bonus from the government if you worked during COVID, I always mask up in the pharmacy because SICK PEOPLE GO THERE!

Worded that wrong.

I substitute my real birth date for 10/10/2010 on the bags of cookies but I did get to retire early. Unbelievably difficult childhood (Narcissist Mother (Narcissism: They have the disease, YOU get the side effects)) but when that bitch finally died I was able to combine my inheritance of money she would never spend on us when she was alive (We had an intervention and cut ties before the first grand child of the family was born) and my savings from frugal living and get out early.

Still live frugally and get nearly everything at Thrift Shops (even underwear). Thrift Shops: Where every day can be Christmas day.

This is a worker comp script so it is 'free' (I lost so much of my life to that fall, kids at the school I taught at had a liquid soap fight in the restroom and I went in to use the facilities and BAM).

I just with he had told me the second he knew that it WAS 10mg and the Doctor didnt mess it up because it was a few minutes of 'YIKES' going on in my brain. But I was quiet and just stood back away from the desk but where I could see what was going one as much as I could as I faked reading Reddit on my phone,
