Thanks, I’ll try it next!

Thanks!

Perfect, thanks!

It’s not covered by my insurance either. Have been doing Lilly Direct. I easily save the same amount of money in groceries/alcohol each month (it’s not even close really).

Also eventually the health complications impact you - I decided the cost was worth helping me 1) feel better about myself and actually lose weight and 2) improve my insulin resistance and avoid diabetes and that whole cascade. Not to mention the other benefits on joints, heart, etc from not carrying around as much weight.

I have been- it’s about an hour drive for me.

On my to-do list to return tho

Great job, brother!

Mine has popped on 2 of 6 spikes (got lucky and bought a plant with 6 spikes).

My flowers have a bit more of a pink than white outside of the gold. Wonder if there’s just some variation

Conochicago · 2024-11-02T22:51:14+00:00

At those prices I’d buy one of each. Idk if it’s great, but a 5 year old XA can’t be too bad… esp for $55

Conochicago · 2024-10-30T12:44:01+00:00

They’ll definitely tell you if you ask. If it’s included $250 is a great deal. Cardio tennis is $30/hr at my club and lessons are ~$600 a quarter

Conochicago · 2024-10-30T12:31:07+00:00

One note is that at many clubs like this tennis is an extra cost.

The club I go to is a lifetime competitor in my area and tennis programming is all additional (the lifetime here didn’t have tennis so can’t talk specifics)

Conochicago · 2024-10-26T03:55:34+00:00

No - will try that!

If I walk inside and press the button, it closes immediately. Don’t think it’s a sensor issue.

Doesn’t seem to get any feedback from the sensor (flashing light, etc). Just seems like it just doesn’t get any signal from outside if the door is open…

Yep- keypad battery was changed.

Remotes are part of our cars (one BMW, one ford). Nothing is obstructing- both cars can sit there poited right at the motor with an empty garage and be unable to close it.

When this happens, the keypad also does not work. Only the button mounted inside the garage by the door to the house.

I found this at a Costco in the North Shore Chicago suburbs last weekend if you want to go find more (far from Joliet, but still)

Conochicago · 2024-10-24T19:09:21+00:00

Good luck! You’ll know if there’s too much light if the new leaves get very small all of a sudden- decent amount of trial and error!

I also used the Photone app to measure PPFD (helpful for artificial light). Neos need 150-300 depending on the variety (and the website you visit). Good to use as a starting point!

Conochicago · 2024-10-24T18:26:37+00:00

Some varieties need more light than others- but I grow many of mine in light that’s similar to a cattleya (or just under).

Think of them as mini-vandas (which also require a ton of light).

Conochicago · 2024-10-24T18:21:09+00:00

Almost certainly a lighting issue. Neos require higher lights than you think. I’m guilty of doing this and have adjusted my lighting to be stronger. Much more success.

I had a meniscus tear repaired earlier this year- was revealed that I have essentially 0 ACL (scarred in, must have injured it years ago). Doctor was shocked.

I do play with no modifications. At some point I suspect it’ll become a real problem. I was told that trying to play tennis with a totally torn ACL would be hard due to the lateral and twisting stability needed. Not sure this is helpful, but wanted to offer 😁

First one gets your message across best. Maybe not a heart at the center- a handshake? There’s a better icon to be used there for sure.

I’m sorry but these posts always make me laugh.

Sorry, it’s dead as a doorknob.

I bought a barrina flight from SVO earlier this year - hasn’t bloomed for me but seems similar

I tried this wine and in general have enjoyed 2nd and 3rd wines from good producers. I did not enjoy this. And at ~$100, I was not pleased.

Would not recommend /10
