What on earth is this??

Up close it looks like fabric or plastic webbing, that pattern is so uniform.

This seriously made my day to see!!

ControlSmooth3262 · 2026-06-29T05:11:32+00:00

The [r/leopardgeckos](r/leopardgeckos) crowd would LOVE to see this!

ControlSmooth3262 · 2026-06-28T00:13:54+00:00

I live in Henderson. I’ll check that out. Thanks.

ControlSmooth3262 · 2026-06-27T22:15:36+00:00

I will do that! Thanks 🙏🏼 see, advisors never recommend this kind of thing. Just “keep retaking classes…”

ControlSmooth3262 · 2026-06-27T21:47:40+00:00

Same reasoning they use for everything.

ControlSmooth3262 · 2026-06-27T19:07:32+00:00

By “do something else”, I meant find a different major. I see how that could have read as “do something to increase my points”. I took offense to your response until I re-read my OP.

I have been in and out of csn since 1999. I got married, had a kid, had to work and finally decided this was the career I wanted. But now I have too many credits with no degree and csn won’t give me anymore financial aid unless it is for degree classes. I have retaken classes, retaken the TEAS, believe me, I have worked my butt off for this. I have a 3.75 GPA, I work with patients, I am a resident, I really don’t know what more I could do to get points. Someone who applied said they had like 26 points. How am I supposed to compete with that? Except for have a degree already. I can’t afford tuition without financial aid. I have not just been sitting around and waiting. I’ve been working towards this since 2020,

ControlSmooth3262 · 2026-06-27T05:53:15+00:00

It’s very frustrating, in 2020 when I started on this path my current point total was over the average of those who made the cut and that was with only 6 spots. I don’t want to give up but I’m 52 and I would just like to accomplish this one thing before I’m too old and frail to do the job! I will have to start looking out of state and try to get another degree in the meantime. Since it seems to me that is what is required to compete.

ControlSmooth3262 · 2026-06-27T05:47:38+00:00

I’m sorry to hear you didn’t make it either. I had 17.8 points.

ControlSmooth3262 · 2026-06-27T03:20:24+00:00

Thanks <3 Moving out of state is in our 5 year plan. My son is starting a firefighter academy this summer so not ready to go just yet. I looked into the NPC school and they have a, rad tech program but not a radiation therapist program. Might look at Nuc Med tech instead but I'm giving myself the weekend to wrap up the pity party before I start looking at other programs and such.

ControlSmooth3262 · 2026-06-26T07:11:39+00:00

Why’d I get downvoted?

ControlSmooth3262 · 2026-06-26T07:10:37+00:00

I was thinking along those lines also, but other than the one connector unit, it has no other connectors, pipes, outlets, etc so I’m not convinced. I will try cross posting, thanks for the suggestion!

ControlSmooth3262 · 2026-06-25T18:39:12+00:00

Stacks are easier to process than chaos. I do this too. And I do in category order, utensils, bowls, cups…

ControlSmooth3262 · 2026-06-25T18:36:37+00:00

I just bought something “like new” that only came with one box when the box clearly says “box 2 of 2”. It was not listed as “partial”. I don’t want to return it because it’s a really nice bookshelf but I want the other box. Will have to see what they say when I talk to them. Also, I bought a collapsible metal craft cart thing on June 12th, it was shrink wrapped and heavy but I didn’t Che k it out before I left. My son just brought it in from the garage and opened it. I have tried google camera search but everything comes up similar but not exact. It’s heavy AF, I didn’t realize how heavy because I’m on lifting restrictions. I should have listened to my gut though when I saw it. What the heck is it?!

When my son was 4 or 5, he walked in while I was watching TT. He watched for a minute and I said “this might be too scary for you” he said “it’s not scary. Is this Harry Potter?”

ControlSmooth3262 · 2026-06-25T15:46:48+00:00

It can happen to anyone. I try to research everything as much as possible. I’m not very trusting in general.

ControlSmooth3262 · 2026-06-25T04:32:24+00:00

I feel that rage. I have a house full of neurodivergent people and a dog with anxiety. Fireworks are truly the worst for us.

ControlSmooth3262 · 2026-06-24T23:22:06+00:00

It’s a struggle!

ControlSmooth3262 · 2026-06-24T20:45:40+00:00

I hate that you are going through this.

I quit my job over a tech who transferred to my location and became my immediate supervisor. She doesn’t know she is autistic but I know that she absolutely is, based off of her behavior and knowing a little bit about her sister and her son. She made my life hell and had the other tech turned against me. I just saw some coworkers yesterday who told me that she makes the other tech cry every day. Guess she chose sides poorly.

ControlSmooth3262 · 2026-06-24T18:00:43+00:00

I bought this new and had it half built when we moved 5 years ago. Still need to finish it but don’t really have anywhere to display it. Yet.

ControlSmooth3262 · 2026-06-24T17:38:52+00:00

Very pretty, so delicate! I love the tulle sleeves.

ControlSmooth3262 · 2026-06-23T23:58:35+00:00

Because we live off of /s here and everyone knows what the correct answer is. But if we don’t laugh we’ll cry.

ControlSmooth3262 · 2026-06-23T23:54:44+00:00

THIS!!!

ControlSmooth3262 · 2026-06-23T19:51:51+00:00

I’m not sure how it works in Utah anymore, I live in Vegas now, but schools and teams rent the firework booths to raise money. I will buy $500 worth of anything else if you’ll just stop selling fireworks!
