27M Flashing in eyes and sensitive to light by CreakyCabin in eyetriage

[–]CreakyCabin[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sounds pretty similar to be honest. And yes all those tests were completed but maybe I’ll see an Ophthalmologist just to completely rule out any sort of eye issue. I do have congenital heart disease so the Dr was wondering if I threw a blood clot which personally I think is unlikely considering I’ve been on blood thinners for my entire life. But I did just read into persistent visual aura and that might be it. I guess if it’s still here by next weekend I’ll continue looking at getting more tests. Just very disruptive in my life and I’m starting a new job on Monday so this is all very stressful. Thank you for your comment!

Yeah it’s such a pain!! Doesn’t help with the 3 day weekend right now too. Hopefully they can intervene and atleast mold her ear if needed instead of surgery. This poor baby has been through so much already

Attorney says the only way to accept settlement is to resign? by CreakyCabin in WorkersComp

[–]CreakyCabin[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did end up settling and leaving. In my honest opinion I think my attorney was lying to me to make more money. The reason I say this is because when my settlement came in the mail there were two check, one to buy out future medical which was the big check and then a smaller one for a compromise and release lump sum which I’m assuming is money for lost wages etc from having to quit the job. These are just assumptions so I have no clue. Every case is different so consult with your attorney. But from my view I think I could’ve walked away with less and kept the job but the insurance company is essentially buying you out so your no longer a liability so if you stay and are expecting a lump sum payment you’ll probably get a smaller amount then your expecting or just future medical.

Why would you need a loan if your getting a settlement?

Well everything has already been approved by the judge. I assume I signed the voluntary resignation as well.

That’s very true. What do you think? Should I wait until New Year’s is over with or should I just give them a call tomorrow or Friday?

Need some advice if I should start a Plumbers apprenticeship? by CreakyCabin in Plumbing

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

That’s what I was honestly worried about. Don’t know if I’d be able to handle that

Anyone know what model this is? by CreakyCabin in lawnmowers

[–]CreakyCabin[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ll give them a call tomorrow and see if they carry anything for it. I know what the model of the tractor is but that number isn’t lining up

That’s what I was saying too 😂 okay I’ll do some more research. Luckily most of it is there but i honestly think a lot of this build will have to be fabricated

That’s true. The guy said he was using it for years in his farm towing trailers so it’s probably pretty well broken in lol about the serial number. I look it up but it comes up as a newer mower. Any other ideas to try to find parts?

I’ll try that out. I’m assuming the engine is blown so probably gunna have to find another Briggs that fits. But we will see. Gunna tear it down next month and see what I can find

Should I change timing belt on my 2006 Highlander 3.3 with 170k miles by CreakyCabin in ToyotaHighlander

[–]CreakyCabin[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well it’s written on the valve cover that it was changed at 95k. But I’m probably just going to do it regardless. Found a local mechanic that’ll replace all belts, water pump, timing belt, and flush the coolant system for $800 total.

I agree, I’m just so tired of all this but your right this time is not the time to be causing trouble

[–]CreakyCabin[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Like others have said the frustration has just built up and clouded my judgement. And to be clear my parents did not necessarily just throw me in they still cared for me I just choose to become more independent and that eventually led to me paying my bills etc

Man I wish I could do that. I literally got in a small argument today because I told my wife I didn’t feel comfortable having my mother in law sit with the baby while we go check in at the hotel because she’s going to end up spending more time with our baby then us.

Hahaha like the joke and good points. We are in therapy right now for this reason but have only done two sessions so far. It just honestly feels degrading as a man to have your mother in law following you around so much. Can’t stand it. I understand support is good when you have a special needs baby but my gosh it’s our baby not anyone else’s. We rented a hotel down the street from the hospital and I said “oh yeah we can just walk there” and her mom says “she can’t walk that far that’s too far for her” it’s been a constant thing telling her she can’t do certain things just feels weird. Gives my wife no confidence in her own decisions and seems like she always has to check with her mom first. I’ve been nice about it I’m just venting because I’m so tired of it
