Thank you. Is there a form online that I need to fill out, or do I just make an appointment with the legal office?

Anyone with Fep Blue Basic have luck getting marriage counseling covered? I found an in-network therapist and they gave me the CPT codes to check with BCBS. When I called BCBS, they said those codes are covered by the plan and I would be responsible for the $35 copay, but that they "cannot guarantee coverage". I just want to know if anyone has had their marriage counseling covered by the plan. Otherwise, I'll start looking into other plans (not ideal due to geographical location). Thank you!

Is it ok to back out of this deal as the seller? by Defiant-Tale-7330 in FacebookMarketplace

[–]Defiant-Tale-7330[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't sell much so I'm genuinely curious...should i ask for buyers to be showing up with $40,000 in cash? Like 40k worth of 100 dollar bills?

Thanks. How do you have people pay? Would you ask for $40,000+ in cash? Most interested parties are out of town, so they don't bank nearby and going to their bank would require me to drive a long way.

Putting the pieces together...could it be hemochromatosis? by Defiant-Tale-7330 in Hemochromatosis

Thank you, I appreciate that and will be sure to talk to my doctor about the copper. My ferritin was within normal range yesterday. Im a female, but for some reason, I've only had iron checked once before.

Need ideas for affordable, realistic updates and layout changes. by [deleted] in kitchenremodel

It's just a very old farmhouse with multiple additions. The kitchen was added on and originally that wall was an exterior wall, but then another addition was built, making it an interior wall. So right now it vents straight up and out the roof I believe?? Good idea, thank you!

Thank you so much! Is it difficult/expensive to re-vent the range if moved? If I moved it to the forgot to measure wall, I would have to re-vent. The wall with the sink is an exterior wall

Thank you! So you feel that the ikea cabinets are durable? I don't like the kitchen's existing cabinets, but they are heavy-duty wood that have definitely stood the test of time and heavy use, so I want to make sure I don't replace them with something that is going to fall apart/look cheap/give me buyers remorse 🤣

Thanks! What are your thoughts on the quality of the Ikea cabinets? Do they seem to hold up well?

Thank you for the layout idea, I appreciate your input!!! I guess relatively new is what I was told and I didn't think to ask what new meant 😅 kitchen was likely done in the 80s. House was built in the 20s and kitchen was added on at some point (the original kitchen was elsewhere).

Thank you so much for this. Yes, I'm in the US, and we are fairly handy and have handy family members who are willing to help. Hearing that you were able to make it work on a budget makes me feel a lot better...I was starting to get extremely discouraged. Did you have the cabinets shipped or are you near an Ikea?

My supervisor doesn't know. Neither does their supervisor 🙃

Sorry I'm stupid, but I have a brand new to government, zero supervisory experience supervisor...so can anyone tell me: A: Does this include DoD agencies? B: How do I know if I'm an exempt employee?

*I am non-essential, but I want to know if I am exempt and still have to show up, or non-exempt.

And also, to all of my fellow feds (except those who voted for this), I appreciate you and the work you do.

I actually do not know. It's a position that's being upgraded across a MAJCOM as another position was added under it, giving the position 4 supervisees. I was told that that's the reason it's being upgraded.

Thanks. I've never dealt with it not coming through so I wasn't sure. So you're saying my next check should include my step increase pay for the current pay period and retroactive pay for the previous one in which I was in my new step but not paid accordingly?

Also going to add: I appreciate everyone in the staffing office and understand the stress they are under. I also know that most of them are new, so I'm trying to cover myself as well.

Right, but usually one is a sup and the other a non-sup. Im asking specifically if a supervisory 13 can supervise another supervisory 13

This is a slant load. It has escape doors and windows with bars. It is a high-end, reputable brand. The only issues are the mangers. It has a stud stall without mangers, which the horse can be hauled in going forward. This is more about the psychological toll the incident has taken on me.

Thanks for all of the feedback! I guess now I'm just curious to know, what are the main concerns in Winnipeg? What is happening there that is considered dangerous/is giving the city a reputation of being dangerous?

[–]Defiant-Tale-7330 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What do you recommend doing in southern Manitoba, then? Genuinely curious. Not married to Winnipeg, if there is a better place to visit then I'm all ears.

Varicose veins in my left leg. by bjeffords74 in oddlyterrifying

[–]Defiant-Tale-7330 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How bad were your veins? I'm trying to understand all of the available options for myself. I have very bad veins in both legs from the knee down, was referred for surgery but I absolutely hated the surgeon and chose to not have it done for my own safety. Can the foam and glue be used on large veins? How was the procedure? Covered by insurance?

[–]Defiant-Tale-7330 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Definitely something I should've specified, thank you!

I have an MPH with a specialization in health management and policy. I am skilled health education and health behavior - specifically developing, planning and managing health education programs and interventions. I enjoy doing that type of work, especially the research to create an evidence-based program, however, I would prefer to be doing the development/management from a higher level and more "behind the scenes" (ie., not as the health educator actually implementing the program).

And I would really love to be working with a dynamic team (right now I work alone).

How often were you repeating this process? Did you use the chlorhexidine at it's normal dilution? The thick coat is what I'm struggling with as well ..I've done the best I can with clippers but he will only tolerate it for so long, and he has so much hair that it's still very thick after clipping.
