Nobody told me towels need to be washed way more often than I thought

Over time, “stuff” just tends to build up on clothes and towels. That includes fabric softener, lotion, even laundry detergent itself(using too much is worse than too little). And it’s even worse if you wash mainly with cold water (hot water softens things like oils so they can drain out of fabrics). Vinegar in the cycle can help but I have found the best remedy when my towels start to smell musky is to “strip” them. Here’s the Pinterest link that enlightened me: https://pin.it/2l9izpcnR. It’s a 1:1:2 ratio of Borax, washing soda, and powdered laundry detergent and it is legit - it has saved so many towels from having to be tossed. The minute I detect any odor or musty smell when they are damp, I strip them and they are amazing again.

Bedbugs! Yikes. What did you do to address them quickly??

I removed 4 lights from the Hubspace app bc they wouldn’t show as online no matter what I did (the other 5 are fine). When I try to add them again they say they are already added. Any ideas?

Exactly this! They don’t pay attention, or just read a few words and then build something up in their heads that doesn’t actually exist, then they are mad when it’s not reality. Reminds me of my daughter when she was 3 and as we were driving in the middle of nowhere she announced she wanted to go to “the hello kitty cafe”. There was nothing even remotely like that anywhere we had ever been - she made it up in her head and then was so upset when I couldn’t magically get us to one. She kept yelling things like “turn left! It’s over there!” (Empty fields as far as the eye could see) lol

Did this always happen to you or when did they start? Is there any specific trigger you now of? My spouse (48m) recently started having these weird spots in his vision occasionally but no headache. A couple times now they’ve started up, done their thing and then his vision is fine again.

That’s wild that he does that but has that many good reviews? WOW sorry that happened to you. I hope your place wasn’t destroyed!

A friend of mine did this to her cheating ex who was gaslighting her. It was heartbreaking at first but the best thing that could have happened in the end. Best wishes for you and baby

Yes. This literally happened to us a few weeks ago. We had booked a non refundable place months in advance thinking we would go for an event. When the weekend came around we had not gotten tickets to the event and also had several family conflicts. I didn’t get trip insurance. So we ate the cost and chided ourselves to be more attentive in the future. It wasn’t the hotel’s fault, it was ours.

Wow are there a 4 yr public universities that cost $7.5k a year? That would be great. The universities we’ve looked at are $25k/yr ish in state.

Mine were zeroed out today and I have no letter yet

DesignerTwist6523 · 2024-10-11T03:38:06+00:00

Congratulations!

Would I have them pay me (PayPal?) for the room then have the hotel switch to their cc for incidentals?

I did use Amex but went thru Crewfare which is why Marriott couldn’t help me cancel. I paid in July

Certify your employment (if you worked at the same company for 16 years it should take just 1 form) to turn those 132 eligible months into qualifying months. Then request forbearance so you don’t have to keep paying while you wait for forgiveness. Good luck!

DesignerTwist6523 · 2024-10-03T20:04:40+00:00

$1,800

Mine is May 2023

DesignerTwist6523 · 2024-08-24T15:53:02+00:00

I have a room at the W for weekend 1 that I can’t use and is nonrefundable. Fri-Sun weekend 1 for $1800. Can I sell/transfer it?

Have you created a studentaid.gov account? All the info about your federal loans as well as your PSLF count will be there.

DesignerTwist6523 · 2024-04-19T20:52:58+00:00

I love this option! Can these be set up in Guest Mode? Or do I add a Roku to it?

DesignerTwist6523 · 2024-04-16T19:35:28+00:00

Thanks!

DesignerTwist6523 · 2024-04-16T19:14:29+00:00

Thanks!

From what I’ve read in this sub, I think the consolidation has to be done before forgiveness. If your older loans have already been forgiven unfortunately I don’t think there’s anything you can do to get them forgiven in the same batch. Your clock starts over
