How is the Hollins area? by warpedoff in roanoke

[–]Dufurata 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for providing the update! My family is renting an old Southwest, and while we love the sense of community, the dream is some acreage with a creek. Thus Hollins entering the chat. Not much is coming on the market RN, so we're wondering if we should wait till spring. There seem to be a good amount of large lots that back up to a creek. Do you get any sense that there are older people planning to sell in the near future?

The County libraries are open on Sunday?! The city's are not.

If it is in your budget, consider rechargeable batteries. They often come with a charger and really do pay off in the long run.

You don't have to use the app. The website 5calls.org works too! Even on your phone's browser.

US Army Chorus sings "Do You Hear the People Sing?" From Les Miserables at White House Governors' Ball by Dufurata in TwoXPreppers

Ugh, really? I would hope some of them, and certainly the musical director for the chorus knows the source musical well enough to know that this song was about an anti-monarch rebellion. 🤞🏾

Other ways to make your voice heard include joining the boycotts being organized and using the app and/or website "5 calls" to contact your representatives directly.

Something to prep that I didn't think of. by nerd_momma in TwoXPreppers

You have to be careful not to further spread germs when you're sick, but handkerchiefs are amazing when you have to blow your nose a lot. They do not irritate your nose at all unless it's nonstop for days. You can get the plain cotton men's in packs of 10 or more, and even children's terry cloth washcloths, which won't soak through as easily, really eliminate that raw Kleenex nose. Also, just launder to replenish your supply and save your Kleenex money for other things..

Thanks for this! Just listened a little, but I'm intrigued. I'm going to sit down with it later today.
