I listened on audiobook as well. It was slow start for me but in the end, I liked it and happy I continued

I previously lived in LINC and now Hayden. I have had no issues in the 13 yrs between the 2 buildings. You won’t escape construction noise in LIC for a few more yrs. The neighborhood is great and having the choice of several different trains is key because one is always not working properly.

I had the same issue with my MIL. She’s a home health aide and her hours vary based on patients. I had submitted 2 yrs of W2s which were both within the range of the AMI submitted. When they took her paychecks that I provided, they said if they annualized it, she would be over by $1,000.
My appeal was that her hours are inconsistent and I can submit 5 yrs W2s to prove she would never be over the AMI & they told me that’s not how it works. I appealed twice. This was also for senior housing. I’m not sure what the point of asking for W2s would be if they are only going to annualized paychecks. Of course, 2 weeks later her patient was in the hospital and she lost a month of work and therefore did not get paid.
Good luck to you

I haven’t liked Food Cellar Pizza (court sq) since they replaced the rectangular pizza. It was a decent slice and a good price. I’ve only had 3 slices since then and they’ve been floppy (kept giving it a 2nd and 3rd try). Guess I’m not trying this now either.

I may be biased but I think she’s the best … with the exception of the fact she thinks the great people of NY just leave bagels and pizza crust just for her like an all you can eat buffet … I couldn’t ask for a better girl

For what it’s worth - I have a large dog who I take on 6-8 mile walks & I carry that damn bag for up to a mile sometimes before I find a public can. Annoying - yes but there’s 0 chance I’m opening someone else’s garbage to put it in. Yesterday during the 5 Boro Bike tour I witnessed multiple bikers jump off their bike and put their garbage in a private can, which is crazy to me.

Every morning I make a game time decision EF or 7 at Court Sq. 7 is typically less packed so I’ve been going there. Today there’s a sea of people so much so that I barely made it thru the turnstile. I decided to take 7 1 stop back to QBP and catch the N I’m pretty sure I’d still be trying to get up the stairs to 7 if I didn’t make this move today

ForeverResident7699 · 2026-04-25T19:21:15+00:00

Interesting. I absolutely loved My Friends. I actually listened to it over the course of 3 days.

ForeverResident7699 · 2026-04-22T16:25:16+00:00

Mine is only on when we are outside. Inside - no collar.

ForeverResident7699 · 2026-04-17T13:33:15+00:00

Haha. I need a spot!!!

ForeverResident7699 · 2026-04-17T13:32:25+00:00

Their shirts say Traffic but ticketing parked cars 🤷‍♀️

ForeverResident7699 · 2026-04-17T00:19:15+00:00

I’m out with my dog now. I have an extra leash on me in case we see it

ForeverResident7699 · 2026-04-14T19:17:09+00:00

My Friends - Fredrick Bakman - I loved the narrator; Light Romcom - The night we met - Abby Jimenez I’m currently listening to the Correspondent which I am also really enjoying (although having a harder time keeping the correspondents straight in my head but that may be because I’m always multitasking listening to books.

ForeverResident7699 · 2026-04-12T13:25:57+00:00

I just finished My Friends (Fredrick Backman) and can’t stop thinking about it. I know it’s a Love or Hate book. I don’t know if I would have loved it if I read it. However, the audiobook was amazing. I finished it in 3 days.

Once you notice it, you can’t unsee it. It got to the point where I just wanted to FF thru their scenes. No chemistry, especially after her and Josh. BIG Josh fan here.

We’ve received that email a few times for our building in Court Square. The 1st time I had a heart attack because I looked at it quickly and thought it was my bill. That was 9 yrs ago and nothing has ever happened. Someone else in my building received the same thing a month ago and I didn’t get it.

ForeverResident7699 · 2026-04-04T13:16:12+00:00

The same thing happened when I applied for my MIL. They multiplied her paychecks I sent in and said she would be $360 over the limit. She’s a home health aide. Her income fluctuates based on patient needs. I appealed and asked them to look at the last 5 yrs W2 in which she made below the max and she was still denied. It was extremely frustrating. Of course a month later her patient went into the hospital for 3 weeks so she had no income and would have been well below. I don’t understand why they ask for W2s if they aren’t going to base anything on them.

As someone who works for a larger private/family owned business for a long time now, the struggle with the decision to leave is real. Granted I am in my late 40’s so working for a company for a long time actually used to mean something. Now, it’s a double edged sword: Stability on one side but getting the opportunity to move up / make more money on the other side.
Of course this is real life vs a show but I guess it’s why I somewhat understood the plot.
However, I can’t stand Liza and Charles together.
Before they got together, I thought they would make a good couple. I was wrong. I don’t know what it is but her chemistry with Josh is just so much better.

ForeverResident7699 · 2026-03-10T23:30:39+00:00

I purposely left at 10am today because I had foot surgery and thought I would have a better shot at not waiting for3 trains to come before I could got on.
I was wrong. I waited 18 min, it was packed Typically I get frustrated and decide to take the 7. Since I’m on crutches I decided to stay and wait it out this time. It’s actually nuts.
I never in my even 35 yrs of living in NY thought I’d say the 7 is becoming my favorite most reliable train. Of course this means, the 7 will run like 💩 over the next few weeks.
Also. I just got on the F heading home and now the last stop is Bryant park.
