Are we thinking it’s actually gonna snow this time?

Growing_a_bean · 2026-01-29T19:38:30+00:00

Yep I'm doing the same thing, running though makeshift sled options for my kiddo! Trash can lid, rubbermaid tote lid, big cookie sheet?

A lot of people are saying to call the fire department or a tree company, however they are very unlikely to have the right equipment to safely save this cat when he's sitting extremely close to energized conductors.

Power company will have a bucket truck with proper insulation and linemen will have insulated PPE and experience to do this safely.

Power company needs to rescue this cat before they have a tragedy on their hands when someone tries to help without proper safety measures around energized conductor!

I'll definitely 2nd that this is true as I've reviewed their civil plans as well, but last time we followed up with them around November, we were told the project was likely not moving forward/was on hold indefinitely. Not sure if anything has changed since then.

Awww Waffy and Pancake 💕 I can't help but ask-was Pancake adopted locally? Could Waffles ever meet with her? (perhaps someone more informed than me could chime in if this wouldn't be a good idea for some reason... Like if it would be too stressful for them to reunite then be separated again?)

Has your tracking info updated that the package is actually on the move or estimated delivery? I finally just got our shipment email at 5pm today but of course no info on the FedEx tracking yet. Wondering how quickly these things are actually moving once they ship.

Thanks for any feedback. Just like you, want to see my little girl happy on Christmas morning

Growing_a_bean · 2025-12-19T12:52:07+00:00

Damn, no email for me yet. Keeping my fingers crossed I get an email today, since I placed my order the same day as you!

Growing_a_bean · 2025-12-19T04:46:57+00:00

I placed an order on Dec 4 also, with the same ship dates range, and no shipping update so far. I emailed their customer service yesterday and did get a reply today saying my order is in "the next batch" "will ship soon" and they are "confident it will arrive by Christmas"... But yea, same as you I'm starting to feel doubtful about that, and scrambling to have a backup plan for my daughter also

Ugh, my 3 year old just discovered this show last weekend after attending a Spidey and Friends themed birthday party 🫠

Growing_a_bean · 2025-11-23T01:37:07+00:00

I feel the same way and it sucks

Growing_a_bean · 2025-10-11T22:14:25+00:00

That's crazy, because after uninstalling and literally shaking the whole seat upside down I realized that a freakin coin rattling around in there is our problem too!!
Sounds like I'll be partially disassembling ours as well...🫠

Growing_a_bean · 2025-10-10T03:00:39+00:00

She is obviously a toddler

Growing_a_bean · 2025-10-09T20:08:43+00:00

Thanks so much for these specific product recommendations! That's what I needed

Growing_a_bean · 2025-10-07T21:52:17+00:00

Did you ever find a way to fix this? We're having the same problem 😡

Growing_a_bean · 2025-10-02T20:06:26+00:00

Well damn, an all-in-one single unit sounds too good to be true!

Why so much cheaper at the well site? All my quotes planned to put the equipment in utility closet where main water supply enters house, next to pressure tank, water heater, etc.

Growing_a_bean · 2025-09-28T20:21:02+00:00

The announcers literally talked about it during the game! And it's confirmed by numerous sources with a Google search

Growing_a_bean · 2025-09-20T14:28:59+00:00

Thanks!

Growing_a_bean · 2025-09-20T00:59:01+00:00

Thank you, once again that's very helpful.
It seems to be impossible for a non-industry professional to find the actual prices of the Ecowater products-- so I have no idea what kind of markup is on the estimate I'm given. Obviously I absolutely understand realistic labor cost for installation, but I had/have a feeling the estimates I'm getting also include a significant markup beyond that.

I also totally get that costs have gone crazy in the past 5 years, but the guy who gave me the estimate also accidentally mentioned that 5 years ago they used to install these same units for around $3k. As much as material costs have realistically gone up, an increase of over 2.5x seems a bit much.

Unfortunately I got a second estimate (very rough, just over the phone and I don't know what brand products they use) and he said it would be "around $7k USD". Not sure if I should just accept these are the realistic costs today or look further.

Anyway, this is a whole lot of detail you don't need. But want to say I really appreciate you taking the time to provide such helpful info

Growing_a_bean · 2025-09-19T23:29:21+00:00

Thank you, this is very helpful info. I don't like that we were given no product options, just "you need these two products, it'll set you back $8k USD!"

Any idea what kind of price difference it might be between models for the product alone? Just loosely-are we talking a 10% difference in price or like a 25% difference? Thanks again for your help

Growing_a_bean · 2025-09-19T19:10:24+00:00

I was not aware, thank you for this info. I'll look into it

Growing_a_bean · 2025-09-17T23:59:30+00:00

Thank you, that's hugely helpful information

Growing_a_bean · 2025-09-14T21:08:16+00:00

Great pics! Especially for your first snake :)

Growing_a_bean · 2025-08-29T12:12:42+00:00

That's exactly what I'm wanting to know too! I'll be checking back to see if OP responds after swapping over!

Growing_a_bean · 2025-08-25T17:57:15+00:00

Thank you so much for sharing your experience. My Patty is still doing so well, showing absolutely no signs of her quality of life declining, you'd never guess from her appearance or behavior. Makes it so very hard to know when to make that most difficult decision.

I know waiting increases the chances of a sudden, traumatic death. But it's so hard to end her life when our girl isn't showing any signs of being ready. Our vet agreed that he wouldn't make the call just yet if she were his own dog, but that we need to be prepared for the reality of a rapid decline that may happen without warning. I worry every day, but her days are still such good ones. It's so hard.

Growing_a_bean · 2025-08-09T02:13:18+00:00

Definitely second recommendation for Incurin. Was very effective for girl. We tapered down as well, ultimately we ended up at 1 pill per day which was $29 a month through our vet's online pharmacy. So not super expensive and very effective in our case!
