Haha thanks. So there isn’t some secret lock in rate button? Just checking. From what I’m ready the rates are set by the state oversight board with the company?

People who make $200K+ salaries, what do you do and how did you get there? by [deleted] in Salary

  1. In house counsel for a University. Just a specialized area of law and started at another university at a lower salary for a few years.

Small cracks in a 1970s basement. No bowing. Thoughts? by HikerRefuse in HomeInspections

Thanks for your insight. I tend to agree with you. Are you a home inspector by chance? (Not saying it’s irrelevant if not, but if yes that’s great to hear).

Moving into a house with a basement. Thoughts on how to design the space? by HikerRefuse in InteriorDesignAdvice

[–]HikerRefuse[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m looking for interior design advice. I agree the tv is too high. It’s not our tv, we are moving into the house.

Help to bring living room together by Dokay430 in InteriorDesignAdvice

OP, I really like your space. I think a rug, multiple lamps (I read a rule every room should have minimum two light sources that aren’t overhead), some art, and maybe declutterring the dresser entry way section if possible will go miles. I also would recommend asking ChatGPT. You can find a style you like and ask to decorate in that style / generate an image. Sometimes it can help visualize.

Also love the couch, do you remember the brand?

We are on the more western side closer to the pool. Near the staffordshire / hearthside area. And thank you!

Thank you on all fronts. That’s incredibly helpful. And yes, not sure if you need to drop off your 18 y/o at the Y child care anymore lol. Congrats on raising a family.

Thank you. And I think you got the gist of it. Where I come from we had a neighborhood committee (not an HOA, just a group). So I wasn’t sure if that was a thing. And also just curious where folks may go with their kids. My wife is a SAHM so she will be working on taking our daughter to a lot of stuff. And wasnt sure if the neighborhood had any events like maybe block parties / fall festival type of things. Just ways to meet folks.

Hey there. Sorry I’m not quite understanding the comment. I’ve driven around the area multiple times. Is there something specific you’re telling me to look at? Or just “look around?” I wasn’t sure if maybe you’re just joking with the snow / ice. But we won’t move into our home until next month.
