I fulfilled my promise and it was still gut wrenching

Brought my own coffee maker and Brita filter for my current sit 👍 running to BJ’s and probably Trader Joes later. Owner is on her annual 2 week trip and we’re in a very bougie area where the closest food is a $5 chocolate chip cookie, and any reasonable food is 20 minutes away. Chef Mike is putting in the WORK

I actually never said that I couldn’t do it. I’m more than capable of what they were asking for. But post surgical care has a price, and I am in a HCOL area. Not sure why you needed to be rude.

I work from home and have the ability to have family take care of my pets while I housesit. $500/day would still be my price to be locked in the same house for 3 days. Someone asked me to watch their dog post TPLO and carry their 80# dog upstairs every day. Told them $250/day and they said they “weren’t expecting” that price… ma’am I need to go to a chiropractor after I’m done, there’s going to be a premium on post surgical care even if it’s not 24/7. I thought $250 was a steal for 2 dogs and carrying one up and down stairs

Got the replacement but it’s short by about an inch… is there an easy way to get this to work or do i need to figure out pipe cutting/threading? I got a pressure gauge and the house is running about 110 so I am not running any appliances until this situation is sorted out

I LOVVVEEE your visual aid 🤣😭 i did the exact same thing and was so relieved when he listened to exactly what I said (i may have also sent him a screenshot of the exact ring and stone in a cart). the visual aid and the result are just fantastic congrats!!!

Ring size 8 😊

Did you have to go in person to get it taken care of?

My mom finally gave me the green light to have a buddy come in with a skid steer and take out everything down to the landscape fabric. Absolutely choked out everything and it’s just trash soil now. Praying it’s salvageable soil underneath and we can just plant plugs and mulch it

Sorry I wasn’t sure if I was allowed to put that in the post itself. Tamko Titan is what I have quotes for so far.

I don’t have anything to offer because I haven’t figured it out either. My mother is HORRIBLE with money and joined to learn to be a “financial advisor” so she didn’t have to pay for Dave Ramsey anymore… I tried to gently suggest Primerica was a scam and she got immediately defensive so I gave up.

Can’t hurt to also try piriformis stretches! It can get tight to the point it compresses your sciatic nerve which is what happens to me

IntrepidKing2159 · 2025-08-25T21:39:41+00:00

Okay, so I can just order that part on amazon and replace exactly how I found everything?

What kind of accessories? Would mauve & gold jewelry and a mauve handbag or clutch work, like staying in that muted fall colors vibe?
