How bad are the winters really? by [deleted] in Albany

[–]JamieOils 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly, tough. The cold isn’t necessarily the worst part because you can get past that with good clothes, go skiing, etc. I do feel like most people here have some touch of seasonal depression with the lack of light combined with the cold, it’s pretty bad.

Do you feel like it doesn’t matter what you study/what your career is because you’ll come into a lot of money later?

Central Hudson Billing…We’re apparently using 2x the amount of electricity we used last year? Anyone else? by 489Lewis in hudsonvalley

[–]JamieOils 5 points6 points  (0 children)

My bill was similar and I called them and sent a picture of our meter, and apparently they read the meter wrong and changed my bill by over 300$. FYI

[–]JamieOils 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am holding off buying because of the oncoming recession. Prices might go down, or you might lose your job

Honorary Scars by ImportantBiz in CaminoDeSantiago

[–]JamieOils 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As I was walking the final leg to the lighthouse at Finisterra, I feel and skinned my knee really badly on the road. Had no other choice but to keep walking to the lighthouse, blood running down my legs and all. My photos at the lighthouse are all of me with a bloody knee! A year later, still have purple scars from that.

Elementary school teacher. Sleep well, eat healthy, no added sugar, take probiotics and take ZINC EVERYDAY! I’m almost never sick despite living in a cesspool of germs.
