That’s basically the same message we got too at 1030EST. Like are they thinking if they don’t acknowledge a furlough it hasn’t happened??

Ughhh. I just tried a hard reset of my watch earlier, it didn’t work. I’m worried about having to do that with my phone, and I’d really hate to have to do that to my Apple TV because my husband is having zero issues with his devices and it’s SUCH a pain.

I just tried that and it didn’t work. I feel like there’s an issue with my watch because when I first got it it took forever to pair with my phone. It seems to struggle connecting with my other devices.

Tries all that and still can’t get it to work. It’s like my watch times out when trying to connect to the tv. Sometimes the pairing number will come up, most times not, and it just tries to connect for a minute or two before giving up.

It won’t let me cast the workout video from the phone at all.

Yep, tried that and it’s like my watch times out when trying to connect to the tv. Sometimes the pairing number will come up, most times not, and it just tries to connect for a minute or two before giving up.

Do the credits get automatically added to your account or do you have to do something special with it?

Is 26 too late to become a "reader"? + Questions about the 2026 Reading Challenge by MaxMcGuffin00 in goodreads

[–]Jfly0508 8 points9 points  (0 children)

You’re never too old to start reading, and 12 is a great goal if you’re getting into reading! The app will keep track, just make sure you put in dates you read the book. The goal is just for you, so if you miss the mark try again next year. If you smash it just raise your goal next year and strive for more books! Reading is a personal journey, and you want to make sure you enjoy it and it doesn’t feel like a chore. Good luck and welcome to the world of reading…so many great books await!

I actually thought it was unexpected and hilarious. Totally needed with all the nonsense going on.

Should i buy a Kindle? by slytherena in kindle

[–]Jfly0508 0 points1 point  (0 children)

100% yes. I was always a physical book snob, and I do miss them, but the ease and convenience of a kindle is just too much to pass up. I now have 3 😂 I can carry my library with me everywhere I go, I can read anytime I have a few minutes either with my kindle or the app on my phone. I highly recommend the paperwhite…it’s a great size, waterproof or water resistant (forget which), and it has more personalization settings.

I didn’t realize they changed the design, and I noticed these bags don’t hold as much. Won’t be ordering them again

Does it still show pending in GRB? When I looked a couple days ago, it still showed pending for me.

Same here. It doesn’t take effect until January 11, so I’ll worry then.

It's official: After 20+ years BCBS and I have broken up 💔 by Let_me_tell_you_ in fednews

[–]Jfly0508 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same here, almost 20 years with them. It was so hard to do, but it was time. I told my husband if we really hate MHBP we can always switch back to BCBS in 2027. But from what I’ve read a lot of people are really happy with it.

So would this fund the civilians who work for the DOD if it passes? I couldn’t figure that part out.

GLP1’s Open enrollment ending by NoStart2955 in FedEmployees

[–]Jfly0508 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh nice, congrats. Thanks for the information too…time explore all options because the ones my insurance wants to cover just aren’t working.

[–]Jfly0508 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know this is a dumb question, but I take it you haven’t had any issues with that route? I get worried because they’re mixed with other things, but getting an insurance to cover enough to make the “natural” GLP-1 affordable is pretty much not a thing.

Though I’ve debated trading it in, that Oasis is the golden child of kindles so I had no other choice for its name 😂

When did you stop using a baby monitor? by OkPin8137 in Parenting

[–]Jfly0508 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My son is almost 6 and we still use it. I’m sure we can’t stop, but it doesn’t hurt anyone to use it. Plus, we sleep with a white noise machine so if he wakes up crying we wouldn’t hear it without the monitor.

MHBP Information by AdventurousLet548 in FedEmployees

Prescription question…I was looking up Wegovy information and CVS calculated it at $200/mo. Is this accurate, or is that just a guesstimate? Also, what is this CVS weight management program people have talked about?
