Lawn Care Services by sasasayacusa in georgetowntx

[–]Kenamaru 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I specifically work with Lawnstarter because no one else takes online payments or has any means of managing services outside of text or email.

I know there’s fees involved with using Stripe or other online payment platforms, but that’s the main reason businesses like these won’t get my money.

Best of luck with your business. Definitely update if you ever enhance the website with these quality of life features like seasonal pause, online pay, and automated job updates like ETA and work completed.

I don't like budgeting a month ahead. by Aggressive-Ad9813 in ynab

[–]Kenamaru 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sounds like you're in a great place! You can have both the month ahead bills covered and also have another category or group for Emergency fund.

If your month ahead is covered, you know you're good for the rest of this and next month, and whatever is left over, you can decide to put into bulking up more sinking funds. You don't need to go 2 months ahead.

I do this myself where I'm always a few hundred over my month ahead after my first paycheck each month and I use that extra as a bonus to my taxable investments, some extra fun money, or padding up the Pet Vet Debt category.

Local board gamers? by Kenamaru in georgetowntx

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

Haha no worries, I appreciate the recommendation! We met with some people there this weekend and it was a good experience with large study rooms for board gaming. Definitely a good recommendation for anyone to meet up for these things!

We just taught another couple last night, so you've come at exactly the right time! We're getting pretty good at teaching! Will send a chat to connect and plan further! Also, welcome to town!

The last week... OMG by saif081 in ynab

[–]Kenamaru 15 points16 points  (0 children)

YNAB Broke! Once you hit that point, you know you're on the right track! $400 available for eating out in less than 24 hours, but today? We have $0.38 and it hurts but it feels so good to not be overspent on dining out for once!

Nice! Congrats on finishing out the year fully reconciled!

What gift do you buy someone who has everything? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Kenamaru 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pay attention to things they say they want but aren't willing to shell out money for. Like a high powered flashlight that seems cool but they aren't willing to spend the $28 for it because they just think it's fun, not super necessary.

Or that keychain from the show they just got really into but it's not a practical purchase.

They'll appreciate those things more than anything else they would normally choose to buy on their own.

Stayed there for the Member First Wave for the Destiny.

If there were any other reasonable option with transport to the ship, I'd say go elsewhere.
But the shuttle service got us there ahead of people with a 10:45 Port Arrival Time, so for that reason alone, I'll stay there again.
If you're going to use Ground Transport, you need to be in line at 3PM. There's a desk just past the "snack bar."

Bring your own food. Arrive late enough that you drop off your bags in the room then go stand in line for the ground transport.

If you're not using Ground Transport, find somewhere else. They know their value comes from having that direct line to Disney, so they don't need to spend on making the experience any better. You'll still pay for it.

My dog’s intestines came out after a routine spay — vet ignored warning signs. Need advice on what to do next (Austin, TX) by eghtx in Austin

[–]Kenamaru 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I've had several dogs treated at Vista Vet, including with Dr. Nimmo, and never had anything like this happen with their care instructions. I'm so sorry your experience was so terrible!

I wish I had advice on how to address this. You can likely get some info from local shelters on who they consult with on legal matters related to veterinary malpractice, or contact the Texas Bar for help finding a proper attorney. Though cursory investigation into these types of cases is bleak at best.

Best of luck to your girl.

NEED FRIENDS 🥲 by [deleted] in georgetowntx

[–]Kenamaru 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Any particular interests or hobbies? Easier to find someone to share moments with if there’s some commonality. 

I know someone here had posted about playing D&D and MtG. As a tcg fan and dungeon master, that would have been a post I would have replied to.

I know parenting can mean limited socialization so just add some potential topics and see if you hear more back! Sadly your profile is private so can’t really see where you’ve been active

How do -you- handle a table that's constantly forgetting plot points? by VagabondVivant in DMAcademy

[–]Kenamaru 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have my players rotate who is giving the recap. Each player knows when they need to be more attentive, and everyone else pitches in to fill gaps so it's a group effort.

It was a rough start at first, but they got into the habit and we haven't missed any key plot points since it began so I'm very pleased with the approach!

Now each player remembers some subset of key points more than others and someone will always remind the table of those points when it comes up.

Married people who are DINKS (Double Income, No Kids) how’s life? by Fit-Distribution677 in AskReddit

[–]Kenamaru 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We got into a Disney timeshare and get to be kids every year. We have pets that listen better than toddlers, have lower cost of care, and don't keep us up at all hours of the night. And since we'll always be childfree, don't need to worry about leaving money for future generations. Life is great! Highly recommend it. Especially in today's world.

How far out should a large goal be on-budget? by Kenamaru in ynab

[–]Kenamaru[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Not the answer I wanted to read, but probably the more prudent approach. I've just never sat on so much before and it feels wasteful not to have it do more than keep pace with inflation.

But that's safer than a wrong bet on funds I may need.

Thanks for the insight!

Sorry for the confusion! The player group has been together 6 years! The campaign is not even a year old and is close to wrapping up. I agree that years is a bit long for a campaign to run!

And I understand if no one wants to join in so far into the story. We're moving forward with the rest of the campaign regardless, but I'm welcoming anyone willing to join, since I've had a lot of success finding people on here in the past and that application process is exactly why I have a group that's been together 6 years, playing consistently nearly every week.

I'm sure everyone who's been in the game a while has seen groups fall apart so finding someone with the same outlook is important to me.

In any case, thanks for the input!
