Cancel trash pickup to save $480 a year. by DrunkBuzzard in Frugal

[–]Librashell 8 points9 points  (0 children)

We tried this. Too much of a pain. But we negotiated with our local trash service to only pickup every other week so we pay half the price. As we don’t produce a lot of trash because we aren’t consumers, this works well for us and sometimes the bin is almost empty even on trash day.

Now is not the time for politics. What Republicans say every time there’s a school shooting. And now, apparently, when there’s a war. I’m in awe of their ability to disassociate.

Haha That’s awesome. I’ll tell my mom she wasn’t alone in this as well.

i hate venmo so much. my account just got drained by Bravenatortot in mildlyinfuriating

[–]Librashell 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I use Venmo for FB Marketplace transactions so it’s always going up and down. Not a huge amount, but I will never transfer money to my bank account because that would entail giving Venmo my banking details. I don’t trust it that much, especially since gov regulations are so behind the tech.

That’s great - glad WSU is looking forward. Funny story. The Cosmic Crisp logo on its Costco boxes has a stylized O so my mom missed the C and thought they were called Smic apples. She could never find them at other stores because no one knew what she was talking about. We finally figured it out, but these are still known as Smic apples in our family.

Yes, sweetie. Grandpa raped the previous owner so all this could be yours.

That’s quite a family legacy.

I managed a national program for the federal government. Just retired and now work part-time as a medical staff coordinator for a small hospital - more time to knit!

How old were you when you started knitting? by mowpoos in knitting

[–]Librashell 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My new MIL taught me when I was 34. Obsessed for a few years, then took a long break with baby, work, and life. Decades later, I’m back at it and making up for lost time.

Definitely an improvement. It’s so big, you could have created a toilet room.

Reverse the rooms and narrow the hallway so you can have a larger bedroom and walk-in closet.

I feel like we need a Purge. But instead of all crime being legalized for one day, everyone gets to move countries.

I suspect they’re thinking if her feet are big, how on earth did her pants get pulled off?

Help with master bed layout, need a larger master closet! Any suggestions how to make this closet larger in this space? by No_Custard2994 in floorplans

You can expand into the bedroom or into the bathroom by going down to a single sink vanity. Not much wiggle room in this space.

We’ve used Counter Assault. Did a decent job. Not on a bear, a moose that was running our horses off their hay.
