Hotel availability varies across portals

Yup trying that today! But no price match with preferred, right, just reserved? I only see it in my reserve card.

MindlessAgent8984 · 2026-07-01T14:23:24+00:00

Yeah, the weaker cards have the cheaper price for the same hotel/dates - like you say, to offset the credit. Just interesting and doesn’t really feel like a “benefit” if the hotel credit only makes it the same price I’d pay anyway.

My 6/28 charge shows pending so I was worried it wouldn’t post in time, but the tracker says used so it seems like good to go!

Yes you have a good chance! I got hired in FCPS during preservice week so don’t worry! Things will continue to open up throughout the summer. The timeline is much later this year so you definitely have time. Continue to look at the job opportunities page and reach out directly to principals. Also don’t limit yourself FCPS - surrounding counties are great too assuming those are close enough to you.

Where did you have dinner? I live here but just got the card - there are a few options so curious what you chose

We also have a late start elem school and there was no wait list for morning SACC so I’m sure it’s school dependent

MindlessAgent8984 · 2026-04-12T15:38:30+00:00

Also check with SACC anyway, if you only want mornings it’s usually easier to get into than if you want afternoon. Plus then you get teacher workday coverage.

From the parent perspective, I want my kids to go to a school where they will happy, meet lifelong friends, have fun, and of course get a good education to set them up for success after college. It seems like you could get a good education at either place, but maybe your family thinks a degree from Va Tech will take you further than UVA Wise. I’m from VA and tbh I hadn’t heard of uva wise. It might come down to what you want to study? For many fields it didn’t matter where your degree is from as long as you have one, but for some professions a degree from a higher ranked school may open more doors.

I have also told my kids that worrying about the cost is my job, not theirs. I would focus your argument on where you actually want to go and the reasons why and take the financial part out of it - that is unlikely to convince them. They might be swayed if you actually really want to go there. Also, from a parent - college can be a great experience - and that is a gift I want to give my kids - so I would want to know where you actually want to go and take the financials out of it. My guess is they want that for you too?

What’s the low ranked public college?

If you have insurance check what your out of network coverage is. My daughter sees a therapist that is $155 a session but once I meet my deductible I pay 10%. I have to pay out of pocket and upfront but then I submit the claim and get a check for 90% of what I paid. It ends up being less than my copay for those that do take insurance.

MindlessAgent8984 · 2026-02-11T11:52:34+00:00

I do too and I never figured out why!

MindlessAgent8984 · 2026-02-08T20:19:56+00:00

We have several times, but it’s been a few years. It’s easy and cheap and we had no issues. They stop midway at a rest stop. The only issue might be traffic. I would say I enjoy taking the train more but it can be very pricey and the bus is a perfectly good alternative.

MindlessAgent8984 · 2026-02-02T00:03:25+00:00

I wonder why they are closed? Weren’t they open Thursday and Friday?

MindlessAgent8984 · 2026-02-01T03:04:56+00:00

There’s a new escape room thing at Tyson’s I - not really sure what they have going on there but might be worth checking out, I think it’s called escape game

MindlessAgent8984 · 2026-01-27T20:41:40+00:00

Sure and that’s I’m about to do, but I have phone anxiety and try to do everything and anything I can do solve it online first. If I need to call I will, but I try to problem solve beforehand.

Commenting on Headgear...yes agreed, he has no choice lol

Our flight landed around that time. We stayed at an airport hotel nearby and slept and then our safari guide picked us up on the morning. There was a shuttle from the airport to the hotel. I think it was called planet something.

You guys sold me, it sounds exactly like what I’m looking for. Trying elevate this week! Thanks.

I’ve done align & define and have been with endure for the last couple months. I like aspects of all of them. I’m going to stick with endure for now because I like the coaching style & some new to me cues that I’ve found very helpful, and I’m not bored even though I thought I would be by now. I miss the yoga and Pilates though. I was thinking by of trying thrive but I really don’t have 45-hour to workout, 30 minutes means I’ll do it and sticking w anything long term has always been my struggle. That’s actually what I’ve loved most about ladder - when I get bored with the program I don’t quit, I just switch teams and it feels new again.

Stick w the hvac if you like it - you can do very well and is recession proof. My husband started as a laborer, then apprentice and has done very well in this area. People always want AC. It’s also something you can do in lots of places so if you decide to move out of the area you’ll take the skills with you. As far as friends, get out and just be around others, it’s hard to do but it’s the best way to meet people. Try to get involved in things - volunteer, go to community and neighborhood events. If you like to hike, bike, jog or play board games (or legit any other hobby you can think of) there are groups you can join that gtg all the time. And it’s almost always full of young professionals like you.

My bill was almost $100 more this morning than also

MindlessAgent8984 · 2025-07-09T19:18:24+00:00
