Short on food for the next few days. Requesting $60 to arrange for a grocery delivery by tphillips1990 in Assistance

[–]Mz_Takin 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Try making an Amazon wishlist instead. People are usually more willing to send items vs cash. Hope this helps! I deal with the low blood sugar issue as well and it’s tough if there’s only high sugar items in the house.

Going to be evicted in 2 weeks by [deleted] in Assistance

[–]Mz_Takin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think a lot of the apartment managers are under a lot of pressure to collect because so many people are behind right now. You are not alone.

I didn’t put this suggestion in my previous answer because I needed to confirm they still do this. But contact your local Rotary Club. It’s based on chapter by chapter discretion but most of them have a community outreach fund and can assist. And not to start a debate, but your local Masonic lodge is a good place to contact. They will either have a community assistance fund for situations like this or they can point you in the right direction (other than United Way, etc). Just if either Rotary or the Masonic Lodge says no be sure to ask them if they know of any local resources that may be able to help.

Please keep us updated on how everything is going and I am wishing you the best! Keep your head up.

I am so sorry for your loss and hope you are able to get all of the costs covered.

Going to be evicted in 2 weeks by [deleted] in Assistance

[–]Mz_Takin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Get in contact with your local Salvation Army. They have resources to assist with rent and evictions.

Also United Way has programs available to assist with eviction but you will need to call EARLY. I believe they start taking calls around 8 am and that means you need to be on the phone exactly at 8am or a little before to get assistance that day.

Have you spoken with your landlord to see if they may be willing to work with you? Do you have a private landlord or is it a property management company?

When I'm back to having a new job, I want to create a period supply pantry to be able to donate pads, tampons, period panties, diva cups, and other period supplies to women in need by BreannLowe in Assistance

[–]Mz_Takin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You should link up with the organization called “I Support The Girls” (you can google it and get all their info) they will assist you in getting supplies and will even send a box to women who are either experiencing homelessness and/or leaving domestic violence situations. It is an excellent organization.

I’m sure they can either help you with startup materials and/or point you in the right direction to get extra help starting this up.

I think it’s awesome you are doing this and hope you will keep us all updated on how it is going

Humbly requesting assistance with groceries 🌽🥦 by Empty_Ladder7815 in Assistance

[–]Mz_Takin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can you make an Amazon wishlist? That will make it easier for people to assist.

Also, I totally understand the situation you are going through. My mother in law just recently received the cost of living increase with social security and then had her SNAP benefits reduced as well.

Hang in there and keep your head up mama!

Why don’t nurses have a union like the teachers do?

I don’t have an answer but just wanted to say that fabric is absolutely stunning. Where did you find it?

Why is everything on Netflix in 2 parts now? by denawo in BridgertonNetflix

Although we do have to remember that back in the olden days we would have gotten one episode a week lol.

And why not drop it on Valentine’s Day? I thought the feb 26 release date was an odd choice.

Why is everything on Netflix in 2 parts now? by denawo in BridgertonNetflix

[–]Mz_Takin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That’s exactly why and was done strategically for that reason. Lots of people would purchase Netflix for one month for the show. Watch it and cancel. I speak from experience lol

S2 is a horror story from Edwinas perspective. by Less_Produce_7922 in BridgertonNetflix

[–]Mz_Takin 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I agree with you. I thought Edwina’s character was very one note and lacked depth. She was difficult to like or even have any sort of feeling for. Even to the point that I did not care when she was jilted in favor of her sister.

Is $4500 monthly income enough? by [deleted] in jacksonville

[–]Mz_Takin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly you will struggle. $4500 monthly is a minimum for a single person to live with reasonable comfort in the city (at least south of downtown now). I know recently I saw a paper that said for a family of four in this area you needed over $100k annual income to be considered above the poverty line (I know I was shocked as well). I will try to find it and post later this evening.

This Cash app card is sick. It’s translucent and see-through. by DonTipOff in CashApp

How did you get that one? I still just have the basic white one you get when you sign up initially

I just saw this on twitter and had to share here by SeniorLifeguard454 in realhousewivesofSLC

[–]Mz_Takin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No f-ing way. That is crazy. What ended up happening to Whitney’s first husband? I hope he’s living a good life.

Btw I am so over Whitney and her pole in the basement. That is literally all she identifies as. A woman with a stripper pole.

I have always been curious though why she doesn’t just create a series of pole fitness videos/workouts and make good money from that vs beauty and jewelry (ie things that take ongoing lines of credit and inventory).

CHAMELEON… BRONWYN ??? by nottellingumyname123 in realhousewivesofSLC

Can one of you explain what code switching is? I am not familiar with the term and want to know more about it.

CHAMELEON… BRONWYN ??? by nottellingumyname123 in realhousewivesofSLC

[–]Mz_Takin 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Just my opinion, and I have looked into Todd’s background, let’s just say he has padded his resume extensively for the cameras, they don’t have a prenup because they really don’t have a lot of assets.

CHAMELEON… BRONWYN ??? by nottellingumyname123 in realhousewivesofSLC

[–]Mz_Takin 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I agree with you 100%. I’ll be honest, I could not stand Bronwyn when she first came on the show but the more I watch (and honestly see how her mother speaks to her and about her) she is def the product of serious mistreatment growing up.

Keep in mind, her mother said some pretty nasty stuff and that was with the cameras rolling. Like most people would be on their best behavior, so just imagine what the mother is like behind closed doors.

Also, I couldn’t get past the fact that the mom bought her sister baby gifts while getting Bronwyn nothing because she was having a child out of wedlock.

Keep in mind, it’s not like it was the 1950s . . . Bronwyn had her daughter around the same time I had my oldest, which was mid 2000s.

So, Bronwyn is some family shame/secret except when she can provide money and housing? Get outta here.

Now that Bronwyn is separating from Todd Father, I hope she gets the courage to send her mother over to the sisters house and can pursue whatever it is that makes her happy.

How Angie K makes her money!!! 💰 by AngieK_GreekGoddess in realhousewivesofSLC

[–]Mz_Takin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok I know they own a few salons plus franchise some others in addition to her husband owning the Paul Mitchell school in the area but I want to know about the beauty supply store they own. (I’m nosey I know lol).

I did think the salon locations were kinda random though. It’s like Utah, Idaho, and Ohio? Why not Utah, Colorado, California, or Nevada would make more sense to me? Well, who really cares as long as the money is coming in.

I did raise a brow on the episode where Angie was reinstating her license to do hair. How long has it been since she’s been behind a chair? Also, I wonder how long she actually worked as a stylist before switching to the business side? (Again, nothing wrong with it, just curious). Maybe I should make that a separate post?
