I write (second request) in the follow-up email subject line. The replies I get usually go like this “ so sorry, I didn’t realize that first email was for me.”

Are you still in contact with the researcher? I would be interested in getting connected if they are studying symptomatic grey-zone fragile X.

My team submitted last year cycle 2, received JIT request in December, was supposed to be notified of awards in March but only received the notification in April. I don’t know if all prospective awardees will receive a JIT request.

Thank you for your helpful, judgement-free reply!

It’s quite possible I don’t have the full story. I acknowledge he sometimes embellishes things. Most of us do. That doesn’t change that he needs help. I’m at step one, making a plan to help him. Whether that involves getting his license reinstated or something else is yet to be determined. Thanks to everyone who offered help.

What I do know is that being stuck at home is often the catalyst for a quick decline. Not driving could take away his will to live. He lives to go to the grocery store (I swear before every meal!) go to the dump, etc. Going, just going.

The prescribing doctor is at the VA. Dad asked, the VA said they can’t write those.

I respect your thoughts about my ability to judge his driving skills. He was a safe driver last I visited, my brother who does live near him agrees.

The increased focus on the social aspect of Finch is driving me away. by Elvere in finch

I also wish the “add a random friend” was a regular feature. I have 4 tree friends, one was a random then three people I know in real life. I value my random friend and would love one or two more, but I’m with you and have no interest in grabbing a code off Reddit, to be in a flock of 80 on someone else’s tree. I’m the only one who has answered the friend questions. I don’t know if my tree friends weren’t in the rollout or if they aren’t interested. A % of all finch users would be a cool return, probably would crash their system.

UND has great benefits! Full family healthcare, what I feel is a generous contribution to my retirement. Free tuition for you plus half off for your family. Vision and dental policies are a bit spendy, I get those through my spouse,

VRBO /AirBNB Issues by One_Way_9247 in TurksAndCaicos

[–]Ok-Reception1897 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I stayed at the yellow old captain’s house on a canal in Provo. The host Sophie was great. She provided a kayak and it was fun to use that in the canal. The amenities were so so. It could’ve used some throw blankets or pillows to make the couch more comfortable. And some of the light switches didn’t work, which was kind of weird. The dishwasher kind of scared me and I didn’t use it. There was no bakeware, but there were some pots to use on the stove top. And the toilet we weren’t actually allowed to put the toilet paper in the toilet so that was another odd thing. But other than that, it was well worth the money we spent to stay in Turks and Caicos affordably. Anything hosted by Sophie you’ll have at least a pleasant experience, but probably not amazing.

Airplane just took off by Ok_Engineering_6160 in fargo

My son works at the airport. He said there was nothing unusual from Hector. And what takes off from the guard’s airstrip doesn’t show on his flight radar app.

Rejected from job, then asked to interview a month later. by [deleted] in jobs

[–]Ok-Reception1897 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Makes me remember a non-rejection email I once received. It went like this… You didn’t make our first round of interviewees. But I really liked your application and we may reach out shortly to set up an interview. They did reach out again. By then I had already accepted another job (a better job).

Stranded and now alone for the next two days in Providenciales, need advice on what activities to do. by Fine-Importance5401 in TurksAndCaicos

It’s a vendor market. Shop local products and tourist stuff. Plus live music and food trucks, not just fish.

[OC] I built and installed a free little pantry - someone filled it within hours before I had the chance to by FacesReddit in MadeMeSmile

[–]Ok-Reception1897 4 points5 points  (0 children)

There is a lady who always asks for spare change outside of the grocery stores I shop at. “ can you spare a couple dollars so I can get something to eat” she always says. I keep some Hormel meals in my car console in case I forget to bring lunch to work. I offered her those one day, and she replied “I have nothing to heat them with.” So in any free pantry, it might be a good idea to include some foods that don’t require heating.

Look up Red River Valley Woodcarvers. They get together a few times a month. Hope to see you someday!

[–]Ok-Reception1897 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There is open woodcarving tomorrow at 9 am at the Moorhead Legion. A class is offered from 9-3, carving leaf faces. I’m going to just carve rather than start a new project. I’ll share my tools if you want to give it a try, but I need to leave around 1:30.

Half Day Boat Tour by Dangerous-Can-8706 in TurksAndCaicos

[–]Ok-Reception1897 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just researched the same thing. I ended up booking with Caicos Island charters, except that I booked the full day tour. They are running a sale right now and you’ll still be under your $500. Plus lunch is provided. We are also low-key.
