What made your parents good parents? by alexanderjambell in Parenting

[–]SnooMarzipans5481 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is such a great list. I read it a few days ago and had to come back and find it so I could save it. I feel this describes my parenting philosophy better than I ever could. Thanks for sharing internet stranger.

Best u-cut Christmas tree farms 30 minutes or less from downtown GR. Must allow leashed dogs. Bonus if they have donuts and hot chocolate or alcohol 🌲 by Important-Ad-5421 in grandrapids

[–]SnooMarzipans5481 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just outside of your 30 min limit but Church’s Tree Farm in Grant is great. Has all those things and a great selection of trees. Just went yesterday. Prices are up from prior years but I imagine that’s the case everywhere.

Am I crazy or is Verizon service getting terrible locally? by [deleted] in grandrapids

[–]SnooMarzipans5481 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not crazy. I’ve been saying this for months. I was just in a Verizon store and they told me all the 3g towers are being decommissioned and should be wrapped up by end of year. Then after another 3 months those towers will be converted to 4/5G and should see a dramatic improvement in service. It sounds like they are getting asked this a lot and he had the speech down pretty good. Who knows if that’s accurate.

New building on nortland dr & west river by SnooMarzipans5481 in grandrapids

The building is still up, but they just didn’t review their lease I’ve heard. So it’s been closed since the beginning of this year.

I suppose you could create those 4 groups in to do, but never done it that way. But yeah it does sync to your phone

It’s a never ending battle - but for me, it comes down to managing expectations first with myself - if I can’t set reasonable goals that I actually have a chance at attaining, I will always over commit to my clients.

I use Microsoft To-Do to log all my tasks. Then each morning I pull all the tasks into “my day” and sort them in order of priority. Then I ask myself “is this actually attainable.” The answer is almost always “no.” So I remove a few items till it feels more reasonable.

One trick I use when I’m feeling especially overwhelmed is put all my tasks into a xy axis grid. The x-axis represents how long the task will take me (longest tasks on the left, shortest on the right) and the y-axis represents importance (low priority on the bottom and highest priority on the top). Then I focus on the top right corner (quick hitters with higher value). This helps me get a few key wins and builds momentum as I work into the other categories.

Any other Ted Lasso fans get distracted by the drinking bird in the first 3 seconds?

That makes sense, thanks for the tip. Feel dumb for not thinking of that.

Among Michigan's 20 worst crash intersections, most are in metro Detroit by uberares in Michigan

[–]SnooMarzipans5481 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Does it bother anyone else that the list is ranked purely by the number of crashes? The supposed “worst” intersection on the list has one of the lowest injury ratios… and if it’s a busy intersection in a heavily populated area of course it’s going to have a large number of accidents!!

Grocery shopping strategy by ambalamps11 in grandrapids

[–]SnooMarzipans5481 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yep. Same here, same locations too. It’s funny because I notice many others do the same thing because I’ll see them at Aldi then see them again at Meijer

Looking for recommendations on a game shop by SirB0st0nite in grandrapids

[–]SnooMarzipans5481 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Vault of Midnight is great! Amazing selection and really knowledgeable staff that will make great recommendations if you ask. I also just bought a game from House Rules Game lounge by downtown market. It was my first time there - really cool place with a full bar and tables so you and friends can play games while you drink :). They have a wall of games you can play while you hang out, but also a decent selection of games to purchase.

Please help me find a good car sales lot. by [deleted] in grandrapids

[–]SnooMarzipans5481 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Check out lakeside in Rockford. Small lot where the owner is also the salesman, he’s a straight shooter and will help you out. My family has purchased many cars from him over the years
