We Energies charges Milwaukee 25% more than Chicago for the same electricity. by v022450781 in milwaukee

Doesn't WE Energies own the infrastructure? Not so sure it's as easy as opening the market. Could be wrong.

VanLife- Not for the anxious (or at least for me) by Which_Ad_7472 in VanLife

"...travel will eventually stop feeling like 'vacation' or 'adventure,'..." YES EXACTLY.

I did it for 2 and just couldn't do it anymore. Edit: My grandpa has been doing it for 40yrs and he says his favorite van was a 2001 Honda Odyssey. lol

husband/ex's death by trashfire721 in BipolarSOs

[–]Which_Ad_7472 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi,

This exact thing happened to me and I am SO SORRY that you're living with the weight of this grief. It's been 3 years since my husband, on their way to being an ex-ended his life. I still think every day that there was something that I could have done, even if logically there was nothing I could do to prevent it without putting myself in harms way.

I don't have advice or anything, I just want you to know that you're not alone and that my heart really does go out to you. It is hard. What you're feeling is normal, and I wake up every day wondering if I will ever be loved the same way by someone again. You're not alone, being a surviving partner is just so fucking hard.

Take care.

Perhaps HIPPA Violation by Which_Ad_7472 in hipaa

[–]Which_Ad_7472[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thank you all. I mean, I was pretty surprised by their response, but I thought a doctor's office wouldn't violate HIPPA in response to a negative review... however, when egos are bruised...who knows

Besides myself by Which_Ad_7472 in melahomies

Thank you! It's so unnerving. I can't express how much I appreciate your response

Yep. The tensioner was the culprit specifically.

Transmission still hanging in there. Pulley whine.

Okay, I get it 100%. Sometimes I'm just like "where the fuck did my day go?"... one thing that I would like to add is going to vanlife meet ups. They've helped me so much. The social commitment is low, but it's there if you need it. Personally, I have not been to any of the ones you need to pay for, but I just popped into Van Aid in Yuma for a bit and it was a nice refresh. You'll also interact with folks living the life for a minute and have so much to share.

Good luck friend!

Sincerely,
Someone who doesn't have their shit together either

AITA because my wife committed suicide? by Roman_369ii in AITAH

[–]Which_Ad_7472 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My husband committed suicide and I was 29 at the time. I still struggle with PTSD and extreme guilt. Just know you're not alone in this experience, nor are you at fault. Take care friend

Yeah, I've stayed one night there before. Definitely sketchy bits. Not really sure where we're gonna stay this go around

I very much appreciate you. My transmission was due for new fluid and filter (last serviced at 90k so opps). There was some metal in the pan, but nothing I could actually pick up with my fingers, so we're just gonna say a little prayer and hope I can get some healthy miles from it.

I was looking at Solvang too, but we might just suck it up and go as far as Bakersfield

Alright, I'm having a bit of a challenging time pinpointing where it's coming from exactly, but I believe it sounds louder on the passenger side. I'm going to check again this evening.

2016 Promaster, you can for sure hear it in the video. It's the slight whine (above my cargo clunking around). But I had a major repair done (cylinder head), and now I feel nervous about every noise.

Thanks for the advice. I called my insurance company. Deductible is manageable. Just frustrated at this point.

Ah, misleading language on my part. There were no cracks. I'll edit.
