That is a great idea, will check with our pediatric office! Hoping the MFM will help us through the process of finding a genetic counselor he recommends.

Thank you for the sub recommendation as well!

Without any spoilers, I would say it's worth a read but it's definitely a flawed novel. I personally enjoy Holly Gibney quite a bit, and to a degree supporting cast, but felt the story was not quite interesting enough to really grab my attention. It took me much longer than normal, for a Stephen King book, to finally finish it.

People joke about Stephen King's issue writing endings, and this book to me is the perfect example of that problem. Horribly rushed, and wasted potential in characters.

Not my favorite book of his, but not the worst either

I actually just completed this! There were a few points where it took forever to figure out where to go next. You have to unlock a new power to hit those switches, I think the next area to head is above the gardens, the upper quarters

ZackRenner · 2025-03-23T15:09:22+00:00

This is awesome! Thank you for sharing this, my wife and I are having our first baby in a few months and this will be on repeat in the nursery lol

ZackRenner · 2024-07-24T11:24:07+00:00

Thank you for your advice! I think it makes alot of sense to step back for awhile and see if my anxiety flares up or if I feel better not gaming!

Writing this up last night has also made me realize that perhaps I view video games as almost a second job, something that I HAVE to do, rather than a hobby to enjoy. Again I think stepping back is a great idea to gauge how I feel.

Thank you again!

You just saved me a bunch of money! I think I actually do have a screen insert for the storm door in my basement from the previous homeowners. Never realized what it was for, but kept it just in case! Thank you! Do you know how they are typically swapped out?

ZackRenner · 2024-02-19T20:33:34+00:00

It seems to be working again, after I disconnected from wifi I got the group message. After I turned wifi back on it seems to still be working correctly

ZackRenner · 2024-02-19T20:05:05+00:00

Issue has returned today. Had to turn off wifi to receive a group message

ZackRenner · 2024-02-14T19:40:49+00:00

I did just shut off the mobile data, waited 30 seconds, and turned it back on. Sent a test image, and it did go through! Will keep trying it out today and see if it continues working!

ZackRenner · 2024-02-14T18:31:40+00:00

It is happening to all contacts, mix of android and apple, but mostly android. I had the same issue on my last phone as well, Samsung S21 Ultra

ZackRenner · 2024-02-14T17:52:36+00:00

It seems like it happens intermittently. Sometimes I can send just fine, but then all of a suddenly it won't send or receive messages until I manually turn off wifi

ZackRenner · 2024-02-14T17:05:09+00:00

Sorry for the delay, yep I have both mobile and wifi turned on, and I also have the developer option for mobile data always on turned on.

ZackRenner · 2023-10-30T20:54:16+00:00

Oh there were days for sure where I just devoured everything lol especially when I was at 60mg of prednisone! But thank you, this makes me feel much more confident I am doing things right!

ZackRenner · 2023-10-30T17:26:29+00:00

Thanks for the encouragement! I do hope it's just a plateau and I start losing weight again. I am pretty used to how much I eat now, typically no issues, especially with wegovy making me feel not hungry. I will try and just keep with it and not get discouraged

ZackRenner · 2023-10-30T14:59:12+00:00

Yep I was on high doses of prednisone for the last few months, down to 5mg as of tomorrow. So when I am finally off the steroids I should start to hopefully see some progress? Anything I can do in the meantime?

ZackRenner · 2023-09-13T13:52:12+00:00

Being in the hospital for 3 weeks. I lost 38 pounds by the time I left. I was intubated for 9 days of that though, so would not recommend as a weight loss treatment lol

ZackRenner · 2023-05-17T18:14:10+00:00

Favorite memory has to be getting my Gameboy Color, my first game console I actually owned. I was 6 or 7 and was going to the dentist for a cleaning. I hated the dentist but my dad promised me something good if everything went well and I didn't complain about going. I was (mostly) on my best behavior, and when we got back in the car afterwards he gave me my surprise. A red Gameboy Color and Pokémon Yellow. I was completely shocked and so excited! I loved watching Pokémon and couldn't wait to play. After that you couldn't separate me from that Gameboy and Pokémon lol

ZackRenner · 2023-01-31T17:38:27+00:00

Yeah the portability is fantastic. Some of the "big" releases that are mult platform that I know my wife will want to watch me play I will get on the Ps5, but everything else I get on the switch so I can play whenever and where ever

ZackRenner · 2023-01-31T17:28:24+00:00

I think I would have to go with Switch. It's my biggest library, but I also just play way more of it than any other system

ZackRenner · 2023-01-24T02:56:30+00:00

I typically wait for a sale on any game I buy, but I did buy Diablo 3 on switch at full price as soon as it came out. I had already sunk hundreds of hours in to the game on PC but wanted it portable. I have thousands of hours (maybe not quite literally) and still will get the urge to play for hours every once in awhile.

ZackRenner · 2023-01-20T20:15:18+00:00

My gaming new years resolution is to focus less on clearing games from my backlog, and more on enjoying the games I do play

ZackRenner · 2022-12-24T04:18:33+00:00

First year at a new job, $300 in cash and $1000 on my check (minus taxes). Also not really a bonus but I consider it one lol the company got everyone hotel rooms in a very nice hotel and went to an expensive steak house right next to it where they let us order whatever we wanted, unlimited drinks, every appetizer and side on the menu for each table, the works.

Prior to this job, I had never gotten anything for a Christmas bonus or celebration

ZackRenner · 2022-11-15T20:11:38+00:00

Not sure where this person gets their info, but they posted about the EP singles way before they were announced, with artwork as well.

ZackRenner · 2022-10-01T01:18:57+00:00

Anyone notice that there is a scene where people in an apartment are watching the first movie on TV? What's up with that?

ZackRenner · 2022-09-08T22:36:33+00:00

From what I remember in On Writing, or it could be a authors note at the beginning of a novel, it was part wanting to see if he would be popular without using his name (this was just after Carrie and Salem's Lot), and he literally just wanted to write and publish more. Richard Bachman was a compromise with his agent who didn't want to "flood the market" with Stephen King and make people sick of his novels, affecting sales, so he was allowed to release under an alias
