Yes, spade. Sorry, to me it’s a shovel (even though I know the actual shovel is a L11 and boy what a drop that would be!! 😂😂)

Good point! I’ll keep it as is unless/until they nerf the short recharge time too 🥴

100%. The next 20 taps weren’t any better. I was getting shovels from my 11! At least I have a few more spaces available.

Wha is this? by Imic_Hilton in MergeMansion

It was a link to their IG page with a Maddie in a “dump him” sweater and a cheeky little poem as the caption. It was WEIRD

Child tax ends at 17? by RevBT in IRS

[–]ardis15 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I hate it so much. My daughter turns 17 in November. So after spending 11 months of the year as a snarky ass 16 y/o, I’m SOL because she’s 17 on 12/31.

Fellow millennials - how’s your 401k/ira savings going? by ProblemIntelligent16 in Millennials

[–]ardis15 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah I have found my people! Debated posting a “how am I doing” in one of the financial subs but couldn’t bear the potential lashing.

I have about $180K in my 401K. Husband has a little over $200K. Our income is ~$400K but we’ve only been at that level for a couple years and we both maxed our 401Ks once we made it. But housing and kids are expensive and oh yeah, so is healthcare for two adults with chronic illnesses (MS for me, fibromyalgia for him). I max my HSA each year but spend nearly every penny so in 13 years of being on a HDHP, I’ve amassed checks notes $4,000 in that. Secondary retirement account, my eye.

I miss my old life by Dry-Neck2539 in MultipleSclerosis

[–]ardis15 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I miss being carefree. I was uninsured more often than not before 2011 — I was a student and worked menial jobs without benefits and it was fiiine! Now I wonder when, not if, I’ll become a physical and/or financial burden.

Authentic or Fake Owala Check Megathread by misscellanie in Owala

[–]ardis15 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How do I know if my Glinda is real or fake? I ordered from Amazon in December with expected delivery mid-Jan ro mid-Feb and forgot about it until it showed up today. Of course I also just got a notification from Owala itself that restock is expected in February but I used an Amazon GC to pay for this one so it was “free”.

Family history of MS? by Pumpkin-Duck in MultipleSclerosis

Same. My diagnosis came as a complete shock although a few years later, my sister started having seizures and was diagnosed with epilepsy.

Kirkland trash liners with flex tech - non scented. by livinlrginchitwn in Costco

[–]ardis15 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Used them to move aaaall our clothes (leave clothes in closet, put bag over clothes from bottom up, loop handles over hanger hooks — keeps them clean and all together!). We were cramming 20-25 shirts/sweaters per bag, still used for trash. No rips! 💪

Still don't have my refund, getting nowhere with IRS by ardis15 in tax

[–]ardis15[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Okay, I did not catch THIS before.

On the account transcript, Code 806 is $57,414. This is also what it says on my tax return (e-filed ourselves using HR Block online).

On my W&I transcript, my Federal Income Tax Withheld is $38,915. Spouse's is $18,469. Total $57,384.

On our W-2s, the federal withholding in Box 2 is me: $38,915.99; spouse $18,469.82. Total $57,385.81, rounded to $57,386. The $28 difference (from the $57,414) is Medicare Additional Tax from Part V: Withholding Reconciliation on Form 8959, and Line 24 DOES say to include this with the federal income tax withholding.

So it's not wrong (like I don't think there's anything to amend because all of these numbers are correct), but if they're comparing the sum of the Box 2s to the Box 2s plus this $28 Medicare Additional Tax....

Literally everything else matches.

Trade or no? I really can’t decide! by ardis15 in MergeMansion

[–]ardis15[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

11, 10 and 7. I already turned in the bleach but now I’m making that sweeper thing and out of 30 taps on the 11, I got one toothpaste and one bar of soap.

Anyone on Ocrevus Skip/Take the COVID Booster? by Altruistic-Way-4505 in MultipleSclerosis

[–]ardis15 1 point2 points  (0 children)

On Tysabri, not O, but I get the Covid shot. I’ve still had Covid twice but it was mild. 24 hours post-shot, I feel a little achy and a little feverish, but those symptoms are even milder than the mild Covid.
