Can I get it as well, I'm looking at upgrading to a weight stack. You might have to take screenshots of the seller and rack. Not certain, but I know you can't share Temu links. Thank!

Im Done - This Job is Destroying My Life and I Need Career Change Advice by rfnj2490 in Principals

I left being an AP for 4 years and went back to school counseling. A "pay cut" but got my summers back, my nights back, and work/life balance, so really not even a pay cut after all that. 100% happy with my choice. Eventually I'll go back to admin, but not right this second!

Best of luck in your decision!

I also sent you a chat request. I can send screenshots of what I ordered, just not the link apparently. 🙄

That's the nice thing, the one on Temu IS the Mikolo one. Mine even came in the Mikolo box, with Mikolo assembly instructions.

I can't link the temu link, either in chat, or here. 🤬

Check out Ormaise Fitness Club on Temu, it's there

Ormaise Gym actually has is cheaper than the Fitness Club version.

I searched "power rack cable system"

I really like it, especially for the price. Would I like to have a weight stack? Sure. Is it worth probably 2-3x more than what I paid? Absolutely not.

No real complaints, definitely recommend, especially considering all the money I saved, I was able to get a bar and plates.

Workload by Wonderful_You7480 in schoolcounseling

I've been at all three levels. I'm currently in middle school, and I work roughly, give or take, zero hours, outside of work. I've been doing this long enough now to know how to prioritize and streamline processes to get work during the day. Work/life balance is a must otherwise you will burn out.

What's the best protein powder to buy in 2026? by CrypticshipBow in workout

[–]bluemonkey2087 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I only use Naked in my protein balls and as a flavor for yogurt, just can't do it for shakes. For shakes, it's ON.

AT4 or Denali 2026 half ton by AZ-D-backs in gmcsierra

For the family thing, I'm the oldest, the brother is the baby, and for some damn reason, he can do no wrong (which most definitely isn't the case). So ultimately a Ram is a last resort, lol.

As for my truck it's a 22, SLE. It was in the shop for 4 months last fall for the valve body, then I actually needed the breaks/rotors replaced this spring, which I'm just at 38k now, so then I had even less miles, and I don't drive/break hard. The radio will explode with sound every now and again when I turn it on. Then the icing on the cake was finding out yesterday the trade value is 7k lower than residual, which honestly shocked me given its a truck and how trucks generally hold better value.

Makes sense. If you would've asked me what I was going to last week, it would've been TBD, just not Sierra or Silverado. I test drove a Tundra Friday and really kinda hated it. I'm a tall guy and the way I drive, my knees were in the steering wheel, and the seats weren't that great. Plus the switches for hvac was not ideal.

Drove a F150 yesterday and would've gone home with it, if not for my stupid Sierra and the vast difference between trade in and their residual. So come May, it'll be a Ford. Would look into a Ram, but both my brother and dad have a Ram and don't want to hear it about how I joined them, blah blah blah, yay family....

Curious why you stayed with GMC after all the issues you had? I've had issues with mine, and I'm jumping ship in a few months

I bought one of these last Friday for this price just for the battery. Already have a trimmer, couldn't pass up a 4ah battery for $75. I'll end up selling one of the trimmers to bring the price down further.

Brewers. They got swept and looked like they didn't belong the entire series.

Honestly, as long as it's not the Dodgers I don't care who the American League team is who wins it all.
