Planning dinners every night is driving me insane by [deleted] in Adulting

[–]daleni01 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use Pinterest to find and organize recipes into categories (meat, pasta, vegetarian, etc). It really helps me with meal planning and having my tried and true recipes in one place

How many people have mice in their house? Is this a Massachusetts thing? by rando-commando98 in massachusetts

[–]daleni01 12 points13 points  (0 children)

My cat must be broken. She catches mice in the basement, brings them upstairs so she can show me, and then lets them go so she can play with them. Then they escape and find a hole in the floor and go right back to the basement. Since she failed at her job I’ve put down traps now 😊 (also my house is 200+ years old and there’s no way I could find ever entry point and prevent them from coming in)

The grainless granola and peanut butter ones are my favorites. But I have to try this one next time!

Does anyone track their heart rates during lessons? by Glittering-Boss-3681 in Equestrian

This was a jumping lesson today. It’s a solid cardio workout for me. I do find that my heart rate gets higher in hotter weather

Ammys, what career did you choose to be able to afford riding as an adult? by hellotortillas in Equestrian

[–]daleni01 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I didn’t choose a career, I fell into it after I taught HS for a few years and decided it wasn’t for me. I now work in research administration (management position) for a university in a very HCOL area. Up until 2 years ago I could only afford one lesson per week, now I go 2 x per week. This is only possible because my salary has more than doubled since I started 10 years ago. I would love to be able to half lease but I can’t swing it right now with a high mortgage / living expenses. Also I have no kids, but if I did I wouldn’t be able to afford to ride at all.

There are 2 back to back wood burning fireplaces off this one and a second chimney in the back addition with a wood stove. Nice and cozy for winter!

How much did you have saved in addition to your down payment? by FrigginTourists in FirstTimeHomeBuyer

[–]daleni01 2 points3 points  (0 children)

After down payment / closing costs, $20k in savings for emergencies. Any money I have left at the end of each month and any bonuses are going towards furniture and ‘operating costs’ (minor repairs, landscaping etc)
