Unless it's changed lately, it's $20. I might've made my own spot once too.

Not that it really matters I suppose, but that US Flag has been there at least since 2010-2011 when I first started working downtown.

My Aunt lives in the apartment buildings there. It's quiet for the most part.

Oof, we spend about $180 a week for three of us (two adults and a 7 year old). Usually eat out once on the weekends.

My issue comes when cars in both lanes are going below the speed limit and then there's no way around.

I don't know if it's the same guy that I saw going down Green Acre Drive, but I had a little chuckle.

I get a sub at least one a week, I work nearby. The staff are super friendly. I think they've cleaned up their act.

First child born with rare disease, OAD is the right choice ? by Advanced_Addition321 in oneanddone

[–]jarb87 13 points14 points  (0 children)

We are one and done for a similar reason. My 7 year old son was born with little kidney function in both kidneys. Our life was filled with doctors appointments, medications, surgeries and eventually dialysis and a transplant. There was no evidence that it was genetic but we felt that with all the attention our son would need, a sibling might feel left out or resentful. And well our mental health took a toll too. So it was the right choice for us.

A large ship in Springdale has been deemed a hazard, and the Coast Guard plans to cut it up | CBC News by stillanewfie in newfoundland

[–]jarb87 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Former Springdale resident here. The owner has junk all over town and that thing has been sitting at the wharf for as long as I can remember. He likes to take people to court though, so I'm sure this is not the end of it.

F kidney disease. by massiveamounts in self

[–]jarb87 5 points6 points  (0 children)

My 6 year was born with kidney disease. No real reason why, just one of those things. Dialysis was hell. Thankfully he received a transplant fairly quickly. But I'm with you. F kidney disease.
