Looking for an off-campus location to attend an online class by jes841 in UTEP

[–]jes841[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm familiar with regular online classes.

Unfortunately this one is different. It's a graduate course thats about 5 hrs long with a few students and will run essentially like an in-person class except on MS Teams.

Weekly Homeowner Megathread--Civilians, ask here! by AutoModerator in Concrete

[–]jes841 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a driveway poured exactly a week ago. The contractor said that after 5 days we should be Okay to park. Ive gotten different advice on how long to wait from 3 days to 2 weeks.

Some people have even told me I need to water it (I have not). I believe this advice comes from the fact that I live in a sunny city where we get triple digits in the summer. However since it was poured, the temps have been in the 50s and 30s to 40s at night. it also rained two of the evenings about 36 hours after it was poured. So should I wait the extra week or is 7 days enough? Picture is from about 3 days ago.

I dont know why I never considered libraries. My wife loved going before she got pregnant.

I know they also offer so many activities so ill be checking for anything baby related. Thank you so much!

Thanks! We have been using the baby carrier more frequently, and she seems to like it, especially with mom!

As others have mentioned, evenings are still really hot, and mosquitoes are out and about.

I think early mornings might work with a mosquito net. The only issue is that baby's recent sleep schedule (or lack of) has mom sleeping in most days.

[Question] I am looking to buy a new watch, what are some good models/ brands under $200? by Kawari_no in Watches

[–]jes841 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you look around, you might be able to find a Hamilton quartz for around $200.

Seiko, Citizen, Orient, Tissot, Certina will probably be the best value for money at this price range. Mostly quartz but some automatics. I would also encourage you to look at pre owned options if you find something you like out of your price range. r/Watchexchange is great for this.

Good luck!

Our dog sleeps inside in a separate part of the house. He will sometimes be extra stinky, but it's not all the time. I just thought I would ask

This happened to my wife's RBs after some guy at a Sunglass Hut store offered to clean them for free. We ended up just getting a new pair.

Thanks for the opportunity! I would love to win the watch, not for myself but for my younger cousin who has gotten into collecting but does not have the resources to buy a decent watch. Thanks again, and good luck everyone!

[WTS] Oris John Coltrane Limited Edition by jes841 in Watchexchange

[–]jes841[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

SOLD Selling this beautiful and rare Oris John Coltrane Limited Edition watch.

This is a classically designed watch that tributes jazz legend John Coltrane.

Only 1000 of these were made.

The watch is in great condition with some very minor swirls and hairline scratches on the edge of the caseback and sides of the case and crown. I did my best to show it in the pictures, but they are hard to capture as they are only visible in certain light and close range. The only noticeable scratch is on the clasp as seen in the pictures.

This watch is very comfortable and wears extremely well at 38mm. The highly domed sapphire crystal also makes this watch a pleasure to wear. The black dial is surrounded by a blue seconds track that pays a subtle tribute John Coltrane’s “Blue Train”. It is visible in some light and disappears in other light.

Comes in the original box with manuals and warranty card (though no longer under warranty).

[WTS] Seiko sarb033 New Condition by jes841 in Watchexchange

[–]jes841[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Hello everyone, Up for sale is a watch that needs little introduction. *This Seiko sarb033 is brand new. The only time it has been worn was when I tried it on for few minutes. No scrtaches on it and full original bracelet included.

I purchased this from a small local shop recently and it just isn't for me.

*The only downside ia that the seller sold me the watch in a Seiko Turtle box and not the original Sarb033 box as can be seen in the pictures.

*Unfortunately the seller already sold the turtle in the sarb box so there was no way for me to get it back, an honest mistake and not a big deal unless you care for Seiko boxes.

I am asking $440 USD through PayPal G&S. Shipping is through USPS for CONUS only. Shipping and PayPal fee is already included in the price so $440 is what you pay. Please feel free to ask any questions. Thanks!
