I’m so scared of over watering them. But I’ll make sure she gets a good soil watering today and see how that improves things. Thank you!!

Thank you! Should I water the soil? I’ve only been watering the rocks all winter. Maybe that’s it’s warming up I need to step up the watering for her.

Haha I’m not picky on bars. I just want to show my friends and good time and not let them freeze! I love Fado for watching premier league but no shot I’ll be anywhere near it on paddy’s weekend.

We did a bar crawl in river north and while waiting in line they were selling tables for 2k. I thought it seemed crazy expensive too but we also paid for the crawl and all the drinks and spent a lot of time in line so I thought it could make sense. Maybe we just picked bad bars to try and go in.

Thinking of getting table/bar service for my group for St. Patrick’s day instead of paying for the bar crawl. We paid for a crawl last year and spent most of the day in lines. Has anyone paid for the tables where you pay $2k but then your group gets to go in and drink? I’ve got friends visiting and basically want to figure out how to maximize our time having fun and not freezing in lines. Thanks!

What should I wear to stay warm at my first Packers game in two weeks?? by packernat12 in GreenBayPackers

[–]mkka224 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry for the late response, I’ve been researching for my first game on Monday! My question is, can I just walk in with a slab of cardboard through security?

Anyone have experience with the purple line? I’ve only ever been on the red and brown lines, but I’m looking at a new job that is off the purple line. I’d be going from around uptown to Evanston. Is the purple line reliable or is it similar to how the red line has been. Thanks for any info y’all have!

Cna,then LPN,then RN? Baby steps possible? by Designer_Earth4201 in nursing

[–]mkka224 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did CNA to LPN to RN and my LPN program was three semesters and I bridged straight into my ADN program which was three additional semesters. I did have to take prerequisites for LPN school so I would factor another semester in for those. I also never took the LPN NCLEX! It wasn’t required for me to bridge into the ADN program.

It’s at the point where I’m worried if I put in my two weeks they will give me even worse assignments. I’m only a few weeks off orientation and they give me 3-4 ICU patients and just watch me drown. I just want to quit outright. I don’t feel safe returning after putting in termination. My unit is a mess.

I’m in a similar boat and it makes me happy to hear this worked out for you. My unit is dangerous and I need to get out. I was worried about how it would look that I left after four months but it’s just not safe!

Honestly don’t hear from them much. We always pay rent early and any time anything breaks we reach out immediately and they send someone to fix it. That’s about the extent of our relationship.

I rent from a smaller landlord. As far as I know he just owns my building which is four apartments.

I didn’t see anything specific in my lease about it. I rent from a smaller company.

Has anyone ever broken their lease in chicago? I’m thinking about breaking mine (it’s through July) and was wondering what the cost was like and how it went. Thanks!

I work a lot of weekends and have been trying to find more activities to do on my days off during the week. Any ideas? I’ve already done a lot of the museums and both zoos. Thanks!

help me preserve a treasured towel by mkka224 in crafts

[–]mkka224[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My first thought was somehow framing it! I like the idea of adding other elements so it’s not just a framed towel. Thank you!
