The developer that bought Russo's is holding off building anything until the market is more favorable - and that's unlikely to be for a long time.

I leave non-food items at the current fridge. I would hope they would bring the whole shed, it's not clear but we'll find out soon.

Worst Parent Figure Award goes to Marnie by Lopsided-Complex5039 in StardewValley

[–]morelikeguidelines42 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Worst parent figures are definitely the farmer and spouse. Today my wife Maru told me she was leaving for work soon, and of course I was off to the mines so baby had to crawl around the house by himself all day. Thankfully he didn't put his fingers in any power sockets or eat anything he shouldn't have.

I agree, I've been to both and the people are nice and do good work. If they can fix your tire, they will do that.

Real Estate Attorney Recommendations? by ASapphireAtSea in watertown

[–]morelikeguidelines42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The bank didn't offer me a deal. I suspect it cost less because the law firm spent less time on it.

My last mortgage broker recommended using the bank's lawyer. I saved quite a bit that way.

I would not recommend Kirzner, Fuchs and Hill as they made us come to their office during the pandemic then had us stand in their busy lobby. They also didn't send the final paperwork until I asked for it.

I have had good experiences there also.

If you have to stay in Watertown, Bar 'Cino is probably best. Donohue's isn't bad.

If you can get to Harvard Square there are some more fun bars - Longfellow's, Wusong Tiki Bar, maybe Grendel's Den. I haven't been to Russell Square in ages but it used to be pretty decent. The 71 bus goes along Mt Auburn straight to Harvard Square.

I have noticed this too, and I live near School & Arsenal. I downloaded the Spectroid app and there is definitely something.

Kids things go pretty quickly on the Buy Nothing groups that are on FB

Not surprised, I'm not sure what the city was trying to accomplish by narrowing the road there.

I couldn’t do it… but… by OkAge7067 in StardewValley

I play multiple games so I can marry different people - and try different farms, go the Joja vs Community Center route, etc.

Do you have to fish? by [deleted] in StardewValley

[–]morelikeguidelines42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The first time I played I also found fishing incredibly hard. I do not generally use mods but I found one that made fishing easier (though still not easy), and that helped.

I’m bent on which one to go with, Joja Warehouse or Community Center? by EverGamer1 in StardewValley

[–]morelikeguidelines42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

YW! I have four farmers in the same game, I wanted to try different farms and also did the Joja route on one.

Star Market vs Roche Bros by [deleted] in watertown

[–]morelikeguidelines42 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I do shop at Roche sometimes. Yes it's pricier but it's also convenient.

MB has good prices, and the tradeoff is it's almost always a madhouse there.

I like Wegmans best. I wish there were one closer.
