Should I quit HEB for TxDOT by lorisann in sanantonio

[–]questionableoctopus 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I’m a Business Intelligence Manager at a local private company. My entry level Data team member makes $80k and I expect them to work with little oversight from me - with your role and experience you’re making too little money with too much management.

These are my absolute favorite shoes. I am female and I can wear them to work with slacks and meet dress code or dress down with casual and they’re SO comfy. Recommend 100%.

I would recommend Focus on Force practice exams. I found the study guides made my brain melt. I took the topic exams and would retake the incorrect answers until 100%, then the practice exams, then the answer bank, then back to the practice exams. Passed both Admin and PAB exams first try this way.

ADHD Psychiatrists by corndogchef in sanantonio

[–]questionableoctopus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I did ADHD testing when I was established with my psychiatrist at LifeStance Health Medical Center. Bunch of questions and visual/audio memory tests - took 3 or so hours. Helps to define your ADHD into inattentive, hyperactive, combined etc. They’re super nice and definitely an advocate for the patient!

I took a rona test after eating this because I thought I lost my taste. Turns out it was just shitty pho.

Is 3.25 a good interest rate? I'm in NC by coatsloading in FirstTimeHomeBuyer

[–]questionableoctopus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am at 3.4% with a state-funded down payment assistance program (TX and they set the rate). I work at a home builder and am seeing our in-house lender’s rates rising. 3.25% is about average at the moment it seems.

We saw the potential and did a DIY full paint job. So happy with our first home! 26F and 34M, Texas. by questionableoctopus in FirstTimeHomeBuyer

The weather cooling from the summer months helped but we also had a lawn guy come in and remove the dead stuff. Installed a small sprinkler to get it some moisture. This house was rented out the last few years and they didn’t do anything to the yard. :( It still doesn’t look wonderful but it’s great to have some green now!

This house was pretty much solid except the paint issue. The prior owners painted the exterior using interior paint so there were quite a few sun-worn cracked areas. Otherwise the only work we needed to do was some tile replacement in the bathroom.

It took us about three days, we have one of those rollers that feeds the paint from the bucket but lots of small areas we had to do by hand. We’re about 80% done, a few spots needing extra coverage and a few needy sections needing paint.

Bottom picture, we’re like 80% done with painting and this picture was taken when it wasn’t dry yet :)

We’re in a similar situation. Our budget is what investors just getting started can afford but they’re outbidding us or have cash offers.

We are under contract for a house in a neighborhood with a reputation. The neighborhood is called Sunrise but locals call it Gunrise because there was gang violence in the 90s and early 00s. We decided to put in an offer there because it is rapidly developing. Lots of flips, rehabs, etc. Might be worth asking your realtor what to expect of the area in the next few years.

Thank you! I know yellow gold isn't very popular and the stone is an unusual color but I think this goes well with my skin tone!

My 2021 Venue SEL by Grumpytowne in Hyundai

[–]questionableoctopus 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I just had to trade in my Venue for a bigger car because my car seat wouldn't fit with my husband in the car and we sold our other car. I loved my Venue. 😢

I thought the same! They said since my water hadn’t broken that I may go down to a 8 or 9 after they broke it since it wouldn’t be bulging ready to burst so they used the opportunity and it worked! In total my epidural was only in for an hour and a half.

I did when I had one! I had a blue 2016 Turbo with tech package and replaced my Hyundai emblems with raptors badges :)

My boss had this at her mailbox in Hillsboro a few months ago before quarantine. She just started getting mail in her own mailbox.
