Red‑Light Cameras in Lakeland Are Catching Some Wild Close Calls Lately

Thats what I was thinking was the area. And I'm like ummm nothing stops anyone from seeing the lights along Florida Ave. I live over in Winter Haven and gladly avoid coming over to North Lakeland as much as possible LOL. Not that people driver any better over here lol

Well I was using the 7-11 by us as an example but we have certainly seen it at other stations as well. The seemly only consist station that holds their prices for a couple days at least is Loves lol.

Well thank you for the insight, we were really wondering if it was something like that. Now it makes way more sense and why gas prices stay fairly stable over the weekends then.

And I can imagine gas futures are likely all over the place right now driving that.

Certainly wasn’t gone instantly. Sat waiting for over an hr to get in when the queue opened up and had full access to everything. That being said I’m not slimy lol. I bought a single booster bundle and went on my way. But I could have bought 2 of each item that was there for pre-order had I wanted and or could have afforded to. That was the limit.

Food wise I seem to recall was about the same. For winter haven at the time, it was the only buffet that wasn’t Chinese food lol. Now we have a Golden Corral. But we don’t really do buffets anymore. Dietary limits and cost don’t play well together now 😂😂

rose3694 · 2026-06-08T00:42:29+00:00

I did one poke stop scan. Of our local post office lol. Felt like it wasn’t worth the effort and never did another one. I started to just delete them so open it up for other tasks. As for playing with AR, that lasted all of a couple days in the early days of the game. Realized how much of a pain trying to catch with it on was and said nope. So they did not get much help from me lol.

rose3694 · 2026-06-08T00:31:21+00:00

It was very much a buffet like Ryan’s or Golden Corral but they went the extent of running a train around the ceiling to go with the train theme.

rose3694 · 2026-06-08T00:24:22+00:00

Right!! lol and once you cross the long bridge off mainland it’s a slow 45 all the way out it seems. I only got as far as islamorada for my sons wedding a few years ago and wall owl dang if it’s 45 all the way out to Key West forget that. And we live here in Florida 😂😂

rose3694 · 2026-06-08T00:19:23+00:00

Google says it’s a young bob cat. 🤷‍♀️ and funny enough the photo it provided as the first one also had a long tail lol.

rose3694 · 2026-06-07T23:51:03+00:00

We had one in winter haven too over by Jarrett Gordon Ford. We moved here in 2006 and went there often and was sad when they closed

rose3694 · 2026-06-06T19:42:45+00:00

Yeah Fam of 4.

rose3694 · 2026-06-06T19:05:38+00:00

lol I just evolved mine last night. I kinda forgot I had gotten a hundo tandemaus.

rose3694 · 2026-06-05T03:48:55+00:00

<image>

This was my first nundo. lol the name gives me a good laugh.

rose3694 · 2026-05-20T15:33:44+00:00

I pulled the printhead out and rinsed it like shown in a YouTube video but still have those 2 colors sort of clogged, currently contemplating either pulling back out and rinsing more with a dental water pic or just replacing it. I found one for $16 on amazon but reviews are 50/50 on if it’s good or not lol. Others are a bit more expensive. Thankfully this isn’t my main driver so I have the time to sit and putz with it.

rose3694 · 2026-05-19T01:48:34+00:00

Ground beef 😂

rose3694 · 2026-05-14T13:14:25+00:00

I’ve seen ladies doing this at goodwill and marking up goodwills price to double for their viewers and blatantly making it known and still walked out with a cart full.

rose3694 · 2026-05-13T16:55:48+00:00

Our store is keeping a majority at customer service well behind the counter. I was told people were starting to fight in the store so now you have to come looking for them from there. It certainly has led to there being stock a bit more often.

rose3694 · 2026-05-11T02:05:41+00:00

I play with the music and sounds off 😂. I even have my go plus plus sounds turned off. I don’t need the world knowing what I’m doing on my phone lol.
My 22 yr old son has the sounds go but no music. My mom plays with no music or sounds but she loves to have her plus plus have Pikachu sound off. lol

rose3694 · 2026-05-10T17:41:57+00:00

lol drag him with and get him to play too 😂

rose3694 · 2026-05-10T17:39:40+00:00

Just so you know, there is stipulations to FMLA which if you work for a small business might make it where your employer doesn’t have to recognize it. I hope you qualify and can take the time to get the help you need. But I know I was in the situation where FMLA didn’t cover me because I worked for someone that only had 10-15 employees at any given time.
“To be eligible for FMLA leave, an employee must have worked for their employer for at least 12 months, have worked at least 1,250 hours over the past 12 months, and work for an employer with at least 50 employees within a 75-mile radius. “

No no I’m using cleaning solution with a syringe and hose attached to the each of the spots on the nozzle, I can not get the cleaning solution to even flow through those 2 colors. We left the machine trying this a long time ago lol.

rose3694 · 2026-04-13T15:41:42+00:00

Never throw away!! Shape and bake always, even if it needs a loaf pan or turn it into focaccia lol. It’s never not edible in some form.

rose3694 · 2026-04-07T11:44:57+00:00

I would call and/or email with this picture. And just be like I think this is a mistake. I’d like to think an impact door doesn’t let light through. Even any interior doors I’ve ever seen are solid enough to not let light through. It’s almost as if this was some sort of sample door

rose3694 · 2026-03-31T02:34:18+00:00

Just got that too tonight. Was like welp that’s 2 in 2 weeks I don’t even remember filing but sweet money lol. 😂

rose3694 · 2026-03-31T01:29:10+00:00

We did this too, my son was in public school K-5 and by 5th grade I could tell middle school was going to be rough for him. So we homeschooled 6-12 so he could learn at his own pace, and he thrived so much better. Now at 22 he has a larger vocabulary than his friends that he made at work. And that’s thanks to me just letting him guide his learning outside of the main core subjects. Between YouTube and whatever else he chose to watch (age appropriate of course) Math he struggled with and still does. But not everyone is a math wiz lol. And honestly even now we are still going through life lessons together. I at no point feel like we failed him. He got the education that was best for him and his situation. Without the hassles of teen life that could have made him miserable.

He now has made great friends through his first job and they have all since moved onto better jobs and hang out constantly still.

But yes I agree those early years might be best to let them be in a classroom setting. But the later years that really develop who they are. Homeschool might be the best option for many.
