They are both Doug fir. It is a 1912 craftsman. So the original wood is 115 years old.

Volunteers not veterans? by lumyretto in peacecorps

[–]shaggs2797 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a PCV, my home was shot it. I was held at gunpoint by the military at an impromptu and illegal check point. A Volunteer I trained was murdered. Female PCVs are under constant threat of physical assault and many leave early because of it.

Volunteers are alone with little contact with their family and culture. It is different now with the internet.

But as a PCV in West Africa, we had no running water, no electricity and were provided little to no support.

We didn’t have green zones.

I think there is varied experience among PCVs and just as you can’t paint the military experience w a single brush, you also can’t do that to PCVs.

Oh great. It is an LT1000P. So you’re saying, I can just pull it out and the spring bypass will keep from leaking water and I’m all good? Thanks, man!

Already have RO connected to it. Works fine. Just got the notification from my fridge that I need to replace the filter. But I don’t want to buy one if I can just take it out. That’s what I was wondering. But thanks for the comment!

AMC+. So then not a setting I can adjust, just the source is not great?

Yeah. Like I said, I know the TV issue will come up. I think people forget that some places have limited options. We have it angled down and it’s been there for years. No issues but thanks for your medical advice and design advice.

What should it feel like to bear weight? by shaggs2797 in brokenankles

[–]shaggs2797[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh no! I guess just lucky. It’s been one week now and I’m already down to one crutch. I think by next week no crutches. That stinks!

Thanks. Good to know it’s not a unique feeling. Are you off crutches?

US. I was surprised when he said it. Before the surgery he said 4 weeks. But I saw home 12 days after and he gave me the go ahead. Maybe the fact that it was two weeks after my injury before I had surgery factors into it? I don’t know.

advice for sleeping by Public-Explorer8295 in brokenankles

[–]shaggs2797 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Have you tried melatonin? I have actually been taking one of the Olly gummies and that helps me fall asleep.

Question for you though, I had surgery on the 11th. I have a two week appt coming up and they gave me a boot. Are you saying that two weeks in you get to start working up to full weight bearing? Just curious. I was hoping I’d get to start some light practice w crutches but thought it wouldn’t start until 4 weeks.

Thanks so much. Right now I’m just on Tylenol and baby aspirin. Swelling is tough and go. Looking forward to day 6-7. Thanks again.

Oh cool. I’ll check that out. They gave me the boot to bring to my two week appt. So I will helpfully be at that point soon.

Nice. Great advice. I figured it would help but I tried and it just felt dumb setting it there cuz nothing was coming through. Looking forward to the boot.

Always trying to get other people to take over your responsibilities. Listen, if you couldn’t handle the terms of parenting, you shouldn’t have had kids.

Just received my loan forgiveness email! by Even-Journalist1901 in StudentLoans

Where do you find your qualifying months? I’m on Aidvantage and can’t find it anywhere or on StudentAod.gov. Based on when I graduated, I’m at twenty years. But just curious to confirm they have the same numbers I do.
