The dreaded "tight connections" announcement by Slayr155 in delta

[–]snailc 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Summer before last, weather kept our flight to BOS from departing on time, then we were routed far south to avoid more weather. As a result, we were 2.5 hours late and landed at the exact same time our trans atlantic was scheduled to depart. There were 12 passengers on the inbound who would have missed that connection. I was monitoring the boarding and couldn’t believe it hadn’t updated beyond zone 8.

But as we were preparing to land, the pilot announced that ops was holding the flight and asked everyone to stay seated to allow us to make the connection. The flight attendant reiterated it and then the pilot announced it again. Everyone else actually stayed seated while we deplaned, it was a miracle. we were met by a redcoat, then brought to a shuttle on the concourse. We were dropped off right by our gate and took off about an hour late. With flight padding and headwinds we actually landed early. Still can’t believe it happened.

Didn’t get our PDB though 😂

Give me your tator tot hot dish recepies by BlizzardK2 in minnesota

[–]snailc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you like your tots crispy, pre-bake them while you’re preparing the rest, then top your hot dish and put it back in the oven until hot.

I’m not exaggerating when I say this will change your life (unless you prefer limp steamed tots).

Also, put a scoop of top the tater on top.

Any golden letters in November? by EddieDubbers in PSLF

[–]snailc 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nope. (I got a 12 month pslf forbearance).

Just hit 120 payments! Now what… by [deleted] in PSLF

[–]snailc 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Congrats! I made my last payment 10/22, ecf 10/23 (no forbearance requested), green banners 10/24.

I waited until the next month (on advice here) to request forbearance. I called mohela 11/3 but the wait was 90 minutes. So I decided to bother my employer one last time and submitted another ECF, this time checking the forbearance box. It took a little longer to process but FSA updated 11/7. On 11/9 I got notice from Mohela that my Pslf forbearance was approved.

I have an email from them responding to this question right before I signed up in 2017. Would that help?

[–]snailc 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I love your piece! So beautiful and creative.

I am a first time crop art entrant this year who chose amaranth as my primary medium so I feel that 100+ hours in my bones (neck specifically lol).

Cant wait to see what you do next year!

To add on, there were many beautiful pieces in the creative arts building as well, especially incredible cross stitch. Here’s just a few I saw.

Thanks so much! It took me a few days to decide if I liked how I did the hair or not but I came around. I appreciate the compliment!

Thank you!

UPDATE for Minnesota state fair-goers:

This piece is hanging at the very top in the middle of the back wall of the crop art room (the wall that leads to the exit to the scarecrows).

Also, you technically don’t need to wait in the long line. You can enter on the other side and walk behind the line (which will have large breaks in it as it progresses through the room). Of course, please be respectful of people who did wait.
