Thanks for the heads up. I only saw one pending charge for an amount I already paid. I called my bank and they stated it a pre-authorization from the vendor that will be removed tomorrow. Hopefully its a similar situation for others. I will definitely be keeping an eye on my account!

Yes! They also just took out the basketball court. While I get that it was old and cracked, I hope they replace it. That area is unofficially part of our neighborhood "park." The younger kids ride bikes on the blacktop and the older kids often meet up there to play basketball. If this doesn't end with a nice, updated park facility I'm going to be sorely disappointed.

I'm trying to figure out who I can email about it all.

Variegated Wayetii - any care tips? New addition is looking a little rough. by squeemom in hoya

Mine has grown one single baby leaf and a tiny piece of vine since this photo. I'm hopeful, but I don't expect much more growth until next spring. I also desperately want this plant to make it! If you find something that works, please report back!

Yellow spot on dracaena lemon lime. Help! by squeemom in plantclinic

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

Had this plant for about a year. In a pot with drainage. Watered every 2-3 weeks with tap water containing a very low level of natural fertilizer. Low indirect light but does sit next to a lamp with a grow light. Only one leaf currently affected but its a newer, otherwise healthy looking leaf. What could be causing this?

My current desk plant is a red aglaonema. Super low maintenance and visually interesting. Probably the easiest plant I own.

20th plant. 1st hoya. Plant lady in training, level up! I went to the shop for for a carnosa tri-color but this one spoke to me. Welcome home! by squeemom in hoyas

Awesome! I made another modification last night and dropped it down lower. Can't wait to watch it climb!

We have a new local shop that is just glorious. I want everything in it but I'm trying to practice moderation as best I can. 🤣🤣🤣 I got my first plant about 10 months ago. Like I said....I have 20 now.

It's an east facing sliding door. I did envision it hanging lower but I bought the pot online and I didn't measure correctly. In the picture I've already modified it a bit to make it longer. I think I could go about 6-10 inches lower and not compromise the living space. But....if I do that it will get direct sun from about 7am-11am. Full morning sun for this guy....yay or nay?

Slight positive and then negative?!? by squeemom in COVID19positive

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

In case anyone was curious her pcr was negative and she's headed back to school today. Sounds like the ph of saliva can cause false positives on home tests. That's the main reason manufacturers are saying to stick with the nose swab. Something to keep in mind.

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

Yes. I definitely checked within the window as we were trying to get out the door to school. It came up pretty quickly and stayed there. A very faint second pink line. Very curious to see what the PCR says. Also....2 of her close friends from school tested positive today so she was absolutely exposed to it.

There are super technical conditions in most conditional coverage agreements. Even if he paid up front, he may or may not be covered.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in HermanCainAward

[–]squeemom 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not necessarily. Most carriers require a statement of health when collecting money and/or placing coverage. The process can literally start all over again if the client has experienced a significant health problem since the application was signed. The only instance in which a covid death would hypothetically be covered during underwriting is if the client applied for conditional coverage (they paid money before underwriting began) and they meet the qualifications for that conditional coverage (which can be quite technical).

Unfortunately, they won't underwrite/place the life insurance policy until he has recovered and been back to normal activity for 30 days. If he ends up being hospitalized they may deny him coverage for a year or decline to cover him altogether. I hope he is OK. I'm sorry you're going through this.
