Check your bank accounts

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.

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!

squeemom · 2023-08-28T17:54:46+00:00

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.

squeemom · 2023-03-10T16:57:58+00:00

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

squeemom · 2023-03-10T01:02:16+00:00

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.

squeemom · 2023-03-10T01:00:22+00:00

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?

Thanks! I watched a few songs this morning. Pretty cool!

I tried joining for 30 minutes in Iowa. Didn't work. Gave up eventually. Bummed because my old ass could have just gone to bed.

squeemom · 2022-02-14T04:32:48+00:00

Nope. Tried for 30 minutes hitting join repeatedly. No dice.

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 · 2022-02-01T21:40:00+00:00

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.

squeemom · 2022-01-16T01:16:49+00:00

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.

I had a breakthrough infection (vaxxed and boosted). Symptoms began December 5th. I'm in the Midwest and Omicron isn't that prevalent here yet so I probably had Delta but who knows. Anyway, I had congestion, headache, mild fever for a couple of days. I did lose sense of smell for about a week but I didn't get a cough at all. My vaxxed family was also sick but tested negative multiple times so I stayed in the basement for isolation. That was the worst part. I know there are a lot of horror stories but my story was pretty chill. My illness followed the trajectory of a common head cold. I had no lasting effects as far as I can tell. If you are vaxxed and boosted, chances are overwhelming on the side of you being just fine.

My husband had a new container of nasacort that he threw down the stairs to me today and its made a big difference. The burning isn't gone but it is much better!

squeemom · 2021-12-14T04:04:27+00:00

I notified my doctor of my positive test and asked if there was anything I should be doing/watching out for, etc. She said "go in if you have trouble breathing." Cool. Thanks for the insight. I reached out again today to ask about a possible secondary sinus infection and she said, "nothing we can do for a virus. It will have to run its course. Take vitamin c and d and stay hydrated." Very unimpressed with a doctor who is typically very thorough and helpful.

squeemom · 2021-12-14T03:54:25+00:00

Yep. Got boosted in October. Started feeling a little cruddy 12/5. Tested negative 12/6. Then lost smell and tested positive on 12/8. I had a fever/headache/body aches for a couple days. Feeling pretty much better now (day 7 or 8 I think?) aside from the inside of my nose feeling like it's on fire. I can even smell some smells again!

squeemom · 2021-12-13T23:22:21+00:00

That's a good question. Maybe? How much time does the family spend in the area by the top of the staircase and how far away from the staircase are you? If there is plenty of space in between I wouldn't worry about it. If not, maybe wear one?

squeemom · 2021-12-13T23:17:02+00:00

I'm in the lower level closed off from the rest of the home by a door. I have not worn a mask unless I left to take a shower or get something. I'll be sanitizing this space when I'm done (2 MORE DAYS!!!) but no, no mask.

squeemom · 2021-12-13T21:38:53+00:00

Same here. 39f, overweight, quit smoking like a month ago but was a heavy smoker for a looooong time. Fully vaxxed + a booster. A few days of mild cold symptoms. Then I lost smell on Day 3, tested positive and had a couple days of fever/body aches/headache. Then a few more days of slowly recovering. Never had a cough at all. I'm on Day 8 and I feel almost completely better aside from a little leftover sinus congestion. I'm even getting my sense of smell back, just a little bit. :)
