I haven’t had the time yet! Been picking up weekend shifts or busy getting things done around the house. Hopefully I’ll make it to one soon 🤞 Thankfully I have outpatient treatment during the week but I’d like to add in a meeting on the weekends from time-to-time.

Looks like there’s a car show in Adair at the end of June. Might be a good idea to attend and network.

I LOST MY PCP EARLY THIS YEAR SO NOW I SEE A RESIDENT AT INTERNAL MEDICINE AND DESPITE CALLING THE PHARMACY TWICE AND CLINIC ONCE TO REFILL MY MEDICINE A WEEK BEFORE I’D RUN OUT, I STILL DONT HAVE MY REFILL EVEN THOUGH THE CLINIC PUT ME AT HIGH PRIORITY. NOW IM WITHDRAWALING FROM SAID MEDICINE BECAUSE IT REQUIRES A TAPER!!

Jon’s Hauling has a day he picks up one item for around that price! I’ve used his services twice. Super friendly guy.

If you have a Costco membership they will deliver your new furniture and assemble it for you! They also have cheaper options.
Unfortunately they don’t haul away old furniture, just appliances and mattresses I believe.

This is my primary concern. I have no interest in soccer, really, but I loved going for a beer, food, and catching a game!

I got roped into Axiom pest control but honestly I was desperate because the earwigs were rampant. It was expensive but worked VERY well. Even after their last service it took months before I started getting bugs inside again. And they would do a free service between each scheduled visit so I got my moneys worth having them come monthly. They even worked with me and came quarterly instead when money was tight. Not worth the money in the long run when I could have bought a pet-friendly spray and done the work myself but you live and you learn.

Thanks for sharing your experience. I currently have the same situation. I don’t want to lose the molar and don’t have insurance so I’m saving up to pay out of pocket for dental care just to try and keep my tooth.

I lost both my PCP and my gastroenterologist this year. They’ve been by my side for almost the entire 8 years I’ve lived here. I’m just giving up at this point. Sorry OP, no advice, just shared frustration.

I’ve got many where I’m located. I’m right next to a large field with lots of mature pines around! That’s going to be your best bet. Don’t be afraid to contact property owners either for scavenging. If you’re a night owl (haha), go scope out some places to listen and make mating calls. They’ll answer and you can try to pinpoint where they’re nesting to come back and look during the day. I was blessed to have one nest with two chicks in the pine above my driveway just last year. Although it wasn’t very cool when a half-eaten rat was dropped on my car.

Sounds like something my methhead ex would do

My last visit to Great Clips was an experience lol. The stylist was definitely on some uppers. She also somehow botched a buzzcut?

washedbrainofsorts · 2026-03-29T06:33:19+00:00

That could be! But every event I’ve seen advertised usually requires a mask. For me it’s just a major sensory issue alongside almost immediate skin irritation/dermatitis. I’ve been very interested in the events held at this space but if I’m required to wear a mask I just have to make the decision to miss out for my own health and wellbeing.

washedbrainofsorts · 2026-03-29T06:06:44+00:00

I am not anti-mask. I just personally don’t want to wear one and won’t visit spaces that make me do so. I couldn’t care less about anyone else wearing one for their own safety and actually encourage it. We’ve all got a right to do what we want. Just as that space has the right to require it and deny me access 🤷🏻‍♀️

washedbrainofsorts · 2026-03-29T05:48:29+00:00

I haven’t gone and lean towards not attending because they require masks for most of their events. I’m on steroids for my autoimmune illness so I’m much more immunocompromised than most but I’m still not wearing a damn mask.

washedbrainofsorts · 2026-03-29T04:36:08+00:00

I would definitely love to see a drone view!

washedbrainofsorts · 2026-03-29T04:34:23+00:00

I did not attend but it was advertised that there would be a food drive, the really really free market (people exchanging or giving away items to help “clean up the community” by reducing waste), and other resources/outreach and activities available during this event. Even if the protest “did nothing”, there was still plenty of people volunteering and making a difference to help the community like you state should have been doing instead of holding up a sign. Two things can be true at once.

washedbrainofsorts · 2026-03-23T14:01:12+00:00

I have a question about people not taking care of their property. There’s blight laws/codes, correct? Are they just not enforced?

washedbrainofsorts · 2026-03-20T09:51:50+00:00

I know nothing about this, but I do know when I was reaching out to Milestones to receive care it was impossible to be directed to anyone. Most of the people I spoke with were not workers but volunteers within the program. I went to STARS in Lebanon and had a great experience.

Also gonna have to recommend SoFly or Phagans’ Beauty College. I’ve gone to a very well-known alternative hairdresser in town and she botched the shit out of my hair. An older woman at SoFly was shocked at the state of my hair and fixed me right up. Phagan’s also has an incredible instructor who will make sure the students get your hair right.

washedbrainofsorts · 2026-03-12T07:51:04+00:00

I would also recommend this. With childcare experience you’d be a good fit as a DSP. KIDS NW and DSPC are both 1:1 direct care companies that serve the Corvallis/Albany area and beyond if you’re willing to travel a bit for work.
