  1. I buy my glasses solely at Costco. My Costco is an hours drive away. However, my prescription bifocal glasses are pricey and the last time I checked, I still saved over $200 at Costco even with their membership fee. I let my membership run out until I have to purchase new glasses, then I get a Costco membership, and order my glasses there. I walk around the store the day I order my glasses, and the day I pick them up. Mostly, I don't purchase anything else but it's fun to look.
  2. We are on one not listed, and so far they have covered what I submitted to them in full within a couple months. There is a deductible that we had to meet first. We used to have Liberty and moved from them prior to their restructuring and significant rate increase. It took nearly a year to be reimbursed for medical expense with them but they may have things better now. We are self employed and the reality is we either have health sharing or nothing. Thankfully we did not have pre-existing medical conditions.
  3. I'm so sorry! What a shock! Way too young.
  4. I'm thinking back to when my boys were that age. Things they enjoyed were The Dangerous Book for Boys, and the ultimate Diabolo set.
  5. I buy my wool socks off Amazon. I wear men's wool socks though and the thicker the better for me. I don't notice any tightness around the ankles but then I'm buying cheaper ones rather than name brand.
  6. We have significant die off of all our Ash trees due to the Emerald Ash-bore beetle. You can scan the woods and see the dead tree tops. I hear of another invasive species that targets Maple trees that will likely arrive eventually. Some of the local woods are made up of over 80% Ash trees so it's a significant die off.
  7. Echoing what Cat said. I'm mostly a lurker but I am so touched by the dedication you have toward your son. I so wish it was an easier road/load you were walking/carrying.
  8. Prices for parts make me gasp almost every time. That's even IF you can find the part. I am thankful for a machine shop that has made parts for us. It continues to be a challenge to find parts. You can try to stock gobs of parts but sometimes it's just not realistic. Who has funds to stock every part you might need on every piece of equipment?
  9. Thank you. We're finally getting rain. Equipment breakdowns have been rough. Exhaustion is real.
  10. We are thinking about adding a porch on to our home. I'm in search of software that would allow me to upload a picture of our home and then see what a porch would look like on it. Neither my dh or myself are visual people and we'd like to be able to actually "see" what a porch would look like, being able to make it bigger or smaller, before we just hire a builder to add one. We do have a builder who has priced one but he doesn't have software that allows us to actually see what it would look like. Thought I'd come to the Hive as you all are so resourceful. Thanks!
  11. We had to have a new bank card sent and they are dreadfully behind. I was told to expect a minimum of 6 weeks. It sounded like there's one company that issues them nationwide and they are very far behind? I hope that's not the case for you!
  12. I'm so very sorry! Praying for you. Grief is exhausting and overwhelming. Big hugs.
