Posted by kimmieb on 4/18/24 at 11:22 am

It is a beautiful place but, not surprised that the condos aren't selling in this market with interest rates so high. I've been to both restaurants in the hotel and they were good but, super expensive IMO. ...

re: My Mom has been getting worse with her dementia

Posted by kimmieb on 3/29/24 at 12:22 pm

Talk to her doctors and try to get home health services including OT. My Mom had a great home health provider that sent a nurse to her home as well as someone to help organize meds and it's all covered by Medicare. OT can help with safety in the home which is important for dementia patients. It's...

re: If you were given 5 million dollars tax free today, would you keep working?

Posted by kimmieb on 3/21/24 at 4:14 pm

Yes I would but, definitely would take more time off to travel more. Would probably retire earlier than planned though. I work from home though and my schedule is flexible. If it was an office job then hell no, I wouldn't work anymore. ...

re: Anyone ever do lasik?

Posted by kimmieb on 3/13/24 at 4:43 pm

yes, had it around age 30. Needed contacts/glasses again 20 years later but, I usually don't wear them my script before lasix was -2.5 in both eyes now it's like -.5. I also am old now and need reading glasses. Would definitely do it all over again. It is great but, it doesn't necessarily last f...

re: If any of y'all have a child that swims competitively, we can all celebrate.

Posted by kimmieb on 2/26/24 at 1:19 pm

Keep it fun. One of my kids swam in college and left the team after 2 years. At that level it is brutal on the body and mentally. Just like any sport at that level, it's like a full time job. It was much less expensive than other travel sports and the travel was minimal except for the higher le...

re: To what level do you just completely dismiss someone that lists their pronouns anywhere?

Posted by kimmieb on 2/23/24 at 4:57 pm

I don't dismiss them at all just try to be respectful and sometimes forget. I don't list mine though on social or email. I'm in cybersecurity which attracts more creative types and there are a lot of interesting characters. I spent over 20 years in more traditional infrastructure tech and that wa...

re: Do you think taking vitamins & minerals supplements does anything?

Posted by kimmieb on 2/2/24 at 12:53 pm

If my lab results say I am deficient in something important then, I take that vitamin or mineral. No point in paying for supplements you don't necessarily need unless, there is some benefit in doing so that is documented that you see benefit from. With that said I take Zinc, Boron, Vitamin B inj...

re: Saban did not build LSU into a powerhouse. Mark Emmert did.

Posted by kimmieb on 1/11/24 at 9:41 am

I would argue it was the combination of the two. They were the first duo of professional coach and AD at LSU. I knew the first time I went with my Dad to hear Saban speak at the Gridiron Club lunch right after he was hired, he was different. His level of professionalism was refreshing and all busi...

re: What’s your 1 stock pick for 2024?

Posted by kimmieb on 1/11/24 at 8:32 am

NVDA, LLY, NVO. LLY and NVO due to growth in the GLP market reach with their recent partnerships and expansion overseas. NVDA because for some unknown reason, they keep on going. Overall, I'm going to stick with the bigger names in 2024 and stay away from the speculative ones. I don't seem to ...

we even bought a little sticker sign off Amazon and put it on our trash can asking people not to put their dog poop in our can.... Doesn't stop them. I don't mind if it is before the trash is picked up but, ours is picked up after we go to work and before we come home at night and put the can up an...
