Louisiana 529 plan tax forms
Posted by Simon Gruber on 1/29/26 at 9:39 am
I opened a 529 account last year, when are the tax forms usually available from the Startsaving.la website? Do u even need them if I know how much I’ve contributed for 2025 when doing my tax returns?
re: Fiber home installation question
Posted by Simon Gruber on 1/7/26 at 9:04 pm to Dallaswho
I might run it up the exterior wall and into the attic myself. The problem with going up the wall into the soffit on my house is the cable is black, my house is white and the side the house I assume they will want to tap into is the driveway side. I think me and the wife can handle a small box on that side of the house but not a black cable going all the way up the wall. I’m sure I could get some white enclosed raceway but not sure that wouldn’t look out of place either.

When REV installed fiber at my house I spoke to the installer when he was a few houses down. I told him how far it was from the entry point to my routers through the attic. He said they couldn't run it but he could give me enough wire to run myself and they would tie into when he came. So I took the wire and had it all run for him when he got to my house.
I could be comfortable doing this. I don’t think I could terminate the fiber myself though. Did you run it from the attic down an exterior wall to the entrance point on exterior of your house?

Doubt they’ll want to do more than drill a small hole in the soffit and plug with a slit grommet to reach the attic though.
This is my concern.
Not sure if it’s fiber to ONT or modem or both.
Fiber home installation question
Posted by Simon Gruber on 1/7/26 at 11:33 am
REV is running fiber in my neighborhood currently. I noticed the put the box for home connections on the opposite side of my property from where my current connection is.
My media closet is closer to the current connection point so the cable comes into the wall goes up to the attic and down into the media closet which is a fairly short distance.
Will they be able to run the new fiber line into the wall up to the attic and across the house and down to the media closet? I estimate it could be 150-200ft of run.

I’ve used club points to purchase guns in the past. Last year is the most recent gun purchase.
The issue is the website doesn’t have the gun available in 20 gauge. I was thinking about going to the store and talk to them but it’s over an hour drive.

Ordering a shotgun at Cabelas question
Posted by Simon Gruber on 11/13/25 at 10:12 pm
Can cabelas or bass pro order any gun from a manufacturer that they sell? I’m looking for a specific shotgun that Benelli makes in 20 gauge that I know exists because I can see it on Benellis website, but on cabelas website they only offer it in 12 gauge.
Can I go to the store and have them order it? I have credit card points that can be used at bass pro or cabelas which is why I’m hung up on using one of these two stores.

When to book flights to Italy?
Posted by Simon Gruber on 9/23/25 at 9:04 am
My wife and I are going to Italy in late April. Flying into Venice and flying out of Naples about 10 or 11 days later.
I have been tracking flights on google flights and I feel like it’s still early but prices keep going up. Delta is our best option right now for Delta comfort classic it’s around $3,800-$3,900 total for 2 ppl depending on the day.
Thoughts?

Travel Agent recommendations for Italy
Posted by Simon Gruber on 8/11/25 at 11:52 am
My wife and I are looking to take a 10-12 day trip to Italy in April. We would like to use an agent to set everything up for us.
I know travel agents are kind of a thing of the past, but does anyone have someone they recommend using? Preferably someone I could schedule a FaceTime or phone call meeting?

re: Is there really a big difference in daycares?
Posted by Simon Gruber on 5/5/25 at 2:35 pm to fareplay
I have only dealt with 2 different daycares with similar pricing. $150 a week per child, but one was better than the other for sure. One had older women teachers who truly cared about the kids. They were fed home cooked meals and had relatively low teacher turnover.
The other was basically a baby sitting daycare. Young kids who were just there to get a paycheck.
I would take a tour and try to get to know as many day cares as you can and look at the staff.

3 year old potty training issues
Posted by Simon Gruber on 4/9/25 at 9:58 pm
We have been trying to potty train my 3 year old son for awhile now. He will go pee on the toilet if you bring him but less than an hour later he will wet himself and just sit in wet underwear and watch tv or play like he’s dry. It’s like he can’t hold it at all, just feels the urge and goes. We have been trying for weeks now and daycare is helping as well.
He does have constipation issues which is the only thing I can think of that could be causing him to be reluctant to go to the bathroom on his own or tell us when he needs to pee or poop. I’ve started him on a fiber probiotic to see if we can get him more regular and hopefully it will fix the wetting himself problem.
His twin sister has been potty trained for months now.
Any other advice?
