re: OT baws, rate my X-ray

I think it looks like an ORIF clavicle.
After the huge increases in recent years, I prefer a significant decrease that really move the needle. One that’ll truly help out retirees on a fixed income and other families that are struggling. Not a nominal decrease (2%) so Landry can talk about how he lowered insurance rates during his reelection campaign.

My homeowners insurance more than doubled in two years and yall are excited about leveling off or a 2% decrease.

re: COVID Lockdowns

During Covid I would wear scrubs to the grocery store and people would see me coming down the aisle and turn around and run from me. Felt like Moses parting the Red Sea.
Loved mine! We left ours down 99% of the time.

Only gripe i have and I know it’s petty but id rather have a door to walk out of than having to find the remote to raise the slow screen to go out to your yard. I know some have a wall mount switch to control it and im sure thats a little easier but if i was building from scratch i would have an exterior door to get out to the yard. Ive seen this on recent new build designs and i think thats the way to go in my opinion.

I thought mine went out a couple of years ago. I called minka aire and the guy told me it was probably the remote receiver. I changed it out and that’s what it was. I believe it’s a $40 part if you want to give it a try. Fairly easy to change out but it does require taking it down and fully apart.

Construction Loan

Posted by dlambe5 on 10/25/25 at 9:43 am
Does a construction loan require you to use the banks funds thru the whole process then close at the end?

I have 75% of the funds to build our house. I just need a loan for the remainder 25% of cost. I would rather use my funds as much as possible to save on interest.

Is a construction loan the best process or is there a better loan option to accomplish this?
I agree. If you put all the nuggets back together it wouldn’t even be equal to a full chicken breast.
Garage Experts

Did my garage. They did a fantastic job. Highly recommend. Their cabinets and slat walls are high quality. They are turnkey.
So the realtor you were referring to in your initial post is the sellers realtor? She’s sending you inspection reports and so on? You have no representation?
Your realtor should be able to answer any question you might have and guide you thru the whole process.

I’ve seen a ton of interest rate deals. Way lower than 7%.
For example. CPO MDX. Includes extended warranty 7 year or 100k miles. 1.29% for 36 months, 3.99 for 48, or 4.99% for 60. Three rows. True transmission. Not a CVT. Reliable.

I have a Hustler from Gautreaux’s. I love it. No matter what brand you decide, I would go with a Kawasaki engine.
They fixed ours at 70k miles. Very grateful but traded it in almost immediately.
