Good inexpensive headphones
Posted by LSUlove on 4/23/25 at 6:49 pm
I’m not an ear bud fan. Anyone has a good suggestion for inexpensive headphones?
re: Have you ever actually met a transgender person?
Posted by LSUlove on 4/22/25 at 9:59 pm
My son had a child in his class in Pre-K 4 whose mom would dress him up as Elsa for story book character day. Let’s call him “Peter”. The class ended Pre-K early for Covid that year.
When they returned the next year, this child had longer hair and wanted to be called “Julie”. Used the girls bathroom and had all privileges of a girl. My 5 year old was not in his class the following year for Kindergarten and due to Covid restrictions, didn’t not interact with him. It wasn’t until 2nd grade they were in the same class again and my son’s teacher tells me that my child walked up to the kid and said “What happened to Peter? Did you just wake up one morning and decide you were a girl?”
I think that’s a pretty reasonable response for a 7 year old. Needless to say, Peter’s parents moved to a state that supported hormone therapy for children of that age so he is no longer in their school.
So yes, we have met a trans person.

re: Zea rotisserie and bar is a very underrated restaurant with a great wide-ranging menu.
Posted by LSUlove on 4/13/25 at 4:24 pm
They used to have a great menu but after covid they paired it down a ton and it’s very basic now. My favorite used to be the pesto crusted trout. Since they have removed it, I have a hard time finding something I want to eat.

Only 4 district games? That’s weird, why only 4 games total?
Especially in the smaller classifications, if a good team had to play everyone in their district, it would kill their power ratings, even if they went undefeated.
CCA seems to be a legit team. They beat Curtis, Erath, Destrehan and St Charles Catholic pretty handily. Their opponents I think scored a total of 22 combined runs in their 32 wins. That’s pretty impressive.

re: First time re-grouting my shower
Posted by LSUlove on 4/2/25 at 9:51 am
Do you scrape out any of the previous grout before re-grouting or are you just going on top of the previous grout. I have some areas that need to be re-grouted in my shower but wasn't sure how to go about it.

I have a Dolphin and it will not climb onto my tanning ledge. I have had it for 4 years and I would say it was great for the first two. I've been dealing with lots of issues the last two but don't want to invest in another so I just deal with it.
re: Suggested nutrition plan for 16yr old boy athlete

Is this for breakfast?
Not just this. He tends to have two waffles with peanut butter, three eggs and a glass of milk. Then he takes a Fairlife protein shake on his way to school.
These are all great suggestions. Bottom line, it seems that he just needs more calories. He is a three sport athlete and basketball just ended. He burns way more calories playing basketball with practice daily than at baseball, so hopefully this time will give him a chance to bulk up.
Suggested nutrition plan for 16yr old boy athlete
Posted by LSUlove on 3/4/25 at 9:05 pm
Son is trying to put on some weight/muscle mass. Currently a little over 6ft and weighs around 165lbs. Working out 4 times a week and on creatine. Drinks protein shake every morning and school cafe serves good protein/carb options for lunch and we cook good dinners. Just can’t seem to eat enough calories though. Got up to 170 a few weeks ago but had the flu for a few days and lost 8lbs. Fortunately put on a few of those lbs back but appetite just hasn’t been there. Any suggestions to help him bulk up a little quicker? Would like to get to around 180/185 by August.

Did you hire someone to do the tint or did you do it yourself? If yourself, do you have a product suggestion? What level tint?

Correct. You have a school like St Martin’s with two D1 football commits this year, sorry Jeff, you can’t complain. Just a down year for you.

Yes, she is just awful. Her delivery is just weird. Then again, chief of staff’s delivery last year was weird as well. Not sure why they can’t find a decent supporting actor for this role.

It’s been quite a morning! We have made a snowman, the kids have played football and all three just took a cold plunge in the pool. My husband has been playing in the snow as much as the kids.

Go to an ABC Title, not DMV, and they will hold your hand if you bring that form and the title notarized. Although, they can notarize it as well but if you have an attorney friend then it’s free.
Thank you! Do both the seller (gifter) and buyer (giftee) need to be present to sign the title and be notarized? Or can the seller sign without the notary present and I sign as it’s notarized?
Donated car
Posted by LSUlove on 1/14/25 at 6:07 pm
I have a car being donated (gifted) to my son. Blue book value is around $11K. When switching the title over, should we just file it as a donation or is there any reason we should create a bill of sale for say $500 or so? Some people have told me to not accept it as a donation, but haven’t been able to articulate why, just stated for tax purposes.
