I do mostly drywall patching, fence repair, and basic fixture swaps. Lately, I’ve had a ton of clients asking me to descale or fix their Rinnai and Navien tankless units. I usually pass on tankless water heater repair because the electronics seem finicky and I'm not a licensed plumber. Should I learn how to do this, or is the liability too high for a general handyman?
I have this intermittent fluttering feeling in my chest, maybe once or twice a week. I went to urgent care during one episode, but by the time they hooked me up to the machine, I felt fine. The reading came back normal. I'm trying to figure out if getting another one is even worth it. I see places that do an ekg near me at retail clinics, but I'm wondering if it's useless unless I'm actively having the sensation. Should I be pushing for a Holter monitor instead, or is a resting EKG actually useful for picking up underlying structural stuff even when you feel fine?
Okay, so for context, I've had extensions in my hair for the past 6 years straight. Braids, marley braids, every kind of hair piece you can think of. I have literally never worn my natural 4c hair out or styled it on its own, ever. Not once in 6 years.
My hair never seems to get any longer no matter what I do. So I decided enough is enough, and I'm committing to a full 6 months of protective styling and actually taking care of my natural hair underneath, instead of just hiding it under extensions and hoping for the best.
Trying to stay consistent for the next 6 months, but I won't lie: week one has humbled me. Would really appreciate hearing from anyone who's walked this road already 🥹
Is this path really worth it? And what are the pros and cons?
I used to hate pork🤢 my whole life. As a kid and even in high school I couldn’t stand it, it was too oily, had some weird taste, just not for me. Recently I tried it again (asked for less fatty pieces) and now I actually love it. Turns out I didn’t hate pork... I just hadn’t eaten good pork before...
What food did you hate for years but now enjoy?
