r/Janesville

I totally sucked at school because I had reading comprehension problems. But I made some friends during that time.

These days I'm a homeless warehouse worker in Oakland, CA.

The only thing that I have to show for 33 years of physical labor in Northern California is that I learned how to program a computer at UC Berkeley. But I have no interest in becoming a computer programmer.

Now I'm thinking about moving back to Janesville, and retiring there.

And I still don't know my purpose in life -(

When I was a kid, I had a lemonade stand with some neighborhood friends. I still think about the guy that that gave us a $20 and said keep the change. Friends and I took our profits and went to Pizza Hut feeling adultish at our first sit down meal with no adults. Dad asked how things went so I told him all the details. Same day, I also learned about tipping. Dad went to Pizza Hut, found the server, and made it right. I learned a LOT of lessons that day ❤️ Important ones. I still pay it forward at lemonade stands today.

My husband, child 13m and I are moving to Janesville soon. How are the schools? Are there activities for 13 y/o in the summer? I am nervous about him making friends. Thanks!

Howdy local folks! Anyone have any recommendations for who I might call to get an egress window put in my basement? I am comfortable with most of the work except for cutting the poured foundation.
