    My "Best" Medigap options - Approval issues?

    I have Plan F-HD and am healthy, I view it as the best plan out there. My monthly premium equals my savings for the HD, if I had medical expenses I'd paid my deductible sooner and have the same plan F coverage. Since I'm healthy I save money every year, while having the protection of broad...

    California Water Restrictions

    If I didn't read this forum I wouldn't know about the water restrictions in my state, I live in Orange County, I don't recall getting any notice of restrictions from my water company. I don't have a lawn, I did build a pool in 2019, and had no problem getting a city permit.

    45th High School Reunion or No?

    E-bike

    This is what I did 8 years ago. Today it is a very different ebike world but Bafang appears to still be the favorite for conversions. As you do now, I loved my Trek bike so I wanted to convert it. I knew it was better than the current ebikes on the market, better bike, motor and battery than...

    Suggestions for a home office

    Our office has two matching back to back desks, we love that neither of us faces a wall. We don't look at each other, we have large monitors on each desk. The printer sits on a "sofa table" size table at the head of the two desks against the wall. We both love the layout of this room.

    Need Help for a long time friend with spending issues.

    I had a friend like this, constantly complaining, asking for advise, but never taking it, always a victim, didn't have the opportunites that we with financial health had, and on and on. I finally realized we had a sick friendship, her immaturity didn't allow a normal adult friendship. I...
