I’m also just now researching health insurance for 2018 and sympathize with how much its costing those of us who don’t have it through our jobs. I’ve been happy for several years with “Pro Benefits of Washington” @425-643-3350. Check out their well deserved, 5 star reviews! I’ve always worked with Samantha Hensley, but Iman is now managing individual insurance. I’ve loved Samantha, but so far, Iman seems ok. I’ll probably stay w/Kaiser Bronze plan.($$$). Sigh. Good luck!

I won’t place orders for merchandise delivered by the USPS for this very reason. They will drop packages on the ground by the mailbox out on the street, in the rain and where they can easily be picked up by anyone passing. On one occasion I found a package that had been thrown over the fence, crushing some plants. Complaining is futile. A few years ago, after getting no answer (or a stupid one) from the Westwood P.O., I began going up the ladder with USPS. After six months of multiple transfers and no answers (to a very simple question, I might add) I was told to contact my local PO.

Usually you don’t have these problems with your regular carrier. Most packages are delivered by a separate branch of the PO, so the carrier is probably not the problem. I feel your frustration. I think Patty Murray’s office handles postal issues; going through the PO will get you nowhere.

Found out last night (after riding the bus down to Alki specifically to go to Spud) that Spud is closed for renovations and remodeling until mid-November. According to their Facebook page they are shooting for re-opening on November 13th, and closed on October 16th. If there was anything about it here on WSB I missed it, so here’s another notice about it.
Sunfish is still open, however (except for Mondays and Tuesdays) and takes credit and debit cards now- the last time I ate there years ago they were cash only. Good food at Sunfish as well with tasty scallops and fish, although the fries weren’t quite as good as at Spud.

lallen, I have to agree with not-so-dumb, above. Your last paragraph was brilliant. “Pampering” involves an activity that creates comfort, reassurance, and stability. An IRA will help to accomplish that – a manicure will not.

[jissy]

blades: I’m curious, was it the same cashier both times? I agree with anonyme… bizarre but I’m wondering if it’s not some rogue employee who’s found an easy passive stream of income and nothing to do with how MM has asked cashier’s to respond. Easy to reconcile the till if it just goes in their pocket instead of yours.

I too always want my change although my husband can’t be bothered with it like lallen — he hates it jingling in his pocket and always hands it over to me to “hold”. And I do, happily… put it in my change jar to fill my kids’ piggy banks that then go into their savings accounts.

[JoB]

lallen..
i too grew up with a depression era parent who was penny foolish in many of her choices.. and as a result i grew up to be the woman who could survive a natural disaster with her well stocked pantry.. restocked by sales at the market i visit that day for other purchases… i literally don’t leave the store without checking the sales and the managers close out bin.
I get it.

i also get that change adds up.. which is why i contribute to change jars by cash registers whether they are charity driven or not… but.. that change hits my palm first.. because I think it should.

i wish more stores had jars or cups or whatever next to their tills because what i carry home from those that don’t weighs heavily on my shoulders.. and quickly accumulates in the change jar..

we are doing well financially right now… but i have never forgotten the times when that change jar was literally the difference between eating.. and not. When it’s full it serves that purpose.. for someone else.. and i start over.

i think i have found a balance between my parent’s foolishness and gifting the local merchant with additional and unexpected profit… but it is my balance.

if yours works for you.. it works for you.

I’ve had (Group Health) now Kaiser for years. Time to shop and get quotes, I know that’s a lot of homework to do. But in the meantime, who do you have? Who has the lowest rates? Ha! What a joke. At this point, the sky rocketing premiums, and having nearly catastrophic coverage because my deductible is $2500…I might as well just get the cheapest I can find. What say you WestSeattle Bloggers?

We haven’t eaten there yet, but hope to give it a shot soon.
We did walk by one night while walking the Junction, after eating at a different restaurant. Asked to look at the menu and noticed that it was really tough to read on the blue part of the flag. Black text over a dark blue image is not a good design. Should be white text, or lighten the blue so black text is readable.

I hope this link works…
Please consider donating to this cause. It is related to a story that appeared on the blog in August. This would truly provide healing to many people, as well as provide a reminder of kindness and caring in a time and place where, I feel at least, it’s really needed. Thank you for your consideration.

Is this an open rant area???? If so here’s my rant. I tried commenting on the 2 finger bar opening to the person who asked “is it going to be a dog friendly place” and of course it wasn’t allowed by the WSB Editor…but here is what I tried to comment:
OMG!!! Why can’t dog owners leave their dogs at home, why must they bring them everywhere they go?
Are your dogs that bad that they can’t be left at home alone…are they chewing up your shoes, tearing up the sofa when you do leave them alone??? If so it sounds like a bad owner and not the dogs fault.
Don’t get me wrong, I’ve owned a lot of dogs in my 62 yrs of life and loved them all like family and not one of them did I have to bring with me everywhere I went…they behaved at home when left alone.
So I guess my rant is a double rant “dogs everywhere & WSB Editor.
