My college roommate is now working as a personal trainer at a large fitness center

I saw my college roommate for the first time in years the other day when I walked into a large fitness center nearby to inquire about their membership fees.

Travis and I got along immediately as we both bonded over music, movies, and televisions shows that we mutually loved.

We went to college parties with each other and even took a few classes together over the years. However, we fell out of touch after we graduated from our university. While we both always had each other’s numbers, we drifted apart and I went over 15 years without seeing him, hearing from him, or hearing anything about him from mutual friends. Every once in a while I would stop and think about Travis and the fun we had as college roommates, but then I always forget to make the effort to give him a call. That all ended when I walked into the large fitness center to ask about their membership fees. I thought I saw a familiar face next to a stack of free weights, so I walked over and asked my old friend how he has been in the years since college graduation. He told me that he just started working at that fitness center as a personal trainer. Despite getting a degree in literature, Travis said that he got certifications and licenses to be a certified personal trainer, something he wanted to do years before going to college apparently. I decided to get a gym membership at that particular fitness center so I had an excuse to see my old friend frequently and catch up with him whenever he’s on a short break from his work commitments at the gym.

What do bees do during the colder months?

One of my favorite things to do is to find hidden gem places in the city that I live in and visit them. I have found some great restaurants as well as little artisan shops and art galleries. I love supporting these small businesses because they are the true backbone of our communities. Well in my quest to find my next adventure, I stumbled upon a nature preserve and animal rescue that was 10 minutes away from my home that I had not heard about. I immediately headed out to this nature preserve and when I arrived, I was pleasantly surprised by the entire operation. Not only did this nature preserve rescue animals but it also had a honey farm on the premises. This meant that there were tons of jars of honey for sale as well. The kind lady from the office took the time to explain everything about the honey farm after I mentioned that she had a lot of honey for sale. She explained that they had just harvested their honey for the Summer. She went on to say that they only harvest honey twice per year. Once in the Summer and the other in the Fall. I had never thought about it, but that would explain why I could never find a lot of raw honey during the Winter months. Not only is the honey not harvested in the colder months, but the bees remain in their hives during that time of year. They form clusters to stay warm during the Winter months and when the Spring comes around, they are back out continuing the pollination cycle. The nature preserve is doing great work and I purchased 3 bottles of honey because I wanted to have excess for when the Winter arrived.

The roofing contractor thought I was a layman.

For the last twenty years, I had been a roofer until I fell off a ladder.

The customers’s dog was running under the ladder.

Just I stepped onto the top rung, the dog darted under the ladder and sent it sliding sideways. I tried to grab onto the roof, but I couldn’t quite get a good hold of it. Three months later, I was still in a hospital recovering from a broken back and hip. I hadn’t worked since, and now I needed to have my roof replaced. I called a roofing contractor and asked for a quote to have my roof replaced. He showed up at the house and started doing an estimate, and I almost fainted when I saw the bottom line. I hadn’t worked in a year, but I didn’t think the price of roofing material had gone up so high. Nor did I think the wages of non-contract roofers had gone so high. I knew there was a problem, but I wasn’t sure how to approach this man. He seemed to be the type of person who thought he knew everything. My wife came home five minutes later, and I showed her the quote. Before I thought, she was laughing and told the man I would have never tried to bilk a customer this badly. She asked if I had told him I was a roofer until a year ago? The man swallowed hard and took the paperwork back while telling me he had transposed some numbers, which made the price nearly $5000 more than it should be.

The general business thought she was going to make some extra money.

After our condo fire, both of us had to hire a general business to rebuild our home, when deciding how both of us wanted the house, both of us knew there were some items both of us wanted and weren’t sure if they would get them, but all of us bought the ceiling fans both of us wanted for each room and took them to the house.

All of us bought the living room lodgeets and the marble countertops.

Along with this, both of us purchased the central air conditioning equipment that wasn’t previously in the house. After they completed the rebuild of the house, the general business sent a receipt for the cost of rebuild, and she detailed every item and their prices, to the insurance business, and the insurance corporation mailed us a copy of that receipt, not knowing both of us had 1 that was completely different. The general business was asking for payment for the cupboards, stone countertops, building of a current room, and a central air conditioning room! I called the insurance corporation and told them there were a few add-ons that should not be there. The room they were charging for had already been built and only needed the wallboard put up! By the time both of us made the decision to go over the list line for line, there was a discrepancy of nearly $25,000. The insurance corporation thanked us for calling and the general business could no longer labor for the insurance business. The kicker was when the insurance corporation told the general business she had to paint the condo again and make sure it was a professional job, and it didn’t look prefer a child had done it.

He thought he was saving money on pipe repairs.

Had he called him as well as asked for help with the plumbing repairs as well as replacement, he would have told him the necessity for the yellow glue as well as other things that needed done, however now, they had to take all the pipes apart as well as use the correct materials to put them back together

My husband regularly did our plumbing, but he hated the task, even though he did it fairly well; Last year, he changed all the pipes in the house. He said plastic pipes would not rust or corrode as well as need changed as often. He told myself and others the two of us would save money on leak repairs by putting in the plastic drain pipes, then two weeks after putting in the new pipes, the two of us had a leak. He could not understand why the pipes were leaking. He called his friend, who was a plumber, as well as asked him to come over! After looking at the pipes our husband installed, he said he did a wonderful task, even though he wanted to suppose where the yellow pipe glue was. My husband looked confused as well as asked what he was talking about. His neighbor told him that when using plastic pipes, you had to clean the pipe with alcohol as well as then apply this yellow stuff that smelled horrible, but helped the pipes to bond; It was a staple in every plumber’s bag! John reminded his neighbor he wasn’t a plumber, as well as he didn’t suppose this. He said there are such things as guidelines. Had he called him as well as asked for help with the plumbing repairs as well as replacement, he would have told him the necessity for the yellow glue as well as other things that needed done, however now, they had to take all the pipes apart as well as use the correct materials to put them back together. John did an amazing task of putting the plumbing together, just not in how he joined them to keep them from leaking. He didn’t save as much money on leak repairs as he thought he had.

Hair removal choices

One of the main reasons I officially visit the salon is for hair removal, then i want smooth, hair free skin on my legs, under my arms as well as in the bikini area, but the high-end salon offers numerous hair-removal methods, then looking for a painless as well as effective process, I’ve tried them all.

There are pros as well as cons to each.

I’ve seen hair-removal trends come as well as go. I trust the esthetician at the salon to look out for my best interests as well as only recommend safe methods, but one of my least preferred methods is waxing. It detachs the entire hair follicle from the root by applying heated wax to areas where there is unwanted hair. The benefit of waxing is that it’s quite long-lasting. It’s especially great for getting rid of short, stubborn hairs. After many wax treatments, the hair that grows back is softer, finer as well as more sparse, however what I don’t like about waxing is that it is painful! Plus, it’s necessary to let the hair grow to a half-inch in length before scheduling the process, which is genuinely unattractive. I care about sugaring. It is an all-natural hair removal technique that uses a paste made from water, sugar as well as lemon juice. It’s applied to the skin as well as then detachd by way of a flicking motion that pulls the hair out from the follicle. It gently exfoliates skin as well as avoids ingrown hairs. There is no hair breakage as well as it is quite long-lasting. The disadvantage is that sugaring is time-consuming as well as the process sometimes irritates my skin. I can end up with ugly as well as rather painful green bumps.

Short term housing rental can be perfect to digital nomads

My spouse & I are thinking of becoming digital nomads, currently, every one of us both labor from home, which means every one of us can labor from anywhere in the world, but and while an exotic island sounds perfect, every one of us are planning on starting our journey here in our own country, & perhaps when every one of us get used to the lifestyle, every one of us might consider other locales, but becoming a digital nomad is no easy feat as there are particular decisions that every one of us need to make, but one of the main ones is what to do with our home. All of us will be traveling for most of the year, so our house will be empty… My spouse doesn’t want to sell the house & would appreciate to keep it as a short term housing rental property with a week to week lease option, however he believes that this choice would be best because if every one of us ever decided to return home, every one of us would have a locale to come back to, then i don’t mind using our house for short term housing rental because at least every one of us would be able to cover some of the mortgage, which means every one of us could save currency while every one of us are traveling, but neither of us have ever managed any rental property before, so this would be a up-to-date venture for us. I have gotten advice regarding renting furnished hoses from a family friend who proposed a short term housing website that they have used in the past. I have already done some research & I am comfortable in what I found, then so, I believe that every one of us will be placing our house for rent soon. And hopefully, when every one of us do system on returning home, the bendy leasing choice would be able to labor out well for us.

My university roommate is a trainer

He told myself and others that he just started working at that fitness center as a personal trainer

I saw our university roommate for the first time in years the other day when I walked into a huge fitness center nearby to inquire about their membership fees. Travis and I got along immediately as every one of us both bonded over music, movies, and televisions shows that every one of us mutually enjoyed. All of us went to university parties with each other and even took a few classes together over the years.

Every once in a while I would stop and assume about Travis and the fun every one of us had as university roommates, however then I always forget to make the effort to supply him a call. That all ended when I walked into the huge fitness center to ask about their membership fees. I thought I saw a common face next to a stack of free weights, so I walked over and asked our ancient neighbor how he has been in the years since university graduation. He told myself and others that he just started working at that fitness center as a personal trainer.

I decided to get a gym membership at that particular fitness center so I had an excuse to see our ancient neighbor frequently and catch up with him whenever he’s on a short cut from his work commitments at the gym.
