    Yeah...I have like four different accounts at different institutions. I usually leave enough of a pad in there it's a non-issue but I did a rebalance, so I was waiting to pay the big ticket items (mortgage, CCs, etc) so I moved a large chunk from one account and paid out everything (I haven't carried a CC balance since I was 19) and my budgeting software said I was fine, but the high yield account didn't come in before everything else zipped out. Luckily, everything got paid and I have until 10 PM the next day (tomorrow) to get everything in order. The wife and kid(s) accounts are at the same bank as the main checking so I just pulled out of their accounts to cover everything, but it was a "no, nonononononononono" moment I wasn't ready to have this evening.

    I'm usually SO good at keeping things straight, too. My wife is giving me so much crap about it.

    That’s a little like where we stand. Find a place that will allow pets. Put excess things in storage and wait. Rents have gone up too. We’ve decided to renovate our kitchen and some cosmetics like new doors and what not. I would like to move but not with this insanity. We’ll wait

    Interested in answers as well. I have been tempted to get one of these:

    https://www.amazon.com/TerraKing-cu...+Leaf+Vacuum&qid=1635857867&sr=8-1-spons&th=1

    For the moment, I just mow more often and bag the leaves, but once the oak leaves fall it becomes a major chore.

    I'm surprised I haven't. My main checking account is basically a temporary holding bin. Part of my paycheck goes in and basically immediately goes out to pay off credit card balances. I'm often down to about $20 in that account.

    When I worked for a landscaper, we used one of those walk-behind leaf blowers to push all the leaves to one side of the yard, then either keep going into the woods or collect them on a tarp or suck them up with the truck vac.

    Alright peeps recommend me an alignment shop that knows about lifted truck alignments. This is all going on Sunday so I'll need a good knowledgeable alignment person. Please no Sleezy Monroe, or Town Suck Tire. Maybe a Mom n Pop place someone knows.

    Just called a Toytec dealer in the NE area (NE Offroad Outfitters) to see where they sub their alignments out to - they highly recommended and stated "best alignments around period" - Mc Farland Spring - 207-797-6271 in Portland.

    Hope that helps!

    Portland, Westbrook, it's almost the same, to-may-to, to-mah-to.

    For an alignment, yeah, I would hesitate too. How about giving the guys at Roko Vehicles or Built For The East a call?
