The Bear is fantastic! Even better if you like to cook or enjoy food. The acting and storyline is beautiful yet sad, intense, caring.

Been watching West Wing, it’s like home to me, don’t know why.

Yeah, despite my username, it's pretty rare you need a lift, it's just more convenient to have one. But, if OP has no good place to work on his car or store a floor jack and jack stands, just paying to go use a lift might be the best solution. But unfortunately I don't know of any such place around here either.

I just ordered a Bendpak a few weeks ago, but it won't be here for another six weeks, otherwise I'd offer to let OP use mine :)

Been watching Diagnosis on Netflix. It’s A doctor solving medical mysteries and finding the right diagnoses for people with really strange symptoms. If you like reality & mystery & feel good stories, you should check it out.

Sorry, I wasn't totally clear - my mom isn't an employee of the university but my dad worked for them and had insurance through them after retirement. He unexpectedly passed away recently and it's been very difficult for us trying to figure things out. She paid for 3 months but missed a payment and her insurance was terminated.

She accepts responsibility for that, but we were told by the university and Anthem to call the Virginia DHRM and they'll reinstate it and allow up to pay for the missed payment and the next 3 months.

Not sure if that helps with context. Thank you.

I keep forgetting to watch season 3! I don't have HBOmax so I'm literally going to pay for a month of it to watch Barry and then whatever else I can cram into that month. Succession maybe?

You watch Bridgerton for the storyline? I watch Bridgerton for an excuse to speak in a horrible British accent and make up increasingly absurd monikers for lords and ladies on my couch while I binge-watch for 2 days.

Can't wait for season 3.

It's very odd that the University would be directing you to DHRM - the University should have a benefits administrator who could handle any questions like that.

In addition to the other number listed, you could try the employee dispute resolution number:

For an objective, confidential consultation on employment rights and responsibilities as well as available options in resolving workplace conflict, Virginia state government employees, managers and human resource personnel may contact the Office of Employment Dispute Resolution (EDR) AdviceLine Consultant at:

1-888-23ADVICE (1-888-232-3842)

Started Shrinking on Apple TV w Jason segel and Harrison ford. Loving it. Laugh out loud but also all the feels. Recommend if you like Ted Lasso.

I also started Women at War on Netflix (originally a French series but you can watch in French w subtitles or dubbed in English) and it’s about four women in france during WWI. It’s reallllly good. Recommend if you love historic dramas.

I obviously need to start The Last of Us.
