Is there a surplus of Prius on car forums these days ？
Is there a reason ？?

Unlike the days when the only hybrid was the Prius, today
there are a variety of hybrid cars on the market, so
you don't have to choose a Prius to choose another hybrid car.

But Porsche is different. Hybrid is the lowest and maintenance cost is absurdly high

Other German luxury cars also have high maintenance cost
Wealthy people may flirt with Benz, Porsche, etc. for a while, but eventually they settle down with Lexus when they get old.
People who have enough money and don't mind the price end up with Lexus ～ It is best to change luxury cars in 3 years

Korean cars look cheap but they are copies and you can't find the soul of technology like Japanese cars
Sometimes people are fooled by the price and the glance, but I think I am not the only one. Sometimes there are people who are fooled by the price, but they are often people with low IQ.

I can't believe that you have been dog sitting for free for several years. I think they are just taking advantage of the good Lord who can't say no. People who are good at pampering are thick as thieves and will escalate the situation. In the US, if you are going to dog sit and even stay overnight, it is normal to pay, unless you are family. However, some people just find someone who can afford the time to pet-sit or babysit and impose on them for free.
I am not a person who is good at saying no to people, so I accepted it at first, but in common, such people ask for more and more favors.
Moreover, when I refused, they would ask me why they couldn't do it, and before I knew it, I was often surprised to find out that it was natural for them to accept my requests.

If you and your partner both have pets and you help each other when you travel, I understand. If you love your dog and don't mind taking care of it, that's fine, but why should you spend your time and effort on her pet while your friend is on vacation? ？ I think you should be honest about your feelings and clearly decline.

If that makes it awkward for the other person to show no appreciation or apology for what you have done, I think you should keep your distance.

I frankly felt that "the dog owner is a really brazen person"
You are recognized as a handyman and not appreciated.
Please cut ties with such a person now. They will try to keep you in their words. But don't be fooled. They will not give up their connection with you for the reason that 'it will be inconvenient if the handyman disappears'. If you have a record of your past, don't forget to file a claim for damages through an administrative scrivener.

It is not possible. We will pay for you even if you are close to us. You can choose to refuse. Because I got busy, you know. They may ask you for a little bit of help or something, but you should firmly refuse saying that you can't.

I was dog-sitting for a friend of mine for a while.
I had no intention of getting paid, but when I told my family later
they said there was no way I could dog sit for free.
Looking back, I was spending money on transportation to go to the dog sitter
so I was happy to get that much.
I think it is very expensive to have a dog sitter, so
I think she saves a lot of money and is able to travel ？

I know it is hard to say no, but I think you should give a reason
such as you are not feeling well.

Thank you all so much for your input and advice.
I have been bothered for a long time because I was worried that I would be considered narrow-minded to say no or mention money even though we are friends
. I will try to talk to him properly and say no.
Thank you very much ！

Thank you, I will try to get the hotel to open in the next couple of weeks. The hotel is a resort a little ways off the strip. I still think it's going to cost a parking lot, I'm afraid 🥲

I'll check out some good restaurants. Let me know if you have any recommendations.

If you are staying in a remote hotel, Uber is the only way to get to the strip and back. Don't take a cab, you will get ripped off
Once you get to the strip, there is a bus that runs around the clock and you can take it to remote downtown areas.

I did the ZO skin therapeutic course to remove spots.
You purchase the products from the medical spa in Lake Forest below and use the products after washing your face in the morning and at night for about 3 months, I think. Personally, I thought it was fine even if I didn't use ZO Skin's face wash. The 1cm sized spots on my cheeks are gone, and the spots on my temples have rebounded and appeared, but I am happy with the results because they are invisible with regular foundation instead of concealer.

Dear Hmu and Insurance, Thank you for sharing your respective experiences. I have heard that insurance companies are having a hard time in Hawaii because of the many insurance applications being filed for typhoon damage, etc. The water leak damage at the Ritz is really bad. The real estate agent who recommended us to purchase the property is deeply sorry and is now looking for an insurance company. We are considering selling, but under the circumstances we would have to lower the price considerably to sell.

Are your car insurance company and your home insurance company not in a set ？ set, because they are less expensive

I got connected from my car insurance company to the home insurance department and decided to do so. Why don't you ask if there is an insurance company that you can get ？ into?

A friend of mine is in the insurance business. We were just talking about how it has been particularly noticeable lately that insurers are stopping providing insurance for entire condos. One of the reasons for this is that many of the newer condos seem to be using inexpensive, easy-to-use, non-metallic, plastic-like ？ bendable pipes, and these pipes are causing a lot of leaks, even in newer condos. It is quite common for condos with this type of pipe or entire buildings that have aged （ badly ） although I don't think the Ritz is on this list, to be considered accidental and withdrawn from providing insurance. The condo is on this blacklist, but you can ask your insurance broker to find out if the Ritz is. I do not know if it is possible for real estate agents to find out, but if you are planning to buy another place in the future, it may be safer to buy one that is older than the one currently under construction, in the sense that you can check the blacklist in advance. By the way, I was told that it is almost impossible to purchase insurance through several insurance companies that my acquaintance deals with for condos that have been blacklisted.

Thank you for your comment, Arinko. I don't have a car in Hawaii.　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　Thank you for the information, Mr. Insurer. You are exactly right, the Ritz uses cheap, non-metallic, rubbery ？ bendable type pipes, so I think they have been blacklisted because of leaks all over the place. Then someone claiming to be the head of the owner's association notified me that they have decided to replace all of those rubber pipes, all at the owner's expense.　My room is not that big, but it will cost me about $9,000. If you are the head of the owner's association, I think you should pursue the building contractor's liability and work out a settlement plan to protect the owner's rights and prevent any damage. As for the insurance, the real estate agent found an insurance company for us and we were able to renew our insurance, although the cost is almost double. However, this insurance company also said that they cannot promise the next renewal.　Please be careful, everyone.

Mr. Year of the Dog,

I guess you are right ！ Many states in the US mainland do not allow the use of this pipe because it is widely known to cause problems, but my friend said that the state of Hawaii did allow it. After the permit was granted, construction companies began to use this pipe in order to reduce costs. Sooner or later, the condos in Hawaii that use these pipes will suffer major leaks, and as a result, insurance will be very difficult to obtain. I heard that the entire building has decided to replace this pipe, so maybe there is a possibility that the cost of new insurance coverage will be lowered in the future. Otherwise, you may have the option of purchasing a cheaper policy from another insurance company, which would be a painful expense with a $9,000 repair cost plus twice the premium, but I think replacing the pipe is a good idea in the long run. If you are interested in suing, why not join the condo association or attend the regular association meetings ？ the more victims' voices you have, the better your chances of success. I am not familiar with the details of the Moana Pacific class action lawsuit that Copilot mentioned, but （ I have lived in Hawaii for a long time, but I am not aware of it ） and if there have been similar lawsuits in the past, that would be helpful. Also, you may have already done this, but if there is an attorney or insurance broker who owns a Ritz who is familiar with these types of cases, it would be a good idea to invite him or her to a regular meeting to get his or her opinion.

I too hate mosquitoes and insects, so I always have a screen door.

If you can't put up a screen door, how about putting mosquito coils on your lanai ？?

I know there are a lot of mosquitoes because of all the rain.
I have bought and tried various things that came up in my search for "Mosquito Repellent". Mosquito repellent coils are used by my neighbors, but I personally don't like them because of the smell because of the smoke. They say it is effective.
We also put an electric lantern, but this year it seems to be the only one. How about a curtain like a screen door, a magnetic bug screen door? Many houses use it.

I think that praising a child's language and giving treats are two completely different things.
While praising the child when he uses correct language, if he asks for a snack when he shouldn't, the mother should gently explain why it's not a good time. Since your mother-in-law is also a kind person, I am sure that she will understand the basic things that are important in your family if you discuss them with her. In my case, my own mother is a person who tends to get emotional when her opinion is not taken, but my American mother-in-law was very kind. Sometimes she gave me advice, but she was not pushy. Whenever she disagreed with my ideas, I would explain my own ideas softly, and she would think about it, so there was almost never an awkward moment. We eventually got along so well that we could talk about harsh things and laugh at each other, so I think it's better not to get frustrated in the beginning. Good luck.

As you mentioned in your advice, I also think that correcting language and giving treats are two different things. In Hawaii, there seems to be a lot of differences in the way people speak depending on their parents' background, the area they live in, the school they attend, the homeroom teacher, etc. Teaching them correct and beautiful English in addition to the locale-specific English will help them when they become adults. I think that teaching them correct and beautiful English in addition to loco-style English will be useful for them when they grow up. If they get a job in the U.S. mainland or travel around the world in the future, it will be essential for them to speak standard English. My husband is very local and went to a private school in Oahu with a very strict language policy, but he spent his adolescence in the countryside of the Big Island of Hawaii, so he speaks with a very thick pidgin accent. I am very envious because I can speak in a casual pidgin with the locals and in beautiful English otherwise. I am also done raising my children, but I was quite strict with my children's snacks. The most important thing is to be consistent in addition to explaining things properly to your child. I think it is best to explain things the same way every time, using logic that is easy for the child to understand, without changing from one thing to another depending on the mother's mood or mood. In my own case, it was often agonizing, but I was saved when, as an adult, my children told me, "I didn't understand then, but now I understand why mom did what she did, and I am grateful that she did.

！
I thought it was not necessary to speak so politely because my English is at a daily conversational level and I only know Hawaii, and moreover, my child just turned 4 years old, so I thought it was enough if I could talk to him. But in the future, it would be better to have a good command of the language ！.
