Texan. Trying to decide what’s next for me. Still can’t find the TV remote.

At this moment we need to remember that it’s crazy what we could’ve had. Here’s REM doing the most stunning version of their song Country Feedback. This song is about you. m.youtube.com/watch?v=LAhk...

Wishing for the perfect home for her to materialize this week! And thanks for what you do for these sweet creatures!

What a lovely girl! ❤️

It’s on our short list but we’ve agreed no decision until after daughter’s wedding. I love NM. We’ve been semi planning a road trip bc I really want to see the chihuly workshop in Seattle but I’m afraid we’d be the same way about the PNW!

Have you ever been to a game in ABQ? I haven’t been since the team sold (years ago) but it used to be a total party
Laura (@sugarcreek.bsky.social) reply parent
I thought of you & your hats! We had a great time, they’re just so silly & relaxed. Plus our team won so even more fun 😊

Went to a baseball game tonight (AA team for Tx Rangers) and it’s been so long, I’d forgotten how much fun double A ball is ⚾️

I’d call the bank & ask to speak to someone in their acct security/fraud dept & let them advise you. May be best to watch & wait? Similar situation happened to me last year, went bad & we weren’t in front of it, worked out fine but a pain in the ass going through it 😬

I’m really having trouble lately reconciling this world we’re in with anything logical or respectful; but then as discussed earlier, how many people just don’t know anything but the surface info they hear, which they choose to take as gospel fact

If you've experienced domestic violence or supported DV survivors, you'll recognize the walking on eggshells dynamic. SSHHHH be quiet, make yourself small, don't anger them so they don't lash out again or further...

I hope they’re at least in an area where the girl can be exposed to different cultures, not just hard red tx
Laura (@sugarcreek.bsky.social) reply parent
She’s pretty tuned into what’s happening but FSIL is one of those people who is so smart & yet clueless at the same time; esp as a cis WM in tx, he just kinda rolls through life. Are your inlaws intentionally clueless or in the cult?

9 months feels like YEARS. As a woman in Texas, it feels different. My daughter who’s getting married soon is discussing kids & for my own sanity, I’m going to have a difficult talk w her about what could realistically happen; these things that are killing preg women aren’t that uncommon.

I think what’s really getting to me is we know it’s all going to get worse before it gets better. Especially for certain segments of our communities. Maybe I’m being overly cynical, but I doubt it

As I was leaving UC, a med assistant brings out my discharge papers & says “ooooh denim on denim, how very 90s” and now all I can think of is this
Laura (@sugarcreek.bsky.social)
I had to go to urgent care; wore jeans & a t-shirt, & at the last minute grabbed a denim shirt I wore unbuttoned over the t-shirt as I’m having chills (all grabbed from clean laundry pile but certainly not a fashion choice).

There’s my belief system, then there’s the fact that if I were a parent with a recent tragic loss of my child, I’d find that kind of remark from some of those senators facile & presumptive & I suspect I’d have trouble not coming across the table at them.

Question, and I actually hope you’ll share this after answering so I can get a wide range of answers. Is it normal for you to push a chair in when you’re done sitting at a table?
Laura (@sugarcreek.bsky.social) reply parent
Absolutely, unless you’re my husband. Even the (adult) kids know to do this!

We’ve been dog-free for a couple of years now after our old sweet dogs lived 15 & 12 years. I REALLY want a dog. Husband does not. One cat does not, based on history (she doesn’t like any creature except husband). I think I’m outvoted?

Oh no, I’m so sorry!

This looks like a user error issue: just got a new iPhone that has the “local awareness” feature; if my old phone got that in an update or whatever, I missed it. So to answer the original question, yes, I would enable the emergency/weather alerts using this feature.

Trivial but I thought it was so strange: I take a pill, take a drink of water, swallow. My husband fills his mouth with water, closes mouth, throws his head back, opens mouths, drops pill in, swallows. 🤷♀️
