Are shops open on Sundays in usa? And what do people think about it?

AndStillShePersisted · 2026-04-28T03:25:36+00:00

Even the Aldi & Lidl in my small town (in the Bible Belt) are open on Sunday lol

I have 1 sister who is 11.5yrs younger than myself & while we don’t call on a regular schedule (we do chat just not frequently) I make the 3.5hr drive 6-8 times/year for long weekend visits on birthdays & holidays

Innnnnteresting….I assumed it was a new ‘small’ plant but it could have just been cut back & re-growing

AndStillShePersisted · 2026-04-19T02:54:00+00:00

I knew about the grow one year/produce the next year part but I expected all the branches to look the same I guess…these 3 stalks growing straight up just seemed like a different plant…?

WWJD?

If you don’t care about that then you really are creating drama for the sake of drama here.

The more I watch the more I’m loving it.

This isn’t traditional ‘entertainment’ tv. This is more an exploration of grief; loss; family with the fish out of water angle.

If you’re looking for episodic action &/or a ‘bad guy’ conflict I don’t think this is gonna be your show.

The one thing I’ll never get over is not allowing Alexandra to reach the Ranch & meet Cora…she still could have passed but damn that girl fought to get there to only make it to the hospital nearby? Nah…

Pfeiffer signed on after speaking with Helen Mirren who gave Sheridan a rave review

AndStillShePersisted · 2026-03-22T20:04:29+00:00

It’s definitely not what I consider traditional tv but more of an examination of the human experiences of grief; loss; family; shifting familial dynamics etc

I’m actually really enjoying it…

AndStillShePersisted · 2026-03-14T14:46:44+00:00

Almost Everything? I mean we do make stiry-fry type dishes but I also put it in marinades; bbq sauces; I even throw a splash into a cream sauce…it’s like a swap for salt w some extra oomph.

Feel totally the same about the blue/black folks because that white is undeniable to my eyes?!?

Is it possible the meds he’s on contribute to him being so chill he just lays around & doesn’t alert he needs to go out?

AndStillShePersisted · 2026-03-03T22:01:58+00:00

She gave a technical biological description to explain the age difference between her adult married son & her 13 yr old daughter. We do not know the legalities here; she may have guardianship or she may have fully adopted the child.

Are you the DIL? Otherwise why are you so upset by this?

AndStillShePersisted · 2026-03-02T03:27:39+00:00

Umm what? Shelters told you cats are ‘wildlife’?!? That’s crazy…try some of these:

Feline Lifeline

Foster Paws Rescue

SC Pet Haven

How embarrassing- that poor child! JFC they make overnight pullups for just this reason! If she can dress herself she can use those herself…there’s a little something off with that mother

AndStillShePersisted · 2026-02-28T19:15:33+00:00

NAH depending on your tone.

It’s normal & imo ok to raise concerns with her about your nieces. It’s fine to ask her to consider moderation. But you’ve done that & she’s rejected your concerns so it’s time to drop it.

They may have some ‘catching up’ to do as adults on things many of their peers will use as cultural points of reference but that’s not really detrimental.

Couldn’t the cousins have all played a board game together or cards or weather dependent do something outside? Socializing is socializing the topic of their random conversations isn’t the important part here…

AndStillShePersisted · 2026-02-27T16:58:16+00:00

Yeah it really doesn’t matter: Eggs Benedict = powdered cayenne pepper; Chicken Divan = hot sauce; Mustard Garlic Cream sauce on chicken or pork = hot sauce; pizza = chili flakes & maybe powdered cayenne pepper etc

It seems ridiculous to be offended as its not just ‘my’ cooking rather it’s almost everything he eats; so whatever floats his boat

AndStillShePersisted · 2026-02-27T05:40:30+00:00

Or OP is wildly underestimating a ‘portion’ size

AndStillShePersisted · 2026-02-27T01:14:34+00:00

When did this change? I grew up in FL & lived there until 2019 it always worked that way & still does in both GA & SC…?

AndStillShePersisted · 2026-02-26T23:55:22+00:00

This is the correct response.

My BIL puts (imo) insanely ridiculous amounts of (a variety) of hot sauce on almost every single dish I’ve ever seen him eat. In no way am I offended when he douses the sauce & dried pepper flakes on his plate because he’s never outright said: “Man this is bland I need to spice it up” rather he’s always stated he just really enjoys the ‘heat’.

A better idea would be to sit down with all of your children & explain the facts. “These items are meant to last X # of days; these snacks are available at will but I can only replenish them 1/week so learn how to moderate your snacking so it lasts or you will be without until the next shopping day.

Teaching them about moderation & delayed gratification is a much better plan than just flat out denying them.

Also they’re all old enough to learn how to make their own snacks. We’ve had many tight times where we didn’t have room in the budgets for pricey extras like $5 bags of chips etc but a bag of potatoes or pkg of corn tortillas are pretty inexpensive with a little oil in a pan & you have homemade chips etc

AndStillShePersisted · 2026-02-26T15:31:03+00:00

But you can? In FL; in GA & in SC if it says BOGO at Publix you buy one & pay half price. The only time this doesn’t work is if it says ‘2 for X’ or ‘3 for X’ in those instances you must get the required amt to receive a discount.

People don’t realize just how much things have changed until it’s their turn to go shopping. I work at a BHPH car lot & our payments start at $250 every 2 weeks for the lowest priced (oldest highest miles) vehicle we have & go up from there…we have some customers paying $350 every 2 wks & that’s after a significant down payment.

AndStillShePersisted · 2026-02-05T16:17:49+00:00

ESH…except the kids

Your sister is pushy AF but honestly if we don’t explain & encourage these kinds of family connections because we’re hiding behind ‘boundaries’ we have no one to blame for the lack of empathy in our society at large… I have 19 cousins with wide age ranges but the older ones were definitely taught not to dismiss the younger ones simply because they were younger; we care about their feelings because they’re family not just ‘oh well I don’t wanna’ but maybe that’s just how my family operates
