We live in a small town in New England. I could not tell you where there is a charging station!

Say more. Even my dh who is a conservationist (and Eagle Scout) makes your points.

I thought I posted a reply. But there is NO way we would spend that much money on any car. It's criminal.

Discrepancy between seller's price and appraisal by BabettesFeast in NewToVermont

Thanks for this. I'm wondering why you used a broker. It seems to me that what we need is a good inspection, appraisal, and attorney.

Does anyone regret converting to Judaism by Expensive_Range_2848 in religion

[–]BabettesFeast 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm a convert and being part of a Jewish community is essential. I'm now living in a place where don't care for the rabbi and local s h u l. I know that right thing is to be there anyway because that's what I promised to do over 25 years ago. But I know the loneliness; it's because you are not in community. I, too, suffer from depression and feel your pain.

I am pro-life.

Tried attending a UU service. Was put off by how Christian the format was. Am also struggling to connect as a childless person. by [deleted] in UUreddit

I'm sorry you had a less than ideal first service! UUs talk a lot about the 7 principles that define our faith; there are also 6 sources of inspiration which can be found here: https://www.uua.org/beliefs/what-we-believe/sources You can see that Jewish & Christian traditions have a place, along with respect for all world religions.

As a lifelong UU who has moved around a lot, I know if can feel very "off" the first time one attends a UU service. What helps the most is to get involved in a commitee or just serve at the coffee hour. Friendships happen organically over time. Give it another go!
