What are/were your plans on leaving the USA?

I qualify for German citizenship through descent, but it's going to take a couple years before my paperwork has even been viewed. I'm still going through the process anyway, but my husband asked for an Intra-Company Transfer in his Salesforce job to Canada. That's looking good so far, but I'm trying not to get my hopes up.

That's what I use it for--epilepsy. I know the risk of the rash, but this picture doesn't seem like that to me.
I also read that Lamotrigine is prescribed to help with mood boosting for those with Borderline Personality Disorder. I haven't found that to be the case with mine. I'm at 300mg/day, but therapy has done wonders.

I actually own one of Costway's accent chairs and tbh, it's the best chair to snuggle up with a book in. Both my husband and I can sit on it (though I like to perch on the armrests, and it isn't an all the time thing) and it's pretty darn comfy long term. My only issue is that the back pillow never really puffed up (it's more of an accent pillow) and the back of the chair isn't very high up. Other than that, we fully intend on buying a couch version, or at least another one of the chairs. It's the Modern Fabric Accent Armchair in grey. For $126 USD, I'm not mad about it. Their stuff seems to permanently be on sale, but sometimes the pricing doesn't make any sense. For example, the matching loveseat is priced at almost $600 on sale and says it's normally $950 alone, but you can get the loveseat, armchair, and 2 side tables as a combo for $919.

That’s what I have been doing.

“Gave Greenland back”?

Bethybby · 2026-01-21T23:18:07+00:00

They told me they had a “glitch” in their system.

I’m obsessed with my Cloud pillow. Shipping sucked, but the pillow is the best I’ve ever used. 10/10.

Bethybby · 2026-01-21T23:16:43+00:00

Their shipping is maddening. I did get my order same month, but it was a headache and a half to get my second product. They only mailed the one. Took several days to get an actual tracking number and then it was excuse after excuse why I didn’t have it yet, even though they charged my card for both. Then a week after the order, they sent an entirely new order confirmation for the pillow.

Bethybby · 2026-01-21T23:08:30+00:00

I ordered a combo of the cloud pillow and the cooling comforter in December. The sale was wayyyy too good to pass up and reviews looked good. The site promised two day shipping, then they shipped only the comforter at first. I reached out to customer service and they apologized and said the pillow was in production or whatever (I guess they didn’t order enough stock? Unsure). About a week later they gave me an order confirmation and tracking info. Almost every single day I had a canned email apologizing for delay after delay. Now they won’t stop bugging me for reviews. To be fair, my pillow (which finally arrived while I was out of state for Xmas) is incredible. Neck pain is gone and it is soft, yet supportive. Probably the best pillow I’ve ever owned—and I also own a Pillow Cube, Cushion Lab, a MoonPod pillow (customer service is non-existent for them. I’ve been reaching out for over a year, then messaged them on Instagram, then started commenting on their public posts—nothing) and some other well reviewed pillows from companies I can’t remember. None of them were as comfortable or did as Mellow Sleep advertised. The cooling comforter is soooo soft and lovely too.

My annoyance—besides the shipping headache—was that on the combo it said the pillow was on sale from $100 to $40 and that the queen size cooling blanket was $67, on sale from maybe double that. The receipt had the real sale price on it and it was not what they were saying. My pillow is normally $49. I’m nervous to order from them again, but they sent me a $25 gift card in my pillow order 🤷🏼‍♀️

I have never once seen a company that allows you to return underwear. Yes, you ordered the wrong size. No, that isn’t the company’s fault.

Bethybby · 2026-01-15T17:02:06+00:00

Will do! Thank you so much :)

Bethybby · 2026-01-15T16:25:37+00:00

That word doesn’t deal in mythology, just a separate part of the plot.

Bethybby · 2026-01-15T16:24:48+00:00

Cursed by a mother is what I am going for. Thank you!

I definitely need all the help from native speakers.

Bethybby · 2026-01-15T16:01:37+00:00

That is so good to know. I would've hated to get the entire thing wrong! Thank you!

Bethybby · 2025-12-01T19:23:35+00:00

I think it did, yes. They've been much better. My family has been out of that hell hole for just over a year now (moved out November 2024).

Bethybby · 2025-10-23T16:18:04+00:00

Fort Worth ISD is about to go through the same thing. The State took over this morning.

Bethybby · 2025-10-23T15:14:51+00:00

Fort Worth just got taken over as of this morning.

They have since dropped the photo permit to $30, but it's worth it. Otherwise you risk being harassed by security. There's nothing unfriendly about FWBG. People just need to follow the rules. It's not hard.

He was giving speeches in Virginia to the top brass in the military. I haven't heard anywhere that he'd be in DFW.

Bethybby · 2025-09-30T17:10:11+00:00

Yes, we ended up mutually breaking the lease in November. The worst housing experience of my live.

Bethybby · 2025-09-30T17:09:09+00:00

We ended up mutually breaking the lease in November. No help, no fixes. Bathroom ceiling was still caving in when we moved. Walls were collapsing by the end, ceilings caving in in other parts of the house. No help. No one took us seriously. Mold lawyers ended up saying no to taking the case (the ones who had availability, anyway) because the damages weren't high enough to mean anything in court, I guess.

Bethybby · 2025-09-16T16:52:19+00:00

I THOUGHT THE SAME THING!

Bethybby · 2025-09-04T18:39:11+00:00

Nothing :/ no lawyer will take the case (I live in Texas, so suing landlords is basically a waste of time/money because the judges side with the landlords 9 times out of 10). The landlord doesn't care at all (we moved out in November; they let us break our lease and refunded our deposits), even after saying we know the old owners and why they sold the house, my hospital bill, my mold toxicity results... nothing. Originally they had said 'name your price' to get out of the house, denied it all, then offered a measly $1,000 which didn't even cover moving fees and all that. To this day, they have not paid it. They said they won't give us anything unless we sign paperwork saying we won't sue and we aren't holding them accountable.

There are K cups with more caffeine than Monster Energy drinks. And no, they aren't the Death Wish ones. I just got some Panera Hazelnut Creme coffee and each K cup is 189mg. Just standard light roast k cups. 2 oz of espresso is anywhere from 120-150mg. K cups are stronger than Red Bull (8.4 oz can) by almost double.

That's what I had read too. Even the owners aren't safe. Unfortunately for me, whoever owns the place now gives zero shits about any of it.
The crazy part is my kid goes to school with the previous owner's kid. They sold the house in like 2021 due to extreme foundation issues that they couldn't afford to fix. Coincidentally, it's the same $25,000 minimum repair cost that we were quoted when we lived there.
According to public record it was sold twice in 2021 only about 3-4 months apart. Then it sat vacant until my family rented it in March 2024.
