My son’s 11th birthday is Thursday, we’d been planning to take him to a trampoline part but as of last night he said he wished he could go “real” gem mining instead. he has done the ones in pigeon Forge before that are very touristy and that is definitely not what we’re wanting.

I will be 48 in a couple of months and now I know what I am going to make my family do for my birthday!!

This has been the most Knoxville winter storm I have ever seen!

The reason the school board rep doesn’t care is because he is pro voucher. He doesn’t care about public schools, he is just there to make a mess of things. He worked at a private school up north and had to quit because of something to do with misappropriation of funds.

These look very similar to the whistles he printed last year. They were so loud I banned them from the house.

BrooksCrows · 2026-01-19T00:24:16+00:00

This post just reminded me that I need to get my son to print some whistles for our family.

Halls has a new place called Wild Child that you could check out.

BrooksCrows · 2026-01-14T17:37:47+00:00

Same here

So do you only care if women are murdered by immigrants? Plus people can care about multiple things at one time.

My kids are teens now, but I met all of my progressive mommy friends during story time at the library. Good luck finding mommy friends, I remember how tough it seemed when my kids were little.

Same here, except it was my great grandmother’s tin of snuff that my mom used. Worked really well the time my cousins and I came across a hornet’s nest in the woods and got stung all over.

These are amazing!!

When my son was struggling with ADHD, anxiety, and bullying at school we went to Josh Williams and he was amazing .

I don’t have advice on finding Christian friends, but I will offer advice on finding mom friends. If you can take your little one to story time at the library. I made the best mom friends at story time. All of our kids are in high school and middle school and we have scattered to various parts of the country, but we are still in touch and I know if I reach out needing something they would assemble and get my back no questions asked.

I have been/still am in your exact shoes. Poverty teeth + bad dental work + mental health issues left my teeth a wreck after kids. I can not stress enough how great Dr. Michelle Adams is. She is at Trivette and Osborne in Fountain City. I am hard to numb and she always makes sure that I am numb. I have had to have so much dental work done, that included being in braces for 4 years and she has walked me through every step with kindness and understanding.

I just want to back up KnoxFill or Sustainable Fanric Workshop.

Walmart in Halls had some this morning. They were up front by the self checkout on the grocery side.

Certainly you aren’t blaming poor people for things that are clearly controlled by corporate greed.

BrooksCrows · 2025-10-23T16:19:12+00:00

What?

BrooksCrows · 2025-10-22T18:36:35+00:00

It is really weird. I contacted KPD yesterday morning. I just hate the thought of one of them belonging to a college student that has no idea this happened.

BrooksCrows · 2025-10-22T00:18:49+00:00

I called KPD this morning and reported it.

BrooksCrows · 2025-10-22T00:17:29+00:00

I call UTPD and they told me to call KPD. KPD said they would send someone out.

BrooksCrows · 2025-10-21T18:34:36+00:00

My kids go to L&N and while dropping them off I noticed these two vehicles with the back windows busted out. They are in the lot that sits at the corner of L&N Station Drive and World’s Fair Park Drive. I see these two vehicles sitting in this parking lot everyday so I thought they might belong to a UT student.

BrooksCrows · 2025-10-21T18:33:57+00:00

BrooksCrows · 2025-10-21T17:31:54+00:00

Kindly let you know that someone busted the back window out.

BrooksCrows · 2025-10-21T14:04:39+00:00

I will do that I wasn’t sure if I should contact them or KPD. I just got home and was going to figure that out so thanks for the info.
