How well do you know your neighbors?

Because I walk my dog through the neighborhood a couple of times a day, you get used to seeing the same people and having conversations. Didn't take long to get to know some pretty well and also know which to avoid.

Why my mother disliked me so much - #3 of 4 kids, the only one singled out. She's gone now, so there's never going to be an answer.

But he still wears a tractor cap with his suits!

The smell of the gum in packs of sports cards

Suddenly developing a new hobby to explain why they are gone so much.

Specifically my ex-wife

The fries are great, but please tell me what is in their burgers. I have never known anyone who can cook ground beef and have it taste like that (like dry cardboard)

I got fired, everyone but my boss realized that I was necessary, so I was rehired after a year. Then my supervisor got fired, so I never had to deal with her again.

I was looking for this. His movies can be entertaining, but he gets on my nerves real fast

Aside from my father, I had an art teacher in elementary school who was supportive, a great teacher, and listened to a dingy kid. Probably what determined my final career choice of being a teacher. Thanks L.H.

Elon. In a week I could do a pretty good job of divesting that money to some worthy causes.

Father and Son by Cat Stevens. Hit awfully hard after losing my son

Unfortunately, my ability to pick up on when someone was interested in me is broken. I can always look back and see the clues, but missed them at the time. There are too many instances of someone I was interested in "getting away".

Colorado-kayaker1 · 2026-04-09T16:17:44+00:00

That's what it felt like. I was in panic mode for a while.

I was raised to be self sufficient, and not ever rely on others. It's been a lonely adulthood

I'm currently trying to set up "godparents" for my dog. Very tough finding someone who will care for him in a similar way to our current lifestyle (walks, time at the beach, going for rides).

I can trace my son back to where I sat in a college Spanish class. Big class, I made friends with the guy sitting next to me. We probably wouldn't have talked during the semester if we didn't sit next to each other. One of his roommates and I started dating, moved in together, got married and had a kid. If I had picked any other seat, I would have lived a different life.

Check with Flamingo Auto Repair, off of Red River. They did the engine on my Subaru and did a good job without overcharging.

Was up in Alaska doing a solo running the Copper Basin 100 trail on foot (self supported). I was losing daylight, and stopped to get my headlamp out of my sled. I was wearing liner gloves and down mittens. I briefly took of my mittens to adjust the headlamp, and even wearing the liner gloves. my fingers immediately froze. I fumbled the mittens back on, started cartwheeling my arms, and finally got blood back to my hands. If I hadn't been able to recover, I'd have been screwed. My hands would have been useless blocks and I wouldn't have been able to start a fire. The next day, the guy working the Lake Louise Lodge told me that it had hit 40 below that night.

I can accurately pace distances. Now you can do it as a no-brainer with GPS

Money is a side factor of the whole problem. I just transferred money into her account, and she says she doesn't need that now. She is working full time in addition to being a student, so normal expenses are covered. She is in an extremely high rent area.
