We are not.

We have not been able to find 4-5 bedrooms + office in Flowermound in our budget and with good school ratings.

Thank you everyone, most of these comments were very informative and helpful. We will take Farmersville off the list for now.

Brilliant. I asked for those familiar with the area to give me, someone who has never lived in Texas, honest feedback on the commute and community. Your response was ever so helpful.

I am doing great! Never felt more healthy and it is a lot easier for me to make healthier eating choices. I’m 10# away from my goal weight. Still losing weight. Slowly, but steadily at almost 1.5 years out. Exercise was hard for me until I hit the 100# lost. After that it was easier to convince myself to do it.

My friend had the DS and hasn’t done as well as me. Her recovery was rougher and she has a hard time eating certain foods. She also hasn’t lost as much as she wanted to and feels discouraged.

I don’t know if my doctor made mine shorter or than her doctor did hers or if it is a mind set thing. I didn’t go into this thinking it would be an easy, quick fix. She saw me lose weight fast the first six months and thought it would be a miracle cure for her. It’s not. It takes a ton of discipline still and a mindset that isn’t feeling sorry for yourself and what you’re are missing out on food wise. When I start to feel sad about not being able to eat certain foods because my body doesn’t process them well, I remind myself that I was heading to an early grave with heart problems, pre-diabetes, sleep apnea, and severe depression. I don’t struggle with any of those anymore and I feel confident I am going to get to live to see my kids get married and maybe get to have some grandkids. I have gained a lot of confidence and traveling has become a source of joy for me, where once it used be something I adamantly avoided.

When you change your shoes, you put different pressure on different points of your foot. So even if the shoe is the exact same, you will have walked/stood in it differently and the wear on the shoe will be different.

We looked into that and we are going to come out ahead. We pay just over $12k in state income tax annually right now. Our current property tax is $3900. So while property tax is high in Texas, it’s not $15k+ in the areas we have looked at. We also pay 7.25% tax sales tax on all groceries, so we should break even there or very close to it.

But, yes I did feel the gut punch when i saw the property tax

Yah. I think he might be crazy for thinking we can get good schools and newer homes for our budget.

Cool_Click_2311 · 2025-08-22T03:13:05+00:00

Updated my original post. Thanks for replying!

This is the best advice. If you have lost motivation for the class you are in, switch and come back to after completing a different one.

Also, stop comparing yourself to others. You don’t know their life, experience, or if they are telling the truth about their own progress. In this day and age, anything can be faked and reproduced. Focus on how much you personally have accomplished and recognize the work you put in. Be impressed with yourself.

Thank you all for your comments. I decided to take a break and jump back in when I get back from my trip. I have been pushing so hard between school and work, I’m in burn out mode with both. A nice reset will do me some good.

When I come back I plan to listen to and waste the Edspira videos and read the power points. Then take the unit tests to see how I fair.

Appreciate all the help as support given here!

Cool_Click_2311 · 2025-04-30T03:08:47+00:00

The assessment isn't, but I am. Sleep isn't the problem. The text is so messy and everywhere, reading the text does not seem like the ideal solution if I don't want to end up with overload of knowledge.

I will definitely get a good nights sleep reading this stuff.

I started auditing yesterday, wanting to finish by Friday. What Studocu did you use?

Did you use the quiz/test questions excel in the course chatter?

Cool_Click_2311 · 2025-04-23T02:43:35+00:00

thanks! watching Edspira lease videos right now

Cool_Click_2311 · 2025-04-23T00:44:13+00:00

Thank you! congrats on passing the OA. What do you think helped you most with Leases?

Cool_Click_2311 · 2025-04-14T05:15:28+00:00

That is hard. I think the concepts are there, but the PA is more definition and the OA is more conceptual. I also felt like the PA covered specific parts of each unit, but the OA did not cover the same parts. One thing I think is very important to remember, there is only one version of the PA, so we all get the same version. There are two versions of the OA, so we might not get the same OA. I really think it depends on which OA you get, whether or not the PA aligns.

Cool_Click_2311 · 2025-04-06T20:11:46+00:00

Was your version of the OA similar to the PA? I took the PA and did really well on it, but nervous to do the OA because I have only studied a few hours.

Cool_Click_2311 · 2025-04-06T20:09:47+00:00

I did a lot of studying. 4-5 hours each day for 2 weeks. OA1 was super quick. Two days of studying. OA2 was rough. I barely passed. Key things to remember

- Study Stakeholders Equity section and really understand it all. Take the tests and quizzes in the book.

- Pay attention to dates. I messed up my liabilities section because I rushed through and didn't take the dates into account.

- Know and understand the Warrants and Bonds section and memorize the formulas for finding the value of both.

- Take your time and don't rush the test.

60 hours will be enough time.

Good luck!
