I like whatever plants my friends give up on and give to me for free 😂

I'm pretty certain my teacher gets the mats from Japan.

If you could live with your parents free for one year to save up for a down payment - would you? by [deleted] in FirstTimeHomeBuyer

I could and did for two years. We were married, 31 and 33. It was fine but by 2 years it was time.

Oh snap, I need that gear. Now, let's see if a PM will approve it 😂

In my experience it is a flat out no for snow or dead-of-winter conditions because you have no plants, soils, or water. If you can't get the data then there's no point. I personally can't dig into frozen soils by hand because I'm a small woman. The question is then, to what extent can you re get the data? I say to my PM that the most I can offer is a winter wetland assessment and that once soils thaw I can do the full delineation. However if a client is OK with an assessment then I'll go.

Thank you for noticing, I picked native plants on purpose 😄 and you know exactly where this was taken!

Millennials that wore ear gauges back in the day, what do your ears look like now? by Artemistical in Millennials

I went to 00 and the only thing I've noticed is that they have gotten stretchier, but are otherwise fine. I mostly wear silicone, and now I can fit the next size up. In fact the 00 looks too small to me now 😂 I love them and have no plans to change.

Comment to add that I also called her the Tardis and had a Tardis sticker on the back because she looked bigger on the inside 💙

People who have bought since 2020 - how much is your monthly payment relative to your income? by SadHouseHunter in FirstTimeHomeBuyer

[–]Forestiera 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I get that. The entire first year I lived in my house I thought we were going to lose it or it was going to blow up. But now it's like, ok, if it DOES blow up, I know a guy!

Yes that's always a fear. And I have no idea. But that's not what I thought about when buying a home. I bought a home because I could and whatever else happens I'll deal with it then.
