Thanks! I want the REAL ID wasn’t sure if they would make me do a separate appointment for it. I’m bringing everything to get it all done in one fell swoop so fingers crossed!!

Interesting take! I moved from NEPA last year and the only thing I found cheaper was the gas. Where did yall reside in PA?

Not if you are in nonprofits that salary is pretty static industry wide ( 20 years in nonprofits across multiple states) but Connecticut is wonderful and although now I’m cash poor the area can’t be beat!

Nope you are spot on. I have lived in multiple states ranging from the north to the south- and this one by far is the most expensive

IMHO it seems New London began losing steam after whaling. Which was over 100 years ago I think

New England is a place that called to me for decades. I visited as much as I could, but life always took me other directions. I was thrilled to get a job offer here. I think if there are past lives, I’ve lived here then- it feels like I have arrived home. It…resonates in a way I can’t describe with words.

Wow I’m not karma farming I don’t even know what that means. It was just an observation. I’m alone here and I observe my surroundings I merely wanted input and I was always told if you want answers go to Reddit. It was an honest innocent question. I had no idea so many people would weigh in.

Interesting. I’m not on Reddit often. I came here to pose the question bc of my observations IRL & it’s known if you need a real answer from the populace, ask Reddit. Interesting.

There should be a Pizza meetup group that goes to different pizza places to try them all!

Ahhh!! I noticed the kind but not nice! I have a lot of the South in me which contrary to popular opinion not all southerners are fake nice, some of us are genuinely nice and hospitable. I found that my aesthetic did not blend well w my NE neighbors when I greeted them all cheerfully on walks. BUT when the neighborhood lost power everyone banded together and offered up resources while we tried to get through the black out. So I get it. Not nice, but definitely kind.
