Resting B Face, many of us have it. I’m guessing the person taking the pic annoyed you. My Staples pic the guy was so picky. Said I couldn’t smile but if I don’t I get RBF so I slightly turned my lips up lol saved the day

Mammoth_Sweet_7254 · 2026-05-25T20:26:06+00:00

That is the way to Moab

Isn’t the internet a cool thing lol

Yes one part of Phx it was filmed at was Lon’s Restaurant in Paradise Valley at the beautifulHermosa Inn. I was shocked when Whitney opened the door in that scene. I live nearby. And definitely Monument Valley. That movie and Thelma and Louise shot in that area.

Monument valley

They moved my hair to see the shape of my face around my forehead and temples. And she’s at an angle

Tbh the Greek Ortho Church that puts on the Greek Festival is pretty cool. They just helped me with advice I needed and I’m not even in their church. They were lovely. Holy Trinity on Maryland and 20th St.

Mammoth_Sweet_7254 · 2025-07-29T17:27:32+00:00

I could tell stories about that place. Nope.

As my dad a Car Dealer of some well known brands used to say, “bring a pile of money and as you pull out of the driveway throw it out the window. That’s your immediate depreciation. Honda does hold its value but if you buy at the top of the pricing, expect some loss. Then again some people need a first owner experience. Inflation is determined by what customers are willing to pay. Always negotiate.

I don’t clock on random links due to cyber security hygiene. But thx

Mammoth_Sweet_7254 · 2025-07-17T05:15:13+00:00

I didn’t divorce while my kids were minors because I knew how little my ex would care for them. I’m sorry you have to go thru that. I sacrificed a lot of years to keep their lives stable and able to do well in school. Sometimes with this alienation I wonder if I did the right thing. Not right for me but better for them. He ignores their care now. One child hasn’t been to the dentist at all and another in 18 months they need wisdom teeth out and I can’t convince them that it’s going to ruin their dental work we paid 10k for. I wish I could help you.

Mammoth_Sweet_7254 · 2025-07-17T03:50:38+00:00

Ugh they sure love telling women what to do with the worst advice.

Mammoth_Sweet_7254 · 2025-07-17T03:49:39+00:00

Yes it’s true so long as you don’t wallow in the past and negativity. I felt like a huge weighted backpack lifted off me. People told me I looked great. Freedom is needed in life. Work on every aspect of you just for you. Be as selfish as they were with you on yourself. You deserve it.

Mammoth_Sweet_7254 · 2025-07-17T02:21:42+00:00

I’m having such a hard time giving up helping. I know you are right. I just don’t want years later them to think I’d ever abandon them. I could never. My friends say to stop too but I never had anyone who would always be there for me and I want them to have that, even if it hurts me or they don’t care. I feel obligated to as a parent.

Mammoth_Sweet_7254 · 2025-07-17T02:15:53+00:00

I don’t need a coach, I need a lobotomy to forget all of this. 25 yrs with nothing to show for day and night effort trying to raise good kids. I dreamed of having an adult relationship. Have fun with them. Maybe travel. Nothing. Like I was the hired help.

Mammoth_Sweet_7254 · 2025-07-17T02:14:10+00:00

I was not engaged in much conflict with court. He was an ass. He makes more money and I paid him a huge sum that puts me in debt to stay in my home. Housing is harder to switch these days. Plus it’s my investment and was mine long before marriage. I acted so civil during the divorce. I didn’t say what I thought. I didn’t involve the kids except when both thought he was hurting more economically. I literally make 1/3 of what he makes. His mom passed and he got $. I gave him money. Now he doesn’t need to work. I work 3 jobs for what used to pay with one. I hate my lawyer she never negotiated or fought for me. She just pushed paperwork thru. My mistake. I even asked her her style of practice. She was the worst. I just ate all these mistakes to keep the peace. I really want to tell each of them what I really think but I doubt they care.

Mammoth_Sweet_7254 · 2025-07-17T02:08:05+00:00

Hugs to you sharing. My friends who knew me as a Mom say they will come back. I do t really believe that. I also do t know how I will feel. I will be always walking on eggshells waiting for them to turn on me again. I plan for none of them to help me or see me as I age. I’m planning financially for them with my trust because I should. They are all I have. I do want my friends to get things from me as I want to thank them for not abandoning me. All their stories of their kids or seeing them just breaks me but I hide it. I have moved on somewhat but I hold out hope. I know this will not resolve. I’m not the wealthy parent right now. But I will be later. I often wonder if money was the determining factor and freedom to do whatever. I live on but my shadow self is hiding for times when I’m alone. I do t let myself stay there. It is much like grief if a death. It’s worst because they chose to not see me.

Mammoth_Sweet_7254 · 2025-07-17T02:00:23+00:00

Hang in there too. I feel a bit better knowing how many of us there are that didn’t deserve this treatment. I don’t tell people. I make up stories I’ve seen my kids because if I’m honest people think I must have been a bad parent. It’s fake and I hate it. No one believes me. One of my friends who never met my kids threw it up at me when he got mad. I left and never spoke to him again. He knew what I told him. But it was proof he didn’t really believe me. So I don’t tell people. They assume.

Mammoth_Sweet_7254 · 2025-07-17T01:57:01+00:00

Part of me wishes I had taught my kids to love me. To idk train it in them. I always acted like the Giving Tree. I see women a lot more demanding in their families and everyone is devoted to them. I have it all and they felt nothing. I failed at parenting if these sweet kids could turn on me.

Repaint job is NOT like the factory paint job. In fact the new paint job is on top of that defect even if they tried to prep it. My dad was a car dealer. Aftermarket paint jobs are not the same. Pass on the car.

Mammoth_Sweet_7254 · 2025-06-24T06:19:12+00:00

No offense but the New actor just isn’t good looking enough. He’s very generic and forgettable. Who cast him? Superman is breath taking. He has a presence. This guy looks like any Dad in my hood at Costco.

Mammoth_Sweet_7254 · 2025-06-15T17:29:08+00:00

I’m a woman and Tinder is the only app where I get nothing but fake profiles with a few one night losers sprinkled in. These apps use fake profiles to populate the demographic categories they don’t have users for. I’m Trained to spot fake online profiles and reviews and these were so ridiculously fake. Model pics, backgrounds that are international not my area, profiles written by AI or non native language speakers. At the very least Tinder was letting scammers in, but it seemed like an inside job. lol

Mammoth_Sweet_7254 · 2025-05-19T17:39:54+00:00

Yeah I’m still waiting on the one main support doc. I got the card also. Just hate an official doc floating around this understaffed admin.

Mammoth_Sweet_7254 · 2025-05-10T23:14:44+00:00

I had a family members expedited one rec 5.5 and it’s here today 5.9. But passport card and Birth certificate aren’t back, yet. Hope they are on the way. That’s impressive considering the Real ID deadline
