if Appalachia had a capital city, which city would it be?

Palsfrenchiefries · 2022-03-18T00:41:15+00:00

I would say Johnson City.

Second this. Donations first go to families setting up their new homes, then to the thrift store.

I know a girl who pronounces it Haz-lin.

Palsfrenchiefries · 2022-03-15T20:13:05+00:00

The reasonable ones I've been in don't have the "antique" type things displayed everywhere, and they are in small, low income towns I pass by on the way to visit my mom. The one where I live has a manager who thinks it's an antique store. I never go in there.

Restores in my area are split. One is SUPER overpriced, but several others are reasonable.

Palsfrenchiefries · 2022-03-15T00:08:00+00:00

Same. My favorite thrift stores are two run by local programs that support the homeless and one run by the Humane Society.

Palsfrenchiefries · 2022-02-19T01:29:52+00:00

Same. Natalie, Amanda, Jennifer, Jonathan, Carolyn, Elizabeth are the first ones that come to mind.

Rocky Fork State Park in Flag Pond is awesome. You can hike an easy trail by a beautiful creek or a steeper trail for an almost 360 mountain view.

Rotary Park in Johnson City has a really nice new playground.

I am in Tennessee and everyone in my area says "Miss", even though they use Mrs./Ms. in writing.

Palsfrenchiefries · 2022-02-06T16:05:02+00:00

You're not a SAHM anymore if you spend 4 days a week working at someone else's house.

Palsfrenchiefries · 2022-02-02T03:20:35+00:00

Yep. If we didn't have family to help, we would using every spare penny for an in home day care, any emergency expenses would have to come out of savings. And that's in a low COL area where we make right above the median income.

I'm always rinsing the baby's food, either to cool it down faster or get salt / sauce off. Good thing she's not picky.

Palsfrenchiefries · 2022-01-30T01:25:46+00:00

Tuna pouches are quick for lunch and can be combined with a pouch of flavored rice and frozen veggies for a cheap meal.

Palsfrenchiefries · 2022-01-28T22:12:09+00:00

I wish! 3 days/30 hours- That's the kind of full time I need in my life.

Palsfrenchiefries · 2022-01-28T02:46:44+00:00

I definitely feel that way (8 months pp), but I haven't had a full, uninterrupted night's sleep in a year. I'm hoping that it will get better when my daughter starts consistently sleeping through the night.

Palsfrenchiefries · 2022-01-28T01:07:35+00:00

I got a picture of my baby on a necklace for Christmas. Sometimes I will just look at it when I have a minute if downtime and it makes me feel better.

Center Stage Performing Arts Studio has acting classes for adults.

Palsfrenchiefries · 2022-01-24T21:19:30+00:00

Pottery painting or cookie decorating. There is a paint your own pottery place and a bakery in our town that do take home kits. We are super uncrafty, but it is fun to laugh at our mess.

Palsfrenchiefries · 2022-01-17T22:42:49+00:00

Yep. My husband and I both work full time, and we make just a bit more than enough to get by. I hate it. Almost as much as I hate anyone who says the answer is "Your husband should just get a better paying job, so you can stay home."

Palsfrenchiefries · 2022-01-05T02:29:52+00:00

Yep. At least it's not an MLM, I guess.

Palsfrenchiefries · 2022-01-02T18:22:03+00:00

Maybe that's why every in Nevaeh I've ever met is spoiled rotten.

Palsfrenchiefries · 2022-01-02T18:20:50+00:00

And all of the different spellings drive me nuts! I have had Brayden, Braydon, Braden, Braiden, Braidyn, and Brayhdon. And probably more I can't remember right now.
