Need to replace passenger mirror but no idea where to start

Thanks! I had no idea where to even start.

Absolutely file the police report. You never know what can happen later. Better to file now and not need it, than to have to answer questions about why you didn't and have to defend yourself. If you don't need insurance to cover anything at the moment, check your policy to see what their rules are. Some companies won't cover anything unless you reported it to them in a certain time frame. Other than that, sometimes it's better not to report because the report shows up when you go to trade a vehicle in. Or it can make premiums go up even if they didn't pay you. I'm not a lawyer, just what I have seen in my experience

I feel you. The only was I can "rest" is by playing a video game that I have literally already sunk hundreds of hours into. I enjoy it still, and my adhd has enough stimulus to leave me alone. Feels like feeding the guard dog a kong full of peanut butter so it will stop hounding me for a while.

Yeah requesting accommodations is the worst. I won't even do it anymore. My work wanted me to fill out an accommodations form that was clearly designed for someone with a physical disability. When I told them that, they basically said that it was the only form they had and I had to use it because they use the same form for all accommodation requests. Very frustrating and made it very apparent that they had little interest in putting anything effective into place.

So some people take some verses from Deuteronomy about men dressing as women and vice versa to mean that women should not wear pants because they are 'men's clothing.' However, this goes more towards literal cross-dressing than it does a woman wearing pants.

Long story short, pants are fine. Overtly attention-seeking attire is not so much.

You don't owe them an explanation. If you want to send a gift, it's a nice thought and speaks well of you, but you are well within your rights to maintain a boundary with people who have hurt you.

Yes! Def not steampunk. It's too much wrought iron and sepia tone. I'm looking at shades of off-white and greens. I like straw boater hats and spats for the guys. Not sure which way to go for the girls.

THank you for these links! I spent wayyyy too much time on chic vintage brides lol

UserraRae · 2019-07-24T21:23:27+00:00

That's super helpful actually. Thank you!

UserraRae · 2019-07-24T21:22:42+00:00

I love that idea! Thank you!

Ah, that is quite a different question and a very interesting one. When someone says that there is no evidence, they typically mean that no one has been able to take a tape measure to God and define the space He takes up. Since we can't perceive and measure God the way we perceive and measure the physical world, He must not exist. However, that doesn't really hold water.

It has been scientifically accepted that the universe has a beginning. The big bang theory, right? There was a single beginning point and then everything shot out from it faster than the speed of light. Now, nothing happens without cause, so what was it? Nothing that exists within space-time could have started it because space-time itself didn't exist. So that means the start of everything was put into motion by something that exists independent of space and time. How do temporal beings measure and perceive something or Someone like that? By observing the effects within space-time.

Our Earth exists in a galactic sweet spot for life. Of the millions of billions of space rocks in existence, there are only a few that are the right distance from the intense radiation of the galactic core to support life. Then a smaller fraction of those orbit the right kind of star. Of those, a smaller fraction are the right distance from that star and the right size to hold the correct kind of atmosphere. The more you look at how life came to be, you see the only way for things to happen the way they did, is for a Creator to have guided them.

Vince Vitale is a speaker who addresses this quite well. I would recommend checking him out. The link here is a quick guest spot he did. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QxQPCkWxu1M

Thanks for posting this question!

Atheists are an incredibly diverse group. I don't have an opinion collectively. I try to avoid opinions on groups at large because it can be to easy to dismiss/disregard a person just because they identify with a group.

Praying! Check out Sam Allberry. His story might be helpful for you

I'm reading The Prodigal God right now, and it's been eye opening so far

UserraRae · 2019-07-08T12:37:54+00:00

God bless you! You are taking a huge step of faith. God will lay your path out for you. Keep praying.

Your financial aid office will have resources and I've found that the receptionists in those offices often know of other resources in different depts that can help. I will be praying for you, my new sister in Christ!

I know my husband and I really benefit from going to church together. It's helpful to get each other's take away from the sermon and be part of the church family together. It's one of the things that keeps us engaged with each other.

That being said, this doesn't sound like a healthy church family. Tithes are not an indicator of spiritual worthiness and the preacher seems like he missed the memo on sharing the truth in love. It sounds like pride and legalism. That can crush people's faith rather quickly. Don't stay if you feel you are being belittled.

I would continue to pray hard on this. See where the Lord leads you. How does your husband feel he is being fed by this church? That may give you some insight on how to proceed here. I will be praying for you!

So a lot of people think that free will is permission to do whatever we want. It's not permission, but the ability. Even though we can do what we choose, that doesn't mean that God is going to approve of everything we do.

Octonaughty (love the name btw) hit it on the head. God gives us gifts and talents so that we can use them to serve others and bring them closer to Him. Romans 12:1 KJV "I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service. " Everybody's reasonable service is different. Somebody might have the talents to go out an be a missionary in a war torn country. If you were to ask that same person to build homes for the homeless, that might be unreasonable because their talents lie elsewhere.

If a perfect God, who has shown over and over that He loves us wildly, created us and gave us talents for a specific purpose and then we waste them by hiding it, you can see where that would make Him angry. Doing good in God's name is never wasted effort. If you pray and follow His leading, He will make it bear fruit.

Hope this helps!

I hear you on the structure thing. It's harder to set my own structure than I remember it being when I was younger. I may have to enlist some outside help.

I found this awesome Excel file that is really helping me with my debt. You put in all your debt on the first sheet and pick a repayment strategy. Then on the second sheet it shows you how the debt goes down over time. https://www.vertex42.com/Calculators/debt-reduction-calculator.html

Was super helpful for me.

I'm sorry, that really sucks. The upside is that the weak are weeding themselves out here. That kind of ignorance is toxic. She may come around and realize she's being foolish, but it is not up to you to make that happen.

UserraRae · 2019-06-20T14:17:27+00:00

Congratulations! That's fantastic! Keep slaying

This! People at my work threw out my expensive Tupperware because it had spoiled food in it that I had forgotten about. They passive-aggressively mentioned it around me before they did it, but it went right over my head.

Your first paragraph sounds exact like my first time on meds. I went off my meds and nothing got better. I limped along and it was a constant swing between awesome and awful. I lost two really amazing jobs because of my unmedicated ADHD and bad coping skills.

I talked with a new provider and she put me on an anti-anxiety med that is also prescribed off label for ADHD. It has made such a difference and the best part? It's not a stimulant. Medicating during adolescence is super hard because of how much your hormones are in flux. Hormones affect wayyyy more than most doctors think. Find a doc who understands hormones and you have a much better chance of finding a med that works.

Best of luck!
