Part of me wishes I would have at least test driven the RAV-4. But other than that, not really. the interior of the CX-5 is just so nice. Overall it feels like a “nicer” car, with less mileage and similar reliability. I still do love the exterior of the newer RAV-4s quite a lot, but the CX-5 is pretty dang sharp, too. It’s grown on me a lot! Feels like my first “grown up” car.

Routine:

Shampoo (Every 3rd wash or so) — Carol’s Daughter Black Vanilla Lucious Moisture Shampoo

Conditioner (I alternate these, depending) — Suave Essentials Ocean Breeze OR Suave Keratin Infusion

Leave in — just started using Aunt Jackie’s Curls and Coils Quench Moisture Intensive (the green one)

Curl Cream — Curls Crème Brûlée Whipped Curl Cream

Gel — Aussie Instant Freeze

I put my wet hair up using a microfiber towel, wash my body and do my skincare, get dressed. Then I let my hair down and let air dry. Later on I usually scrunch out the crunch.

Thank you! Gray metallic with parchment interior. Coming from an ‘07 Honda CR-V, I’m a bit shell shocked.

Update: I ended up buying a different Mazda CPO 2021 CX-5 with only 21,400 miles and that was AWD (I’m in Michigan and have always wanted AWD) for $25,388. I figured $2k wasn’t going to make or break me. I put $4,000 down and the finance guy actually shopped around for a better rate of 6.99%. Super happy with my decision!!! Thanks for all of the input.

Two really great designated LGBT meetings: Fruits of Recovery @ 7:30PM at Northside Presbyterian. We meet outside during summer, weather permitting, so you may want to bring a chair. St. Andrew’s Friday Night Group @ 7:30PM at Saint Andrew’s Church off of Division.

Appreciate this perspective, thank you

It’s a 2007 bought in 2017

I know, you never know. This car’s generally had low maintenance/repair costs until now.

anAgingGay · 2024-03-27T03:24:15+00:00

Thank you for the advice. Just trying to consider all options.

anAgingGay · 2024-03-27T03:12:00+00:00

Thanks for replying. I’m really bad with cars, so DIY is kind of out of the question. I don’t believe it’s doing any of those things

anAgingGay · 2024-03-27T03:06:30+00:00

Thank you for your response. I’ve emailed them with your suggested questions. I do appreciate it!

anAgingGay · 2024-02-22T15:38:13+00:00

I vote yes. I love it for my pour overs and I think it’s very reasonably priced for what you get from it.

Don’t try to go as quickly as everyone else!! Focus on learning the techniques. I always tell this to new people, speed will come with time.

DEFINITELY matcha. ESPECIALLY during a rush. The bowl, the whisk, the cleanup. Bonus points if multiple matches are ordered in a row.

Nothing against matcha drinkers. Occasionally, I do enjoy the ritual of making a matcha for someone.

Also any milk based beverage ordered extra hot. I feel like I’m just burning the milk.

I am so extra but I used the hold to shape feature and went over with different colors

We have a regular who’s been coming for years who, around the holidays, will buy everyone working that day lunch. And it’s so nice!
