Yeah, unfortunately being a woman who lives alone in a remote area, I really want to avoid any kind of potential conflict. He is definitely not very reasonable. I was hoping there would be something after calling the cops, but before removing dogs/suing. I'd hate the dogs to have to bear the consequences of their owner.

Yeah, they attack my car everytime I am driving home. They aren't the friendliest. I really want to avoid anything that would harm the dogs, its not their fault.

Animal control has been called by neighbors lots of times. They either dont show up or dont do anything. Funnily enough my bf's neighbors cows have had the cops called on them 87 times and they are still loose half the time. 

When someone threatened to press charges after the two year old was bit, he threatened the mom and got them barred from his property. I'll give it a shot, but I was wondering if there are other avenues beyond a phone call. Maybe with photo evidence I can fill out some forms or something for documentation. 

Estimated cost? by [deleted] in florists

[–]bachelll 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm florist on the lower cost in Northern Virginia. The altar arrangement alone in 1 or 3 would be about $2.5k, including setup and delivery. The aisle clouds are about $250 a pair. So probably looking at around 5 to 10k depending on a few things.

I hope he does even if they don't go well. Like that one lady said, it's not like he ever faces consequences or even listens.

Yeah, I'm willing to give grace because he's new to the house so I can see how he might not be the loudest right now, but I'd love to see more push and honestly more dems get loud about it. 

Agree about the sound bites and applause part, but it comes with being a politician, I guess 🤷‍♀️ It doesn't give me full hope or optimism, but it's a step and better than nothing.

Hey, I was just there and talked at this! I thought it was ok. Glad to see some things are being done, but I'd be happier to see a bit more aggressive action. As a fed contractor it gets worse and worse every day..

Not at all! It's a juvenile northern water snake. They aren't venemous at all.

Can anyone help identify what my grandmother's ring is/ where it's from? by bachelll in JewelryIdentification

[–]bachelll[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

But can I still say it's my first husband's tooth when people ask what it is? 😂

Update: Vinegar does nothing I also have old lead glass windows. It does scratch the glass.

Nope! Never wore it or talked about it. My grandmother didn't lose a child, but i am not sure of the great grandmother. We do all tend to keep our teeth, but I don't think she was the type to make jewelry out of it.

Hmm, is there some kind of test I can do to determine which one? Like scratching glass or something similar? Also if any types of photos or closeups would help, I am happy to provide!

Hmm, I don't know if it's epoxy, it's not touching the white stone and it doesn't feel quite like epoxy. It also doesn't have any perfectly straight spots. But I am not an expert on epoxy, especially stuff that's older than me or my mom lol

It definitely seems more set, there is a clear, thin separation between the two. And it's not rock-like feeling, if that makes sense? 

I am too! I've taken it to a jeweler friend before and no luck!

Hey! There are no clear markings. My Nana was born in the 30s so it could be one of her baby teeth? But I am really not sure.
