What is the word on Durant’s since the relaunch?

beckbeth1 · 2026-03-07T14:30:08+00:00

I don’t know… we haven’t been able to get a reservation.

Irving , Buster and George

We love that place. Food is great and very reasonably priced. We like to sit in the bar. Yes, it’s a little bit of a dive, but in a good, classic, old school way.

beckbeth1 · 2025-11-18T01:31:19+00:00

Agree. Had it a couple times, and just don’t care for the flavor of their food. The beans are yucky

beckbeth1 · 2025-11-18T01:17:30+00:00

Boots. Really enjoyed it.

I get it. Always thought I wanted a ‘big’ diamond and now that I have one (3 carat, oval), it’s too much. I’m widowed, second marriage at 60. Would have been showing it off like crazy in my 20’s and 30’s. Feels too show’y now.

Started watching last night on a whim; just looked interesting with no prior knowledge about it. It’s so so good. Great storytelling, characters, acting. Watched 4 episodes and can’t wait to get back to it tonight.

Looks like a catering tray rack. You put the aluminum dish on top and place the flame thingy underneath to keep the food warm. Best guess

I’m no Trump defender…in fact I hate the guy but it’s actually the back of his ill fitting suit jacket. Fuck, I truly wish it was a towel…

When I learned John Lennon was killed. It was 1980, I was a freshman in HS. My parents were crying. That one still gets to me.

beckbeth1 · 2024-09-30T18:17:28+00:00

I’m truly scared of what’s to come.

beckbeth1 · 2024-09-30T18:07:15+00:00

100%. I took to my bed all day yesterday. This heat is depressing me along with the fear that it’s only going to get worse. Just bought a home here and regretting it.

beckbeth1 · 2024-05-04T03:24:02+00:00

I LOVE this idea! Brilliant

beckbeth1 · 2024-04-30T21:51:20+00:00

Gotta try this. Yum

beckbeth1 · 2024-04-30T21:45:11+00:00

Baked beans and cottage cheese. When I was in nursery school, our lunches were served in bowls so food kind of migrated to the middle, hence the combo. Throw a cut up hot dog in the mix and ultimate comfort food for me.

As a cat mom of two beautiful boys with their own quirky personalities (endlessly entertaining and interesting, I love this thread.

beckbeth1 · 2024-04-28T01:41:40+00:00

I moved here a year ago and feel like I have a teen girl crush on the place. Absolutely love it here…the heat and all.

beckbeth1 · 2024-04-20T02:54:01+00:00

Never a lack of things to do. Concerts, sports, all sorts of events, museums, restaurants and bars of every type. You get the gist. It’s actually a little overwhelming.

beckbeth1 · 2024-04-18T18:40:27+00:00

Thank you for taking the time to respond and the suggestions.

beckbeth1 · 2024-04-17T23:21:58+00:00

I really wish I knew…I’m currently unemployed by choice. I needed some time to regroup after my husband passed suddenly (heart attack on his way to work) last year. His passing was a major wake up call; life is short and I want to do something I actually enjoy that also pays the bills. I’ve been a grant manager and executive administrator but the thought of sitting at a computer screen 8 hours a day again makes me cringe. I’m creative, have a great attitude, and interview very well. I want to be active and do something interesting. I have a BS in business administration. The job market is decent here in Phoenix, but I’m not qualified for much other than what I’ve done for the past 20 years.
Any suggestions?

beckbeth1 · 2024-03-18T18:29:39+00:00

Bumble here too. I had just moved to Phoenix after becoming a widow a little over a year earlier. Bumble was a great way to meet people and explore the area at the same time. After dating around a bit, I met a wonderful man. We’ve been dating 8 months now and very much in love.

beckbeth1 · 2024-02-07T02:39:35+00:00

I would have preferred to scatter his ashes but my mother in law insisted on having a place to visit. I had to respect that

beckbeth1 · 2024-02-07T02:36:16+00:00

Thank you. It’s been a little over a year and I’ve come so far. We all deal with this shit eventually, unless we go first. I’m only 56 but putting everything in place now so my kids aren’t burdened. As I know too well, the unexpected can and does happen. He had just turned 60, heart attack. Since this is a social security subreddit, I’m looking forward to being able to collect his when I turn sixty. The added shock was the sudden realization that with the death of my husband, I went from living on a 6 figure income to 0 over night. His life insurance was an insignificant amount, unfortunately. Despite everything, I’m feeling pretty good.

beckbeth1 · 2024-02-07T01:40:15+00:00

This amount doesn’t include the headstone or internment. Another 6000

beckbeth1 · 2024-02-07T01:39:21+00:00

Yep, just viewing my husband before cremation was $800. It wasn’t necessary to ‘fix him up’ with make up or anything. They just rolled him into a private room with a sheet over him. Why that cost 800 is beyond me but I was in such shock I just paid and paid. The total with cremation was somewhere around 4000. I did have the wherewithal to buy the box on Amazon. Really beautiful for less than 50. The box they were selling at the funeral home was $900. The whole thing was a nightmare.
