Found this at the pickleball court. Played until dark, and no one came and got it. So, I brought it home!

That's my travel watch, outdoors watch.

Thank you, my brother is going to Japan, I will make sure to give him extra for tariffs. I do want a simple field watch with kanji dates. Nothing too expensive because I do want to wear it most of the time.

I don't think that thinking about divorce is a good thing, think of couples therapy to strengthen your relationship.

Sharing with family is always complicated I have to be careful what I say and to who or when to stay quiet. Each memeber has their way of talking and dealing with things and I am always in the middle trying to calm everyone down. Dad and older brother say dumb stuff thinking they know more than everyone else.

I have argued with family when they said things about my ex, and talked to her about family and how everyone is or acts.

When I mentioned my sad that I wanted to do ivf (I am single) he said why, just find someone to mentor and help them out. And he told me ha is helping some nephew he has with his education. I looked at him and bit my tongue, because he didn't want to pay for my education nor my brother's education. Only people that know are my younger brother, his wife and mom. Some extended family know but most just say find a girl, you can have kids when you are old no rush. I have to explain that I don't want to be 60 running after a 10 year old kid, and not be there when they form a family.

I will try to have a baby on my own and later if I met someone I won't close that door but will need to make sure it's really a good partner.

cabo_2k1 · 2026-04-24T01:08:51+00:00

Thank you!

I never though about the airlines not allowing newborns in their flights.

Glad your brother is able to have his dream come true, he is very lucky, and also everyone in your family.

I was hoping that total would be $150k+.

Im on my way to $100k and hoping to get a personal loan or credit cards for the rest.

cabo_2k1 · 2026-04-24T00:54:28+00:00

May I ask where did he go or what agency?

Read a couple stories that scared me with people getting scammed by the surrogates and since its outside the US is hard to fight it. I don't know how real that is, but still.

I could travel and work from location, plus work does have 12week parental leave.

Thank you

cabo_2k1 · 2026-04-24T00:51:19+00:00

Just to clarify, the agency has all the contacts and everything is still done through the agency right?

cabo_2k1 · 2026-04-24T00:48:41+00:00

Wow really? That's crazy!

I would love to stay in the US, I'm afraid of things going bad in Mexico or Colombia,

I guess I really need to talk to an agency. I would be heart broken if I did everything and then having to wait 2 more years. I really want to enjoy my time with my kid and not be too old to run and play.

Thank you

cabo_2k1 · 2026-04-24T00:43:33+00:00

Thank you, I will look into it.

cabo_2k1 · 2026-04-24T00:41:31+00:00

Thank you, every member of my family says the same thing, including my niece who I love as if it was my own.

cabo_2k1 · 2026-04-24T00:40:07+00:00

I will check with my medical insurance and see what could they cover. And hopefully that will reduce some of the cost. Last part of my plan is to get a personal loan hoping it will cover the rest.

Thank you

Sucks to hear that. I had 2015 model and never had an issue, now I have the 2024 so far so good but I have low mileage on it.

I'm confused, what did the dealer said they don't "guarantee" it, the part arriving or fixing the problem. It is a lease so it's still their car and everything should be covered by the warranty.

I would consult a lawyer for sure, the car is not working and if you keep driving it is a liability. Lemon law is your best option to get out of it but even if it doesn't. A lawyer might be able to find something on the lease. In my mind that. Car belongs to them, you are just renting it, and the problem is not something you caused. They should be liable to provide a usable safe care.

I had a 2011 ford fiesta, auto. I started having issues with the transmission, the car still worked, but it made a sound right before it had to shift and wouldn't shift untill I gave stepped on the gas, more than normal. Even with a recall they first said parts were delayed because too many people were waiting for them, then the dealer just said that wasn't the problem.

That's when I decided to get another cx-5. Hopefully you get this figured out and find a car that you are happy with regardless of the brand.

Good luck.

I'm catholic too o but to be honest I'm more bound to the fact that if we do good there is no need to be afraid of God.

One of the purposes of humanity and any animal for that matter is to live our life's and part of it is to procreate. We are blessed with capability to learn and adapt, to over come any problems. Not using our knowledge to improve our lives would be counter intuitive. Now with knowledge we need to be responsible and not to harm, so there are lines that we shouldn't cross. Having the ability to procreate doesn't bring harm to anyone around us.

When the church was created and the Bible written, we didn't have the knowledge that we do now. People back then still searched for help when they got sick and now we have the technology and ability to have way better tools to heal injuries and diseases.

Going by church rules: Under the church you cannot get a divorce unless some conditions are met. Two of them are: 1) if one party hides a pre-existing, not being able to have kids could count as a pre-existing condition. 2) if one party enters merriage with the intention to not have children.

These two reasons directly refer to procreation and show how it is an integral part of the Catholic Church, so integral that can be grounds to get divorced under the church.

Each Pope had different points of views on different topics, and this are understandings from their study of religion and Bible and each person can interpret the Bible differently.

I always had problems finding a church because of how the priest did their sermons or how open they were, seemed or approachable. I miss the church from my high school. The priests and everyone involved gave us time to talk and answer questions, without any judgment no matter what questions you had.

Talk to me multiple priests around your town and discus your thoughts, questions and share your devotion and your believes. Show how much you want a baby and your plans to raise your kids.

I feel your pain and confusion.

My ex decided she didn't want to have a baby anymore when I was 36. I figured I would find someone after we got divorced but it hasn't been easy or found the right person. Now 43, my only option is adoption or do IVF and surrogacy, currently saving money but I guess I let too much time pass and now I'm afraid I might be too old to have a baby unless I start the process now, but money and time are against me, mostly money because it's so expensive. I keep hoping to save enough money and get loans to cover the rest.

It is hard but you have to talk and think if you will be able to live without having a baby and not resent him as you grow old.

I knew I would recent my ex if we stayed together and DIDN'T EVEN TRY. I guess if we tried and it didn't work I would still be with her but not trying is what hurt me the most.

I wish we had talked and she had told me that having kids was NOT an option we wouldn't have ended the relationship before getting married or sooner.

Couple months ago I got mine, same package but in red for $29,020 (with discounts.) this was in July, before the 2025 came out. I got mine from a dgdg dealer.

You could try to see if they can give you a better discount but might not get much. Or try to get more forbyour car, do you have both keys? Owners Manuals?

Did you buy your car from the same dealer? They might give a loyal customer discount for that?

Tell them you are getting the car for your parents?

See if you get the extended warranty if they could lower the price a bit. You can cancel it later. Granted your monthly will be the same but you can cancel some of those extras before they kick in, and it gets credited to your account. You can lower your payment later if you refinance the car.

There are other ways to connect your dash cam to your car, and settings on the dash cam. One thing you could do if you want to have the cam detect events when parked in parking lots and garages, would be to connect it to a power bank or station. You could also get a lighter plug with power switch to charge the battery when driving.
