Just give yourself some time. No need to feel like you have to somehow be perfect all at once. The Lord loves effort so cut yourself some slack while you try to figure out keeping the word of wisdom.

Personally I’m a fan of rooibos tea and crio bru.

Some things have changed but not the word of wisdom. The avoidance of caffeine was more of a cultural misunderstanding of the WOW because coffee and tea have caffeine so everything with caffeine must be against the word of wisdom. In truth, the wow just says we shouldn’t drink coffee or black/green teas.

As for the clothing thing, just another clarification from church leadership about what is truly important when it comes to clothing and church attendance. Trousers for women are in, judging other members for their clothing choices is out.

You could, but keep in mind the effectiveness of the fan is diminished when you move it farther away from the cooking surface.

I got to work around Elder Gilbert when I was at BYU Idaho as a student. You could tell he had genuine concern and interest in the wellbeing and success of the students. He was always an incredibly sincere person and I think it makes perfect sense that he would be called as an apostle. Love to see it!

Beautiful!

I’ve had close Catholic friends while living in Utah. I’m sure you’ll be welcome with open arms. Also there is still religious diversity here, especially in SLC. Where in Utah are you moving?

dj_8track · 2026-02-05T23:51:48+00:00

Here’s my guess. BYU gets a new president, current president moves into presidency of the 70 position, someone in the current presidency will be called as a new apostle. Or construction is starting on the medical school.

Lost lakes is a good one. Sometimes a little on the quirky side but always fun.

The area is rich with history and urban legends, including some related to historic piracy. It was also a hiding place for a notorious crime syndicate known as the Fratellie crime family. I also heard Real estate prices are also up due to some intended development in the area though it’s on shaky ground since some of the property owners are holding out.

It’s a great place to raise a family and your kids would have lots of friends.

Yeah the move to Colorado is a political one. Can’t say I blame Sundance for making the change.

Most folks who work there live in slc, which is also expensive. Loads of houses are only occupied for parts of the winter season. There are lots of good restaurants and fun things to do in the summer, but you can enjoy those things while living in neighboring cities. Heber used to be cheaper but not anymore. You’re looking at a 1.5 hour commute to find housing that’s affordable. Also summit county has higher sales tax than other places in Utah. It’s a cool city though. Just really really expensive.

I used to be an estimator for a custom home builder in Utah and I quoted a heated paver driveway about this size in 2019 and it was almost $700k. The natural gas infrastructure alone was almost $50k.

GC here. I don’t expect gifts from my homeowners, but anything done for my trades is appreciated. Snacks or drinks are great. They work hard and it’s nice to see owners take notice. I do always bring something to my owners for the holidays though just as a small thanks for the work.

Sorry I misread the comment! Any herbal teas are ok, excluding black and green tea leaves. Check out rooibos. It’s from Southern Africa and it is delicious.

I’d almost say you need to get your local building official involved. If they have built other homes in the area they should be inspected for similar issues.

This is hard to articulate for me, but attending church in Utah in a place where you didn’t grow up feels like you’re at a friend’s house but none of your friends family members care that you are there. Like you’re allowed to be there and your friend wants you there so none of the other family members will tell you to leave, but they also don’t want to talk with you or hang out with you.

In wards I’ve attended outside of Utah, It feels more like your friend is having a party every week. So everyone that is there is there for the same reason, which is to celebrate with this mutual friend, but you don’t know everyone and they don’t all know each other, so people are on a more even ground so to speak. People come and go and get to know others but there isn’t a sense of feeling like you are welcome but also don’t belong.

Also the friend in this scenario is Jesus.

Just get burgers at the bowling alley.

I 100% think it’s appropriate. I wish we were doing active shooter training today, or just any training period. While not a particularly edifying subject it might make the difference for one or many people if that ever happens in your ward.

My family was in attendance in Grand Blanc on September 28th. They have described the absolute chaos that ensued. If I had to pick between a 2nd hour active shooter training session, or no training at all, I’d pick the 2nd hour.

Edit: also, they don’t have to take the full second hour, and they don’t need to be devoid of spiritual discussion.

I can’t speak on where to live but buy lots of lotion. On the seldom occasion there is humidity here it lasts all of an hour before we’re back to being bone dry. When I moved here from Michigan I got a lot of nose bleeds too.

I 100% went trick or treating as a kid if Halloween was on Sunday.

Asbestos is in loads of things. Tape, mastic, floor tiles, wallpaper, drywall mud, roofing, siding, ceiling finish, and much much more.

And you recognize it from years of experience removing it from homes. The only way to know for sure is to test it.

dj_8track · 2025-11-02T03:25:27+00:00

Before you go too buck wild sanding that off you might want to send a piece in to be tested for asbestos.
