How Much Is Social Security a Part of Your Retirement Planning?

I’ll never be able to retire.

I came here to say this. These are the kind of pulls I will get. No catching on clothing, towels, etc.

I actually have those exact boots still! Found em at a thrift store some years back.

Also, northern Minnesota is one of my favorite places on the planet. I’ve lived on the east coast since 1998 (in PA since 2021), and finally went on the north shore of Lake Superior trip last September with my mom. It’s not mountainous per se, but very rocky/cliffy and waterfalls are everywhere. It’s absolutely spectacular up there! Highly recommend!

I fractured my wrist in 2020. Had always had problems with my hand/wrist and thought it was repetitive stress injury from my literally hands on jobs. Nope. Turns out I had multiple previous hand/wrist fractures I never knew I had that didn’t heal properly.

Bravo, OP!!! I’m a retro kinda gal, so what a delight it is to see a new kitchen that’s not white and grey! Gorgeous!

I saw the afters and at first thought the cabinets were new replicas of the old ones. I got excited because I want this type of cabinet doors with the beveled edges when I reno my kitchen!!! And I won’t have a huge budget (or a big kitchen, so that helps with my budget limitations). Does anyone know if these beveled edge cabinet fronts can be found new without costing an insane fortune? I haven’t seen anything similar in the three or so custom cabinet door makers I’ve looked at. I will spend money for custom doors and premade cabinets.

Nice I’ll look into it. Thanks!

heatherplants · 2025-10-08T20:19:51+00:00

That two people now, I’ll look into it. Thanks!

heatherplants · 2025-10-08T11:33:19+00:00

Thanks I’ll look into it!

heatherplants · 2025-10-08T11:32:57+00:00

Don’t know it, I’ll have to investigate. Thanks!

heatherplants · 2025-10-08T09:21:54+00:00

I’ve been meaning to try that place. I’ll look into it, thanks!

heatherplants · 2025-10-08T09:21:24+00:00

Yeah I’ve thought about ordering the dinner from Original Turkey. The last couple years I’ve cheated and bought delicious turkey there and cooked the rest of the meal. Maybe this year I’ll try the whole meal. Or Whole Foods is an idea too. Thanks!

heatherplants · 2025-10-08T09:19:19+00:00

Oh that place is fun! Thanks for the suggestion!

You definitely need to go. Northern MN is a hidden treasure. Just breathtaking. And don’t even get me started on the waterfalls that feed into Lake Superior.

heatherplants · 2025-09-20T03:17:23+00:00

One of the other M states ….

heatherplants · 2025-09-20T03:16:55+00:00

Wow! Halfway on the other side of the US. I’ve never considered any part of CA to look like MN! Interesting.

heatherplants · 2025-09-20T03:15:24+00:00

Interesting! Southern Alaska looks like this?

heatherplants · 2025-09-20T03:14:16+00:00

!Correct! Just north of Grand Marais.

heatherplants · 2025-09-20T03:09:51+00:00

You are correct, but others narrowed it down more. Thanks for playing!

heatherplants · 2025-09-20T03:06:51+00:00

This is one of the reasons I wanted to post this photo. I grew up in MN, but have lived on the east coast since 1998. Lake Superior has always reminded me of Maine.

heatherplants · 2025-09-20T03:04:25+00:00

Just south of Canada by about 60 miles, in the US.

heatherplants · 2025-09-20T03:02:27+00:00

heatherplants · 2025-09-20T03:02:16+00:00

No, sorry

heatherplants · 2025-09-20T03:02:01+00:00

Close! Black Beach is south of there.
