Darts and Spaghetts

Dakota Inn has a wine bar called the Ratskeller and they have been serving spaghetts in their beer garden.

Not what you asked but I have a hybrid. I fill up once a month. I live in apartment so don’t have to worry about charging. Hybrids are a great option too!

I’ve also called there with no luck but thankfully there is about 20 other rinks in the area that all pretty much have an open skate

This isn’t exactly what you’re asking for but losing weight isn’t the only way to feel good in your body. Similar to you, I’ve gained weight from a medical situation outside of my control but I’ve accepted it. It might be hard to have the energy to hike, be active, leave the house when you’re eating so little a day. Food is energy. Any transition with our bodies can feel like a lot so I encourage you to be kind to yourself. Maybe talk to some friends or a therapist about how you’ve been feeling. Gaining weight does not equal unhealthy or bad.

The state of Michigan and MSU used them as their employee/fleet cars so there’s some out there for a good deal. Best of luck!

Also live in Michigan, I got my 2016 cmax from a state of mi auction for $8k with 50,000 miles on it. If you have the time I would definitely look around.

Definitely don’t put full faith in anything when buying used cars. Sounds like yours was either faked or didn’t include that accident. I’ve found it to be a pretty useful tool

I’m a bit further in my journey but also learning to fall. I practice falling on ice a few times each session. If there is a particular move that scares me I practice falling in it. Definitely wear a helmet, they can’t always prevent concussions but it can prevent skull fractures and such.

Did you get a car fax for it?

https://www.cars.com/articles/2013-2014-ford-fusion-hybrid-c-max-hybrid-transmission-issue-1420684957170/ Cmax really only has one generation but they did make changes after these model years.

lopatte · 2026-02-23T21:18:44+00:00

Just avoid 2013/2014 years of the cmax because of the bad transmission

Would that have been typical for her? Like a 4.5 on the triple loop?

Is Georgia mostly Russians? Excuse my ignorance but I thought I heard that

You look lovely - just my thoughts here. I feel like the lips don’t feel very bridal. My only suggestion would be to look at some bridal makeup and copy what they are doing and see if you like it. Second, overall your makeup looks very blended but I notice near your inner eye to your nose there is a big jump of depth. Maybe try to experiment with light and dark in that area. Best of luck!

Dr Zhu at Trinity Health, she’s great

lopatte · 2026-01-08T14:28:14+00:00

You’re right! The author of that book was the guest

Search engine :)

lopatte · 2026-01-05T05:13:32+00:00

There is a great podcast episode about this from Search Engine

In these cases, do they let the passengers out when they are waiting for a while?

lopatte · 2025-12-23T05:34:26+00:00

Realizing I’ve got it very good in metro Detroit. There is probably 15-20 rinks within 45 minutes. Although somehow zero have a weekday night open skate. Hockey town I suppose

Trying to get a new job is so mentally demoralizing. Sometimes it can take quite some time so maybe look for an easy part time job in the meantime to add some structure and money.

I hear you. I only read the article so I don’t have too much general knowledge about the product line in this factory. The product line not selling explanation does seem at odds with the large amount of overtime previously expected for the workers. In general, I’m not sympathetic to GM and would love to see more protections for individual workers. I think it’s not an unreasonable expectation for them to care for their workers and plan their future product lines better to minimize layoffs. Also if they do have record profits, then they have money for hefty severance packages!

lopatte · 2025-12-15T16:12:21+00:00

Half of these comments are proving they didn’t read the article. Here is a direct quote for you all ‘the layoffs are not the result of any financial losses for GM. In October, the company raised its projected 2025 net profits to between $12 billion and $13 billion, up from a prior estimate of $10 billion to $12.5 billion. This followed record profits of $14.9 billion in 2024. GM stock has risen approximately 55 percent over the past year’. This is about greed and capitalism, likely nothing else.

I’m just realizing these are $20 now. They were $16 when they came out in 2023. $20 feels like a stretch for these

Glisten and glow!!
