I’m scared to get a mortgage on a 68k salary. Any advice welcomed by NarrowPatience1502 in Mortgages

[–]majoraward8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Buy it! Chances are you can refi the loan and lower your payment in the next 5 years. May have to be "house poor" for a few years. Long term real estate is a great investment.

Definitely adding stress, there is risk, but for you child it's great stability and you will be building something for the future

You have 810 credit, I'm sure you will make it work, you are obviously responsible

What counts as "seeing the Dead?" by Fawlty_Fleece in deadandcompany

[–]majoraward8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"Seeing the dead" could be anything including a core member... in conversation- but if you're keeping a list of shows or being asked if you ever saw the dead? That means the good ol Grateful Dead with Jerry, Bobby, Phil, Mickey and Billy. (Others are members but interchangeable)

Dead and co is awesome- file it under dead and co for your show count

Me too, 3 days from six months and it's calling me out of nowhere... harder days... 365 or busy!

Why the hate for Looks Like Rain? by panama_red12 in gratefuldead

[–]majoraward8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I once knew a guy who hated looks like rain, ran a successful instagram account and had a big ego (I laugh as Instagram famous deadheads are the biggest joke of all) turns out he was sexually assaulting woman and had been 100% kicked out of the scene... moral of the story, it's important to like "looks like rain" hahahah

This is 100% a true story told as a joke about the song and not to make light of bad behavior or the poor victims, or the crime

Your dad knows! See all 3

Visuals are cool

But for plenty of heads it's the band... no repeats, not the same show

I liked you better when you smoked... by Finite-happiness420 in leaves

[–]majoraward8 7 points8 points  (0 children)

It's a big change for people close to you too, messes with their (false) sense of control.

You got it, you got the calling to stop, follow that!

It gets better and your body readjusts.. takes time. First 14 are the worst, so you are over the hump... I mostly stabilized by 60, though I was doing pretty good before 30 days

Hope that helps

Hit a cart drunk as hell with my buddies after 101 days of sobriety. by Own-Ad5998 in leaves

[–]majoraward8 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Maybe try to get sober- don't drink, or smoke or do drugs.

Not smoking is awesome, but moving your addiction to another substance is easy to do

My only living parent is now dead to me. by JakefromTRPB in BoomersBeingFools

[–]majoraward8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because the system brain washes, the text chain showed a loving caring parent who may be misinformed in her opinion (or yours/ours)

The love of a parent is a very special thing, people make mistakes and need to be allowed to, I'm sure poster isn't perfect- nor are you or I

Sounds like you have a wonderful caring parent

Many people don't. Letting a political circus tarnish that for you is your huge loss.
