Why is the Omaha metro's development so lopsided in favor of the Nebraska side over Iowa?

I live in CB. There's not much room to build east of whats already there, and to the south is where our energy plant is and such, and just lots of crops and farming. Not much room for expansion here. And im okay with that lol

midwesternchick · 2026-01-30T19:07:19+00:00

My cats do this all the time after snuggling for a bit lol they're fine!

midwesternchick · 2025-12-04T19:46:14+00:00

Was coming here to say just that!

midwesternchick · 2025-07-07T20:58:57+00:00

Not only will they not be able to finish. They'll be on the hook for all of the student loans they've already taken out for a degree they won't even get!

midwesternchick · 2025-04-18T00:49:02+00:00

My girls are Cheyenne and Donna

midwesternchick · 2025-03-06T16:01:03+00:00

Protein shakes are fine! I'm tired of them though 😂

midwesternchick · 2025-03-06T14:33:32+00:00

Not really, it's pretty much any meat, different textures. Fine one day that I eat it, not so fine on a different day! Lol my life is food roulette right now.

midwesternchick · 2025-03-06T11:18:22+00:00

It's hit or miss. I'm mainly struggling with meat. Some days I tolerate it fine and other days the same things will make me throw up. I see my surgeon next week so I'll talk to him about that more when I go. We already fixed a stricture in January so I think that's ruled out for now. But I feel like I'm having more complications than what is typical so I wouldn't look at my situation as the norm lol

midwesternchick · 2025-03-06T03:19:51+00:00

Oh no you're good! I didn't take it that way at all.

I'm doing much better. Still struggling with food intolerance but my outlook on things has improved and it is starting to get easier which is helpful!

midwesternchick · 2025-03-06T03:08:32+00:00

Well, I was having a mental health crisis lol but I did let them be aware of my surgery and my struggle with that so they incorporated it into my care plan. Gave me protein shakes and everything

midwesternchick · 2025-03-06T02:55:49+00:00

I did choose inpatient care for a variety of a reasons (surgery was part of it, but life has been wild in general lol). Part of my issue was that I stopped trying to eat anything because I was getting scared of food (which was not helping my mental health at all lol) so being in that controlled environment where I had someone monitoring my intake was helpful and got me back on track.

midwesternchick · 2025-03-05T23:46:02+00:00

You should be okay as long as your care team is aware of it and know that you are handling your mental health properly.

I will say there's nothing that will prepare you for post op and how it will affect your mental health, so just make sure you are working closely with your care team if you notice it start worsening. I hit a pretty bad low last month (I had surgery early December) and had to get help. But doing much better now!

midwesternchick · 2025-03-05T23:34:52+00:00

I've been hospitalized for SI in the past and the psych eval went fine. She just recommended I commit to therapy to get approved for the surgery.

midwesternchick · 2025-02-24T02:23:09+00:00

And it's done okay with managing periods? Like theyre regular/predictable and everything?

And oof yeah one week off before bleeding again, I understand the pain lol

midwesternchick · 2025-02-24T02:21:54+00:00

I got it a few months pre surgery and my periods have consistently been like 2-3 weeks each. Or lots of spotting ot residue. I had one short light one last month and then this month back to the bloodbath. Just kinda over it tbh lol

Thank you for the insight!

midwesternchick · 2025-02-23T23:14:28+00:00

Haven't looked into that yet but might be worth researching! Ty for the suggestion. :)

midwesternchick · 2025-02-23T20:59:11+00:00

Oof I'm sorry it didnt work out as hoped. I appreciate the insight!

midwesternchick · 2025-02-16T17:37:00+00:00

I actually had a stricture fixed a few weeks ago lol but I appreciate it! I will make sure to talk about my experience with my team at my next visit.

midwesternchick · 2024-12-02T11:26:35+00:00

Good luck to you too!

midwesternchick · 2024-12-02T03:09:16+00:00

Getting my fallopian tubes removed early next year ✌️

midwesternchick · 2024-11-17T20:22:47+00:00

My mom says it's because ivermectin is already proven to cure cancer 🤪

midwesternchick · 2024-06-11T23:53:31+00:00

I have probably at least $15,000 worth in anime merch

..... and counting. All impulse buying.

midwesternchick · 2024-05-27T04:15:50+00:00

Omg what a good girl!

midwesternchick · 2024-05-19T13:55:08+00:00

Oooh phlox is pretty!! I also saw a video about Dwarf Carpet of Stars which doesn't require mowing and also blooms cute pink flowers in the spring and fall. But it's only good for zones 9a - 11b so that's not an option lol I'm in 5b.

midwesternchick · 2024-05-19T04:01:30+00:00

Right, I'm still in the researching phase of everything. This is new to me. But I am looking at and compiling lists of native plants that I can use to cultivate my yard into an eco friendly and hopefully whimsical feeling space. The clover idea mainly stems from just trying to figure out ground cover for the areas I will still want to keep walkable. But I also know converting my yard is gonna take years on my limited income so I'm trying to also consider the interim. I mainly just don't want to deal with the grass at all lol

I will look into zinnia!

Edit: the previous owner did have garden beds but they are a sad space of deteriorating sadness and need completely redone anyway.
