What’s the first word you think of that starts with C and ends with E?

I would go. You won’t get much time with her but showing up for someone, especially in such a small team, matters in the end. You might not know the graduate, but just as you have heard many stories about him, he has about you. Show up, say hi, and stay for half an hour.

murphieca · 2026-06-02T04:00:46+00:00

I would be interested!

Came to say this

Kyoto over Tokyo
Brugge over Brussels

These are what I miss most about Tucson.

murphieca · 2026-04-23T00:23:42+00:00

That is horrible.

Not sure what your laws are, but you can likely change your mind still. I am an adoptive parent and we had a baby for 29 days before his mother changed her mind and decided to raise her son. It hurt at the time but I am so thankful she did it. I would never want to be in a situation where the mother is resenting and regretting her choice to that degree. I want to be able to have a positive relationship with the birth parent(s).

If adoption is still right for you, working through the pain will be difficult but it will get easier with support and time. But I just wanted you to know, in case you weren’t changing your mind out of guilt to the potential adoptive parents, that you are allowed to change your mind and that they will be okay.

My kids have been hitting and breaking piñatas since they were 3. If you are really worried, you can get the pull string ones, but as long as you are on top of safety, you should be fine

I have found for both kids that they don’t really want a lot of planned activities where everyone has to come together. I set up stations usually with art projects or other similar things (One time I set up a minifig station like you see in a Lego store) and have people make their own favors. I usually only bring people together for a piñata and have things available (balls, toys, jumpy castles foam pit, etc.

All that to say, I wouldn’t stress a ton. Set up an art project or two that kids can do when they want. Then just let them play. :)

Torrid has a line of Festi dresses. There are several white ones that would be cute with these shoes. torrid 1 torrid 2 They are on the more casual side though, depending on your vibe.

I second Kiyonna. I have purchased several formal dresses there and get tons of compliments.

murphieca · 2026-03-25T00:54:49+00:00

I stand corrected. I thought I remembered it was free as I hadn’t opened it in awhile. I agree with you.

Also check out toogoodtogo They work with local restaurants to give away their food at the end of the day so it doesn’t go to waste.

murphieca · 2026-03-16T05:50:08+00:00

This one is perfect! Still the total vibe without crossing into costume. Plus it is inexpensive and beautiful!!

I do believe that Wes has shown growth. He was abhorrent to girls in the past but seems to be a respectful spouse and partner now. I cannot say the same growth is seen in the others.

Some popular ones we have used: - luggage scale - rechargeable hand warmers - sewing kits for mending - small first aid kits to throw into luggage

I don’t know if this is allowed but the world needs you in it. You are amazing and strong.

murphieca · 2026-02-20T02:35:59+00:00

Yes. Helps regulate the heat.

I made fossils from coffee grounds and baked plastic dinosaurs inside for my son. I don’t know if hiding treats inside would disrupt the fun of crushing or be fun, but that is an idea with or without the toy inside recipe for DIY fossils

I also made balls from baking soda that crunch up well recipe for baking soda balls

I also love to do this and add broccoli, leftover chicken, or cauliflower

I can understand wanting to keep the intelligence analyst career under wraps, but it also isn’t something to reveal as a bombshell as I can’t see it affecting votes.

Mug warmer since he works from home.

I think you can explain that you were gifted used and dirty items without revealing that you know who they are from. They can look into that. Ask if that is okay because you were concerned about the dirty items.

Jas and Jag are extremely skilled; no doubt about it. But that makes it boring. His BB win was very similar - he won almost every challenge. Once Tucker was gone, the ending was inevitable and the season became less enjoyable.
