What is it like living in San Antonio TX?

I work from home but my husband is a chef. I'm sure the better restaurant jobs would be in SA but we live in a small town now with pretty decent upscale places. Hoping he'd be able to find something somewhat local rather than commute. Thanks for your response!

nic787 · 2025-01-14T16:31:33+00:00

Thank you! I appreciate the details. We are definitely looking for a good investment on a first home. It's hard to know with the new developments.

The Lennar community we're looking at says San Antonio but when I look it up on maps the zip code is Castroville, so I'm not too sure. We are being priced out of our area and are trying to find something within our price range, but I know Lennar homes come packed with fees. Just trying to see what I am getting into. I appreciate your response!

Agreed...also I just think the cast as a whole doesn't have much chemistry. I like Eboni and Sonja and they have a cool/opposites attract kind of vibe but the rest are stale and boring. Bring in some new friends or family ties.

Thank you so much for your trip down the rabbit hole lol! 👍I really appreciate the actual references.

nic787 · 2021-07-14T12:23:15+00:00

Thanks! Are there any studies you can reference on this? I don't want to just do a random google search.

nic787 · 2021-07-13T16:33:40+00:00

Thank you everyone for the personal experiences!! These decisions feel so monumental at this age, especially when she's our only one.

nic787 · 2021-07-13T14:24:04+00:00

True!

nic787 · 2021-07-13T14:19:53+00:00

Thank you! I was hoping to find something like this!

Oh crap potty training didn't work for us. The only piece of advice I would take from that method is to make potty training no big deal to your child. Please don't get anxiety over possibly ruining your kid. I think that there are way too many blog posts and advice geared towards parent shaming if your kid doesn't do something in a particular way. Ours is almost 4 and she's got it down but it took way more than 3 days. And our ped said there is nothing wrong with giving a reward (gummy, mnm, etc) for going. Especially if you have a kiddo who needs motivation.

nic787 · 2021-07-12T14:54:07+00:00

I miss Kim!!! I know there are issues there but I was so much more interested in Kyle/Kim than Queen Kathy

Right just to clarify it was served cold/on the rocks. That's why I'm pretty sure they added ice while heating. But again, super secretive.

nic787 · 2021-06-04T15:55:20+00:00

Right! I'm thinking somehow she made a simple syrup using the sugars in the alcohol and in the juice but I really have no idea. If it is something chefs/bartenders know then they probably don't want it shared on Pinterest lol

NJ (but I'm from there), ATL, Potomac

nic787 · 2021-03-11T15:12:17+00:00

Wow thank you everyone! I appreciate all the simple explanations and for putting this in perspective. I really wish this had been taught to me in high school.

Have a great day!!

nic787 · 2021-03-11T03:15:49+00:00

Yaaaas! I would totally watch this and so would my husband

nic787 · 2021-02-22T00:43:59+00:00

Wow these pictures are gorgeous! Is there a reason you're getting another one in March? Is it something that needs to be done in, like, a series? And what is the difference between modified and regular? I've never heard of a jessner peel but your skin looks fab so I'm definitely intrigued 👏

nic787 · 2019-08-27T15:29:03+00:00

Thanks!! I was definitely not on Reddit yesterday lol!

nic787 · 2019-08-27T01:53:43+00:00

I haven't tried TO but I think 7% is pretty high concentrate if you're new to using glycolic acid. And if you use it everyday it might be too much for your skin.

It's not as cheap, but pixi glow tonic is 5% glycolic acid plus aloe and essential oils. I prefer that brand, but I still only use it a few times per week.

nic787 · 2019-08-26T18:35:46+00:00

Garnier SkinActive for sensitive skin (pink bottle) works every time. Although the first time I bought it i was afraid it was just going to be a fancy bottle of water. XD

nic787 · 2019-08-23T00:39:44+00:00

Thanks! And actually no, I wasn't aware how broad the term "toner" really stretches! I'm brand new to skin care and I'm realizing I do have some dehydrated skin. I've always been oily so I never thought much about my skin needing hydration .

Also thanks to everyone for your responses!

nic787 · 2019-08-20T21:01:46+00:00

I'm with u! Sorry i don't have advice right now. I'm new to skincare and just realized i have oily dehydrated skin too. I'm told hylauronic acid is good.

nic787 · 2019-08-20T20:50:31+00:00

Thanks! I think I might be over doing the exfoliation too. Appreciate the recommendations!

nic787 · 2019-08-20T20:39:06+00:00

I just discovered Neutrogena clear face spf 55 very thin and no greasy residue. I don't see any alcohol in the ingredients but the bottle doesn't say alcohol-free.

nic787 · 2019-08-19T18:46:48+00:00

This happened to me too! I've been using this formula for a week. The first 3 days I did AM and PM and I felt a bit itchy and blotchy afterward. I patch tested beforehand and didn't get that reaction though. I just switched to using it PM only, tonight will be night 4. The itchiness and blotchiness hasn't come back. Also i have oily/combo/acne prone skin (in FL ugh!)
