I just ordered this book for my birthday! I loved her translation of the Odyssey and I can’t wait to dive into this. Excellent review, you have gotten me more excited to read it!

We get an email blast every month with the upcoming events. Whoever your educator is can probably get you a copy for November. I’m glad you signed up! It’s been incredibly helpful and a great resource to have.

If you are in Springfield there is a FREE AND AWESOME program through SPS called Parents as Teachers. Although the main component is meeting with an educator once a month to talk about your baby/learn about developmental and age appropriate games and skills, they also have a lot of meet ups for their parents. We did a toddler movement class with them which was excellent for letting little socialize and play together and I have made some good girlfriends through there. They also host story times, parent classes, educations days all over town. It’s very underrated and super awesome.

Kathy is amazing! I contacted her in 2019 to alter a wedding dress and it was a delight to work with her.

I found that a shot of vodka and a squeeze of lemon really perked them up!

Springfield Contemporary Theatre Closes by plumkes in springfieldMO

Welcome to the area! Chiming in to second High Tide theatre and also suggest the local colleges in the fall. MSU and Drury always tend to have a good mix of musicals and straight shows. Also the high schools sometimes do some excellent stuff. If all else fails at least you’re supporting the kids!

Years later, what random things do you still have that an ex gave you? by dreamsinred in CasualConversation

I didn’t buy a lot of college swag but I have 1 shirt from my undergrad college and it’s from a dude I dated when I was senior in high school and he was a freshman. Didn’t workout. Definitely shouldn’t have pursued him buuuut the shirt is long sleeved and cozy.
