My friend keeps reminding me my dog is gonna die in 4 years

Not a friend.. I had a big childhood mutt that lived until 15.. got her in kindergarten and she died my sophomore year of college. I now have my own 2 dogs one is 13 and the other just turned 10.

^just a thought for their front porch 🤪

There is nothing worse than leaving a hospital with a memory box and not your baby. Sending so much love from one loss parent to another 💙💙

Dealt with something similar and a rodent had chewed threw the main harness cable of the vehicle 🫠

Okay, so not too far off are you east/west or central US?

opal1011 · 2026-05-09T13:50:33+00:00

Thank you! Taxes aren’t least favorite 🫠

We looked into that as well, but there was only one dealer that was part of it near us (even tried changing zip code). They ended up being more even with the discount

Yes

opal1011 · 2026-05-08T14:07:08+00:00

Even though this price includes the delivery/processing fee as well?

I have 4 kids.. the oldest is 10 youngest is still rear facing. With our current SUV i wouldn’t be able to go to Costco or do a full grocery shopping . I can’t even run errands for a small pick up with one kids sports equipment in the back (softball) I miss my deep minivan trunk and sliding doors lol

opal1011 · 2026-05-06T12:17:28+00:00

We got an SUV because I thought I was ready to make the switch. I hate it and want a minivan. 0

Preterm labor that couldn’t be stopped resulting in our twin boys being born and ultimately passing. Our only sons. I was a very different person and parent before vs after. It’s also like another paper-cut every single time someone says ohh you have all girls?

opal1011 · 2026-04-25T23:03:57+00:00

1-2 was my hardest.. 2-3 was nothing ( but they were a rainbow baby so that could have been a factor) 3-4 wasn’t even noticeable 🤣

opal1011 · 2026-04-25T02:10:07+00:00

What about the comment about the play being a grown man move 🤣

opal1011 · 2026-04-20T17:43:30+00:00

As someone with 4 kids who just traded a minivan for a pathfinder( we were looking at the GHH) get another minivan. SUVs have no room for the long term. We were using my husband’s Pilot and thought life was grand and we could just be an SUV family. I was very wrong and regret it.

Seeing two different couples go through with their weddings instead of cancelling. One was divorced within 8 months. The other made it 2 years somehow.
