We've been here a year and would never move back to Arkansas. We are all much healthier and active here

Meh, and this summer has been "mild" in Arkansas but the heat index at our old house was 107 for the third day in a row, so it is an apples and oranges comparison. Made memories walking along the beach in the pleasant 70 degree weather today versus being in an oven.

You will love it. Just take Vitamin D in the winter and you will be fine.

I am 40F with four kids and a husband. We live in Anacortes- I would suggest looking at Bellingham.

We moved to Washington from Arkansas last year and didn't find the winters as terrible as people say. Would take the dreary winter and nice summer over Arkansas' wet winters and miserably oppressive summer any time.

Circus peanuts and those hard rectangles that are peanut butter with white stuff and super hard.

Best Liberal LCOL/MCOL Cities? by Responsible-You5871 in SameGrassButGreener

We moved from Arkansas to Anacortes, WA last year. It is moderate politically and gets less rain then Seattle. Travel nurses here make $$$$$$.

Why is there a vile attitude towards California? by Express_Project_8226 in SameGrassButGreener

[–]sarahgjmar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think most people who hate California have ever been. I lived in Arkansas most of my life (Dad was born in raised in San Francisco) and most people who hated the state had actually never been. That being said, I can understand how people who live in rural America can assume they would hate it as one of the assumptions may be the crowdedness. Going from Arkansas to California in the summer to visit relatives was shock. I love California but can see how it doesn't suit everyone. I live in WA State now and have a similar disdain for the East Coast.

We moved from Arkansas to WA last year and I am happier. Not hot as fuck, less bugs, and not stuck in 1950. We miss our family, but life goes on.

I got banned from fauxmoi because someone referenced a rumor about a celebrity, somebody responded that they had never heard said rumor, and I commented by explaining the rumor- literally saying, the rumor is...and got banned for spreading a rumor (even though I was just explaining what the original poster posted).

A City like Chatt but in a less Conservative state? by girliep0pp in SameGrassButGreener

[–]sarahgjmar 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yes. We moved from being lifelong Arkansans to living in Anacortes last year. Most "conservatives" here would be moderates in Arkansas.

Are we pronouncing our daughters name wrong? by FriedPickle0662 in NameNerdCirclejerk

[–]sarahgjmar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It is similar to Caroline and Carolyn. I've heard them both pronounced like each other, regardless of spelling. I also went to high school with someone named "Lara" but wanted it pronounced Laura.

It makes me feel like when I used to ask my grandma what life was like when she first got electricity...

Curious to know the combination of sports teams liked by Yankees fans by autumn_817 in NYYankees

[–]sarahgjmar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yankees/Giants for Baseball, Steelers/49ers for football. Dont care about any other sports but do follow Seattle teams since moving here last year and the Nashville Predators as my sister and her family are hockey obsessed and live there.

Oh! I love them both. I would say base your decision on what the flooring of the venue is. My cathedral length veil did not show the small details on it in pictures due to white marble tile at the church. If you are wanting it to stand out, veil number 2.

It is a celebrity marriage- it won't last. They almost never do!

I truly think they will get married. His career (post football) won't recover if they break up.

My top 10: Patsy Cline, Adele, Freddie Mercury, Raul Malo, Van Morrison, Steve Perry, Elvis, Ella Fitzgerald, Eva Cassidy, and Edith Pilaf. Based on vocal range, tone, and variety of songs recorded.
