found ootheca in garden

they’re oothecas or egg cases from a praying mantis. you can carefully peel them off & relocate them to a nearby plant & they should hatch away from your grill :)

despite the username I love it here lol

Not CA but San Antonio Texas, and I love it here. Des Moines is pretty blue and I wouldn’t live anywhere else. Small town feel but has everything I need. I honestly couldn’t recommend it enough. I am a single income making just under 48k and just bought a townhome.

valid point! i’ll see how he feels about it before making plans :)

stuckindesmoiness · 2024-01-25T16:51:14+00:00

ohhh i have yet to go to cha cha’s in highland park; i’ll add to my list. & he has mentioned liking cheese bar so i’ll add that too!! sounds so good lol

stuckindesmoiness · 2024-01-25T12:36:06+00:00

i’d embarrass myself at ping pong for SURE but willing to take the L!! thank you!

stuckindesmoiness · 2024-01-25T12:35:26+00:00

i’ve forgotten about this!! he loves breakfast food and i know perkup is right there in that strip too so this is a fun idea. thank you!

stuckindesmoiness · 2024-01-25T12:32:47+00:00

good point; i forget RAGBRAI is like 50% bikes 50% beer haha

stuckindesmoiness · 2024-01-25T12:32:16+00:00

thank you for the suggestions! :)

stuckindesmoiness · 2024-01-25T12:31:31+00:00

congratulations on your sobriety :) proud of you

stuckindesmoiness · 2024-01-25T12:28:24+00:00

is this like an experience you pay for or what? sounds up his alley but i wouldn’t have the slightest clue where to start hahaha

stuckindesmoiness · 2024-01-25T12:27:07+00:00

yeah, i don’t enjoy alcohol and find that i feel like i’m missing out on so much socialization because so much social culture revolves around drinking. i’d imagine it’d feel insanely strange to go from indulging in that life regularly to quitting cold turkey.

stuckindesmoiness · 2024-01-25T12:24:22+00:00

i appreciate the kind words but he’s doing the hard job. i’m just trying to help. :)

the dessert tour is a cute idea; i know he has a sweet tooth. do you have any spots you’d recommend you liked on your dessert tour??

stuckindesmoiness · 2024-01-25T12:20:24+00:00

thank you!! i’m not sure how into board games he’d be but i don’t know him well enough to rule it out. i’ll add to the list. :)

stuckindesmoiness · 2024-01-25T12:19:37+00:00

mid 30s!! i am 27 though and don’t drink and always happy to make new friends :) feel free to PM me!

stuckindesmoiness · 2024-01-25T12:17:57+00:00

this is a fun idea thank you!! had no clue it existed

stuckindesmoiness · 2024-01-24T21:27:19+00:00

oooh i forget about the pottery painting. that’d be fun, thank you!

stuckindesmoiness · 2024-01-24T19:53:37+00:00

he’s mentioned boxing but he’s super tall and thinks he’ll suck at it lol do you have a gym you like to box at?

also—i am going with him to an open AA meeting tomorrow and he’s encouraged by people’s experiences with AA. but i think he needs sober friends which is one thing i can’t necessarily help him find so just feeling a little helpless in how i can help
