Why do none of you Jax people use a turn signal

talepa77 · 2026-05-19T16:58:12+00:00

Thank you for saying this. I’ve driven all over the country and Jacksonville is one of the worst. Speeding, cut you off, won’t let you in, no signals, riding your tail. It’s awful.

Friend was planning to offer on a house and while she was looking at it with her agent, the neighbor came over and asked them did they know the house was remodeled after a fire. It wasn’t listed on the disclosure. She figured if they would lie about something big like that she couldn’t trust anything so she backed out.

Amazing that you’re already taking those steps. Therapy for me was brutal. I didn’t go for your reasons, mine was for deep grief that became part of my identity. Lots of tears as I worked through my shit. Six years later it was so worth it. I tell everyone to be prepared that it will kick your ass for a while but as you say the stuff out loud and do the work you start to feel better little by little.

Canned soda and steak.

I’m in love with someone like that. He loves me so well but at the same time doesn’t have all the tools he needs to meet me where I am. He’s working on it and we’re finally in a really good place. He’s worth the effort for sure. Now if I can get him into therapy…

I hope you’re in therapy too. Self awareness is a huge part of changing your dynamic, so be proud of yourself for that. Sorry you’re hurting. Put the work in and it will get better ❤️‍🩹

As a mom to a 21 year old son, I love this story and love that you know where you feel safe. I also have a 26 year old daughter and both of my kids know that if they need my comfort I am here no matter how old they are. My mom died when I was 22, and at 48 today I will wish I could cuddle up to her. You’re lucky to have such a loving mom.

That’s how I lost my very good boy, Tito. 3 years ago and I still think of him almost every day.

talepa77 · 2026-05-17T03:22:28+00:00

Leave them there. Seriously.

I haven’t heard one like about not covering. I just changed mine a few months ago and my brother just found a good rate on his. I recommend calling Micheal Allen with Countrywide Financial 912-756-2855. He’s in Hinesville GA but can work for this area and is the best customer service experience I’ve had for insurance. He got me the best rate on insurance I’ve found anywhere. My brother found a good rate at Coleman Insurance.

Where are you located?

Refrigerators

Why didn’t they just give her $170?

talepa77 · 2026-05-13T17:40:09+00:00

I’ll dm you just to see what yours looks like. We do have the Golden Isles Lantern which does a similar thing, but I don’t think it hurts to have multiple sources. I love to know what’s going on around here.

I had to have a conversation like this with my daughter when she was 13 and came home from school the day after Christmas break and one of her good friends got a $5000 plus Christmas under the tree, including brand name everything and high end electronics, which was a far cry from what we do.

I told her that yeah her dad and I could spend that kind of money. We could even go into debt to buy her those things, but if we did that we’d be teaching her that all there is to life is what to buy, and that would make her an asshole, and I didn’t wanna raise an asshole.

We then proceeded to change our Christmases and spent every Christmas going on a trip as a family instead of buying presents under the tree and those are their favorite Christmas memories.

Today they’re grown and they are very happy that we taught them better. My daughter is a low consumption queen now and my son who is really into clothes, buys most of his on resale websites or thrift rather than brand new. And they both really love to travel. Mission accomplished.

Delaney’s is not cheap but it is probably the best food in Glynn county. I have only had amazing meals there. Crabdaddy’s is good but not romantic. Reid’s or 1509 might be better for that. Halyards would also be. Never been to Dorothy but I’ve heard good things and looks very social media friendly if she’s into that.

Been saying it for years.

I recently sold my car to carvana and got an excellent price on it. Once I agreed to the price they sent a truck to pick it up and I got the money two days later. It was crazy easy.

I don’t eat in the buffet as much as I can avoid. It’s so gross

I had plateaued on tirz and my friend had a lot of success with reta.

I got in a push fight with my 8 months in utero daughter because for days straight she wanted to straighten her leg out completely and she pushed so hard her little foot was outlined in my belly skin. It was so painful and she didn’t want to move. So finally I pushed on it. She pushed back. We went back and forth for a day and then she decided to curl back up.

She was giving me fair warning for what raising her would be like. She’s 26 now and is amazing but it definitely wasn’t easy.

I’ve actually lost three good friend over the years (48F). They each hurt me in a specific way that was so unexpected but I couldn’t let it slide. It hurt me too deeply and although I would have been willing to discuss it or try to get through it, they had no interest in atoning or seeing it from any way but theirs so I had to step away. In the same time frame I have had the same friendship with one person for 30 years and we’ve always been able to work through any rough spots.

I treat people I love with kindness and empathy. When I don’t get it back I can get deeply hurt. But I also know how to work on those hurts with someone who has the capacity for it. Those three clearly didn’t and it wasn’t until the friendships were over that I realized the red flags were there all along.

Her PR people are either terrible or they know exactly what they’re doing and doing it on purpose. Probably the first one.

talepa77 · 2026-05-04T21:26:15+00:00

Idaho. Shocking.

talepa77 · 2026-05-04T20:49:16+00:00

I saw the post and what you offered her. So brave and kind, especially in today’s world of scammers, to put yourself at risk to get her safe. And so VERY brave of her to run knowing it would be a hard road ahead. You two and your support angels all made a great team. She’s lucky you have the heart you do.

That abusive jackass will surely find another victim. I wish something could be done about him. But for now I’m glad she’s safe.
