The big diff between an HOA that negotiates trash service vs one that does not is that entire community has its trash out once or twice a week. Now in this community where everyone has their own trash service, it feels like at any given day 1/3rd of residents have their trash/recycle out.

My backyard has 6 trees and the amount of fall already has triggered my BP lol. There is no fucking way I am going to be trying to rake that many leaves.

Our next door immediate neighbor are weirdly odd older white couple. Before we moved in, both the husband & wife would incessantly chat with me about the previous owners of the house, the community, what they did etc. They went to great lengths to tell us to ping them for anything – be it tools, things to do, places to eat yada yada. Like in spite of telling them we barely moved 3 miles from our previous place, they were super friendly about how much they love to help. They have 4 dogs, and train dogs for PTSD veterans and the lady remarked that she would love to house/train our dog too (which would be a blessing honestly!) and we were so excited.

And now its been 2 weeks since we moved, we’ve barely talked. Everytime I say hi to either husband or wife, they wave back…. and thats it. My doggo wants to befriend their doggos, and she actively pulls them away everytime my doggo goes to fence to say hi to their dogs. They’ve been keeping a super keen eye on whats happening in our house – “oh you got your backyard cleaned up of shrubs!”, “oh you got some skylights installed”, “oh i saw a plumber come by” and such random 1-2 sentences.

I will truly never understand white people. And did I mention another of our neighbors welcomed us with a box of tomatoes and some basil?

Didnt sleep most of last night. Took a nap in afternoon. Woke up with shivers. The kid is already up on her feet and running around, while the adults are going to take their own sweet time fighting off this nasty.

Multiple covid tests negative so far but frankly the covid symptoms in Jan were milder. Feels like my nose has been jammed right now uggh

If Pakistan pull this off, which they may anyway, big props to all their bowlers bowling through cramps and such struggles. If they were 100% india would be in more trouble.

Oh so suddenly Biden is very smart and not in cognitive decline and he planned all of his major policy wins around mid terms. But that’s the 4d chess moves I was hoping from trumpkin for 4 years and all I got was a rotten pumpkin
