Not every state. This is Texas. I’m in California and my kid went to school with shoulder length hair that was half blue. My relatives in Texas kept asking what the school was doing about it. There’s nothing on the books about hair and the principal said it looked cool. Hair has always been a control issue in bible thumping communities, which I thankfully am no longer around.

From my experience:

Gently let your husband know that if his mom says something negative that he should not pass it along to you. What his mom said did not hurt you until he told you. That’s how I taught my kid not to spread gossip.

As for your mother in law, if she comments that something is messy, hand her a broom. That’s how I got my certified-clean-freak mom to stop making comments. “Vacuum’s in the closet” was another one, but she was my mom, not my MIL, so it wasn’t as hard for me. Sooo…have your husband do it. :)

Also non-cartel coyotes rest during the day. I lived in Nevada where coyotes are a given, but never in my life saw one during the day.

Holy shit. I had to turn it off. WTF.

It’s quartz…maybe. The crystal foramtion is what’s throwing me. My sample is banged up, but still the crystals appear to be 5-sided, not 6.

What is saphira? I couldn’t find anything onine. I found corundum, fo sapphire, but the mohs scale is too high for my sample, a 9. My sample is closer to a 7. Also corundum streaks colorless and my sample streaks white.

Clinozoisite is a similar mohs, but streaks greyish-white.

So I’m thinking quartz.

My kid is learning to drive and I wanted to rent/get ahold of a manual to teach that too, but nothing doing. You can’t find one to rent and I’m not buying a whole car for a few weeks’ training.

I’ll test it today and get back to you.

wow, pretty

I had no idea it did this. My apologies.

That was very thoughtful. Thank you.

Say where it is out loud! That’s my stove trick–“THE STOVE IS OFF”. Yes, I have walked away from a lit burner before.

Gold. You have found gold.

SoCal food coaches are amazing. I’m in San Diego. We have entire events based around them.

All the ADHDers in here. :(

Same. Same.
