It’s a time warp that’s easy to get lost in:

Have you seen the UVM Landscape Change project? It’s a great database of vintage photos sortable by town and other keywords, often juxtaposed with current photos. This could be a good resource if you don’t know it.

Are they mutually exclusive? I lost several friends due to underage drinking and driving- decades ago. It can be incredibly impactful to a community to lose kids. The VSP probably saved a teen life or lives that night and they don’t deserve shade on this.

It actually doesn’t happen as much as it used to. Parents are held liable if something goes sideways.

I’m sorry this happened OP. I had a similar situation happen in the Valentine’s Day storm of 2007. Our plow guy quit and we were stuck with a 1500’ driveway under 45.”. I had a toddler and a very pregnant wife at the time. This happened to me 16 years ago and the trauma is very much with me today. We all have our ways of getting through winter. My take away is to not rely upon others to get out anymore. I’m the only one that I can really count on when the chips are down.

Let me simplify this for you: Does he get an erection because of your presence? If the answer is yes, he’s attracted to you. Just leave at that my dear. You’re trying to make drama where there doesn’t need to be any…

Can’t men be complicated too? Sexy is sexy and men shouldn’t have to be confined to one type. He likes you. Just be glad you’re one of the types that make him happy.

Clear your mind that “she could do better.” F- that. Money doesn’t make one better. You be you, if she’s ruling that out, perhaps you’re better off alone. Don’t allow her steal your mojo, brother.

Ouch. Sorry about the tree. What part of VT are you in? I’ve gotta tree guy if you’re in my area… I think the winds are going to be most intense during the daytime hours on Friday. If it’s really bad, just get a hotel or a friends couch. Who doesn’t need a little extra company for the holidays?

Congrats! Your post has risen to the level where they’re trying to censor you… so you’re doing something right. Hang in there and be brave.

El Oriental De Cuba, JPs finest!

Woodstock, Weston, and Manchester would make a good circuit.

Jolly. For sure.
