So this week I had an "idea"...
I wanted to do something with the Pepper Plants. I figured it would be a good change - and I liked the way they looked!

This is the photo I started with of the Pepper Plants,

At this point I am working on getting a better look out of the eyes,

Here I finished the Eyes, and added some Red,

It was such a beautiful day today @lesmann ๐Ÿ˜
So much to discover and see, Paris is growing on me. Discovered more of the beaten tracks today. And went to a touristy are to see the Sacre Coeur. Beautifulโ€ฆ but just tooooo touristy. So we went quickly off the beaten track again hehehe ๐Ÿคญ away from the masses. Lol
Had some columbian food this evening. Everybody in the restaurant was speaking Spanish. So a well come break from trying to communicate French hahaha ๐Ÿคฃ funny but coolโ€ฆ
Thank you so much ๐Ÿ˜Š
Hope your Sunday is awesome too!

Thank you so much @lesmann ๐Ÿ˜Ž๐Ÿ˜Š
Yes, thatโ€™s rightโ€ฆ hahaha lol ๐Ÿ˜‚ I need to go outside do Spain to talk Spanish. Crazy when you think about it. Funny also.
The French are so much better in that regards. The integration of none French people is just great.
It blends perfectly and is accepted. You see it also in food here.

Yes, Paris is just great. As long as you stay away from the touristy areas. Go off the beaten path.
The backstreets where the locals live and play. ๐Ÿ˜‰๐Ÿค“๐Ÿ˜Ž

Sure enjoying the French cappuccinos ๐Ÿ˜โ˜•๏ธโ˜•๏ธโ˜•๏ธโ˜•๏ธ

Yes it is funny, a sign of human nature..๐Ÿค”๐Ÿค“
And I could imagine that the French would be better at integration then the Spanish...
You can see it here as well..๐Ÿ‘€
And Yes, if I was there I would also like more to see the culture of the normal French person instead of "Western - French Style"... I am sure You know what I mean..๐Ÿ˜‰

Glad You are enjoying the French Cappuccino's, they might be a touch better than in Spain as Well!๐Ÿ˜Ž๐Ÿ˜‰๐Ÿ˜

Good evening to you @lesmann ๐Ÿ‘‹๐Ÿป๐Ÿ˜
We are back home, arrived all safely and sound. โœˆ๏ธ It was a late flight and than it got delayed tooโ€ฆ so we didnโ€™t arrive home before 1am the next โ€œmorningโ€ hehehe ๐Ÿคญ tiring to say the least. But the drive back was better during the night as less traffic and tourists that donโ€™t know were to go hahaha ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿคฃ

Yes, it was great to observe. Everywhere we went. You could see it and feel it in the energy of people.

Yep I know exactly what you mean. And that is why we only did 3 touristy locations. The Eiffel Tower, champs Elysees and the Sacre Coeur. Every where else we went far far far away from the tourists. Days we didnโ€™t see any. So we were not surrounded by their โ€œmade up worldโ€ to please the tourists.
We saw the true โ€œParisโ€
To bad it is over alreadyโ€ฆ our days there. As the city grew on me.
Even the locals, they were so friendly. Not touristy friendlyโ€ฆ like they wanted something.
Nopeโ€ฆ sitting on a terrace and a local starts talking to you. Really interested about our visit there off the beaten track. We talked for 2 hours hahaha ๐Ÿคฃ about everythingโ€ฆ making the world right hehehe ๐Ÿคญ
Than, while sitting somewhere, locals walking by and really greeting you. Than saying have a wonderful day etc.
can you imagine we were hesitant in the beginning. As we are not used to that anymore. People being polite, friendly and sincere. We thought first they want something. But they didnโ€™tโ€ฆ just a friendly warm greet on their way pass. ๐Ÿ˜ƒ๐Ÿ˜Ž๐Ÿ‘‹๐Ÿปโ˜€๏ธ
It amazed us so muchโ€ฆ we are so not used to that in Spain or the UK or the Netherlands.

It made our stay rather special. As it happened daily. ๐Ÿคฉ๐Ÿ˜Žโ˜€๏ธ๐Ÿ’ƒ๐Ÿป๐Ÿ‘‹๐Ÿป And the locals were also polite. Another thing that jumped out. ๐Ÿคฉ

The cappuccinos in France were for sure better than the ones in a cafe here in Spain, but equally good as the ones I make at home ๐Ÿ˜‰๐Ÿ˜โ˜•๏ธโ˜•๏ธ Hehehe ๐Ÿคญ
Thank you so much, you too enjoy your dayโ€ฆ it is already Wednesday ๐Ÿ‘‹๐Ÿปโ˜€๏ธ๐ŸŒด๐ŸŒŠ
Time goes to quickly when you have fun.
Stay safeโ€ฆ

Good Morning to You @littlebee4 !

I am Very Glad that You made it back home (to Spain) Safe and Sound! Good Deal!
๐Ÿ‘‹๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ›ซโœˆ๏ธ๐Ÿ›ฌ๐Ÿ‘‹๐Ÿผ

I am glad that You hung out with some real French people instead of the already tourist trained folks!
๐Ÿ˜‰๐Ÿ˜€๐Ÿ˜
You could see what they are really like and that is a good thing. Tourist trap people are only interested in how to get you to spend money. Your cultural concerns are very secondary to them...๐Ÿค”

It is funny though, that You mention even friendlier than The Netherlands. I found The Netherlands to be the friendliest place I ever was. Well also the whole Benelux Area.. Of course... People tend to "act" very friendly if they know your an American Soldier, or agent thereof...
But honestly, in The Netherlands people out of the blue told me when I was paying too much for parking. Played late night movies on the sides of buildings so everyone could see.. Really, Really Cool, what Your not going to find here...

I had thought that Cappuccino's in France would be better than Spain, just had the idea..๐Ÿค“๐Ÿ˜Ž๐Ÿค“
Good You have it down, for at home!๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘‹๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿผ

Thank You so Very Much, Thursday morning for You now..
Take Care and Stay Safe - All Ways!

Good evening to you @lesmann ๐Ÿ‘‹๐Ÿป๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜Ž
๐Ÿ’ƒ๐Ÿป๐ŸŒณ๐Ÿ
Thank you so much ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜Ž๐Ÿ˜Š all doneโ€ฆ ๐Ÿ›ซโœˆ๏ธ๐Ÿ›ฌ next one probably will be an explore the area you want to move too, flightโ€ฆ ๐Ÿคž๐Ÿป๐Ÿคž๐Ÿป

Yes, the Dutch people are very helpful and think about their neighbours. But this sooooo depends on the area you are in. They are good at talking behind your back and pretending. You never see who they really are in their homes, they have multiple masks for different occasions. I lived in the Netherlands for 28 years of my lifeโ€ฆ and it changed so much. Not for the good though. Not sure if I could life there anymore. I probably choose somewhere else first.

The French were really great, and it was strange at first as we were not used to it. At the end it was just cool to greet others and spread some friendliness ๐Ÿ˜Š๐Ÿ’ƒ๐Ÿป๐ŸŽ‰
Back in Spain, people are pushy again, donโ€™t have room walking by. In France everybody makes sure everybody on a pavement has space. In Spainโ€ฆ nope, they rather bump into you than move a little, even though they have space on their side.
It is rather a contrast, being back now. And it so adds to our list why we want to move out hahaha ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿคฃ

Yes, and people always will be different for government personal, military and policeโ€ฆ in most countries.
But in the Netherlands it is strange, they donโ€™t care about the police. And go into full fights and discussions with them. As they are not carrying or able to do something back. So some people just laugh in their face and walk on. When stopped by them. I have seen this many times.
Here in Spain they are afraid for them. Such a difference again. As they are rather brutal and hard.
US is a whole other storyโ€ฆ.
The thing you see and encounter when you live in another country. But it gives you multiple viewsโ€ฆ about differences. ๐Ÿค“

The home equivalent is a sachet of powderโ€ฆ perfectly balanced. You just poor hot water in it after boiling it ๐Ÿคญ๐Ÿ˜‰ hehehe lol but still it is great. Easy for home use. For sure donโ€™t have any fancy coffee machine hahaha lol not needed and just adds up to more belongings. We need to reduce our stuffโ€ฆ

You are welcome ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿป anytime.
Thanks a lotโ€ฆ yep Thursday morning already. Wowโ€ฆ I did caught up yesterday with my notifications from the last 5 days that I missed. Now going through the ones of the night time ๐Ÿ˜‰๐Ÿค“
Have a wonderful day today and enjoy your evening ๐Ÿ‘‹๐Ÿป๐Ÿ˜โ˜€๏ธโ˜•๏ธโ˜•๏ธ On my cappuccino now ๐Ÿค“

The "Two Faced" European, I myself have known a few. But The Dutch did seem far less so than Germans. And like You said, since the Police respect is low, they may not care. Or the working for U.S. (or being American for that matter), may also come into play....๐Ÿค”
Well I am going to be honest with You....
Americans are probably - Especially in the New Jersey / North East pretty rude. It was another reason I got away from there when I landed. Though I will admit that after this, I would rather have someone be rude to my face than plot behind my back.
Yes the multiple views will help - immensely!

Funny, I have also down throttled to "instant coffee"...
Mostly the same reasons, with a twist..๐Ÿ˜‰๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜…
Enjoy Your Cappuccino's this Morning and have a Wonderful Friday!

They sure are, but these things you donโ€™t see as a visitor. You need to live there for a bit.
I understand what you say. Yes, me too. Tell me in the face everything, but not behind my back. So I think it isnโ€™t a problem when the are ruderโ€ฆ in general. You do know what is happening at all times.
I think I prefer that. Than people trying to manoeuvre around each otherโ€ฆ pretending.
Funny funny.

It is said that some people donโ€™t respect certain things. Also the respect the older generation had towards the older people. I see this is disappearing. That is a concerning thing. Not good at all. In many ways.
It sure helps our multiple views from other countries. We can throw it all in the mix and show what we learned and how we evolved. It is good. Somehow it is like being a chameleon. You can change and adjust very quickly as you have the โ€œtoolsโ€ to do so ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜Ž๐Ÿ’ƒ๐Ÿป

Hahaha you did tooโ€ฆ hahaha funny another similar thing although it is a small detail.
Thanks, I had my first one. I think it is time for another one now. And some lunch ๐Ÿ˜‰๐Ÿ˜โ˜•๏ธโ˜•๏ธ๐Ÿฅ—๐Ÿฅ—

Yes You Do!๐Ÿ˜Ž๐Ÿค“๐Ÿ˜Ž
Short term, you would probably never catch it. Cause Germans are "Super Friendly" when you first meet them. But to be honest, I also did meet a few cool ones, a few...

Yes the ability to "adjust on the fly" is good to have, especially if you move around. Most places the "this is me so deal with it", doesn't work...๐Ÿค”

Yeah I actually bought a Mr. Coffee, nice machine.. My roommates began using it for an island to set things on. Well for a few months I kept taking things off the top and telling them - if it gets broke, your buying...
Well I figured out the fatter one was playing a game with me so... I just said screw it! Then the other one bought a French Press and started making Coffee with that..
Well that Coffee could only be described as "dirty water",
So I went to instant..
Like a lot of things... I remove myself from their Sphere of influence...๐Ÿ˜‰๐Ÿ˜„๐Ÿ˜
I hope Your lunch was a good one! ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿผ๐Ÿฅ—๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿผ
Take Care and Enjoy the Cappuccino's and Your Saturday!

Yepโ€ฆ when you meet, but they are also very hard and cold. I experienced. Very solution drivenโ€ฆ

O noooo, never got in a place weโ€™re that would work. Yes for the locals, but sure not for the visitors, travellers or newbies that move there. It is a process though and can grow. In either direction ๐Ÿ˜‰

No they didnโ€™tโ€ฆ what an idiots. Sorry to hear that. People having no respect for other peoples possessions. Sounds like a game.

I understand that you went to instant coffee now hahaha easy to avoid the others.
And there sphere of influence. ๐Ÿ˜Ž one day you donโ€™t need to manoeuvre around them. ๐Ÿคž๐Ÿป๐Ÿคž๐Ÿป๐Ÿคž๐Ÿป

Well Your right there...
I had thought it might be left over from the War, and yeah they are Very solution driven.

You might be right there, never thought about it but it "is" locals that play the "deal with me card"...
Makes me think about something!
Ha ha ha! Maybe if one does this, they will think your normal "!
๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿ˜‚
They would here....

Yeah the fatter one (and this is part of how he got there) is a master manipulator, and thinks it make him intelligent. No, he has no respect for anybody's anything - except one screwed up friend of his... He will take your stuff and give it away, and get angry if you make him get it and bring it back.

Yeah the coffee machine became a favorite game if his, so I stopped playing.
Of course by now, I have done this with so many things - and I have, I really don't feel like I am living a life anymore... Just reacting to craziness...๐Ÿค”๐Ÿค”๐Ÿ˜•
I "Am" looking forward to that day that I don't have to do all the crazy stuff around them, it is tiring...๐Ÿ˜ถ

I had my normal "Meditations" Saturday, so except not feeling too "right", very Mello day....๐Ÿง˜๐Ÿง˜๐Ÿง˜
You have The Best of the Rest of the weekend!

Nope, not a left over, just that is how they are. My mom and her family was/ is the sameโ€ฆ

And they doโ€ฆ the locals.
Hahaha interesting. Yes, it could work, as it does there.

Sounds like a person to avoid altogether. But sometimes you donโ€™t know that upfrontโ€ฆ and you are trying to help someone. A sad case in many ways.

I soooo understand what you are saying and going through, the moving around them, their craziness. The not really living part as you are on hold until you moveโ€ฆ
You will get there. Keep going. Look ahead. But not to far. Try still to enjoy the little things around you, when you are away from them. Those brighten up things. The flowers in the garden. The people in the shopsโ€ฆ a birdโ€ฆ or the cats. Anythingโ€ฆ ๐Ÿ˜Š๐Ÿคž๐Ÿป๐Ÿ˜Ž walk along the water line when it is cooler at night or the early morning.

Good you had your meditationsโ€ฆ hope all is ok and your not coming down with anything. Or your mood is shifting the wrong way. ๐Ÿ˜Šโ˜€๏ธ๐Ÿคž๐Ÿป

Thank you so much, I hadโ€ฆ it goes to fast this weekend. But I still enjoy the little things.
Have a good evening!
Did you end up finishing the movie ๐ŸŽฅ Lucy. Or not yetโ€ฆ

It is good you notice, most German related people would not.. Normal is Normal - to them...
Like when I was there, they let you know there is a reason their engineering is the best in the world..

Yeah, they don't know your out of place until you act like it!
๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿ˜‚
I think here the.bkending in ball game probably works better than anyplace in the States. Because every American that is into this kind of stuff is and has been coming here.
And since you can speak Spanish it would be a HUGE plus.
Once I applied for a job, it required being "bi-lingual"...
So I go to the interview, all is good - so she asks me about my Spanish.. I tell her beyond a few words I cannot speak it...
She says the job requires a bi-lingual person, I told her I speak English & German.,. She looked at me like I have a problem and asked me to leave...๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿ˜‚
She said I was "not" bi-lingual, though I pointed out reading the job information I was qualified. Bi-lingual does not mean Spanish it means two languages...๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ
Fun Stuff!!!

I got you in focusing on other things, the nature and the Cats are really my "True" friends in this. They really, really help!
Actually another funny story there..
The 300lbs (or close) roommate decided to rescue a kitten one day. I told her I am not against, keep in mind that once you do this, it's kinda permanent. I say this because these two like to get the ball rolling and "hand-off" to someone else...
Anyways after awhile one day she says "she's tired of feeding the fucking Cats"... So I have been since then, and litter, drops, etc... Lately she has bought a few bags of food...
But yeah, I try to get away whenever possible for whatever reason - and mostly end up somewhere in a natural environment.

I don't think I am catching anything.. Just heat and not eating right with lots of my mind.. You Know how it is..๐Ÿ˜

Thank You and have the Best Monday Morning!
Stay Safe and Healthy!

Hahaha funny funny.
Yep I do see all of that even though Iโ€™m about 50% German but the 25% French and Dutch counterpart. Lol there is much more in our family history for sureโ€ฆ but never looked into it. Where we are from.
Luckily Iโ€™m not normal hahaha ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿคฃ Iโ€™m different and show it. Or donโ€™t I lol ๐Ÿ˜†

Exactly if you act the part and blend in fiscally all is fine.
You know, I do speak Spanish and can behave like themโ€ฆ but no I still donโ€™t blend in. I tried and tried, even now but it is the area. I always will be treated like a tourist. Itโ€™s sad. Their loss hahaha now I (we) will move out.

Yes, I hear in the forums of expats that most are diverting for Texas. No idea whyโ€ฆ but some feel like, yes we want to live freeโ€ฆ but donโ€™t see the rest. Letโ€™s wait for a while and see what happens. The ones that are yelling the hardest are coming out of California. As the cost are just getting ridiculous there.

Hahaha you made me laugh there. Bi-lingual definitely means any two languagesโ€ฆ hahaha thatโ€™s a great story. O myโ€ฆ ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿคฃ
Yes, I know they probably mean Spanish and English. But still, you were qualified.
She needs to put out better job descriptions hahaha ๐Ÿคฃ

That is exactly what people forget, getting an animal inside, rescue or notโ€ฆ it is for life and they have to take care of it. Not just while it is cute and funโ€ฆ and than hand it off.
Like now happened with you. Some just do not understand this.

I would like to have some pets. But not now as I so understand the responsibility of it. I know we move a few more times, first abroad, than a rental until we find the perfect fixer upperโ€ฆ and we want to travel places now we still can. A pet or any animal just wonโ€™t work for us yet. One dayโ€ฆ but not now. Even if it would be neverโ€ฆ all fine ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿค“ it is a huge responsibility. ๐Ÿค“

Yepโ€ฆ I so knowโ€ฆ and the heat does do the rest now. Be careful. Try to stay dehydrated.
I am on the lower end of that as I just canโ€™t drink much in a day. But never hadโ€ฆ wonโ€™t reach a litre water.
But I know and do my best hehehe
Hope thatโ€™s all that it is. As your body does react to stressโ€ฆ in many ways.
I once had half of my face paralysed for 8 longgggg months. I couldnโ€™t even close one of my eyes. So needed to drip it and put crรจme in there at night. This caused my eye sight to go down a bitโ€ฆ when I was about 21 years. (Bellโ€™s palsy) it wasnโ€™t funny, got many tests back than, and they never found anythingโ€ฆ so must have been stress.

You are welcome @lesmann ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ‘‹๐Ÿป Anytime and always.

I Know!
To be honest, when I first got here.... I was Bull Shitted into the idea that in some way Mexicans are bad and You don't want anything to do with them..๐Ÿค”
Funny as I came here to blend in with them, but as an ex Soldier I was a person who was thinking U.S. is U.S., why are these people insisting on Spanish?
Well there were things I didn't know, and in a way this mentality cost me..... A lot! ๐Ÿค”๐Ÿ˜ฎ๐Ÿ˜ฏ

I think unless you have a boatload of money or are crazy nobody should come here...
True some things are cheaper.. However that has its price as well...
If I was already in California I would make it work. The cultural change is "HUGE"! For example it's oK to carry around guns here if your over 18.. And a lot of other backwards things as well. Of course it is possible to make it work, but as free as it is - it's not that free. Yeah. If you want a gun and insult certain people on the streets - it's free, but not much beyond that. Also you do have personal rights other states don't think about.. Like no COVID Shots, only if you want. Land is cheap - free, Yep "FREE" down by the boarder as long as you make improvements. And still... โ˜น๏ธโ˜น๏ธโ˜น๏ธ
And always getting worse as the worse are flocking here - based in dreams and mis-information!
Funny though...
I worked for some Schwab's straight from Stuttgart, close to where I lived. At first they were OK... Then they found out that if you like you can insult or whatever certain people here...
They took this all the way! And yep in typical fashion friendly at first and then nasty as possible. In my case worse because they could also give me crap in German...
And when I quit they begged me to stay...ha ha ha!๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ
They have since moved their business into the City of Corpus Christi and out of the islands....
Also funny, there was this American guy who worked with us, he was a Church person trying to get a job that didn't go against his beliefs - so a German Bakery seemed natural...
You should have seen this guy after awhile, and he could not believe they were like this either. They even did a video chat back to Stuttgart to show everyone how nice they are to Americans....๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿคฃ

In a sentence...
Treating animals bad, or careless (any) makes Me so mad I could hit people! Literally! They also did this with a dog before... When he got grown they found someone to take him to their property and make him a barn dog - after being raised totally different..๐Ÿ˜ฅ๐Ÿ˜ข๐Ÿ˜ฅ

Quick story,
Maybe someone added something I do not digest well...
To the food... I believe this to be the case... My guts are on fire, and off and on have been for a few days now....

I am Glad You got over the eye thing... The worst! ๐Ÿ‘๏ธ๐Ÿ‘๏ธ
Cause there is the pain and infection thing, and as You mentioned sight as well!

Thank You @littlebee4 !
I really appreciate that! You have a Marvelous Awesome Tuesday as Well! ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿผ๐ŸŒ„๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿผ
Enjoy Your Day to the Fullest!

And that is the problem, people are relaying on misinformation. They have no ideaโ€ฆ
And it is sad to hear, that in this time, people are still divided. For where they came from. It is just ridiculous. I never ever can understand that.
To bad you didnโ€™t know and found out later.

Yep sounds like that, unless rich or crazy not a place weโ€™re one wants to live as all the weird and crazy people do go there now since a while. It will get crazier as I hear that in the corridors (so to speak)

The gun thing in the US is a bit scaryโ€ฆ that is one thing Iโ€™m not that happy with. But probably because I havenโ€™t grew up with it. I try to avoid. I think we are ok in New England though.

There are always two sides of a coin. Even clever people donโ€™t see that sometimesโ€ฆ let alone the rest hahaha ๐Ÿ˜œ ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿ˜‚

I so feel you about animalโ€ฆ

O nooooo, you really think that. Than it probably is. Is there anything you can take to counteract? Sook up whatever they gave youโ€ฆ
Be careful @lesmann it doesnโ€™t sound good ๐Ÿ˜ณ๐Ÿ˜ณ๐Ÿ˜ณ๐Ÿ˜ฌ

Luckily I didnโ€™t have an infection. The drips and crรจme were for this, so my eye didnโ€™t dry out as I couldnโ€™t close it. Nothing worked muscle and nerve way. I never had any pain. Just think of it like this. From the top of my face all the way downโ€ฆ to my neck. Half of my face was paralysed. All the muscles and nerves were NOT working anymore. Crazy stuffโ€ฆ still when Iโ€™m tired or sneeze you see some of the muscles and nerves had some damage. It never fully recovered from the paralysis. My eye sight went so much down over the years after that Iโ€™m with both eyes on -5. So I wear lenses now but will go to glasses as, as we get older eyes get dryer and lenses less comfortable hahaha ๐Ÿ˜œ another thing that happens growing older.

Thank you so much ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ’ƒ๐Ÿป๐Ÿ’ƒ๐Ÿป You too do the same. Have a good day (hopefully with feeling better)
Stay safe!!!!

Yeah...
It's like that - but again if you have cash you can make things go away here, and a lot do....
Here guns are the "freest" you will find in the States. No background check, nothing. It's easier than buying beer because to buy beer you need to be 21! ๐Ÿ˜ฃ๐Ÿ˜–๐Ÿ˜ฃ
Yes this is Scary, and yes in New England that is "Not" going on.
That would scare them!
On the other side, if there is one...
Where I live (special case I know) there is (comparatively speaking) no problems. And I get it, if most people have guns in their pockets it's less likely that someone tries anything. And this does work.
Here even in Driving class they teach people to not act crazy on the roads because you do not know who has a gun!
๐Ÿ˜ง๐Ÿ˜ฆ๐Ÿ˜ฎ๐Ÿ˜ฏ๐Ÿ˜ฒ๐Ÿ˜ณ
That's Amazing Stuff in 2022!
I wished we'd be "Much" further along than this...

I think that I was steered in the "anti-Mexican" direction because the name change and other things were coming soon.... That would have messed up everything for them!
๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ

Yes I do think that.. And once again I am over it, I think...
Funny, same as the last time, the "I made a lot of food story, don't you want some"? With the your insulting me if you don't look...๐Ÿค”

And another Similarity arises! ๐Ÿ˜…๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜…
Really not so funny, but....
Both me and my sister have torn our faces off.. Literally...
Her years ago, me on Feb.02. 2020!
She got paid for it, I did not (had a accident on my e-bike, somehow...).
She went to Doctors and also has some occasional paralysis, etc...
I didn't (he he he he! ๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿผ) I fixed myself! My pic here is me a year afterwards - and so glad I didn't go to the Doctors . I was just looking in the mirror the other day thinking about the amount of scars from stitches I would have now!
๐Ÿ˜ฌ๐Ÿคฏ๐Ÿ˜ฌ
But my sister has the same eye thing, and yes has gone to glasses.
But it looks like we have all been through the facial paralysis, except (lucky for you) it did not come in a painful way!
Still I know, it's a weird feeling...

You take Care as Well!
As Always Wishing You the Very Best!
Blessed Mid-Week and You!
And Enjoy Your Morning Cappuccino's!

I knowโ€ฆ if you have cashโ€ฆ doors literally open up and you can do things others canโ€™t. Funny stuff but this is anywhere in the world.

I heard that, that it was the freest of the US. Scaryโ€ฆ to get it that easy. But like you say, people are careful in another way. As they know others could cary.
In 2022โ€ฆ yep strange this is still happening and not really evolving. One dayโ€ฆ it has too.

Oh that sounds logical, with the name change and all. Sorry you didnโ€™t caught it back than. ๐Ÿค“
Never ever join in when they made more. Nope, not a good idea.

Thatโ€™s just interesting ๐Ÿค” another thing similarโ€ฆ now included your sister. Mine was way back though around 2000/ 2001.

Thank you so much @lesmann ๐Ÿ‘‹๐Ÿป๐Ÿ‘‹๐Ÿป๐Ÿ‘‹๐Ÿปโ˜€๏ธโ˜€๏ธโ˜€๏ธ

He he he!
Texans will sell their morals - for a profit!
๐Ÿ’ฐ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿค ๐Ÿ’ฒ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿ’ฒ๐Ÿค ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ’ฐ
They are the most money crazy of any people I have met, and have no consciousness about it.
Their "Biggest Scam", and this they do all day" blatantly, is this...
They buy cars and trucks they cannot afford... So....
They register a bullshit business, and it might exist - maybe, doesn't have to.
So then they "buy" things and say it's for "their" business - but it's theirs...
So...
You have people having company's that have no need for trucks hauling around people's boats. Stuff like this. In NJ they would impound everything, and fine You for defrauding the Government. But here anyone that can does this.
That way, for the "business" they get tax breaks, etc.. Cheaper business loans, all that... Another part of Tex-Ass...
And that is how they afford those huge pickup trucks!
๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿค ๐Ÿ˜‚
You know, looking back - Yep it all is... But (my thinking๐Ÿค”), "who" thinks of and does this kind of stuff?
I would not think of it. If I had a kid that wanted this "I" would give him $500 and tell him he needs to leave - fast.
(
I would only give him the money for no excuses on going)

Yes my face deal was pretty recent.. Interesting though, very..

Your Always Welcome and Thank You @littlebee4 !

Really, I didnโ€™t know that, that they are like this. Will keep it in mind.
Funny that they do get away with things like that. Just opening a company and claiming back through the tax and getting incentives. Crazyโ€ฆ who would think that.

Thank you @lesmann always! You are kind.

Yep that's how wild it is and...
They kinda think your stupid if you don't do this...
Sort of "I am a smart Texan and this is how we do it". They buy BMW's, Jaguars, Land Rovers, boats, anything larger this way - small things too...๐Ÿค”
Some shopping and all restaurants!
Not McDonalds (and sometimes there too) but everywhere else...
And you watch this and say "Wow"!๐Ÿคฏ
You can do none of this in the Northeast.
They will take your things up there.

And Thank You as Well @littlebee4 !
Stay Blessed and Safe Always!

Wowโ€ฆ just amazed that they can do that in the south and get away with it and up northeast not.
I wouldnโ€™t want to live like that. Knowing you do something that isnโ€™t right. Nopeโ€ฆ
It would give me worries ๐Ÿ˜ฃ

Yeah because then You are in the mix...
But so many do that (and there is a bunch more), it's probably the most common crime here - that is let happen.

No I would feel uneasy myself. The conscious thing!

And Yep, consciousness, most do not have that here. They think they do, compared to the rest of the world....
Noooooo!

But to be fair (took me a very long time to figure this out), they "do" expect that you would be the same so it's Cool...
The only shock is when you're not!

I am doing the same and hope You are as well!
