Nice! I grew up down south in the Kent area. I played volleyball for a year at Highline CC.
Oh man, I'm sorry. I lived and worked in Kent for a couple of years right before moving back to Bellingahm. It was rough. I took a couple of classes at Highline too. Loved my A&P prof, he was great!
Yeah, and I went to the "bad" high school. It's definitely gotten worse. My parents still live there but they're looking to move in the next couple of years.
I lived at the bottom of Kent-Kangley, back behind the Post Office distribution center where there's the 7-11 and a Papa John's on the corner. I never really went out by myself. I couldn't even seem to run to the gas station by without someone saying something to me or trying to get me to stop for some reason or another. I never really felt safe.
I miss the shopping options (Ikea anyone?) and I miss getting my eyebrows threaded at Khoosburat Salon but I feel a lot safer up in Bellingham. I moved up here to be closer to my family again and it was a good move.
RRCS:While everyone was in line to buy condoms last night at the pharmacy, I had my hands full of hemeroine care products and laxcitives for DH. He is so uncomfortable and in pain. No sex for me for a while.
GTKY: Are you crafty? If so, what kind of crafts do you do? Bonus points for pictures! I am more diy in the kitchen and make my own products like red pepper ketchup, pancake mix, and canning various things. I recently took up knitting and started making a baby blanket. Not sure if I will keep it or give it away. Here is my progress

Oh, you mean the 7-11 where I was unwittingly the getaway driver in a drug robbery done by my boyfriend's cousin? Yeah, I thought I was going to die in that parking lot.
And I hear ya on the gas station. There's a 76 Station on Central that has full service pumps, so I would always go there to avoid all the creeps.

mikaela20 , Poor DH, I'm sorry! I hope he feels better soon!
ETA: That looks great! I canned my first batch of soup a couple months ago. Eventually, I plan to do more once we have a bigger place with somewhere to do food storage. I'm a bit of a prepper at heart.
mill23 , that quilt is amazing! I don't know that I will ever have the patience for a quilt. Do you have a pattern for baby sweatpants? I'm looking for some easy sewing projects to get into.
Thank you! I find quilts easier than working with knits since it's just straight line sewing! I would encourage you to just try it if you're interested- it's easy to pick up!
And how did I live there for two years and not know about the full service station on Central. I'm a little mad now. Not gonna lie.
I'm going to Canada this weekend to see Kip Moore in concert with a girlfriend. I'm staying overnight while she has to go to work on Sunday. I think I'm gonna try to find a brow place up there. Might as well take advantage of the trip and the dollar.

Definitely one of the more terrifying experiences I've had.
Love Kip Moore! And definitely take advantage of that exchange rate. I would go to Canada on the regular if I lived that close.
