We got pulled over once in Reno, my husband driving and decided to turn kinda last second, but didn't actually violate any laws. It was around midnight, there was snow in the ground and we hadn't been prepared when we went there. I was wearing a dress, thick socks, and one of my husbands dress jackets. Then they asked me to step out of the vehicle. There was the initial officer and then 2 backup, one female and one male, who stayed with me. The male frisked me and when the female saw my wedding ring, she asked kinda surprised, "are you two married?" After that she seemed to wonder what the point was. It seemed they'd been called in as backup for suspicion of something that she seemed to no longer suspect us of. The initial officer had asked if I was nervous, but I wasn't nervous, just cold, and when I told him, he said he was too. Yeah?! Well, he was wearing more than me, and he's the one who made the decided to put us both in that situation! They asked me questions, one of which was where we were going to stay that night, and when I asked finally what that mattered to them, they stopped asking me questions and went and got my husband. My husband pushed back more, and when the original officer didn't get anywhere with him, he used his flashlight and walked around our van, which I was not standing in front of with the two backups. Since we don't do any drugs or had any cash, they eventually ended up letting us go with a warning or something. We'd seen a video of a guy passing through Nevada who kept his money in cash cause he didn't trust the banks, and the cops confiscated his money anyways, even if he had legitimate records of every single dollar with him! Turned out they get paid for sending money along to... the drug unit I believe... regardless of if it's legit or not. It took him fighting them with lawyers for 6 months to get his money back! We were so happy we were already into Bitcoin and hadn't accidentally had a wad of cash with us when this happened. We needed to forgive them and let it go, especially me, cause I didn't wanna set foot in Nevada again after how they treated us/me. Now I'm fine with it and have had some more pleasant times in that state, but I still wouldn't want to live there! It sure seemed like they were fishing for something else, cause it's not normal for cops to pull out the passenger at a traffick stop! Anyways, keep your money in bitcoin and not cash if you're driving through Nevada 😅 nostr:nevent1qqst53ylmc775a7rk33wvndge0h7uvnmt5fdv3j3t6gee7nu0rt77aqppemhxue69uhkummn9ekx7mp0qgs043gn588da502h36q0sffjay9m69mk28dmm805qtgzl7g6n6q0fgrqsqqqqqpdnjw86

I've been craving chocolate on and off for weeks now. My mom is now in the country, but I'm not sure I'll get to see her until tomorrow. I'm pretty sure she's brought chocolate! I'm not saying the only reason I want to see her is to get chocolate, but when she's focused on meeting her first grandson, I can focus on eating chocolate, right? 😃

We've been driving a car with transmission issues since June, and coolant issues more recently. We haven't had reverse and only 3rd gear works. Well, we just completed our first long drive with our motorhome, and both of us were wondering why we haven't just been using it this whole time! It has reverse, it can shift to all the gears, it can use cruise control, it has a backup camera! Oh, and it comes with a house!!! Like bathroom, kitchen, bedroom. It didn't need transmission fluid or more water, it didn't struggle to start moving or threaten to overheat the engine! The only negative is that it drank $193 of gas to fill up, and there was still a bit left in the tank at the time. 😅 But if we ignore how much it costs to run it, it ran great!!! 😃😅🥳

So, when it was 90f in October, I wanted winter... it's 39f now, eh, can I please have fall back?! Like, can we do a happy medium of like 72-75f please?! 😃

I just accidentally said, "I wonder if those are the only bitcoins we got." 😳😱😳 Eh, I mean sats! They're called sats! 😬 please forgive me for this hideous mistake!

Looking at someone like they were a million dollars used to be a the highest compliment, but now there's competition. I look at my husband like he's a whole Bitcoin. How do you look at your spouse? 😎🥰

Did all y'all stop doing pushups? 100k pushup gang, you gotta get back on it!!!

Overhearing a group of Christian women commenting on how they've struggled with holding onto offence and realizing it's up to them to fix it, or starting to compare her husband to someone else and finding herself getting recentful and deciding to stop watching that type of content. Well, I'm hearing them and I'd love to share with them how to make deals, and how to interact with men in a way that will actually work. They're clearly wanting to make things work and have good attitudes, but they're missing some useful tools. Oh, now they're talking about gratitude, and the posture of gratitude, which is great! But sometimes we can do something about the thing that's causing us to not naturally feel happy, instead of just shifting your attitude. I wrote about a lot of this in "How to Prepare Yourself for Marriage", but clearly, already married people also need to know this so I'm getting more and more inspired to write, "How to Make Marraige Easier."

Just looked up from my table and there's an old couple sitting at a table near by, both of whom are staring at their own phones! It's not just the young ones anymore 🤣🤣🤣

If you get baby wipes, don't get these unless you want to pick off fussies for an hour after use. Plus they're small so for a baby poop I think I used like 7 of them when I usually use 2-3 🙄 and the "flushable" part stands for "breaks super easily!" After cleaning up a poopy diaper with these wipes, I didn't wanna pick off the fussies so I literally rinsed my son in the sink to get them off 😅 also noticed I'd missed some spots cause the lighting by the changing table wasn't very good 😬😅🤣 But hey, he didn't scream his head off like he tried to do last time I rinsed him in a sink due to a poop explosion, so that was nice!

I've seen some couples who just fit, but I used to have a hard time believing that I was someone who would have that. Then I broke agreements with that, and accepted the truth that, "I will have a marriage that others look at and question if 'the one' really isn't a thing." Shortly after that, I met my husband, and I now live in one of those relationships. Breaking agreements with lies that we have believed about relationships and accepting the truth of what can actually be, is something that will drastically change our possibilities! I added a whole chapter about breaking up with lies in "How to Prepare Yourself for Marriage, " because it's so important!

If you know a woman who doesn't understand you, I reccomend introducing her to Alison Armstrong's content. She teaches the differences between men and women, and it's actually the real stuff rather than cliches or stereotyping. Like the fact that men play for points, so encouraging him is going to work way way better than nagging! I referred to her work in our book, "How to Prepare Yourself for Marriage," because it really helped us make our marriage easier! 🤗

When I moved to the US, I came to be a part of the culture, because I like it. Sure, I keep some parts of my Swedish culture, but I adapt to where I live. For me to think that I could come here and assume the Americans sould speak Swedish to me would be insane. For me to expect this country to act like I'm used to at home, I'd be constantly disappointed and confused, and it would be insane for me to assume the Americans should adopt my culture and even give space for my culture. If I came from a country that was so bad that I didn't want to stay there. The glass is greener on the other side so I go there, but the reason it was greener was because it was taken care of, it was watered and it wasn't driven on a bunch like I'd done at home, but when I go there I keep doing what I used to do, the greener glass it also die and get destroyed because I didn't keep watering it, and I drive all over it. We can totally understand this in this situation, but people haven't been able to think that when it comes to immigration.

I knew I had a super power of finding things, but since marrying my husband I have learned that I have another super power, the power of diplomacy. First, I'm a woman so people are more likely to want to help if I ask. But more than that, the way I ask causes people to feel more at east and are more likely to want to assist as well.

I got a compliment on my dress today! ☺️

Anyone selling bitcoin under 100k is wanting to be poor. Only those who are all in on bitcoin and sell to buy something are exempt from being poor.

All money has traces of drugs on them, except Bitcoin. Real money doesn't do drugs! 🤣
