I have a feeling that Trish is talking about translating for a hospital or law firm or something. I would imagine that a translator for books or articles would require more skill than just speaking the language. You'd need a very encyclopedic knowledge of both languages' structure, idiom and so on. 

We went to Ikea this weekend and my god it was a madhouse. As we were driving down I was just "we are insane, we're going to Ikea on a rainy Saturday the day the mask mandate is lifted". 

I have a friend who lives in Munich who translates novels - yes it's very difficult and your skills need to be at a high level.   Too bad about the Jersey Shore weather wise, but we NEED the  rain.

As per google search: "The most common minimum annual income required to sponsor a spouse or family member for a green card is $21,775. This assumes that the sponsor — the U.S. citizen or current green card holder — is not in active military duty and is sponsoring only one relative."

https://www.boundless.com/immigration-resources/income-requirements-for-green-card/#:~:text=The most common minimum annual,is sponsoring only one relative.

How is she survive if on that income with 2 kids? If she is making less that that she has bigger problems

And, you translate into your native language.  I'd think that earlier immigrants and their children already own the Ukrainian translation market in Sequim, even for newscasts.

When my aunt was alive, she would get letters from family who lived in Ukraine. She noticed that the language started to get more Russian and she struggled at times.

The vegan I know is morbidly obese so I assume there must be some unhealthy vegan food too. 😂

Any vegetable can be fried. There are lots of vegan desserts. Bread is vegan. So are french fries. Oreos are vegan, and go well with almond milk. The possibilities are endless.

She should be making at least that with her 90 Day Gig.

Dead. Already. 

I detest her. 

"She should have watched where she was going" 

She looks like a poison mushroom. 

How about Momma's plan, that Natalie "do translation"? Is she some kind of expert? Does she know how Natalie should go about that, exactly? 

Poison Mushroom doesn't seem to know that being an interpreter takes training and a background check. You can't just walk into the hospital and say "I speak Ukranian".

LOL, JoJo and Angela have the matching “Best” and “Friends” shirts, just like little 9-year-old girls!❤️

That green sludge is not exactly a “clear liquid” but I guess it’s better than Coke.
 

Angela calls her under neck skin a “turkey goggle”. It’s a turkey wattle.

I don't buy the fact that the Doc took out more than he should have with the boobs. Ange would have had to sign a release form. Doc can't just say i am taking out one pound. It's unrealistic in case of complications.  Docs need to make snap decisions in the operating room. I bet there was a range between 1-2 pounds.

He'd be doing it in another 20-30 years, if he ever made it over here.  She told him so.

He’ll be gone as soon as he gets citizenship and I do not blame him.

Good translators are a rare find. Folks can do literal ones, but the good ones make the translation their own.

But do they have the matching charm necklace from Claire’s, circa 1991?

So Ange is getting all this surgery to appear younger, but will keep smoking like a chimney.

She's a strong woman but sometimes she just needs a ciggie!!!  And no one is going to tell her what to do!!!

It's amazing how many people have these major surgeries and are shocked that it HURTS!

Denial.
I was surprised when I had surgery that it hurt so much and took so long to heal...and normal is forever changed. I was told "Six to eight weeks.", but I thought "Eh, two weeks tops...I'll have FOUR WEEKS off work to do as I please."

Fast forward...I was still sitting down to go up and down the stairs EIGHT weeks later!

Here's my question re: Angela. I know she can't have coke due to the gas. 

Can't she drink flat coke?

When my friend was pregnant she had such terrible morning sickness that she had to have a spoonful of flat coke every half hour. It was the only thing she could keep down.

Exactly! Momma seems to think that would be all it takes. She's a fucking idiot, in addition to being a very unpleasant person.
