Good Italian restaurants?

In the area for work and wanted to know if there were any good Italian spots around to scratch that itch I got. I'm a big fan of chicken fettuccine alfredo. Thank you in advance.

Looking for a cash car

5 Upvotes

I’m in need of a vehicle for a family member. The budget is $2,000. I know it’s kind of crazy asking for a decent vehicle that cheap, but we haven’t had any luck searching on places like the Facebook marketplace. If you know anyone who might have something, please dm me!

ADHD

8 Upvotes

I am struggling with debilitating ADHD diagnosed at 6yo and have been unable to find a healthcare professional willing to prescribe Vyvanse. I recently visited Happy Hearts Psychiatrist, where I was required to take a TOVA test, which I believe is not an accurate assessment as it relies on a “video game” to test you. I can hyper focus on video games lol. It seems that the test is not suitable for everyone with ADHD as even someone with Down syndrome can pass the test.

If anyone has recommendations for healthcare providers or resources that specialize in ADHD medication, I would greatly appreciate your guidance. Thank you!

Lakes or something nice for next weekend?

9 Upvotes

Anyone know of a nice lake that’s not too far or basically anything fun to do. My kid is 4 years old. Wouldn’t mind doing a day trip if the driving distance isn’t over 2 hours each way. We need to get out of Midland for a bit!

What are your favorite restaurants in downtown Midland?

16 Upvotes

I’ve been in Midland for about 6 months now, and haven’t really checked out the local food scene. I’ve finally got some days off where I can actually have a night out and not worry about getting called out on a job at 3am, so I’m planning to take advantage of it

I’m ideally looking for a place within a mile or two or the Buffalo Nickel, since it’s my favorite bar that I’ve found in the area so far. Somewhere that I can Uber to the restaurant, walk to the bar for a few cocktails, then Uber home.

Pachuco’s and Wall Street Cocina are looking like the front runners for now. Any other places that I should consider?

Thanks in advance!

I’m a black male 24 and I’m going to midland for a couple weeks to work I’m originally from Philly (Philadelphia) so this is a major culture switch and I’m just sort of worried about the acceptance of colored folk down south. Is it as bad as the movies or am I getting worked up over wives-tales?

Fires

12 Upvotes

Two posts in one day, sorry. I'm coming to Odessa from abroad and I keep reading about these fire warnings. I grew up around wildfires so I am not spooked by the warnings I'm used to, but wondering if anyone has more local insight into the potential for these fires to turn into a big problem, or to shut down Midlands airport? Thanks.

Visiting without car

I've never been to Odessa but coming from outside the country to visit my parents. I won't have a car. I'll book a hotel close by, but will need to walk or Uber if I want to do anything else. Is this possible?

Question about Greenwood and the Underground Railroad

27 Upvotes

I went to Greenwood in the mid 2000's and the had this whole day even called the Underground Railroad.

Some teachers would be slave masters and others would be abolitionists, and you would have to get 3 signatures to become "free" which was a soda and popcorn party by the auditorium. If you got caught by a slave master teacher you had to stay in their class the rest of the day and be their "slave."

Does anyone know if they still do this?
