r/cumming

I’ve been living near cumming all my life, but can’t seem to find any good cliff jumping spots or rope swings at all, does anyone know of any good ones near here?

This is in Georgia, roughly 50 miles north of Atlanta.

Background: when we had our will drafted 25 years ago when our children were young, we got a phone price from two attorneys so we knew going in what the price would be. We chose the attorney who was more expensive because we knew more people who had used him. We had a lengthy consult with him to make decisions, he sent us home with some homework, and then he drafted a will for each of us for the agreed price.

Now our children are grown, and the executors we listed 25 years ago are no longer good options because they are very old, the will talks about guardianship of the minor children if something were to happen to both of us, etc. and so much of that is not relevant anymore that we thought it is time to just get a new will.

We have a recommendation for an attorney and when we contacted the firm about a consult, the paralegal wrote back and said it’s $375 for a consult, and once we consult with the attorney then we’ll find out the price of the will and the price of any other documents or trusts or any other protections we might want to add. I don’t mind the lawyer charging for his time for the consult, and I realize if you’re doing a trust or other things that the pricing might not be something they can quote upfront. But I’d really like to know the price of wills for a married couple (both wills would be identical). I don’t know if we would add any other documents, but i’d like to at least know the price range of doing wills for a married couple before we commit to the $375 consult fee.

Maybe I’m wrong. It has been 25 years since we’ve dealt with this, but for any of you who are an attorney or any of you who have had an attorney draft a will for you in the last few years, is this normal to not have any idea what the will will cost until you pay $375 to find that out?

hiii, recently moved back to the area after being away for a couple years. looking to make some pals in the area, i don't even know what there is to do here 😭

So as many of you know, Exit 11A finally finished development on Thursday after almost 5 years. But is it really going to make a difference? The interchanges on Windward and McFarland are close enough. I just wanna know if I can expect traffic to be lighter.

What do you think?

I’m looking for someone to meet up with and do consistent doggy play dates/ walks. I have a boxer mix who loves people and wants to make friends. I’m looking to have him more socialized and want to start walking him more in newer areas. My wife and I are late 20’s early 30’s. If we do a dog park he is a physical player but very mouthy which I know can be scary for dog owners. If interested DM me!

My current doctor, located in Tate, GA is retiring. She has been helping me manage a taper off of a very low dose lorazepam (I only took 1 mg per day in the first place), and I am using liquid lorazepam to taper off it. Which is working well. I use this medication for bladder pain related to some metabolic issues I have been having for some time. The bladder medications I tried shot my blood pressure up to nearly stroke level, and I wound up in the E.R. twice. I saw my doctor every three months to discuss taper progress and get refills. The physician taking over her practice is already insisting I come EVERY month or he won't prescribe a refill. I cannot afford to go every single month, and he will not budge. I don't have insurance, so I am self pay. I really need a new physician here in Cumming that can help me complete my tapering process.

I have to do this slowly to minimize side effects of going off the medication and honestly, it's been such a hassle I'm sorry I ever agreed to use it to begin with. If anyone has suggestions for a good, reasonably priced doctor in Cumming who can help with this, I would be most grateful.

Found an older brick ranch home with a great lot but it relies on a private septic system rather than city sewer lines. Are there common soil compaction or high water table issues in this pocket that cause line failures during heavy spring rains?
