Indentures in Massachusetts we’re fed so much lobster thst contracts started putting limits on how much lobster they could be fed. No joke.

That’s crazy. We didn’t have any bachelor/ette parties or even a shower. Got married under a tree and self catered our reception. And here we are still happily married 10 years later!

The outpouring of support my mom received after my dad’s untimely death is probably what held her together enough to function for the first few weeks. I was plainly very meaningful to her.

A friend of mine refused their treatments. She went to a clinic in Mexico for a more holistic/natural approach. This was years ago and she’s still alive and well.

No
I’m a homeowner but not a landlord. My insurance goes up. My property tax goes up. What if a tenant has been there for a decade and the rent no longer covers these changing expenses?
@milky_selena
This splitting mentality is so weird to me. It’s always all been “our” money. Sometimes he earns more of it, sometimes I earn more of it. Buts it’s all ours. Just like *we* have two cars. There is no his and hers.

Yep. My grandparents watched us all the time. Helped my parents financially until they were older than I am now. We live on the same road as my mom and she has watched our six year old about three full days in her entire life.

People are always so quick to sympathize with the prey, but the predator needs a meal and has a roll to play in the ecosystem, too. There's a reason prey animals have so many babies.

The neighbor does most of our dirt road maintenance. There are virtually no services. We pay for trash, have a well, etc.

It’s astonishing how many parents do t grasp the simple fact that schools tell kids that “this is not social hour” and actively block socialization. 😑 As a former classroom teacher, I’ve spent a lot of time telling kids to stop interacting.

If you’re into thermodynamics, you should know that a calorie is a unit for a closed system.
Are humans a closed system?
No.
Even the terminology is flawed.
Today marks 9 years since blue light killed my dad.
He was into computers since the 80s. Got a computer degree when it was still just part of the math department and didn't even have a computer science department.
Worked for an internet company starting in 91. We had home

I have always always been a “ wake up and go” person. I have better things to spend my time on and always have. Like working out and cooking real food so I look naturally good I’m ways that a hairstyle and makeup can’t fake.
@virgoscomet
I used to wear boy’s jeans (more pockets!) and have never worn makeup. I’m glad this wasn’t a thing when I was a kid or someone would have tried to trans me. I’m a wife, a mom, and most definitely not on a gender expression journey. I just don’t wear makeup. 🤦♀️ This stuff really
@TheFoxMatriarch
One of my husband’s adorable habits is always referring to everything in the plural. It’s ours, we did it, etc (even if he did all the work for a particular project). We don’t even have his and hers cars - we have a van and a car and we each drive whichever we need that day.

As a mom with a dead parent, no. Keep the chair, don’t force it into the nursery. Maybe she doesn’t want to think about nursing the dad and his sister every time she sits down! Maybe she doesn’t want to think about dead grandparents in the middle of the night either.

My humidity was at least 90% this morning and my ac is set to higher than your “heat wave.” Usually in the summer I’m somewhere that doesn’t have ac at all and gets into the 90s F. 78 with high humidity is an early April day where I live.
@phemoid
I guess things have changed a lot since I was in my 20s…and I’m only in my 30s 😅
20 sounds weird and high to me. I can’t even imagine having slept with that many guys.
I think a long term monogamous relationship is much better. You’re much less likely to pick something up,

Not me 😬 I never wear makeup and never have (except for my wedding and some photos).
I’ve spent too much time working outside in the South (state park) to think makeup is a good idea.

Did he need to engagement farm with this

Not a bro but I say you’re justified. My husband has ditched a friend for a ridiculous divorce. Left his wife with three kids to live in his truck in Vegas 😑

Using tax money to put period products in boys bathrooms (where they will mostly be wasted and used to vandalize and cause damage) doesn’t save money or make life more affordable.
@miaishereonline
I spend my time outside and have my ac set to 82. That’s how I deal with it. Lots easier to deal with when you’re used to it and don’t freeze indoors. You drink lots of water, take two showers a day, and accept it.
@LAChas77
The misrepresentation is so ridiculous. One of my kid’s best friends has black dad and a white mom (married, he’s an engineer). Our two closest neighbors are black and the kids play with each other every day all summer. Us regular folks aren’t at each other’s throats.

Typical of my experience with my boomer mom. She flew across the country this week to see a friend’s daughter in an opera but can’t even drive to the other end of the same street to see her only grandchild.

If you have to drug a child to make them fit into the environment, the environment is the problem.
My parents were told I was “adhd.” Thankfully my grandmother, mom of 4 and elementary school teacher, told my parents that I was just a kid. Nothing is wrong, don’t drug her. I’m

The bobcat may have babies to feed, too. Humans are always so quick to side with the prey animal. How about the bobcat who needs to eat and stay alive to help keep balance in the ecosystem? Prey animals have large litters for a reason.
@SWENGDAD
Nope. Love my husband and he's a great dad, but I don't want more kids. Love my kiddo to pieces but I didn't sleep for three years.
A supportive grandparent who actually helped? Now that could have been a game changer.
@Empty_America
My "favorite" is the WV amount. The average household income there is 55k a year with two working adults. For 189 you could outright buy 100 acres with a house and still have 50K+ left over to live on for the rest of the year.
@Watchman_motto
My mom didn’t really understand why I kept recounting stories of last year’s lambs while having lamb at Easter dinner. She found it macabre. I delight in knowing they, end the end, I “won.” I raised four ram lambs, moved their wooly butts every day, and kept them from being eaten
@mrsdobbins_
They were mad at me for “not gaining enough” and “measuring small.” My baby was perfectly fine and healthy. Husband and I are both 5’2” so duh the baby was smaller. She also sat super duper low the whole time so I never had a big up high belly. 🙄
@Thermobolic
Sunlight.
Sunrise, bright light outside during the day.
Block blue light at night and cut as many lights as possible/go to incandescent, red lights, or black lights.
I had insomnia for 20 years. I can sleep again thanks to these things. Even so, if I don’t get periodic

I get the point of your post, but these things happen to public school kids

I almost don’t care if there’s chaos…I’d like just one person who shunned or criticized me for not getting the shot to admit I made a good choice. Don’t think any of them ever will.
@DarrigoMelanie
I have a child and there is absolutely no way it costs that much to take care of her each year.
Are costs these days ridiculous? Yes, but this is not a realistic number grounded in everyday reality.

42 weeks. Risks increase after 42 weeks.
If babies were meant to be born at 39, average pregnancy length would naturally be 39 weeks

What system is gaining weight by not eating?
Artificial light and nnEMF.
Blue light causes increased blood glucose and insulin levels, independent of food consumption.
Also, a lack of natural sunlight at the correct times wrecks your metabolism and ability to burn fat.

This is the main reason people in the US circumcise. Because the dad was cut and they perpetuate the trauma. One of my parents is an OBGYN and hates this ridiculous rationale.

@Pinolero1986
What was your sunlight exposure like? Obviously you had stronger sun there, and you were probably outside more, too.
Sunlight trumps everything. A few weeks of changing my light habits did more to heal my gut than years of trying via diet

People got sick drinking milk from sick animals. The problem arose from confinement dairy for cities and a lack of refrigeration, not from grass fed cows on pasture.

My husband didn’t even know this was a thing. I had to tell him because I think it’s fun and silly and wanted to.
Didn’t really GAF about my makeup or even my dress, tbh. Sounds like she spent as much on her makeup as I did my entire reception.
Happily married 10 years as of

This tells you that being happy is “weird” in our culture/by comparison to children who attend institutionalized schools.
I’m okay with my kid being weird under these conditions.

There was a 3% decrease in maternal C sections, no improvement in outcomes for the babies. Longer time in labor for all the unnecessary inductions. Seems like a wash.
Past 42 weeks is pretty firmly entering the territory of greater risk.

Is it 105 where you live? Do you want to make the choice of leaving a kid in a super hot car (and maybe even having the cops drive by) or leaving it on and hoping the doors don’t lock or someone doesn’t decide to take your car since the keys are in the ignition and it’s

Focusing on individual landlords, not companies, many are regular people renting out a place where they used to live. They do have “real jobs” and certainly aren’t rich.
Due to various Covid rules in some places, some owners even lost their own homes while renters refused to pay

It’s pretty common and not a new thing.
Many times she loses weight and he doesn’t. Either she’s mad that he won’t man up and do the same or sometimes he’s mad at her (because he feels crummy and threatened because he hasn’t lose weight, too)
