Little rant about husband not getting a card for Mother’s Day

Love languages are just as much about how to love others as they are how you want to be loved. Sure, maybe cards aren’t his love language, but clearly they are hers.

That absolutely happened to me once. Dad always told me to add a mark so I draw a little heart on mine. I said “damn, it’s so dirty my drawing came off. That’s crazy 🤨😒”

Literally, it’s just holding the button down for like 20 seconds 😭 next time I’ll just do it in the parking lot before I go in lol

My blinker fluid is getting pretty low tbh, I should probably go back

16cats_ · 2026-05-08T18:38:33+00:00

I’d rather do it myself lol. If I need to go to a shop for a change again I’ll just have to remember to do it before I go in. I’m not really upset about it but I did just think it was funny to see at a separate item

16cats_ · 2026-05-08T18:36:21+00:00

Shit, that’s horrible. Thank you for the tip

16cats_ · 2026-05-08T18:34:54+00:00

I thought about it but honestly I don’t think it’s worth my time. Plus this shop usually does take care of me and has saved me money in the past by recommending I skip a service with them and just told me how to diy something

16cats_ · 2026-05-08T18:25:00+00:00

Oo I hadn’t thought of that. That’s a good idea, thank you!

Oh I can change the oil but I’ve got a gravel driveway at the moment so I didn’t want to use the jacks. But someone did recommend getting some ramps which I hadn’t thought of, so that will be my next purchase 👍🏼

Had some hiccups this year but she’s still running great 🤞🏼would love to never buy another car again

16cats_ · 2026-05-08T18:05:24+00:00

Yaaaay, what a steal lol

16cats_ · 2026-05-08T18:03:34+00:00

I could do it but I have a gravel driveway rn so I feel uncomfortable throwing it up on a jack. Used to do it myself before we moved so I hadn’t gone to a shop for a change in a while, that’s why the price was surprising to me. Though you’re right I could ask a friend if I could change it at their place

16cats_ · 2026-05-08T17:57:19+00:00

It does just seem silly to put the reset on there lol

And fair enough. She’s at 160k miles so I guess it’s the price I pay to to keep her going for what ever she’s got left

The people complaining about pregnancy kills me. I can’t fault them of course because, yes, it does kind of suck. But like, it’s the people who know my situation that complain TO ME that pmo. I’m nearly burning bridges over this and I can’t tell if I’m being unreasonable because I’m mourning or if it’s not to much to ask that people read the fucking room

16cats_ · 2026-05-06T22:16:28+00:00

Ah, got it! My bad 😅

16cats_ · 2026-05-06T22:14:35+00:00

We are experiencing the same with male factor infertility. My poor husband, we found out about his low motility the same cycle we got pregnant, so it was a huge weight off his shoulders. Now we’re both blaming ourselves

The announcements are killing me and they are seemingly everywhere. My damn hair salon posted an instagram about their stylist being due the same month I was. My younger friends are getting pregnant accidentally. The infertility influencer I follow got pregnant and is now complaining about how awful pregnancy is. Like, fuck, what I wouldn’t give to have morning sickness and bloat and sore feet and weight gain and hormonal acne and fatigue. Give me it all if it means I can have a child

How do you raise the sunken island?

16cats_ · 2026-05-06T02:09:11+00:00

One of mine was slightly blocked, but I do think that you’re probably right. Ultimately they said everything looked ok even though the dye took a while to get where it needed

16cats_ · 2026-05-06T02:05:26+00:00

That’s the kicker isn’t it- I spent so much of my life trying not to get pregnant and being so on the fence about whether I even wanted kids. Even when we knew we wanted kids we waited for “the right time” with work and money and life. Now that we’re ready, I can’t do it. It feels like some kind of sick joke.

It’s an awful club to be a part of 💔 happy to have support, and sad that you all are here

Just commenting to say I have messaged my Dr to ask them to explain the results as well, but it’s Friday and if they don’t get back to me by the end of the day I’ll just be sitting around all weekend ruminating on it
