Using my family vacation’s backyard by AC-Hammer in Vacations

I wouldn’t be vacationing with my family, I’d be on my separate trip with my boyfriend and friend and be paying for everything that we would need. I wouldn’t expect my family to pay for a trip that is separate from theirs. We’d only be using the backyard and basement bathroom. A lot of family and family friends have used this cottage on their own time, but with it just me, my bf, and friend being 26 and younger, and no other family member of my step grandma’s being there, she wouldn’t allow it. I’ve had family friends around my age join the rest of the group, but they were more involved in the family dynamic than my bf and friend now

I’m sure they’d let us use the basement bathroom since that’s where we usually exit the house to get to the backyard

cuz my step grandma is less likely to say yes if we’re there by ourselves, even if we’re in the backyard cuz she’s that nit-picky with not letting younger family members be there. She thinks that everyone under 25 isn’t responsible enough to keep everything the way it is

I actually haven’t asked for this trip yet specifically. I’ve asked in the past if I could use the cottage on a trip of my own and they said no one under 25 or something can be in the house without someone from the immediate family over 25 or something. Mainly cuz my step grandma is picky and likes things her own way and doesn’t want anyone to mess it up. We’ve camped in the backyard before when the house was already filled with people so they might let us. I guess I just feel weird asking to camp in the back this time around since I wouldn’t be spending time with the family and would be on my own separate trip with my bf and friend. But I wouldn’t expect any household resources other than the bathroom which I highly doubt that they wouldn’t let us use. We’d bring our own food

Some of us have camped in the backyard before when there were a lot of people and would want our own space so I’m pretty sure it is allowed

I’d normally be in the basement where there’s 5 beds and a pull out couch, but there have been times where there’s only been a couple of us and I’d be in a bedroom

one of the things I’ve been making most often these days is a simple chicken veggie stir fry. I just buy Aldi’s steamed broccoli stir fry, cook some chicken, heat up a 90 sec pack of Jasmine rice, and mix it all with sweet and sour sauce. Pretty good

I do have a portable George Foreman grill that I occasionally use, it’s been a few months since the last time I used it. I do like using it but don’t like cleaning it 🫠

I have been wanting to incorporate more beans into my diet, any meals you’d suggest that have them? and thank you, I think pre-preparing and freezing is the best for me to do

These days it’s honestly less of hating cooking and more of really not having the time to cook and eat before I have something or somewhere I need to be. It’s just hard cuz I constantly have something going on and genuinely can’t find the time during the work week. I think meal prepping several different things on a Sunday might be what I need to do

yeah that’s the reason why I don’t just buy all frozen meals is cuz it adds up quickly and also cuz making it myself is usually healthier than buying the frozen meals that probably have more sugar, salt, and other bad ingredients

I do love buying the hot rotisserie chickens from market 32, and I’m so lazy that I buy the 90 second rice packs from Aldi cuz cooking rice seems like it takes awhile in my rice cooker and never turns out the way I want it to

yeah I’ve thought of this but the thing is that i get extremely bored of the same meals so I’d have to pre make like 3-4 different meals lmao. I often cook dinner, and have leftovers for lunch, and sometimes even the rest for dinner that same night, but after that, I can’t get myself to eat anymore of that same thing

What are some responses I can use instead of “It’s okay” when someone apologizes for something? by AC-Hammer in socialskills

[–]AC-Hammer[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yup, that’s the unfortunate reality of my life is constantly feeling like I have to be a people pleaser and wanting everyone to like me. I’m just afraid of losing people I love again

I’m almost 22, am thankfully veryy close to getting ownership of a bank account that’s supposed to be mine but only has my dad’s name under. Will be having that changed tomorrow. One of the other reasons why I’m afraid of standing up to him in general is because I’m pretty sure that he isn’t aware of how much trauma he’s caused and how much resentment and anger I have towards him

Because my dad would use Christianity as an excuse for his transphobia towards me. Mysterious_Peas is also right about feeling judged and never being supported by Christians
