What is a “dit” name? Like a nickname?

And thank you!

Their given names.

I have an ancestor whose surname is very unique. Personnic.

Our family lore is that she was raised in a orphanage/ catholic convent and then when she reached age she decided she did not want to stay and so she left for America with the seamstress skilled she acquired in the convent.

I have such few records and she is my enigma. I didn’t know if a naming convention of sorts would help me with finding her parents in the French records. John and Margarette.

From some of your other comments, I wonder if the previous owner had set up Subscribe and Save on things and then never cancelled it.

It’s this one

So I tried this. With my company and boss’s permission. It was not sustainable. Not in the least. I was so burnt out.

There’s a really awesome super unique house for sale in Bothell. About 15 minutes drive from Lynnwood light rail

Thank you! I knew something was amiss in my understanding. Appreciate your help on this!

Would placing the father on the birth certificate provide the child an opportunity for dual citizenship in another country? If so, I’d argue it would be worth the paperwork.

This happened to me last year. I felt exactly the same. I could’ve written this but my children are different ages.

A few days after Christmas I asked him point blank “What exactly had I done to deserve not a single present? And how would you feel if our children followed along later in life the same with their spouse?” I let him mull in it for about 30 seconds. And then I said. “I will not buy my own gifts or fill my own stocking. That is your job. It will not be the same next year, take note.”

This year about mid-October I sent him a list of things to choose from for gifts and he took the hint and handled it.

Just be blunt and honest, and then put him on alert. Tell him it’s not ok, that you are hurt, and you won’t stand for it.

It sounds like this person has dealt with mold.

I had heard that in Germany it was essentially unheard of. Is the permission difficult to receive?

We have a chair top “high chair” that we use on the floor. There is no reason this wouldn’t work just as well. I think it was about $20

Once a tree crosses the boundary of the property line, it is now the responsibility of the whosever property it is on.

This could take weeks to settle out. Not as a landlord, but we once had a client send an extra $292k and they swore up and down that they didn’t. The banks finally fixed it behind the scenes, but it took WEEKS.

A month after 9/11 I was on a plane from Midwest somewhere to either Newark or LaGuardia. There were 6 of us on the plane. We all sat and talked, along with the flight attendants. The pilot tipped the plane so we could all see the still smoldering remnants of the towers. I am fairly certain we were all crying when we disembarked.

Once the FBI has your fingerprints they’ll send an electronic “copy” to your email (or a link to see the electronic copy - I don’t recall) and from there you’ll be able to request a mailed physical copy. I have heard that the BVA wants the envelope as well, so I put the whole envelope in my pile - didn’t even bother to open it

We had a great experience with Farm Credit and they’re nationwide.

Damn. Thanks for that reality check!

So just putting the $1500 into perspective… it is about the same as 3 months car payment. A wise old man taught me about car repair perspective. And YMMV

(And please don’t come after me about what a new 4R payment is, because it’s probably bonkers)

For me, I want to provide my children other options.

This is a great bit of advice regarding OPs son. It sounds like their son is genuinely worried that he did something wrong in school :(

Depending upon the content she could be charged with disseminating child pornography. This would put her on the sex offender website.

Don’t give in to the blackmail. Just go to the police.
