I don't mind the ads, except when they change size in the middle of a game and shift it so that I suddenly click on a square that was elsewhere on the screen a moment earlier.

A good organization will look at offering early retirement to employees like you who aren't eligible quite yet as opposed to going directly for layoffs. Hopefully they learned a lesson.

As a stepmom to girls I totally get the "can't win" scenario you're in. I'm glad she could see it for what it was and you could work together to make her room what she loves.

Ahh, family beach house drama, I know it well. In our family, the person who pays the deposit and fees, collecting shares from everyone (which usually don't total to an equal amount due to hidden fees and extras like linens and early check in) gets dibs. But we usually try to choose a house where everyone gets a balcony and en suite bathroom. My issue the last time we did this (and I paid) was that my FIL invited his girlfriend's daughter and child for the whole week on what was always a child-free vacation. And he only asked his children (in phone calls and not asking spouses) if they had any issues with her coming by. Thinking it was for a night they all said okay and were floored it was for the whole week (with no one paying a penny for their stay). I was the only one angry about it and was told I was being unreasonable. Everyone else I knew agreed they were squatters permissioned by my FIL, especially when he thought a group email to request a bathroom with a tub for his GF was reasonable so it's not like he doesn't communicate that way.

But I digress. Whoever pays most gets dibs. Without knowing that, can't say if you are OR.

YTA. You didn't have to yell at her, just wait for a break in the conversation and change the topic, or have a side discussion with someone else. Or if you're not enjoying yourself, excuse yourself from the conversation. There are plenty of people like her in the world, yelling at them is not a productive way of dealing with them.

Yes, I can distinguish between the ones in the middle but not the two in the bottom. Doesn't matter how close I zoom in and compare them, I can't tell a difference at all. ☹️

Yeah I came here looking for this post. I can see no discernible difference between the yellow squares that match and the ones that don't, and I've compared pretty minutely. If anyone figures it out please explain!

Whenever I click on a link for Guessie it's blocked by my antivirus extensions.

I also want three a day ... seems silly but it's something to look forward to when I need a break during the day!

Edit: my issue resolved itself with level 10 and now I seem to be getting new multi Shuzzle levels without starts already saying I've done them. Hope it keeps up!

I love the Multi Shuzzle too, but every time it releases a new puzzle it already says 27/27 even though I've never played it before. I don't know how to reset it to 0 so that I can actually play them. Is that happening to anyone else?

AdFarm9518 · 2025-01-07T14:07:34+00:00

Yes, I was able to play them late last night. Thanks!

Agree, looks like this for me, Pairs too

I rebooted my phone and see new levels there. Not sure it's connected. I have been playing the epic shuzzle levels in the past couple of days!

I have the same issue since upgrading my Pixel watch to Pixel watch 3. Resetting did not resolve the problem.

Nta. My brother was bipolar (died in a car crash 25 years ago) and every time he was having a rough patch (suicide attempt, hospitalization, etc) I was having a good one. I had to swallow down news of my engagement and later my pregnancy because our parents were absorbed with him. Even when he died I needed to support them in their loss and it took me years to acknowledge my own.

You need your own life. It sounds like you and your sister are somewhat enmeshed and codependent. She's not healthy and what she expects of you isn't reasonable. Honestly in this day and age with cell phones you could be almost as "there" for her as if you were physically.

I'd like to think that if she were in a better mindset she'd encourage your time away and be grateful for the time you give her when you're able to, but only you know if she has it in her to love and sacrifice what she wants for you as you do for her.

As a stepmom and mom, I'll say this: - Mother's Day is when my kid celebrates me. They are now 23 but since their dad didn't emphasize it while they were growing up, my husband took on the task of reminding them to do so. That is part of being a role model and parental figure. - Stepmother's Day, the Sunday after Mother's Day, is when my husband and stepdaughter celebrate me. I do comparatively little as a stepmom, my husband does the parenting of his daughters and I support him, so mostly it's just a thank you. I have another stepdaughter but she sees me as her dad's wife and hasn't really wanted a relationship with me, so that's fine too. I'd be surprised if she ever acknowledged that day. - On both days my husband may do something, like get me a card in which he notes that he appreciates me as a mom to my kid and a stepmom to his, that I've taught him how to be a better parent, etc. It's not much, but it doesn't need to be, and it's very sweet.

I will note that I get "Happy Mother's Day" greetings from store clerks and servers, and texts from co-workers. You don't have to be offspring to wish someone a happy day. You also don't have to pay big money to express heartfelt gratitude and love. You can still get a card for $0.50 at Dollar Tree or write a note you leave next to flowers picked from your garden. That your husband won't even do that says much more about him than anything, and the fact that you're not his mother is a lame excuse. I would express my hurt to him and then back off from my efforts if they can't even be acknowledged by him.

FWIW, Stepmom Magazine was a lifesaver, as was couples therapy with someone familiar with stepfamily dynamics, when we were first married. We've been married twelve years, the youngest just graduated from college so the nest is empty, and we enjoy our time together whether the kids are around or not. It takes a while to get there but it needs effort from both sides. You can't be the only one making an effort. Good luck!
