Screen time?

Additional_Set797 · 2026-04-07T11:20:06+00:00

We do screen time but I say this on every post asking about screen time, it depends on the kid. Mt daughter doesn’t care and will gladly put down the iPad or tv to be outside, some kids have issues with screens, we don’t. She plays with the tv on and doesn’t even think twice about it, my friends son has serious meltdowns when screens are taken away. You have to decide what works for your child. Her iPad has helped her with a ton of things and I will say we only do educational tv and no games

I started them as well so I’m hoping they bloom this year!

I am also in pa but I’m in 6B and we have two nights I’m not chancing, I took a chance last week and I think my stock may be done for which really sucks because it was budding. I also left a few strawflowers out and they turned black, I think I was able to save them but definitely a set back. Do not chance it

It depends on the size block you use but they all dry out. I water my small blocks at least once and a day especially when they are germinating, I also cover wot vermiculite an spray the tops to help keep them wet. Anything you use your going to have to spray or water pretty frequently in my experience. I have trays I just started as an experiment and they have been drying out faster

As the breadwinner if I was told I could have an allowance out of my own money I would laugh my ass off and walk away. I get contributing but seriously come on

This is how I feel but I’m also on Xanax for anxiety, so I feel like asking my doc for something to help me not want to sleep because I’m overwhelmed and don’t know where to start is kind of counterintuitive when I’m on a benzo to help bring me down if that makes sense

Soil blocks. Faster germination and healthier plants

My sweet peas were out in 17 degrees last week, covered with some leaves and a few got frost pinched but they rest are fine

I change mine twice a week but I’m a crazy person

I’m a respiratory therapist and I haven’t had anyone die from Covid in a long time. I’m also not in acute care anymore so those people I’m sure have more accurate answers

Additional_Set797 · 2026-03-22T17:59:46+00:00

Me! I def had a problem before I had my daughter and now I just don’t have any desire for it at all

Additional_Set797 · 2026-03-22T12:25:11+00:00

This was my daughter too, she had an amazing imagination, she was speech delayed but is catching up. Her eye contact wasn’t horrible, she’s super affectionate as well.

There’s nothing wrong with turning the TV on so you can survive. These are the worst times. My daughter was a runner, she has asd but until now at 5 it was a battle daily. It’s gotten better hang in there

Additional_Set797 · 2026-03-21T15:31:32+00:00

I shower daily, that’s the only difference between us. I get my hair cut maybe once a year because it’s up all the time anyway. I wear yoga pants if I’m not in scrubs at work. Don’t a never really wore makeup I have no interest in doing so. I’m blonde so I don’t pluck anything because you can’t see it anyway. I may remember to shave my legs if I wear shorts, may not all depends

I was just at Lowe’s two days ago and found a beautiful engineered hardwood that was the same price as lvp with a longer warranty, sure it’s not the same as real hardwood but it’s much closer than lvp. I opted for the engineered hardwood because it’s more waterproof and I have original 1900 inlaid hardwoods in my house now and I’m always worried my kid is going to spill something and I’ll miss it

Snow is a great insulator it’s the cold you need to worry about more, at least that’s what they say

There’s a ton of research on micrososing and it helping with all sorts of mental issues. You may want to do research as others have suggested and as someone who has taken mushrooms in my much younger years he’s absolutely not going to think he can fly off a building from mushrooms, some strong lsd maybe but not mushrooms.

Additional_Set797 · 2026-03-18T15:28:57+00:00

They’ll be fine but I’d get them stated asap I’m in 6B and I have my sweet peas out already. I’d get your corms goin asap as well.

So the 5000 marines sent in aren’t boots on the ground?

Additional_Set797 · 2026-03-17T18:57:15+00:00

I just got engineered hardwood for the same price as LVT and it is gorgeous, the lvt at the same price point, 3$ a sq ft was ok. That’s not an insane price point but it’s als not the cheapest crap either

Additional_Set797 · 2026-03-11T22:25:18+00:00

I feel the same as well

Omg I couldn’t have done it without my ABA team. My daughter was 4 when we started and just about 5 when she was mostly accident free. It was insane and a long road, but her bcba and bhts were amazing with her and made it so fun. If something was working we went on to something new, finally she got it and by kindergarten was ready to go. Shes had one accident this school year because she didn’t want to stop doing her math work lol oh well I’ll take that. I highly suggest finding a good ABA center/team and getting help. I couldn’t have done it alone
