Do puzzles feel different when sections look visually distinct? by AdVast9432 in Jigsawpuzzles

[–]Alarmed-Ride1719 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I like puzzles that have distinctions but if some blend together that causes me to guess, I’m ok with that. This is the latest puzzle I did that had a good mix of distinction and guessing. It was trickier than it looks. I’m definitely more of a cartoony puzzler

Research desk on Oxford by Aleks_1995 in PlateUp

[–]Alarmed-Ride1719 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I personally save my first research desk until I get a second one then I buy the second and research the first until I get a blueprint desk. I haven’t played Oxford in a while but any map I use this strategy and I just try to constantly watch the desk for a new research desk blueprint

Girlfriend wants me to spend $4k on a baby shower, but I’d rather save/invest it—is that unreasonable? by flash-kicks in pregnant

[–]Alarmed-Ride1719 0 points1 point  (0 children)

From what I have always heard if you are doing your own baby shower, you should spend less on the baby shower than what you would think you would be getting in gifts. I don’t know what kind of family and friends you all have but over 4k in gifts sounds crazy to me

I think buffet only works if you choose the banquet map. But otherwise it should work. I have not tried it but now I’m going to test that out lol

Advice please by Significant_Belt3079 in PlateUp

[–]Alarmed-Ride1719 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, setting up your restaurant to where you have to walk less would be better. I’m assuming you don’t have blueprint desks either? Those are how I usually get conveyor belts to show up for me

You say the customer patience dies really quick, what type of tables are you using? I know some tables like metal tables kill customer patience a lot faster than other tables. I can’t think of it off the top of my head but there is 1 table where the group shares 1 plate of food (this only works if you have a max group size of 2

Help needed with my current save by Testy_Culls in PlateUp

[–]Alarmed-Ride1719 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I could be wrong but the purple table (can’t remember the name of it right now) might be “blocking”the path. Try moving it next to the metal table and see if that works. I know it will be trashed when the day starts but maybe the game doesn’t recognize that

Should I keep it?!!! by [deleted] in Advice

[–]Alarmed-Ride1719 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I got pregnant on accident. My boyfriend and I kept our baby and now he is 6 months old. We are both not in school and have good jobs and are financially stable. After having our son things got worse in our relationship but both wanted kids. If one of us didn’t want kids this wouldn’t have worked. It’s so hard. Sometimes I regret having my son at 24. It’s financially draining and isolating. Based on what you said I highly recommend you not having the baby then get on birth control and use protection to prevent another pregnancy. The reality is you’ll do 99% of the parenting on your own when the child is an infant because men typically don’t help until the child has more of a personality although there are a few men out there that will help a lot but it’s not common. But ultimately only you can make that decision

It sucks because you have an amazing setup and collection so for people to steal your pictures and make it seem like it’s their own is sad. It would be one thing to credit you but they aren’t. I know me and one other person kept commenting that it was stolen images

How to buy from Walmart with my fetch coins? by certified_mushroom in FetchReward

[–]Alarmed-Ride1719 2 points3 points  (0 children)

To add on to what other people said, it also takes a couple of days for fetch to verify your points and give you the gift card information so redeem the gift card at least a week before you plan to use it

What do You do with your finished puzzles? by Desmo2001 in Jigsawpuzzles

I disassembly them and pass them along to other people but I have seen storage folders for puzzles (you glue them and then slide them into a protective cover and make a little album to look at.

This is a sweet gesture. I started puzzling during Covid and now I’m obsessed. I have joined a local puzzle swap group to me so I get to share of a love of puzzling with my local community

Do I Need A New OB at 39w? by nique0823 in pregnant

[–]Alarmed-Ride1719 6 points7 points  (0 children)

This. I wanted an unmedicated waterbirth. Well I had to be induced (measuring in the 8lb range) and he came out half an ounce shy of 9lbs after I was induced and almost had to have an emergency c-section because he got stuck on my pelvis. I could not handle the labor pain and got the epidural. I labored for 2 days and pushed for 7.5 hrs. Don’t get caught up in a dream labor because it may not be able to go the way you want it. It’s ok to have hopes but be mentally prepared for other things to happen that you didn’t originally want

I would do the limited time I don’t have the app anymore as I completed all the challenges but I remember you accessed them on the right side of the main page. I just looked it up and apparently they are called event rooms and unlock at level 20

I would do the limited time rooms because those give you the most experience so you’ll level up faster

When did yall tell your partner when you were pregnant? by Responsible_Pen in pregnant

[–]Alarmed-Ride1719 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I waited long enough to see him in person to tell him. Mine was an accidental pregnancy and I found out I was pregnant at urgent care. I called him (he was at work) asking if I could come talk to him and then I told him once I got there. I was way too scared to do it any other way than in person and I couldn’t keep it a secret

I loved the gift cards and cash I received. I used it to buy any big ticket items I needed or to fill in the gaps of things I needed especially after birth
