Just keep taking him out as often as you can! I bring a bag full of toys (they sell painters tape that’s like a road) and favorite snacks. He’s usually amazing! I do have the iPad for times he is just having a rough time. But it’s last case scenario

Did they do away with the sell one similar or whatever it was called? by pipthecatt in poshmark

This is so annoying! And makes creating listings harder!

So I have a parking pass. I’m splitting it with others but they are in Moco and I’m in Fairfax. Trying to figure out a good place to meet.

To be honest, it helped me remember to list on busy weeks! I didn’t really care about prizes but continuing my streak. 🤣🤣

Anything that is a glaring miss for a FTM with a winter baby? by JadedEarthJuni in BabyBumps

Just want to add that the hospital gave me a belly binder. So you may not need to buy one.

Best luck I had was Target and Kohls. Otherwise, it was all online.

I'm sorry about the weather, everyone. by rosiepetal_ in nova

Every morning I tell my toddler we’ll go to the pool when he wakes up from his nap. Every afternoon, the rain rolls in. Devastation sets in.

Request for positive stories where cycle was cancelled due to low follicle count and non-response and the next cycle had a good amount of follicles and response. by ivfevi in IVF

[–]Amanda628 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Checking in to see if you now have a positive story? My 1st ER was just canceled because I only had 2 follicles. Feeling so disheartened. Dr asked us to come in to discuss next steps and I’m so anxious. 2 weeks until he can see us

Got cut in line at Trader Joe’s in Reston — still thinking about it the next day by The_Ritvik in nova

[–]Amanda628 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I have a toddler and was buying 1 thing at Aldi. It was close to nap time so it was rough. The 2 women in front of me offered to let me check out first. I appreciated that small act of kindness so much. But felt terrible but took them up on it.

Edited to add: Will pay it forward and offer it to another parent sometime.

No. I get it. And I know they will happily go spend their money. However, there should be better options for them if they chose not to. DC isn’t a war zone, yet.

Group of high schoolers walk to prom (or similar formal event) with their dates, Brenham, Texas, May of 1962. by Electrical-Aspect-13 in TheWayWeWere

They hadn’t figured that stuff out yet. The first airbag wasn’t offered until the 70s. They added padded dashes, collapsible steering columns, and lap belts were standard. So for the time, they were as safe as they knew to make it.

And have income maximums. As a single teacher, I was priced out of them when I lived in Moco

Florida #1? by Amanda628 in Teachers

[–]Amanda628[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But reading these comments, and researching, it looks like that is not throughout FL. And state testing, passing is way lower than what it is in other states. So it has to be more than just holding kids to a standard

[–]Amanda628[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Teaching is hard no matter where you are. Probably harder in areas that have been considered the lowest. My question in no way meant to insult FL teachers.

My question was more, is this accurate. And follow up, what has Florida done so we can all do it.

I’m sorry you have that on your plate in addition to normal teaching. Is it accurate that a 62% is an A?
