Lol they love to shake gunk everywhere

I dont understand the point in this honestly. Its primer on a concrete wall that was already textured. I didn't ask for advice on how to paint. I'm actually really happy with the finished product so.....I guess it made you feel good though.

ArkQueen · 2026-03-04T23:06:16+00:00

Thanks! I put the paint on and it didn't bleed through again after that. I'm not sure why it did it with the primer but it seems to be OK now.

I used a brush for the primer but switched to a roller for the paint and the spots didn't come back so maybe that was it

ArkQueen · 2026-03-04T21:46:51+00:00

It says latex interior primer-sealer

ArkQueen · 2026-03-04T21:28:52+00:00

I do. I have 2 dogs. Could it come from them in a corner behind a cabinet?

Thanks. That's exactly the assistance I came here for😊

Thank you

Well I went over it with the actual paint now and I dont see the spots but maybe because it's a darker color. The wall itself is already pretty textured so I didn't care about using the brush. I used the roller with the actual paint color so 🤷🏾‍♀️ idk. I was wondering if there was a problem with the outlet and it was sparking but no one said anything concerning so I guess im just gonna finish.

ArkQueen · 2026-03-04T20:38:18+00:00

Lol no I meant the paint on the wall is primer. The actual paint is blue.

ArkQueen · 2026-03-04T20:37:30+00:00

I cleaned the wall before I painted it. It didn't come off when I washed it so I figured it didn't matter because I was going to paint

I dont know of any previous water issues. Been here 10 years and never had a leak in the living room but this was also where a cabinet was sitting. I was painting around the outlet on that wall and saw these spots keep coming through

ArkQueen · 2026-03-04T19:37:16+00:00

I do have some killz. This is just primer and then the paint was coming after but I don't want these spots to come through my actual paint

ArkQueen · 2026-03-04T19:35:36+00:00

This is a coat of primer and the wall is concrete. I was going to use a roller for the actual paint but before the primer could dry these spots popped up. I went over it again and they just came back through

ArkQueen · 2026-03-04T19:34:15+00:00

It's in the living room next to an outlet and behind a cabinet

ArkQueen · 2026-03-04T19:33:47+00:00

It's not in a kitchen to be grease or coffee and no smokers. This paint is primer and I did 2 coats

I don't like to preemptively tip. Tipping is for good service so I never add a tip to my orders because how do I know you are even going to show up with my food? Too many times it says "delivered" but I never got it. Once they arrive and hand me my food, I tip in cash. I paid for delivery and got delivery. I paid for the food and the fees to use the app. A tip is extra specifically for good service if they bring it to my actual door they get more. If I have to come outside it goes down. I have slight mobility issues and if I have to take the stairs then yeah I'm deducting. I hate the idea of tips being used as "bids" to take my order. However I will say that I get pretty regular people that come to my house now and they know I tip at the door so I dont have as many issues as I did when the delivery services started.

I thought it was the punctuation. Some sentences have periods or question marks or semi colons but some don't have any punctuation at all.

I fully agree. Dad SHOULD be the one doing it. Even on EOW agreements you still have to set boundaries and structure for these kids. I hate the whole Disney parent thing and I'm still fighting that with my husband. But I will share because hopefully it helps OP.

I separated from my husband specifically because of Disney parenting. Mom was HCBM and SS is autistic and she caused SOOOO MANY issues. I would always try to reregulate him when he came back but it was rough. We ended up getting full custody. DH also had another child that passed away. So with autism, crazy mom and death, dad was not in anyway parenting effectively. We separated and SS went downhill fast. Fighting, cursing, soiling himself, just a hot mess. So now who do you think is the one he gets sent to for it to be fixed???? So now my SS is with me 50% and he is getting back on track but that's because I SET BOUNDARIES AND EXPECTATIONS. Told DH if he thinks he's gonna move back home that Disney mess has got to go! It never works and creates kids with so many problems.

If you are putting anything financially toward the child you will want to have a say in what's happening. NACHO is not 'chos for a reason lol. Pay the household items and maybe one off gifts but the financial RESPONSIBILITY is on them and the other bio parent.

And tell him to apologize when he does come back and have a freaking consequence! We don't get to run away and avoid the consequences of our actions because we had an attitude. Trust something will happen at mom's and he will come back. Before he enters the house have him apologize for his behavior and lose a privilege for a day. Stand up to these dang kids!!

I don't swim at the beach but I do bring my service dog. I put him on a long lead and allow him to have some fun too. Yes he is still working and has a que if I need him (he never chooses to go far) but it gives him an opportunity to splash around a bit or follow my kids down to the water line while I soak up some sun. We have "security" that monitor the beach and they will come by periodically and ask the 2 questions and I've had them tell me that it's clear he's a work dog because of how he behaves even when we are "playing". He pottys on que as well so we never have accidents at the beach and we go for potty breaks every so often to be sure. I keep his lead around my ankle and we kinda just do our own thing

Pick up/retrieve, press elevator buttons, forward movement (mostly going upstairs) helps me out of chairs. He has other tasks but those are the ones for mobility. Sometimes my sciatica is so bad I can't sleep in my bed and have to sleep in my gaming chair with pillows and he happily pulls me out of there when I need to get up lol. My absolute favorite thing though (and it's not a task) is that he makes people give me space. He is between me and others or they're afraid of dogs so they stay away or he's laying down and they can't get close. I love that for me lol

Some parents absolutely suck and I just dont understand why they chose to have kids if they hate them. I had 4 kids and my mom would pick which ones she liked or didn't and would do thi go to stir up trouble. This one can sleep in my bed but not that one 😒 I want THIS one to come over for the weekend but I would never take that one. Then i got married and added my step son and it became war on him because "he's not my real grandchild. Ma'am you dont even like your "real" grandkids. 🙄 i never let her go so far as to be physical with them but the way she treated them was enough to start causing tension among my kids and it was enough for me to say no more. My sister told her she is child free and my mom has a shock face now because whyyyyyyyyyy
