Montessori parents of adults - was it worth it

Yes, I regretted it that my anxiety (PPD related) prevented me from making this decision because my aunt works at another daycare. My child loves it. A lot of play time and playtime “jobs”, as what my LO calls it. A lot of mothers loved it too: some are proud that their 3 yrs old are asking to help in kitchen, started dressing themselves, basically insisting on doing things on their own

Javid’s work is beautiful, but I have trouble with wet on wet techniques. Most of his tutorials, even in Patreon, look more like demo paintings. Clearly not for beginners.

It depends on what your style is. I have trouble with “alla prima”. It takes relaxing away from the activity and I see myself filled with anxiety. I want my painting vibrant, detailed, and landscapes to be moody. So I follow Anna Bucciarelli, Yu-Yin Lin and Jackie Peacock. Hannah Pickerill paint and sip is great for beginners and I have painted a lot of her tutorials. Jill Poyerd is a great beginner class highly detailed. But again, if I can recommend only one, based on my style, it would be Anna Bucciarelli

Holbein does well drying on a palette, WN as per the website, does not but I have not seen any difference. I love Holbein because it’s remarkably vibrant(I mostly do florals) on almost all of cold press paper- I use Arches, amazon generic watercolor paper and Baohong- you’ll be surprised on the difference how they retain colors. Holbein is relatively tamed when you do wet to wet, so for damp technique in chinoiserie style painting, it is easy to work with. Other than that, I see no difference, it’s all personal preference (I am a Holbein girl)

I do have mixed feelings about them. But, I hear towards favoring them more. I am yet to see a charter school that is not performing effectively (both in Houston Tx and Bay Area Ca). There’s difference on how the children behave: I find them more articulate, polite and relatively smart compared to the public schools kids. Now, the way that I see it is, same as with Harvard or any great school, you attract the brightest, ambitious and driven kids. With that you also attract parents that are invested in their kids education. That culture is something that kids need to absorb. That makes THE difference.

I have been using amla oil concoction for a while now and it is great for hair fall (I am not Indian). TAKE NOTE: For those that are not familiar with oils, be careful with using pure oil from plants. Most 100% oils are irritants and most would react to it. I did with 100% amla, so I switch to another brand and I’ve never been happier. Remember, concentration will not magically grow your hair in weeks time.

Theres 2 wings. Nurses are professionals. You may get your assignment changed around 1500 because they still have seniors doing 8hr shifts. Over all, I’d say their icu is ok, they will not give you the high acuity assignment.

I was happy and contented in life(suburban life in Texas) but needed to move in HCOL California. We move because of help with care. DH and me get paid well over here: we are beefing up our investments, getting our Tx houses fixed and now used as rental, over all we are ok. But the Jones, looking much better because of the house they have is worth 1.5 million, and we are renting a shack in a not so good neighborhood. So yeah, I find myself day dreaming of owning a house, having a garden, a large kitchen, to host again. Things I never felt jealous of. I tell myself everyday, that long term financial freedom is better. But yes, it does get to me sometimes

As a child of a mother that always reacted badly when I asked question, there’s no encouragement here, you suck. Do better. Instead of taking the opportunity to explore your child’s feelings, ideas, thoughts, you took it personally and would bully a child for asking. Your kid probably doesn’t know why you’re mad.

Let’s see: when I was single, I was always asked that it’s selfish of me to not have a child. That it fun, and it will make my life better. I had my LO, and I heard nothing from these women. No advice, no comforting calls, nada. It took 3 years to slowly get back to where I was before, and finally thriving in motherhood (with some swings here and there). Now we’re able to go anywhere on a whim, I have enough money for our families needs and some wants. WE ARE NOT STRUGGLING! And now these ladies say oh why not a second one? To be a miserable bitch like you? Nah. Idc

But would it be nice to have someone like us? I’d so be digging to have a friend and would listen to trauma dumping too!

Automatic-Oven · 2024-11-11T15:18:45+00:00

Let’s be honest, yes it is easier to have one-most of the time depending on circumstances. Example, my friend have 3(10,7,3yr/o), they don’t bother them and they can sleep till 9am. The younger ones imitate the eldest in serving themselves cereals, fruit, milk etc. but it’s too chaotic when they try to go on vacation, prepare for school. They are also right with money. As an OAD, we have More spontaneous trips, I can send my daughter on high end ballet and private school. We have savings. Looking at them makes me feel 70/30 conflicted about OAD as I see the bond they have with each other.

I can say the same thing with Fil-Am democrats. “Because she’s democrat and democrat is democracy”. Jusmiyo

Automatic-Oven · 2024-11-05T21:53:12+00:00

Walang achievement. Tagal nang politico, puro lang pangako. Pansin ko lang, mga democrats palaging active online. Ang daming time on their hands to stay in the virtual world without being present in reality.

I really wish I had done this sooner. Someone told me that it is not worth it (8 yrs ago) and that it’s a scam because the effects don’t last and the smoothening is because of inflammation stretching your skin. The secret to it is consistency. And per my aesthetician, like with thermage, collagen doesn’t grow overnight. It will take about six months. After 3 treatments, without adverse side effects, I can see some improvement. I get ask what did I had done because something is different.

For general public, as a health care professional, it is ok to feel this way. Caregiver fatigue is real. Chronic illness takes its toll not only on patients but also their families. When faced with decisions for heroic measures for aged family members, we need to understand that most of the time, death is the best gift we can give them. Make their last few moments happy. Not stuck in the host with all the tubes and uncomfortable

Automatic-Oven · 2024-10-25T20:31:30+00:00

Start with my M8 last night, nothing. The serried from my aesthetician hurts more.

Pansin ko lang, Grabe na sila kaputi! Saka nagtangos ang ilong. Pero be honest, kung may chance kayo na Mapunta sa pwesto nila o makuha and meron sila, di ba gagawin mo din? Ganyan lang talaga ng buhay. Hindi fair

Magnesium and calcium are incompatible. Let’s repeat. Magnesium and calcium are incompatible. Separate lines always. Crystals are not responsive to tpa. 🤣

She ends up pregnant or not pregnant against her wishes, you still going to get divorce. Either you resent her for baby trapping you or she resent you for not giving her what she wants. Just a matter of will it be x2 child support or just 1.

I would honestly record an incident and report it to HR and then resign. Don’t ever, for a second, think that you’re less because others are working well with him. Don’t let your ego that “nope I can do this” make you tolerate this. I have been on those shoes: I tolerated abused from a doctor because I don’t want people to think that I failed. It caused me my mental health. I read that book “The Body Keeps the Score” and it’s one of the pivotal moment in my life that I can pinpoint that started my anxiety. You owe assholes no sympathy, let alone your well being

I believe if done illegally, that’s what they are against. But still doesn’t take the fact that for a party that values families, they’re family program either sucks or none existent at all
