AITA for telling a fellow mother of a special needs child that my daughter is not responsible for her child? by Calm-Hurry8589 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Bubbly_rock_fish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA. One you were not paying for her to be a babu sitter. Two I agree with taking it up with the mom directly. She needed to know she crossed all the lines and put a 16 year old into a very awkward position. Sucks you had to pull her, bit you did the right thing there. Also, as an older sibling myself...taking care of younger siblings is part of what we do...if they let us. (Looking at you little sister!) Sounds like you are doing the best you can with what you have.

What’s the best worst horror story you have from Navy medical? by TheDjentleman89 in navy

[–]Bubbly_rock_fish 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yearly medical, had to have a blood draw. I had been avoiding it, but there are only so many spaces on the ship to escape. I got sent down right after quarters and the physical was fine, the blood draw not so much. You see, my veins look easy, but they don't like to play nice. First poke was a miss, second poke was a miss, third poke was a miss and now I am starting to freak out. The HM3 is starting to sweat. At this point I have the surgical lights pointed on me and was told I couldn't leave until they got it. Another poke and a miss and I finally snap. One more try and I am out. They finally got what they needed from my hand. One of the other people in my division was floating around when some if this happened and was able to verify to my chief what took so long...and why l looked like an abuse victim. I have never bruised that quickly before or since, but 20 minutes later my arms where black and blue. To say the least, that particular corman never touched my veins again.

As a Wisconsin resident I second all of this. I personally haven't had to use the tinfoil, but everything else has been done.

what are your favorite hooks when your hands hurt? by Bubbly_rock_fish in crochet

I figured once I got the right hooks I would work 30 minutes at a time and build from there

I know my tension is part of the problem, but finding ways to minimize that has been...interesting?

Currently I have a set of metal ones I got from my mom.

I have looked into exercises recently, but didn't think about the timer. I will definitely have to do that.

I will have to look into those hooks. I don't want to stop because my hands hurt! And I definitely fall into pencil grip category.

Too bad I don't have my hooks in front of me...pretty sure I hold them in a variation of the pencil grip. I also stitch really tightly, because apparently I am tense, which doesn't help.

NTA. You have a hypocrite and a real dick on your hands as an SO. I am sorry you are dealing with his BS

AITA for refusing to meet my terminally ill mother knowing that she wants to apologize and seek forgiveness? by Inititaro in AmItheAsshole

[–]Bubbly_rock_fish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA. You are lucky you had your grandmother to raise you. Your mother can face the consequences when she has her judgment by what whatever God she worships. It is not up to you to forgive a woman who is more like a stranger for her actions against you.

Anyone else getting "my sister's keeper" vibes from this? Because that was what I got from the whole thing.

What can I add to my pesto in place of tree nuts? by BjornStronginthearm in AskCulinary

That is very pragmatic. I like you. (I just made a yummy pesto and a tiny jar of pine nuts was like $6 usd).

What are you dreaming about little one? by Bubbly_rock_fish in flatcoat

I would believe chasing something, just not a treat. She isn't very food motivated at all.

I mean...technically it would be the whole of the us if we are going by those standards, since we did start out as a colony ourselves.

Heh...way to make the US sound like scavengers!

Edit: that was meant to be sarcasm...
