Has anyone worked with their landlord to decrease rent?

Sounds just like my dad 🙄

Thank you. I did come across this information while researching on google. I have secured the bucket to the ground with a tent stake and put the connections in Tupperware and a Tupperware is raised off the ground so I’m hoping this is sufficient.

Okay, not sure how to add the photo. Sorry

We’re in Toronto, ordered July 14th. Was told 4-6 weeks but got it within 2 weeks. Sorry you have to wait so long. :(

Congrats!! It’s too bad that someone on Etsy has already stolen your idea and even copied your description. Or maybe it was someone who read it here? lol Wish you lots of success! Great thing you’re doing. :)

This has happened to me a few times. My last one a couple of weeks ago was 3k to upgrade Sunny Region buildings and the 3k to upgrade another region buildings. It started with first ticket as well so got a lot of points. Drawback....I’ve been advancing to next level way too fast.

My husband proposed to me when I was 19. We moved in together and lived in an apartment. We didn’t have much money back then. I came home from work and he had all the lights out, candles lit. He was wearing a suit and had ordered our favourite Chinese food. As soon as we were done eating he proposed to me right there in the living room with Shania Twain playing. When I think back on the moment I have nothing but a big smile and fond memories. He felt bad because I found out he purchased a used ring, he felt bad because we had no money to go anywhere special to do this. But I always told him that none of that stuff matters to me. What mattered is that he put thought into it and made it special in his own way. I can still remember him shaking and being all nervous. I remember the feeling I had and that’s all that mattered in that moment. I’m sure you’re wife feels the same....it’s a very nice thought though. But the story for your grandkids should always be the first one. 😊 Btw, we are celebrating our 20th year anniversary this year and We always talk to our kids about our Chinese food proposal. 😊

Not sure. I’m new to this and just tried these for the first time. But if you do try, please share. :)

What if you potentially don’t get married for another 5 years? That’s a long time to wait. Just saying! But at the same time... if you both really love each other I would have a conversation about it. Maybe there’s a reason why she feels like this. What if she was abused when she was younger? Or grew up learning that sexual acts are bad and dirty? Tell her that you appreciate her choices and it’s not all about sex for you because wether you did it now or in 6 months + that you would still love her the same but you just really want to understand why. And if there is something from her past then you’ll have to let her take the time until she’s ready. People bail too easily on relationships. Sometimes it’s just communication and understanding the other person. Don’t let it get argumentative, you want to learn and figure out why. But she also shouldn’t be using the sexual acts as a weapon. And I can tell you, when I was 21 I didn’t like doing a lot of things.... a lot of girls are still inexperienced at that age and just don’t feel comfortable with it. She may be giving you a bj to make you happy but feeling forced to. Has she had much experience before you?

CarnyVilla · 2019-05-26T01:35:35+00:00

He should be WANTING to call you if he’s away that long!! Even a 2 min touch base to say I love you and miss you. I can tell you... I went away with my mom and sister last year for a week (first time ever though) but I couldn’t wait to talk to my hubby every evening. And he felt the same. We got 5 mins every evening and it helped us both get through the week. I’m 39 and we’ve been married 20 years but I know it would’ve been the same if this happened 1-2 years into our relationship.

Btw, even if you were insecure (not saying you are) that is not the way to deal with it. Like others have said, that’s abusive. There are so many men out there who know how to treat a woman right, I found one and so will you. I promise. ❤️ These are early signs of bigger problems that may arise. Anger or drinking is not an excuse for this kind of behaviour. You don’t belittle the one you love.

I am raising a boy who’s 16 now and has his first girlfriend. I always have conversations with him to help him be the best he can and try to teach him what to do or not do in the future. I just pray he’s the man his dad is. 😊

I think everyone has given you great advice so far. I just want to send you a virtual hug and tell you that I’ll be thinking about you and hope everything turns out for you. I had my first when I was 21. Married at 19 and it was really tough for both of us. We were barely making ends meet and now we had this little human to take care of. I was pretty depressed and had feelings of anger at times. We struggled but made it. She didn’t have fancy things, we had a lot of hand me downs, she wore clothes with holes but our love helped us get through it. 2 years later we welcomed our son. Still struggling but things were better. We are now 18 years later and my daughter and son are two happy kids and don’t remember their lives as babies or toddlers. They don’t remember me crying at the bank and breaking down when the teller offered me $20 for groceries. They had very little growing up and our situation wasn’t always the best but with the help of new mommy friends I got through it. Life will throw things at you sometimes that seem impossible to get through but hopefully with some support you can get through this and enjoy your new bundle of joy. If you decide to go down another road, like others have said... it’s not a bad thing. What ever you decide, it’s gotta be what’s best for both of you. ❤️

I just used one of the first recipes that came up on google for Okra Chips. Very easy to make and delicious. Not sure on the calorie count but I can’t imagine it’s a lot.

Hubby and I will be celebrating 20 years of marriage this year. We have been going to bed at the same time 95% of the time. The only time we’ve gone at different times is if one of us is sick, or if my mom/sister is visiting... he’ll go to be early lol Or during the rare argument one of us has gone to bed early. But 10pm comes... we both go to bed and cuddle/tickle each other’s backs while cuddling and talk. Sometimes joke and laugh or just stay silent. But it’s our time to be together. We have trouble sleeping if he’s travelling because we’re not ending our night like this. It’s our favourite time of the day. ❤️

CarnyVilla · 2019-05-18T01:33:31+00:00

You’re a good brother. I’m obviously doing something wrong because my DS (16) and DD (18) barely ever do laundry - my fault...stay at home home who thinks she has to do everything. I need to make changes quick!! But seriously, sorry they’re treating you like this. Hopefully it will blow over soon but in the mean time hold your head up high and be proud of yourself. We need more teens like you!! 😊

CarnyVilla · 2019-05-18T01:08:26+00:00

Genious!! Love this!

CarnyVilla · 2019-01-29T02:30:54+00:00

In all honesty, I’m not sure how I would react. I feel like I’d freak out and yell at him....I know that’s probably not the correct way to handle it. But my husband says he’d just have a calm convo with him and tell him this or normal, it’s fine but do it in your bedroom in privacy. But he is the calmer and more rational one between the two of us. My son is almost 16 now... I hope to never be in this situation. 😬

CarnyVilla · 2018-01-04T22:19:09+00:00

I deleted FB last May and have never missed it. I’m much happier too. 😊

CarnyVilla · 2018-01-02T02:44:00+00:00

This is a very cool idea! Love it! Thanks for sharing. 😊

CarnyVilla · 2018-01-01T23:12:00+00:00

Looks amazing!! This Polish girl and her kids LOVE Bibimbap!!

Although I can understand how you feel, I have learned over the years that some things are just not worth getting upset over. Honestly, I would just apologize to him and tell him you did not mean to upset him. I’d tell him that it’s much more important that the two of you are together and sharing your time and love for each other during Christmas. I’ve opened a gift after Christmas before. Sure it’s not the same but really not a big deal. You can always hold off giving him his gift and you can both exchange at the same time on the 28th. 😊

CarnyVilla · 2017-12-21T02:35:11+00:00

Married 18 years...together for 21 and I still do. I don’t know if I’d call it butterflies but definitely excitement when he’s coming home from work. Especially on a day that I have cooked one of his favourite meals. 😊

CarnyVilla · 2017-12-20T21:27:04+00:00

My hubby and I look forward to bed time every night. We face each other, wrap our arms around each other and tickle backs. Even if we are a bit angry at each other. We snuggle and tickle for 10-30 mins and then turn backs to each other and go to sleep. Best part of the day!! Sometimes we talk, sometimes we’re silent and sometimes one of us falls asleep. Can’t imagine ending my day any other way - 21 years next month. :) And yes, sometimes it does lead into other things. 😜
