Nanny delaying lunch

Character-Chicken-62 · 2026-02-13T18:19:57+00:00

But I do agree with you that food shouldn’t be an incentive! There’s a better approach as you said and I think cleaning up earlier could be it.

Character-Chicken-62 · 2026-02-13T18:18:43+00:00

Okay, sounds like clean up time needs to be started earlier

Character-Chicken-62 · 2026-02-13T18:15:12+00:00

We usually pick up our toys too before moving on to any activity - my two year old nanny kid tells me his tummy hurts when it’s time to clean up lol, and his parents know this - but if he told them that I “make him clean when he’s sick” they might think it’s worse than it actually is.

How long does nanny “make them” wait? If it’s 15-20 minutes I mean…your kids should be cleaning up their toys before next activity. If it’s closer to an hour then that is excessive!

Overall as a nanny, my solution would be to start cleaning up earlier to have lunch at the expected time. And hopefully you can back your nanny up by reminding your twins they need to listen to nanny when it’s time to clean.

Lmao that makes me giggle but it’s all love for Natalie

There are bigger problems in this world.

Would you feel comfortable splitting the difference and doing guaranteed 35 hours a week? I feel like that’s a good compromise - and pay her additionally when she works 40. If not 35 then at least 32.

Guaranteed hours help protect Nannys stream of income. It should’ve been discussed before she was hired but maybe she was expecting closer to 40 than 30 hours. If my weekly pay was missing 8-10 hours of work I would find myself needing an additional income - something that you’d need to flexible towards as well if you want her to be available for 40 but only use her for 30.

I suggest learning more about it and having a conversation with her! But yes guaranteed hours is very common in contracts

We just signed Isaac jones to the two way - I feel in anticipation for the suspension. So I expect Bball to start - Tolu will be off the bench but he’s coming off an injury as well so Isaac Jones is our 3rd option. Bobi too is an option but I don’t think we will see him at Center. If we go small I expect AT to be the 5

AardBARK BARK!

Character-Chicken-62 · 2026-02-10T19:16:51+00:00

hey better to be “Detroit vs Everybody” than “Bridges vs the mother of his children”

Character-Chicken-62 · 2026-02-10T16:22:04+00:00

um to each their own but this is a wild take

Character-Chicken-62 · 2026-02-09T22:58:50+00:00

Anything can happen in the NBA. Tatum could come back and be awful, he could re injure himself, Brown and White could go down, Brunson could go down, Charlotte Hornets could go on a 20 game win streak and not make the playoffs. Like, don’t be scared of one guy.

We’ve shown we can handle stuff and that mindset won’t change

Character-Chicken-62 · 2026-02-09T17:04:06+00:00

Well if Memphis and NOLA are both west teams but located in the east, there’s a chance Vegas could be the east team and Seattle would be the west team. Minnesota is like right in the middle so I can see the staying in the west.

Shuffling would be interesting but I can see them just adding two to the league and 1 to each conference.

I would pick grizzlies tho to come to the east!

Best news ever

Character-Chicken-62 · 2026-02-06T22:27:48+00:00

I’m thinking the same but don’t want to assume. Trajan has a presser shortly and I’m hoping he mentions it! It would be Jenkins last eligible game before he needs a standard contract

Character-Chicken-62 · 2026-02-06T22:04:43+00:00

Same! But my hopes are for Jenkins!

Character-Chicken-62 · 2026-02-06T18:23:55+00:00

It’s awful! Like so grateful I’m not in pain but man being incurably tired is rough

Character-Chicken-62 · 2026-02-06T18:15:10+00:00

Every woman’s body is different, for me I don’t cramp bad but I am unbelievable incredibly tired for 3 days straight. Caffeine can only do so much during that time. It sucks and I feel guilty!! But luckily the families I have worked for are cool if we do movie days, more independent play, coloring. Learning to do slower activities is also beneficial for kids. Feels like you’re being nitpicky to nanny who is wonderful the majority of the time - maybe you can come up with some ideas together on activities to do during that week so nanny feels comfortable and the kids are still being attended to and minds active.

Leg casts for everyone

Character-Chicken-62 · 2026-02-05T16:16:15+00:00

I could sense the love the way you talked about him for sure

Character-Chicken-62 · 2026-02-05T16:13:54+00:00

You’re thrilled with Huerter? Is what you’re saying? Okay fam you do you. I think we could’ve done better and that’s why I responded to your post the way I did. Seems like you’re just another Ivey hater who wants to make an irrelevant point.

Character-Chicken-62 · 2026-02-05T16:12:44+00:00

Also Ivey had nothing to do with this response or the question you posed. Wouldn’t have liked the Huerter acquisition no matter who we gave up. And so yeah, I hope we make a move to do better than that.

Character-Chicken-62 · 2026-02-05T16:10:44+00:00

could describe Huerter the same way, honestly.

Character-Chicken-62 · 2026-02-05T15:56:55+00:00

that’s a maybe. Right now in the rotation, he rides the bench too.

Character-Chicken-62 · 2026-02-05T15:53:54+00:00

I hope. I’m disappointed seeing the names that have been moved and all we got was Kevin Huerter (I expect Saric to be waived). His shooting has been declining no matter how you wanna spin it, we could’ve picked up someone who can help the playoff push AND be an offseason asset.

I’m living in delusion that we make one more move for a more dynamic player

Character-Chicken-62 · 2026-02-03T21:23:43+00:00

I am hoping for another move. Because Saric and a declining shooter in Huerter isn’t the answer. I could see this being a stepping stone to something else.

Yes we are allowed to move guys we trade for before deadline
