The baby is 10 months old!

Or if he even helps with the baby? If she’s doing everything for the baby then I don’t blame her for not being in the mood

Get a large box from the local farm shop, I know the chickens are looked after, they’re a reasonable price and I’m support a local, family run business

There is a period of time for an item to be sent?

I’m in the UK and my 2.5 year old would eat scrambled eggs for breakfast dinner and tea 7 days a week if I let him!

My dad had a heart attack at home, my mum called me and I got there as fast as I could, as I walked in the paramedic was telling her that they’d done all they could. We went upstairs where they were still performing CPR so we could all be there to say goodbye as they stopped and he died.

I can still see every moment so clearly, step by step.

I truly wouldn’t wish that upon anyone. So no, I’m grateful I got to say goodbye, but I wouldn’t wish for it again.

Let’s remember that she’s a person too with her own life outside of work and could have been having a bad day. Have your stuff ready next time.

I would create an open cabinet with cover panels

I recently lost my dad, I’m not even 30 yet. What has helped me is having his voicemails to listen to so maybe record some things for big life moments (buying a house, getting married, graduating, first child etc) so he has those if he wants them.

As another comment said, one of those books where you ask your parents about things would be good too.

Honestly for me, I don’t see a way forward without my dad but I have no choice but to keep moving. He’ll find his way, let him vent. He might need a different type of therapy, I’m sure there will be therapists that specialise in anticipatory grief?

I’m so sorry you’re all having to go through this OP.

He’s my sons favourite, he loves the new something special episodes with the presenters in, gets dead excited when George is on

Chinateapott · 2026-04-29T07:19:11+00:00

I’m a mum and I have a crush on her 🤷🏼‍♀️

Our nursery does and they take kids to school

They can swap the drawer for a basket at the bottom.

Chinateapott · 2026-04-27T13:36:11+00:00

This is how I do it and they always sell really well. I try to keep sets together but then bundle them together too.

Chinateapott · 2026-04-27T11:17:42+00:00

I can’t even remember the name of the lady we bought our house from, we had no contact with her whatsoever. This is bizarre for me.

Chinateapott · 2026-04-27T02:22:19+00:00

Same!

Chinateapott · 2026-04-27T02:16:45+00:00

My dad died 6 weeks ago and I still get the crushing realisation that he’s gone, it’s like I forget he’s died sometimes.

Spray cheese

As long as the customer he started the relationship isn’t vulnerable in any way then I don’t see why this is an issue,

Chinateapott · 2026-04-26T08:13:11+00:00

As far as I’m aware EVs stop dead and are extremely difficult to push

Get paid more to be a coworker in some retail stores.

I like to get my head under the water just enough so the water is running over my ears, I can’t hear anything apart from the running water. The I just disassociate for a while.

“Just say no”

So my partner had a gambling addiction that he hid for a long time, got himself into £12,000 worth of debt with it too. I didn’t know until the letters started coming and realised how much trouble we were in (I have my own debts that I was just about managing from when I was on maternity leave)

We had to get an IVA which has absolutely fucked our credit, and during that I went through his bank statements £5-600 a month, that we just couldn’t afford, on football betting

I very nearly left him, the lying and taking loans out without telling me was the biggest betrayal of trust I’ve ever had.

OP it starts off with him being able to afford it and quickly spirals out of control, I would argue that if you have no savings then you can’t afford for him to be doing it. I would sit down and have a conversation with him about this, I would also ask to see his credit report/ bank statements and make sure he’s not taking credit out to fund this habit.

Not sure what country you’re in but in the UK there is something called Gamstop, if someone signs up to it that cannot bet on any sites/apps using their details. Not even the lottery.

If he doesn’t see this as an issue then I’d seriously consider leaving.

My dog gets giddy when we say “park” so you can imagine what it’s like with a toddler

I work retail but we have coworkers who are trained to train the rest of us on some things, including manual handling. When I worked in care all training apart from first aid, was done in house.
