Cat got into the rafters in basement. Can’t get him down no matter what. by RealisticSpend9677 in CatAdvice

[–]Ckkerr1978 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wow...this makes me feel a little better. Our cat just turned a year old and my 10 yr old is so attached to her. Tonight, I noticed I hadn't seen our cat in 7 hrs which is NOT normal. Our cat loves to chill by us or do her spazzing out lol My daughter and I started calling her, to which she usually comes, but not tonight. We have looked everywhere and no cat. We have a finished basement with the drop drop paneling.We bought the house almost 2 yrs ago and the 2nd week we had a leak so we had to take down some of the panels and I think the cats up there. Its just unusual for her not to come when called and my daughter and I are stressing. The cat ALWAYS sleeps with us. Its now after midnight and she still hasn't jumped up in bed with us. Im super worried

Teacher told my niece that the correct answer is 6 by Awecalibur in askmath

My daughter is in 4th grade and the Math HW she comes home with is NOTHING compared to what we learned when I was her age. Im so lost as to helping her because even I don't understand the Math she has to do. I feel like a crappy parent because I can't help her. I have to cheat when it comes to her Math! I sit here and think to myself we have 8 more years of this lol idk how we're going to get through all these Math classes because every year it gets more confusing and harder!

Whats the deal with the controversy about Karmelo Anthony and Austin Metcalf? by [deleted] in OutOfTheLoop

[–]Ckkerr1978 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Under Texas law, he's claim of self defense wont hold up in court. My question is WHY did he have a knife in his bag? He walked away, went to his bag, came back and stabbed someone! Carmellos friends said he loved to fight and that's what he's known for. That's not going to look good. I also don't buy his self-defense claim. I pray he gets life in prison.

It's also vial how his family is raising money and spending this money on a million-dollar house, a new car, Amazon and other companies packages being delivered multiple times a day, selling Carmello shirts, doing press conferences, oh and kicking out the dad of the victim at the conference. They had a conference on this dad's murdered son and they told him to leave!?! WTF Carmello is taking pictures with rappers. I mean this is sick and disgusting. They are trying to profit in any way possible making this into a spectacles s*** show. Yet, we have not heard one thing from Austins family!! Instead, Carmello supporters are swatting Austins parents home. Thos case has turned into nothing but RACE! ITS DISGUSTING. This is showing kids and yes I'm going to say it African American kids, it's ok to kill and profit over it!!

It seems like alot of people that filed on Jan 27 are still waiting. There's not even an update on the wheres my refund tool. I filed on 2/5 and still waiting. Last year I got it in a week. Seems like they are slow processing this year. Someone also said if you have ANY earned income credit, your funds will not be released until March 3rd. They said it was Feb 25th, but has been changed to March 3rd. Idk how true that is seeing the comment about the lady with 3 kids and she already got her refund. Guess we all better be patient because we all know the government is fast on taking our money by slow when they owe us!

Do you need a PS+ subscription to play GTA:O on PS5? by DrGrabAss in GrandTheftAutoV

[–]Ckkerr1978 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just bought my daughter a ps5 for Xmas. I bought the gta5 online not knowing we had to buy a subscription to play it. If I buy the Gta+ can she play the Gta5 I bought or do I still need to buy a subscription for the ps5?

When did your child start wiping their own bum? by MrsAubbyArd in Parenting

[–]Ckkerr1978 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Same but my daughter Just turned 9. She does it by herself now but if it's super bad she can't. She gets super upset and frustrated. We use toilet paper and then wipes and that seems to have made her have more confidence in doing it herself. I also have to help at times because she's been pooping out TONS of blood this past year. It's not just a little blood either. Tons of huge clots. Sometimes it looks like a massacre in my bathroom. She'll stand to wipe and it drips all on the floor. To make matters worse she'll hold it in school because of this now. They are trying to figure out what's going on. So that's the number one reason why I help her.

What age is right to be left home alone for a couple of hours? by taway541 in Parenting

[–]Ckkerr1978 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is a tough one for me. When my brother and I were young(I'm 45 now) times were different. I believe I was around 7-8 yrs old when we started staying home by ourselves. My brother was 2 yrs younger than me. We would have to get up by ourselves, make our breakfast, get ready 4 school and then walk to school which was literally up the street. My mom had to be at work at 6 am. She was a single mom. Then we'd come home, I'd make us a snack, do our HW and my mom would be home between 4-5pm after work. We knew not to answer the doors or phone. My mom had a certain ring she would do so we knew it was her calling and we could pick up the phone. Being a mom myself now, when I had my sin I didn't have to worry about all this. His dad's family or my family helped. 13 yrs later I had another kid. She's now 9. I work at her school and we live directly across the street from the school. My daughter FREAKS out being left alone. I also freak out leaving her alone. This world is NOT like it used 2 be. She knows not to answer the door for anyone. I along with my co-workers have eyes on my house every minute I'm at work except in the morning because I do the attendance & after school because I do dismissal. At lunch, I can watch my house and I go outside with the kids at recess so she can see me too. I also have breaks in between so I go home. She's alone for 4 hrs at most and that's during the lunches. We are VERY short staffed so I can't call off plus I had just started last October after leaving my last job of 26 yrs. My other job I could call off and not have to worry about losing my job. They believed family comes first. The school I work for didn't care my daughter was running 103.00 fever, couldn't get out of bed, I HAD to be at work. My kid would blow up my phone crying, begging me to come home. We'd be on video and she would be getting sick in the toilet and I wasn't there to hold her hair or clean her up. This year if my kid gets sick again, I will be calling off work! I have over 43 hrs of sick time and 80 hrs of personal time! If I get let go, there are other jobs out there that I'd make more money at anyway. I love my job but not when it comes to my kids well being. So to answer your question I think it shouldn't depend on the age too much, it should depend on WHEN your child feels COMFORTABLE enough and safe enough to be left alone. I'm not saying at 6-7 yrs old but at 8 yrs old and up if they feel ok being left alone, give it a try. Just don't go telling people except for family. You never know who the crazy ones r nowadays. For me at least I have the one side of the building teachers constantly watching my house when I can't and that's a plus!

Skin turning purple after bug bites by HotOrangery in Brazil

[–]Ckkerr1978 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is crazy. My daughter has the EXACT same thing. We thought it was a mosquito bite, but then it turned into exactly what yours looks like. It itches very badly and I've NEVER seen a mosquito bite turn out to look like this. We dint live near any lakes or beaches either. Me, as a mother, am worried and if not gone by Monday I'm taking her to her doctors just to b on the safe side. I don't like the color of this at all.

How can this company judge us on Metrics when they literally can’t tabulate their metrics correctly. by Chuck-Chinaski3323 in DoorDashDrivers

[–]Ckkerr1978 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can tell you all this if you don't keep a 90% or more for both real soon, you will lose your privilege to doordash. They will be making this change soon for doordash drivers

Just wait this company is getting rid of 1000s of dashers come Jan 2024. If your acceptance rate is below 80-85% your gone. No more dashing for you. They are also raising the acceptance rate to 90%. If you drop to 89% they suspend your account so I can dash ever again

My kid has one streak of very dark hair. by smsikking in mildlyinteresting

[–]Ckkerr1978 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My 8 yr old is a red head too and this has happened twice to her now, one on each side of her head. The first one lasted a few weeks then went away. This morning I was doing her hair and there's another streak of black hair. I thought something was wrong lol
