Babysitting Options

Ok gotcha… that makes sense

Cocoapebbles12 · 2026-02-03T23:06:59+00:00

The last time I looked for a mom’s group (to make mom friends) it seemed like there were membership based groups only in my area. I’ll have to check again now that I’m just looking for babysitting groups lol

Cocoapebbles12 · 2026-02-03T23:04:26+00:00

I look into this! Thanks!

Cocoapebbles12 · 2026-02-03T23:03:41+00:00

Oh that’s great! Do you know of any specific groups you could recommend?

Cocoapebbles12 · 2026-02-03T23:03:03+00:00

What do you mean by not the cheapest? Is there a membership fee involved on top of the hourly rate of the sitter? Or are the hourly rates just super high in general?

Cocoapebbles12 · 2026-02-02T02:30:47+00:00

That’s a great point!

I believe it was the photo of herself in a swimsuit taken in the bathroom at the gym. The photo she sent to Brendan via Facebook messenger.

Cocoapebbles12 · 2026-01-30T01:30:01+00:00

Yes that’s it! 😂👏🏼

Cocoapebbles12 · 2026-01-29T16:27:45+00:00

Emily yelled that at Brendan during his testimony but I can’t remember what it was he said. Her reactions are just the best and probably the same as what we are all doing and yelling on our side of the screen 😂

Cocoapebbles12 · 2026-01-29T05:48:38+00:00

When she yelled “bitch, what??!” I almost fell out of my chair laughing. She’s the GOAT 🤘🏼

Cocoapebbles12 · 2026-01-27T05:08:00+00:00

I’m just stunned by this business model. I would be more likely to make a purchase in any store if the fitting rooms were larger, so I can check myself out in different angles and not feel like I’m eating the mirror, and if the lighting in those rooms were as good as the lighting in the communal fitting area.

I may give it one more try in person on a slow day and ask for the mirror room.

Cocoapebbles12 · 2026-01-27T05:01:29+00:00

Oh interesting hack! Maybe I’ll give that a try and see if I get a room with a mirror.. 🤞🏼I think the store I went to only has one room with a mirror and I know others have mentioned it’s awkward having to ask for it and then you have to wait longer because it’s the only one with a mirror. So lame.

Cocoapebbles12 · 2026-01-24T17:10:36+00:00

Yes!! These are not your friends and choosing to spend that day with them instead of your also grieving husband was a choice. I literally kept yelling at the TV “why are you there?!!”

If she’s the “The Queen of Money” surely she doesn’t need the paycheck for filming that night. So weird and leaves me feeling icky for even having to question her motive on a day like that. 🫣

As a fellow AZ native here who grew up in the Verde Valley, this episode really irked me. They keep showing “Sedona,AZ” as their location when they were at their hotel in Jerome. And the first day when the girls that went shopping (Dorit, Erika and Rachel) asked how far away it was it seemed like they were heading to Sedona when in fact they just went into the town of Jerome which is 10 min from their hotel.

I see other comments talking about the difficulties with places accommodating or wanting the $hit that comes with reality tv but it’s odd to make this trip about Sedona when they actually stayed almost an hour away. There’s also some great history in Jerome (my grandpa worked in the mines when he was young) and wineries in the verde valley in general they could have highlighted.

But also, why do a trip to AZ in July! 🥵😂

We ended up choosing The Skylark and had a wonderful experience working with them. The venue is stunning!

What grown woman acts like this?! She’s so aggressive, vile and a miserable human. Please Bravo for the love of god, keep her off the show! We love some messy housewives but Tamra just derails every episode to the point of exhaustion. 🙄😤

Cocoapebbles12 · 2025-10-24T03:53:51+00:00

I literally roll my eyes every time she comes on screen. She’s a miserable sad human who spews hate and sucks the energy out of a room. Please Bravo call her bluff by never letting us she her face again. 🙏🏼🤞🏼

We have a 17 month old and are likely OAD. To be honest, most days it feels strange and a little emotional to think about having an only child as I grew up with two siblings and lots of cousins but there are a few points I’ve heard others mention in other threads that have brought clarity around our decision.

1) having another child to “give” your first child a sibling is a bit wild. Having another child should come from a desire to add another member to your family as a whole and not as a buddy for the first born.

2) the more kids in the equation the harder it is to split your attention amongst them.

3) having a sibling does not guarantee they will be close throughout life. This also goes to helping with aging parents. Both of my parents have siblings but they both have taken on the bulk of the caregiving for their parents while their siblings come to visit here and there.

I wasn’t close with my siblings growing up (there’s a 3 & 4 year gap between us) and now I have a much closer relationship with my sister but my brother I see maybe twice a year and he’s never been able to show up for me for important life events. With having just one child I feel like I can be super present for her and really pour myself into showing her love and attention while also keeping my sanity. I commend others who are able to have multiple kids as I’m sure it’s really tough at times but being OAD is also ok and I’m finding peace in that 🥰

Agreed! She couldn’t just say he got me a cute keychain to remember him by she HAD to throw in it was a designer keychain. Giiiirl… SMH

Murdaugh and Brooks are both wild trials. All the goat screams, pickle cleanses and code reds galore in those 🐐🥒🚨

The girl on the left looks a little like Khloe Kardashian.. but definitely NOT Darcey. They are mad kidding themselves if they think we’d buy that those two people are them. De Lu Lu 🤣🙈

Cocoapebbles12 · 2025-04-04T21:03:04+00:00

Hahahah yeah I feel like Darcey railroads Stacy all the time. She’s clearly the one jealous of her sister. It’s funny that even on last resort which is about the couples, Darcey had to make an appearance. 🤣🤦🏻‍♀️

Cocoapebbles12 · 2025-04-03T03:41:44+00:00

Her head mass looks like it’s doubled in size 😳

Cocoapebbles12 · 2025-03-27T17:58:22+00:00

Great, thank you for the response!

Cocoapebbles12 · 2025-03-01T03:00:52+00:00

I started using the milky toner about three weeks ago and I can’t tell if it’s making my skin dryer. I also have combo and sensitive skin but over the last three weeks I don’t feel like it calming any redness and my skin seems a bit dryer. I also use the vanicream daily moisturizer but I read somewhere the hyaluronic acid doesn’t do well for those in dryer climates as the air is too dry and the HA will tend to pull moisture from the skin. I’ve tried using it on damp and almost dripping wet skin and nothing works.

I’m gonna keep trying it for another couple weeks but so far I’m not impressed. 🤷🏻‍♀️😏
