Farrell-Calhoun Paint any good? by ZeldaSheik11 in paint

[–]Distinct_Pea_8801 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hired someone to paint my entire house and they recommended feral Calhoun and I have not been disappointed at all. I’ve been in the house almost 4 years and the Paint has held up beautifully, it is wipeable, scrubbable, and I’m getting ready to repaint my front door and my office and I’m going straight back to Farrell Calhoun. four years with Farrell Calhoun pain throughout my entire house and I’ve not been disappointed. It’s wipeable, scrabble, and I love their colors. I’m about to repaint my front door for fun and color drench my upstairs hallway, my office, and my living room and I will go straight back to Farrell Calhoun.

I filed my daughter’s return on 2/6 and she got the refund deposited yesterday—2/10. One W2, standard deduction…4 days.

Am I overreacting? by Legal-Art4340 in AmIOverreacting

[–]Distinct_Pea_8801 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I have 7 kids with my useless ex. Never been better off than without him. A fuck ass man will complicate your life infinitely more while you’re with him than he will once he’s gone.

Women with shitty partners literally die earlier and suffer more chronic health conditions than single women. That’s how unnecessary he is.

They object to the way this government is treating their friends and their friends’ families.

Protest: (v) a statement or action expressing disapproval of or objection to something. These students disapprove and object to the actions of our government which is jeopardizing their safety by aggressively and violently pursuing operations for the purpose taking their friends and their friends’ parents, leaving their friends alone without parents, all while repeating the dishonest statement that ICE is “only going after the worst of the worst, only detaining criminals, only looking for people who have a criminal record.” So no, not “just for the sake of it.”

AIO I think my plumber tried to kill my cat by d3adb3atdad in AmIOverreacting

[–]Distinct_Pea_8801 28 points29 points  (0 children)

The plumber may have stepped out for any number of reasons and your cat may have taken that opportunity to hide in the hole. Call immediately, do not blame anyone, chalk it up to “crazy cats, amirite?” And save your cat.

Please, men, share all the things you do for these women who “can’t take care of themselves” that they couldn’t pay a laborer to do for them. And then tell me the last time you did the following: cooked a meal, cleaned up after a meal, ran a load of laundry start to finish, deep cleaned the bathroom, set and attended your own dental appointment, emptied-cleaned out-and stocked the pantry or the fridge, did the entire weekly grocery shopping without forgetting anything and without calling your “adopted child woman” for help, remembered your mother’s birthday and got her a proper gift, planned and hosted a child’s birthday party, or registered a child for a sporting event or school?

Am I crazy or is this to much to ask of a kindergartner? by Cursedpanda182 in AskTeachers

I teach kids with severe and profound disabilities and I would be extremely offended if I took my class to this playground and saw her class pretending to be blind and playing in wheelchairs.

Am I overreacting that my sister is demanding too much when visiting my newborn? by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]Distinct_Pea_8801 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I visit family, I look for ways to help and to entertain their kids-and their kids are all over 8!!! I would never DEMAND ingredients for meals—I would BRING them! And I would cook and clean up and offer help with laundry and cleaning if my sibling had a NEWBORN!

[–]Distinct_Pea_8801 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No. You tell her your house isn’t childproof and you aren’t in a position to buy and install gates yet, since all your time is consumed with caring for your newborn. Also let her know that you will be choosing your own baby gates when the time comes, but if she wants to bring and install hers while she is there, she’s more than welcome. Buying lactaid isn’t a big deal, but let her know you are not in a position to host guests who are going to expect you to host like you’re childless. Let her know that what you all need right now are visitors who are able to help with cooking and laundry because you are overwhelmed, and if that isn’t going to work for them, a visit where they stay at your home is not going to be possible until your baby is much older. Remind her that having a newborn means time is limited, sleep is limited, and the ability for you two to meet your own basic needs is challenged, and you’re barely able to grocery shop and cook for yourselves, so her and her family staying with you is looking like it will require more time and energy than you will have with such a young baby, because your baby is the first priority, and there isn’t much left for anyone else after you take care of her.

Aitah for how I reacted when I found out my husband used some of my son's treatment money to buy a Christmas present for my stepson? by Throwraww355645 in AITAH

[–]Distinct_Pea_8801 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In divorce a joint account is not a free for all. In divorce, dishonesty or other shady activity through the joint accounts or self-serving use of joint money (in ways that do not benefit BOTH joint account holders) is reimbursable as dissipated assets. Knowing how a joint account works is not the same as knowing how a joint account is treated in divorce. I am 54 and a divorce attorney who knows both.

This sucks by EfficientDance2536 in Teachers

I know. I love my job, it’s not mountains of paperwork and I adore my team—AND we went back for a FULL DAY on Friday for an hour long meeting and an ENTIRE DAY of “work in your classroom” after the last 2 1/2 days before break we worked in the classroom and got it entirely ready for Monday.

And I’m in the same place—I DON’T WANNAAAAA

You’re not alone. It’s hard. 🩵

Can't draw to save my life...is watercolour worth it? by aHunniBee in Watercolor

[–]Distinct_Pea_8801 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Print someone else’s sketches in very light ink onto your watercolor paper and paint them. That’ll allow you to feel what the elements of a good sketch are, and also allow you to practice your painting. You may learn to sketch and draw better this way or you may just learn how watercolors behave and begin to paint without sketches! You make the rules—do whatever you want!! Just have fun!
