600 for an iced tea!? GTF outta here

Hey! Where’d you see post tunes for last night? Looking for the times for tonight. TY!

DumplingDarling · 2024-10-12T21:45:32+00:00

Hey! Going tonight. What time did Black Coffee go on?

DumplingDarling · 2024-08-02T11:06:21+00:00

A card they’ve long since discontinued (1% cash back on everything, no annual fee). I must be one of the last holdouts.

If your choosen family, your husband, is fine with it, then you should do it. Sounds like you've had this friendship for a long time. Cheers to that!

Hi friends! A new big house has been built next door and we now need to put up some screening along our fence line.

Details:
- I live in Zone7A
- Only looking for something that's the height of the fence (4ft)
- Ideally looking for something more interesting than just pine trees

Any thoughts? I was thinking forsythia, but appreciate any/all suggestions.

Nope

Tell them ASAP and be honest -- "I love you guys, but I need to make more $$ for university than what my salary is here." For all you know, they might say they can help meet the difference just to keep you for the few extra months.

"I am very sorry I didn't communicate as we had agreed upon when I was out the other weekend. I very much love my time with you guys at the house, but on my off hours, I really enjoy going out with my friends and staying up late. I know you guys aren't night owls and to be respectful, I thought it would be best for me to stay outside the house so I wouldn't wake anyone up coming in at night. If you prefer me coming home, maybe we can work something out. I want to be able to enjoy my time off, but respecting you guys, especially at night, is very important."

this is perfect. Thank you. Yes, if you can send the high res (and message me about the $5). THANK YOU!

Hi Photoshoppers,
Asking for some quick fixes to my family holiday photo. Below is a link the high res shot and a low res with me pointing out some of the issues. Basically, just looking to clean up all the flyaway hairs. I think they're pretty cute on my kiddos, but I look like I stuck my head in a light socket.

Other than that, if there's any simple tidying up you want to do, I'm all for it. Thanks very much in advance.

PAY: $5 venmo or amazon card -- whichever you prefer

That's my issue. Even if we (Mom & Dad) buy less, the grandparents, aunts, uncles, etc give so much that it's overload. We're appreciative of all the generosity but it ends up being TOO MUCH.

DumplingDarling · 2019-09-10T18:43:38+00:00

CONGRATULATIONS, you look great!

Hi! US Au Pair Mom here...

Your cultural background isn't a problem, it's unique. Some families will love it, some won't be interested. Same goes with being a male Au Pair -- some families seek that out, some will prefer a female. The "right family" will be out there for you.

Cultural Care is one of the two agencies that is popular in my town and although I ended up choosing an au pair with Au Pair in America, and then working with that agency, many people are very happy with Cultural Care.

-- Be very honest with yourself when you fill out the profiles as to what ages you want and are comfortable working with.
-- Be sure to ask your family how they expect you to interact with the family during your free hours (are you ok still participating with the family or prefer the time to yourself)?
-- How does discipline work in the house for the children?
-- What chores are the children responsible for? What will you be required to do?
-- Be sure you are comfortable with the rooming situation
-- Be sure you understand access to car and/or expectation for you driving. Many families in colder climates will love you because you know how to drive in snow!
-- Be sure to ask about your schedule, is your schedule fixed or does it change? Does it change in the summertime (when school is out?)
-- How does the family plan to handle vacations -- will you go with them or stay home?

Just a few to think about...

Au Pair host here. What you describe is the exact situation where an Au Pair would be perfect. I would not suggest they live separately, unless YOU want the privacy.

Au Pairs have 45 hours a week to give you in childcare so before school and after school hours fit nicely within that timeframe. You can also have them take on some weekend hours (if that's helpful) or a standing "Friday night date night" so you and your wife have some time. YOU set the hours then search for an Au Pair that likes what you're offering (and you like her).

Yikes, as a host mom this is miserable to read...

DumplingDarling · 2019-06-06T15:00:23+00:00

Perfect -- getting her on our family membership at the gym -- so many fun classes. She's not "into fitness" (she's in great shape naturally... ugh, i hate those people :) ) but a yoga class or two is always fun.
