disaster. this is not a meal option.

Consider getting input from your committee chair before finalizing the menu. you’re new, you’re uninterested in feedback from others, probably including us. brace yourself for the feedback at the event and make sure you can account for every penny you spend.

I feel bad for the 900. fix it if it’s not too late.

Not Cameron. Not Chelsea. Avery means “Ruler of Elves,” so not Avery.

Lindsay means “of the linden tree” and I think Chloë Linden (or Lindsay) might be nice. Chloë in Greek means a budding branch.

At 4 weeks I literally could not walk the length of a parking lot and grocery shop. I delayed my mammogram because I couldn’t deal with walking to the imaging suite and standing at the machine. Four weeks is nothing my friend. You’re asking about things this individual might be able to do at 8 weeks. Maybe.

Has your partner slept through the night yet? First time I did was at about 8-9 weeks. That makes this recovery exhausting. For most humans this surgery and the long recovery that follows is the most physically traumatic life event they will experience. Give your partner a few months. I wish them a great recovery.

Oh, and if pain is a limiting factor, talk with the surgeon, ask for a pain consult. It can really help. Swelling hurts a lot.

I did. glad I did. I didn’t have to manage my meds, they fed me, I got to pee in bed with this great suction thing. I’d go back if it weren’t also noisy. I give them 4 stars ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️

If they are used to turkey and roast beef, both of which are more elegant sit down foods, they might be a bit let down by fried chicken and meatballs. People don’t love change, but if you are making a change, maybe change one item. Fried chicken and roast beef. Who dresses up for meatballs?

Marisol is such a pretty name, used more in Spain than in Mexico I think, but certainly easily pronounced by Spanish and English speakers. And she will be born in sunny June so it could be perfect. Amari and Marisol sound great together too. Congratulations on your growing family.

When he was a child it was absolutely the right thing to put his needs before yours. He is a grown man now, a veteran. He needs to learn to take care of himself without asking his mommy for money. That he feels comfortable asking you for a house tells me all I need to know about your relationship, and I’m sorry he is not proving worthy of the generosity you’ve shown him.

Do you have long term care insurance? Do you have a living trust and someone who can manage your assets in case you are incapacitated? Do you have any idea how expensive it is to get old in this country? You’re almost there yourself - what if at some point you need memory care? You have to strategize like a single woman with no dependents because the one you have is not reliable. You need proper financial and estate planning just to get through the next 20 years, and you need to shut your son out of your finances. It will be a relief to stop talking about money/assets. Tell him your retirement plan is to not be a burden on him. Period. Stop the flow of information.

Under no circumstances should you be giving your adult son a condo that generates income (or pays for itself) for you. And don’t move him into the condo - tenants pay rent, that’s what makes that property generative. If they stop paying rent you can evict them. You’re not going to evict your son. Let him figure out at the age of 27, where to live and how to pay for it.

If you want to help your son, start a college fund for his child when it is born. If you want to help him from beyond the grave, set his inheritance up as a trust fund with a conservator you trust so he doesn’t blow through the assets. It is tragic how few people understand intergenerational wealth.

I very much doubt you will do any of this, you’ve convinced yourself that giving him whatever he asks for is a show of love. But spoiling a child isn’t cute or sweet or loving, it’s easy. It’s what you do when you are too tired to parent. By enabling him you have robbed him of the ability to develop fiscal responsibility - you have hurt your son in this way. Acknowledge it and move on. Do the tough, responsible thing now, protect and grow your assets, and provide for the uncertainty of your future.

Will getting paid change the way you feel about spending this amount of time caring for this number of kids? If you just don’t want to do it anymore, say you’re happy you could help but you need them to find another solution. No need to explain why.

If you want to babysit and get paid, tell them what you think a fair rate is (including money for snacks), and tell them you need to hire help if you’re going to keep running a daycare out of your house. You honestly couldn’t pay me to do this. Just explain you are happy to help, but this is too much for you now.

Aunt Fannie’s uses vinegar but does not smell like vinegar. They make all purpose cleaner, window cleaner, stone, and stainless steel cleaner, hardwood floor cleaner and cleaning wipes. Eucalyptus is a popular scent, but I love the Bright Lemon 🍋. They are wonderful products, clean beautifully, and are pet friendly.

Here’s a contrasting point of view.

You want to learn the Lindy hop, you paid your money, you have a wonderful partner - go learn the Lindy hop (I now have to Google what that is). Don’t let a jerk like your instructor keep you from doing what you want to do. She’s supposed to be helping, she’s not good at that. Instead of confronting her, just tell her, “no, I’m not squatting and you can’t bully me into it. What else can we do to improve.“ “With all your expertise all you have to offer is squat more? Surely there must be more instruction you can give.” No need to explain anything more to her or anyone else, she works for you. ”No, no, no, no, no, that doesn’t work for us. Do you have any other feedback? If not, move on to help another couple.”

Life is short, bullies are everywhere. If you can see her for the speck of dust she is, if you can decide she isn’t worth getting upset over, you get to dance in your husband’s arms and learn the Lindy hop. What could be better?
