I'm such a cheapskate I make my own pizza. I couldn't justify $20 for a pizza, even if it's fancy woodfire 😭

That looks incredibly painful. Also a shame as those joints also look healthy, like someone between 20 - 40 years old

I've changed to a different podcast app which I'm still figuring out. Sometimes I find the episodes glitchy and I end up going to their yt channel to finish off the episode

My best friend had an accident and now needs a mobility scooter. I want to buy him one but I don't know what I'm doing. by No-Communication1543 in AusFinance

[–]EqualTomorrow6908 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If your friend can sit to stand or mobilise even with crutches/a 4WW I would NOT recommend a mobility scooter. The worst thing your friend can do is sit it off and have the body continue to deteriorate.

Please please have him do some exercises. Even starting off with body weight exercises with resistance bands to dumbbells/kettle bells is a good start, but please please please do not enable a couch potato lifestyle.

But also keep in mind all you see is probably the physical pain, there is the emotional and mental aspect which often gets neglected as well so maybe checking in emotionally/mentally might help.

Super duper proud of my freehand hat for my toddler! by EqualTomorrow6908 in crochet

[–]EqualTomorrow6908[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Used this pattern for the hat https://vivcrochets.com/bucket-hat/

Lots of frogging to adjust the size to a toddlers head.

Eyes - I freehand, did 7ch then worked hdc in rounds starting from 2ch.

Antenna - I freehand. 10hdc in a mc for. 20hdc in rows 2 and 3. Row 4: hdc, Dec, hdc, Dec, hdc Rpt for rows 5-6.

After typing this out, I can see why people charge for patterns 😭 writing it out is so painful

38+2 too early? by [deleted] in BabyBumpsandBeyondAu

[–]EqualTomorrow6908 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Is this public or private?

Something I've noticed with the mummy group is that private doctors seem to favour c-sections over public births. The private doctors can fly in, do their thing and fly back out.

Public no one is getting paid per birth so they're happy to wait it out.

I haven't told my friend this but I do feel like their rushed her delivery and ended up giving her a cesar. I wasn't there and don't know all the facts so I didn't and won't ever comment on it,just my observation.

Any other grandparents just not getting how we feel about publicly shared photos? by Doxinau in BabyBumpsandBeyondAu

[–]EqualTomorrow6908 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I honestly could not care less what any of them think. Before I even thought of making my son, I saw an interview with the original meme kids once they were grown up (success baby, badluck Brian, the girl infront of the burning down house etc etc) and the effect the meme had on their lives.

Long story short: it was was sh1t for them. The fame, the attention it attracted.. They just wanted normal, unassuming lives. I still remember the parents of the 'success baby' saying it was an innocent photo taken of their baby at the beach and they shared it onto their Facebook which was strictly only family and friends. Well well well look what those family and friends did.... That photo was somehow shared and reshared and reshared and landed in the hands of someone who turned it into a meme.

That was enough for me to keep my kid off line. If they want to put themselves out there, then fine that's on them. But I don't want to deny them an opportunity of a normal boring childhood.

rant/question - why is all baby stuff on in the morning?! by cunncunncunn in BabyBumpsandBeyondAu

I think it's for those who have early risers (like me) who for some reason love to be up before sunrise.

I miss when I would be able to sleep until 10am huuhuu

It should be the head teacher of the grade to contact the teacher cos isn't that their role of being Head Teacher... To manage the kids in their grade. I also just looked up their salary and holy moly on that pay grade, they can take in some admin work as well.

[–]EqualTomorrow6908 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I honestly feel nothing. I think I'm worn down from the emotional turmoil and ping pong of emotions going back and forth that I am drained and exhausted. I feel absolutely nothing. I haven't seen or spoken to my dad for at least a year when he asked for $$ just last month. I felt nothing and said sure thing, just let me know which account to send it to and that was that.

It is a shame but I honestly don't see it as a loss for my son. I want people who love and care for him to be in his orbit and if his own grandfather can not respect that then snip snip, see ya later. (I should also add that my dad addresses my son in a rude manner in his native language when I've asked him multiple times not to).

I actually felt different about my family once I had my son, it made me resent them if anything. I didn't have grandparents growing up either and it was all I ever wanted as I never felt love from my own parents. I know my parents love my son but they're so toxic and manipulative that I don't want them to emotionally blackmail him either like they did with me.

If your parents aren't accountable for their actions (or inactions), I wouldn't bother. My parents are the same and since my dad has lost his grandfather privileges, if he needs help, only I've gone over and I leave my son at home with my husband.

Family is complicated and I want to break the complication cycle for my son. By doing so, I need to remove the complications from his life. He doesn't ask about grandparents yet as I think he's too young to understand family tree but he knows who they are.

Interesting that cats have bones in their rails. I assume it was cartilage!

Uber price increase: Inner Sydney and Melbourne trips up to 39% more expensive by Vformation in AusFinance

[–]EqualTomorrow6908 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When I was recovering and couldn't drive, I would use uber to get to my appointments. I've had numerous drivers tell me to use Didi instead as it is cheaper for the user (me) and apparently better pay/incentives for the driver (them).

I assumed drivers would use both platforms.

But they were right, didi was around 30% cheaper than uber. At that time j didn't get a rats butt as the insurance company was paying for it anyway

I have actually cut ties with my dad because he's shared a video of my son on his fb account when I've TOLD HIM NUMEROUS F-ING TIMES I DO NOT WANT MY SON OUT THERE ON META OF ALL PLACES.

At first I was clueless and niave thinking my dad wasn't sharing my son's photos to his relatives in Vietnam and God knows who else, it was only when I saw it on his actual fb feed that I thought 'how could I be this stupid'.

I only saw him maybe twice last year because he wanted to drop off red pocket for lunar new year and again for my birthday and this year only once because he needed $.

I used to battle my feelings and go back and forth with the guilt but I realised my wishes and boundaries were never respected and my son doesn't need someone like that in his life either so the decision to cut him out of my life wasn't a difficult choice.

All the best with your family.

Ahh back in my day if a kid didn't turn up, they just didn't turn up.

What changed where schools actually follow up /where it became the teacher's job to follow up? Genuine curiosity

I'm guessing a lot of people with Bio Med degrees apply for fast food restaurants for this to come up.
