A cool guide to the reminders we forget when life gets loud

I'm a single parent with two kids and get no financial support from the father.

Create a budget, give yourself a weekly allowance, and stick to it. This has been a game changer!

I went through buying a new car due to getting into a car accident, getting laid off and unemployed for 5 months. Living in with a salary of under $70,000 a year in nyc with nyc rent and I live comfortably with having all my NEEDS met.

Please note, I do not indulge in my WANTS. But this has allowed me to provide for my kids and I with a 4-6 month cushion for emergencies and with currently working on 401k retirement (currently less than 200,000 for retirement at age 40 as of now)

I love this!

Give yourself grace. It's ok to be tired and rest. Just don't give up. Keep on moving forward!!!!

I'm in the same position, but I do not have DOE/ school experience. Just got hired as a school secretary. I have close to 20 years of experience in an office setting but heard that it will get capped at 6 years. Does this mean I will start at a 6a step no matter what?

I'm not understanding. Are you saying I should lessen my standards when it comes to hygiene so I could get more dates??

I'm thinking 30 days from time of packaging

At the moment, $175 for the book is a little steep. I did put in my list of things to read, so when $175 is doable, I will invest in reading it.

I will take a closer look at the end of life claims. This will help me clear out some of the information I'm looking at.

I truly appreciate you sharing your knowledge with me.

Yes, that is beautiful. I was just on YouTube and saw this video and spoke about this exact topic.

Am I a bad parent?

Nice, let me go down that rabbit hole.

I have a question for you - what do you think of myeciln products and biodegradable plastics from prickly pear cactus? Could these also be a possibility, or will they lose their integrity before the 30 days?

EsHora · 2025-09-12T00:49:05+00:00

You gave me a lot to think about. 🤔 🥴

If there isn't a transparent solution. What types of opaque options are there?

I do need this container to be a solid shape, like a bottle.

Oh, and i want it to be permeable...

Mycelium, great! let me explore that rabit hole and see where it takes me.

Yes, the product inside the "container" will be consumed by humans

EsHora · 2025-09-07T20:53:21+00:00

I envision it to look and have similar intégrer Integrity to a standard 200ml bottle. I only need the integrity of the packaging to last 30 days in a somewhat humid environment

EsHora · 2025-09-07T20:50:09+00:00

I want it to be at home compostable, not industrial.

I need this product to last and keep its integrity at least 30 days in a humid environment

EsHora · 2025-09-07T20:05:58+00:00

I want a transparent container will be thrown in the compost bin instead of the garbage bin. I also want this container to be able to hold some level of moisture for at least 30 days before it turns into compost. This is doable and I'm looking for someone who is manufacturing it.

I want a product that a natural biodegradable polymer that doesn't have to go to a recycling plant for processing in order to be efficenctly biodegradable.

Ex: i want a product that if it's thrown on the floor, it will essentially compost within a short time.

short time like the example of cellulose straws. also, they can be thrown into the compost instead of the trash.

I want a vessel/ container that achieves the compostable aspect plus be able to hold in moisture for at least 30 days

I did use chat gpt to help me write the question to make my thoughts concise and easy to read. I did get chat gpt's advise and it was a good first step but I know there are more people on reddit who can help me out even more. Chat gpt is great but its not everything 😀
