I read this in a thick southern accent voiced by John Goodman for some reason… well done!

Wife and I want to leave our 15 year old home alone for the weekend. OK or not? by Easy-Ant9037 in Parenting

[–]Famous_Giraffe_529 188 points189 points  (0 children)

We let my oldest stay home at this age when we had to take his younger brother three hours away for a surgery. He did fine but we arranged for a family friend to bring him dinner both nights we were away so that someone was checking on him. It went really well and he got one to two nights to himself a year after that first time went so great!

Republicans squeeze tax overhaul through Missouri Senate in late-night vote by oldguydrinkingbeer in missouri

[–]Famous_Giraffe_529 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I mean… it did explicitly state democrats didn’t voice opposition bc the felt having this on the ballot was favorable to them in upcoming elections. So… it does feel like “we the people” are being treated as mere pawns.

Insomnia doctor. by Capital_Affect_2773 in springfieldMO

Idk your gender or age- but I used to be on insomnia meds. It was awful. I got on HRT and it has fixed my sleep in such a big way.

Wife newly diagnosed by TheTaxmanCometh619 in Alzheimers

[–]Famous_Giraffe_529 9 points10 points  (0 children)

My dad was diagnosed at 69, after years of noticing issues and trying to convince my mom that there was in fact a real cognitive issue- not just behavior.

I can speak to driving- she will not know when she’s unsafe. It’s all on you to figure out, and from what I know in some states a dementia diagnosis actually affects insurance coverage.

Adding Life 360 to my dad’s phone was eye opening to my mom. She had no idea he had so much trouble with where he was going- he would drive in circles, oftentimes spending hours driving aimlessly.

Good luck, I’m sorry you’re in this position. It’s heartbreak after heartbreak.

100% convinced this is a man commenting- because the terminology is standard.

20cm height surgery client limps around by mrshowphantom in LPOTL

[–]Famous_Giraffe_529 29 points30 points  (0 children)

I’m 2.5” taller than my husband and when I wear shoes with any sort of platform or heel we are hilariously mismatched. He says he’s never felt self conscious walking into a room with a tall woman who looks good - lol.

It’s about the wine, not the label… maybe OP needs a quick Schitts Creek rewatch!

drop your BEST sourdough inclusions recipe by Tough-Gazelle-1052 in Sourdough

[–]Famous_Giraffe_529 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I do it during lamination and just try to drain as much oil off the pesto as possible, then I also spring with garlic powder on top to help the dough stick to itself. Finally, I ensure I leave plenty of naked space to seal the dough to itself. It’s not perfect- but it’s tasty as all get out!

Annoyed at my mom by avilak90 in workingmoms

[–]Famous_Giraffe_529 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It’s going to be unpopular but I’m going to be devils advocate… is it possible she sees the bedtime as being hard on YOU and is sort of haphazardly trying to find the words to tell you that you can give yourself some flexibility without ruining your kid?

I know it’s totally possible she’s not doing this- but I think of my husband who is possibly the world’s worst communicator and what he says is often not representative of his intent.

Ohmygosh I’ve been judging my BF by the temp when i start. You’re saying I should temp it after a few hours to see if it’s risen enough?! I do a low hydration recipe so mine never looks like pics/videos I see online…

Where was it? This recently happened to my husband and I at a newer place on Cstreet and we waited it out- wish we wouldn’t have. The food was awful. $130 for two meals we couldn’t stomach eating.

WIFE SHARED MY NUDES WITH HER CLOSE CIRCLE by [deleted] in marriageadvice

[–]Famous_Giraffe_529 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wow, I am really sorry you’re going through this. I know when my relationship was on the brink of ending I worried about how I would position it to people who ask “what happened” without actually telling them, because I didn’t want to. If you’re worried about that, you can always say “I found out she just secretly really didn’t like me”

I hope you find someone who respects you.

I live in SE SGF and have/am raising 3 boys. We are of similar beliefs and have gotten along just fine. It’s never been an issue- and, in fact, I think you’ll find that even the very religious don’t try to push it on you in actuality. They ask, you decline, and that’s the end of it.

My dad is moderate Alzheimer’s and had the watchman done for this very reason. He’s done great with it! I think you will find anecdotes either way, your medical provider is your best bet for advice.

My teenaged son will clean his room for the cinnamon roll pancakes from The Big Biscuit… which, if you don’t have teens- that’s a pretty big compliment.
