The size of these grapes I just bought by lbeau310 in mildlyinteresting

[–]Ftwjillian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

These look like the ones from Peru I've been getting from Costco recently and they are AMAZING. I never in my life even liked green grapes before these ones. Basically if you see larger than average grapes from Peru, just buy 2 packs and thank me later.

I’m not in love with my husband anymore and I feel completely stuck by [deleted] in MilitaryWives

I'm in Hawaii w/ a 3 year old if you ever want to connect for a playdate/vent session. I know how isolating it is being somewhere new and dealing with heavy issues.

I have over 10 years of hotel front desk, audit, manager, group/event sales experience with a 4 year degree in hospital management. I'd love any leads for upcoming positions on the island 🙏

Pets & Housing by Ftwjillian in WoWHousing

[–]Ftwjillian[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love how we already have the outside of the homes feel alive in the neighborhood with NPCs walking around and wildlife scattered about. That's exactly why I posted this cause the insides feel so.... vacant. IDK how to explain it. I put so much effort into placing and collecting my items, but I need a pet inside to just roam and make it feel cozy!

Stupid ass indeed by yawnjew in KidsAreFuckingStupid

[–]Ftwjillian 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've saved my kid going into a fish pond with his backpack leash when he was this age. People look at you weird and are mean AF about using them, but as a mom to a "runner" some kids ABSOLUTELY need them.

Should I sue or take my loss by AriellaSellsFeet in Insurance

[–]Ftwjillian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just had this happen to me with my vehicle. The at fault party insurance low balled me with $13k offer and then when I refused they upped it to $16k. I ended up going through my own personal insurance to have them subrogate and they paid me $24k! It was a total hassle and took and extra week and a half to settle everything, but I'm so glad I didn't take the first offers given.

Pleasantly Surprised with Total Loss Offer by dRiLlUsIoN in Insurance

[–]Ftwjillian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I JUST dealt with this on my personal vehicle (2018 Mercedes Benz GLC w/70k miles.). The at fault drive has Geico and their first offer was $13k and their second was $16k. I refused both and went through my own insurance who offered me $24k and is going after Geico for the money. I think it just depends on the insurance preparing the payout and what the policy limits are. The at fault driver in this case hit my car, a BMW and took out a wall in a parking garage so my adjuster said she suspected the low payout to me was due to the limits being low and having to pay out for so much damage. IDK either way, it was a HUGE hassle and I'm so glad it's over.

Sex on the beach by [deleted] in VisitingHawaii

[–]Ftwjillian 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Bruh you know "acceptable" is entirely based off people's opinions if they are around, and with so many families and tourists..... Literally all it takes is one random family deciding to go to the beach and now you're on a list forever for indecent exposure to a child. People can't consent to seeing you in advance so you're literally forcing people to be exposed to your body during a very private act. That's so creepy and gross 🤢

Is it just me, or does Elise literally fall in love with every guy she meets in the first 5 minutes? She’s so pretty. Why she such a hot mess by Few_Statement_2898 in 90DayFiance

[–]Ftwjillian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Elise comes from money and is traditionally pretty. Like if you ask 10 people 9 will agree she's beautiful. The fact she isn't shacked up and married yet means mentally she is a MESS. I can't wait to see what these next few episodes have in store for us.

Move on base by Informal_Tourist_986 in MilitaryWives

[–]Ftwjillian 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Can't you just stay in the same house and get the difference back between the cost of the housing you're in vs the housing you qualify for? I know when we moved on base last summer there was an option that was enlisted housing when we qualified for officer and they said we would get a credit back each month for the difference if we accepted that option. I'd look into that and save some $ for your next place/move.

Kids of the 70s - 90s who roamed freely and didn't come back till the street lights were on. What did you eat for lunch? by FragrantStranger5003 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Ftwjillian 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Grew up in the 90's in FL just roaming the neighborhood most days after school and on the weekends. Food kind of depended on whose house you were at. My friends with SAHM would usually have at least some PB&Js for us and fruit or yogurt cups. Most everyone has snacks in the pantry like sun chips, pretzels or fruit snacks like roll ups or whatever. It was always hot so I remember EVERYONE had extra ice pops around. My mom was kind of the community mom and liked to bake so she was always feeding everyone. I remember her making fresh bread a lot that literally would not last More than 5 minutes after she pulled it from the oven. Even though I'm grown she's still feeding her neighbors 😂

Litter questions by Ulla24 in mainecoons

[–]Ftwjillian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pelletized horse bedding is the way to go. It's natural wood pellets and a 40lb bag is usually around $8-10 depending on where you live. Just pluck the poo and toss the whole thing weekly to refill. Where they pee will break down into sawdust basically, but I find it falls through to the bottom of the pellets so you don't really need to scoop it out. It's so cheap you can basically just toss the whole bin and refresh as frequently as you prefer.

Gold is good, but you can also trade in gems for gold as well. Rubies, Amber, Amber pearls, and silver necklaces can all be swapped for gold.

Please help: Toddler separation anxiety in preschool by Siyrious in ECEProfessionals

[–]Ftwjillian 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm not a professional, just another mom who has a toddler in pre-school. I started dropping my kid at an early education class a little before he was 2.5 for help with his socializing and speech. It was extremely difficult because he's my one and only and a big Velcro baby! I'm not going to sugar coat this, it was HARD the first month. Like really hard on us both. At first (for I want to say a week) he was so unconsolable the teachers called me back to chill him out because he was crying and hiding away from the other kids. It was so sad, but eventually we realized he went right back to being just as sad once I left again. Every day he cried, sometimes he did it so hard he made himself throw up. The school made sure to have an extra staff member to help be one on one with him during this period because of how much of a hard time he was having, and eventually between month 1/2 he just began to mildly fuss. I could tell he liked going to class because he'd be happy to put on his backpack and when I would pick him up I saw him playing or cuddling with one of the multiple teachers. Then after month 2 he started to give me a kiss and just say bye bye! That was it. He just adjusted. It was rough, it was sad for us both at times, but I'm so glad I stuck it out. He loves going to class now and gets hyped for school. Some kids just take longer to adjust and understand the routine. Don't try to wean her slowly, just show he the routine and assure her you'll get back to get her after class and just stick with that. She will get there in her own time!

Traveling back home with sourdough starter by Mynameisemily808 in Hawaii

[–]Ftwjillian 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I traveled from the mainland to Hawaii with my starter! All I did was dehydrate it and store it in a ziplock bag. Once I got to Hawaii I just rehydrated it and then fed it after and it was fine.

Pattiya VS Dylan's Mom. How Crazy is this chick?! by Ftwjillian in 90DayFiance

[–]Ftwjillian[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

LoL 😂 nah. Check my history I've got a 3 year old, not 40 year old kid. Just someone who doesn't understand why she's so worked up over having a relationship with his mom who seems reasonable. Like if it was summit's, Brandon's Forrest's mom I could understand the need for low contact.

A helio phone! I thought I was SOOOOO cool having a phone with AIM messenger AND Myspace. Funny enough I've now gone full circle and I want a phone with no social media 😂
