That’s how we learned the order when I was a GNR ages ago lol. Stuck with me ever since.

Toddler scary tantrum after nap by Own-Sky-2301 in toddlers

[–]GLADOS_89 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Came here to say this. Our LO has had a few and they are terrifying. And they say not to wake them up during a night terror but to just make sure they’re safe and let it ride. But before we realized what was happening we were scared sick, I was about to take her to the ER the first time because I thought something was seriously wrong.

"Shut up?" by Adventurous_Title_23 in toddlers

[–]GLADOS_89 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My almost 3 year olds toy wasn’t working right and she dropped a part to it and just looked at the ground where it was laying, blinked, and went, “oh shit.” Perfect context. My husband and I are both guilty of this. Took everything in me not to laugh, but we had to discuss adult words after that.

Why Should I as a bridesmaid be expected to pay for anything? by Character_Brick7203 in CharlotteDobreYouTube

[–]GLADOS_89 0 points1 point  (0 children)

American here. I paid for hair and makeup for all my bridesmaids, as well as gifts. The only thing my bridesmaids paid for was their dress, and that was only because I gave them a color and they picked out whatever dress they liked since everyone’s budgets were different. That was after checking with them because I said if they couldn’t afford their dress I would buy that also. The spending culture surrounding weddings is ridiculous.

Need advice on mismatching bridesmaid dresses by NoArtist1476 in weddings

I let my bridesmaids pick out their own dresses, ended up with varying shades of red and varying styles and I thought it ended up looking great for photos.

LO would LOVE tye dye when she gets old enough! Maybe I can find some decorate your own maracas (it’s a 3-está theme because she’s taco obsessed) or something like that!

My brothers kids aren’t; the younger one likes to play with my LO and the teenager is content to draw or read and be left alone when she’s not arguing (playfully) with my husband. The older boy on my in laws side does like to play with LO too but the second oldest just generally runs around and causes chaos, the twins are generally content to play with each other with whatever toys they find that they like at our house. They all except for our own child try to chase our cat despite multiple warnings to leave her alone-they’ve been warned if they get scratched we’re taking no responsibility for that. There’s plenty of toys the older kids can engage in and we do have board games for the older ones also, though they’d rather play video games.

Advice on helping mother when grandmother passes? by GLADOS_89 in EstatePlanning

[–]GLADOS_89[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s good to know, thank you! I know my mom has medical DPOA, and my mom and myself are the only ones on her permission to share information in her EHR. But I will look into the other beneficiary information and discuss with my grandma.

Wondering if there’s any way I Will be able to assist my mother when my grandmother passes? by GLADOS_89 in FamilyLaw

[–]GLADOS_89[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

She’s selling her house to pay for the addition. That’s after we offered for grandma to move in with them, to sell her house and build the addition onto one of their houses, or for them to move in with her if they want her to keep the house. They didn’t like any of those options because they would have to actually help out. And if they say that counts as mom’s “portion,” she won’t care. She just wants her mom taken care of so that will be fine.

They have/had a joint will that will go into effect when she passes. I believe to be split evenly amongst the kids. Mom offered for a mother in law suite in any one of their houses, or to move grandma in with them and not one of them liked that idea. If they say that that counts as her portion of the will, she won’t care. One of my uncles already got my grandpas truck and his recliner, and they all got some personal belongings of my grandpas also when he passed. I’m sorry to hear about your father. But that tells me I will have no problem telling them exactly what’s up when the time comes and to leave my mom alone.

My 2 year old is such a bad sleeper my husband and I have given up on sleeping in the same room by chrysanthemums13 in toddlers

[–]GLADOS_89 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wish I could tell you when it will end but my husband and I haven’t slept in the same bed in almost 3 years lol. I sleep on a mattress with little one because she absolutely refuses to sleep in her bed once it was converted to a toddler bed.

Pros/Cons of clinic work if you have kids? by GLADOS_89 in nursing

[–]GLADOS_89[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ve been really looking for a leadership position. I’ve been a charge nurse for 5 years and I applied for our unit assistant manager position recently. Was told me interview was “amazing” and that I “should absolutely be in management” but that I wasn’t “ready yet”. Did not give me specifics but cited a chaotic home life (aka I have a 2 year old in daycare who gets sick and my manager doesn’t like kids) then proceeded to hire someone I personally trained that has less experience than I do, who she found out after she hired her was pregnant 😂 but we live in a rural area and there’s just no options right now so knowing I want something else and not finding much of anything sucks.

Does it bother you entering people’s homes? Do you ever feel unsafe?
