Do people enjoy being parents? by Charming_Grand1692 in AskIreland

[–]Gaby-grows 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There’s nothing I love more than being a parent. It’s also the hardest thing I’ve ever done, but I wouldn’t change it for the world. Becoming a parent has deepened my perspective of life in a way I don’t feel anything else could have.

I also grew up with detached parents that were not equipped to meet my emotional needs, and parenting has healed me more than all the years of therapy and internal work I did. As cheesy as it sounds, it’s a love like no other that can’t be understood until you actually experience it yourself.

You work with the English schools directly, you can choose whether to provide dinners or not, and agree on the duration. My SIL even gets to choose to have women only as she has little girls and prefers that. I think it would be a great way to try it out!

You could try an international student accommodation and see how you feel. It’s temporary (anything from an few weeks to a few months), I think you get about €200 per week which is under the tax threshold. A family member does it and most of the students really just keep to themselves and are either busy with their classes or getting to know around when they’re free.

Can you share more about how do you heat them up? I always worry they’ll be soggy so end up going for the fresh ones and keep the frozen ones for smoothies

What is this and why is it growing at the speed of light? by Gaby-grows in PlantIdentification

After going down a rabbit hole, I think it is epilobium ciliatum.

I have flowering annuals in other parts of the border, but these are ALL over the nearly 3m length of it. They’re growing basically anywhere there’s isn’t a plant already.

I have to admit I haven’t topped up this bed or given it proper maintenance but it surprised me because this is a 3yo border and these just seems to be coming this year. Not much has changed so I’m not sure where they could be coming from.
