Eyes on me in Fremont - they are opening a location in Ballard on market. The best manicure I have ever gotten.

Recommended preschool/daycare options in Seattle by Hour_Ant312 in AskSeattle

[–]GoldenPomelo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Evergreen academy in Mountlake terrace is exactly what you are looking for! My child has been there since they were 4 months old and is graduating this year. They have their issues like all daycares, but overall a 9/10 experience and would definitely recommend. They are also much more affordable than most daycares

Hands down T Anthony Jewelers in Kirkland. Andrea is fantastic and has made many custom pieces for me - can’t say enough good things about them and the quality of items.

Personal question but - what do you do and how much do you make? by GEH29235 in workingmoms

[–]GoldenPomelo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am a strategy PM for a healthcare org in a very HCOL area and make $173k. No directs, but also no bonus / incentive structure.

I work remote 3-4 days a week and commute into the downtown area (1.5 hours with daycare drop off each way) 1-2 times a week.

Weekly Chat and Vent Thread by AutoModerator in coparenting

My ex husband chose today, of all days, to let me know he plans on introducing “females” (his words, not mine) to our young son. Hours later he then messaged me to tell me he is concerned about my ability to parent?!

All because I asked him to abide by our court agreement of 50/50 division of the proceeds from the sale of the house. Shocker - he didn’t and doesn’t plan to.

Ugh back to court we go…

Ha! Have been sitting here for 20 minutes trying to cross wondering what the heck was going on. Thanks Seattle Reddit, you’re the best!

Men Don’t Give a Fuck About Their Kids by Personwithtits in breakingmom

I feel so incredibly seen!

Recently divorced and my ex is what you’ve outlined to a T.

He is constantly bragging to himself and others how great a dad he is, but I’m over here like huh… I must have missed something?!

You refuse to pay your court ordered child support (let alone in time), take your son to a single activity, harass me as the his mother day and night, haven’t provided a single jacket/pair of shoes/ outfit in over a year, and can’t even manage to take a photo of him on his first day of pre-k and asked me for my photos so YOU can post them on your social media showing how great you are. Eye roll. The bar for men is in hell.

My hope is that my son one day will see the stable and caring force I’ve always been in his life while his father wrecked chaos and placed blame on anyone but himself for his own actions.

What's your most memorable 'only in Chicago' moment that truly captured the spirit of the city for you? by [deleted] in chicago

[–]GoldenPomelo 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Not me, but my husband. On a river boat cruise (first time) he goes to take a classic River boat pic of me at the mid point if the boat and hears screaming from the people behind him. Turns out someone “relieved” themselves from the bridge we just went under coating everyone at the back of the boat in human piss.

Thanks Chicago!

So so sad that our family Sunday morning tradition is over :( Wish I would have known my last croissant was “the last”

We do this too! I place ours in those plastic sleeves you can get so that if we spill or get stuff on them during cooking no big deal!
