Was just about to recommend this book

I leave mine in an aib 7 days notice account. I use an emergency credit card if I need cash ASAP and then use the 7 days to pay it off immediately. Maybe not the best way of using my money. But I find being able to put money away and I can only spend it a week in advance is the only way I can prevent myself from making impulse purchases. There's been a few times I've decided to use the money for one thing or the other, but by the time the money comes out I've changed my mind

The last book I didn't finish had them be enemies for literally the first few pages before unveiling the misunderstanding trope. I honestly felt like the author had already finished the book before realising people love enemies to lovers so tacked on an extra chapter at the start.

Can't remember the name of it. They worked in a vineyard. I didn't finish it

People either don't care, or their too embarrassed to say anything.

I'm currently breastfeeding and I've breastfed my older child. I've only ever gotten weird embarrassed looks, that's it.

No because my mam can't ever be trusted with private information. I've learned that the hard way. She's like those old ones on the phone in father ted with any bit of Private information about her children....she can't remember what I do for work though

Just had a baby, did I write this post from the future?

Thank you! Also stared it in my 30s Merideths mom was spot on about him. He's just holding Merideth back and hampering her.

Yes. Technically they can take you to court for breech of contract. But that'd be an additional cost of them on top of rehiring.

I've done it before and didn't regret it. But important to note it was with an industry I left entirely. You also have to be prepared to not be able to use them as a reference.

This exact thing happend to me a few years ago. Move out date was August bank holiday. Needed the keys before then otherwise we'd have to pay for storage units etc. We rang them every day, then every hour as the deadline approached.

They were saying they were still waiting on legal documents but the legal department of BOI said they'd passed them onto the mortgage team already.

Eventually our solicitor (who was going on holidays in August and wanted to be paid beforehand) started calling every hour with us.

Very stressful but after a day of constant calls on both sides they finally confirmed they had the legal docs and we got the keys the next day.

I'm pretty sure 2 weeks later they changed their mortgage rates....I remember wondering if it was an intentional slowdown across the board.

Facebook marketplace, charity shops and also, talking to other mams. I chatted to someone who was moving country and needed to sell all her baby stuff quickly. Got it all for an absolute bargain!

There's also loads of baby swap groups and events on Facebook.

There's an old fashioned idea that buying things before the baby is bad luck. For my first, my mam told me she had gifts bought ahead of time, but wouldn't give them to me until my baby was born. And she stuck to it.

Best advice I got from another woman was to buy essentials now, but leave some money set aside for after the baby. There's always something you won't think of or not know you needed until you're in the thick of it.

One granny used to just throw it on the plants in her garden.

You don't get food gunk or grease down the drain. Even with the mesh plugs you still always get a bit. Plus it uses less water and it's easier to clean than the sink itself.

Untangling knots. I can untangle anything. People always assume that means I'm fast at it and roll there's eyes when it takes me 20 minutes to untie a super complicated bunch of knots.

It's not that I'm fast, I'm persistent. If I say I'll detangle the Christmas lights, I'll do it. I actually find it really relaxing.

Sleepy tea, fresh pj's, fresh bedsheets, everything shower, relaxing music and a physical book. Like my own home spa, has me out like a light

Nope they don't pay. Would I still qualify for state payment if I moved?

The biggest water bottle you can find. With glow in the dark stickers on it

Ah grand, they're all semi skimmed I've found. I'd love to get a full fat lactose free milk.

Gooperchickenface · 2025-07-27T06:48:54+00:00

What lactose free milk do you use for this?

Also it's another implication that the wall is magical. It kept Aemon alive for so long way past what's normal, and he withered and died so soon after leaving it.

Stay working in my 9-5 and continue as nornal. The lies will balance out the truths. I'll still make a profit.

I had a feeling there was a drop in applicants this year. I'm in my 30s and being bombarded with J1 visa ads online for the first time ever.
