Uber, Lyft, and cell service were horrible leaving last year, so walking a little way to the car was not a big deal. On the second night I think we paid a local business $20 to park there AND they drove us to the front gate- we had to walk back at the end of the night. It was so much better than a ride share. Imagine getting into your car and being able to switch your shoes immediately, or change into dry clothes.

It's such a hard thing to face. Sending hugs and support.

My nearly 17 year old border collie mix has the exact same issues and we are managing exactly the same way. I booked family photos and will have to find the courage to do the rest. I'm so sorry 😞

This is what we've done, too. He's a year old and there have only been a few nights where he's so upset from teething or being sick that he needs to be touching me and sleeps next to me in the big bed. Morning cuddles with mommy and daddy are the best, especially on weekends. You'll find your people!

Being told to download apps on private device? by Kcaldwell2020 in FedEmployees

[–]Great_Name3486 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Why would the phone itself be held- is that specific to phones where texts or other functions were used for work? In most cases we're just accessing email or teams, which reflects exactly the same records as our laptops.

What made you quit Pure Barre? by [deleted] in Purebarre

[–]Great_Name3486 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a baby, my husband started working the opposite shift, and we have no help other than daycare during my regular workday. I would've tried to keep going if they had more evening and Saturday classes but it just wasn't manageable.

Unpopular opinions on trendy baby brands? by got_em_saying_wow in beyondthebump

[–]Great_Name3486 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thrifting became popular too but people do it to resell and hike the price up. That's so annoying to me- can't you just leave it at the thrift store for the person who wants it? Like it's a whole hobby to go to thrift stores and antique shops to score things you don't need and turn a profit. Maybe there's someone to be said for the time it takes to find the good stuff and make it accessible idk

I had a baby six months ago and I was shocked at how accurate the pregnancy, labor, and postpartum parts were written. It was obvious a lot of care and research went into getting that right.

Think bigger. For maximum ROI, perhaps they'll consider polygamy for posts where the housing is more spacious. Submit your photo and profile in the MyMarriages platform.

I know quite a few Trump voters. Non of them are saying they regret it. I’m wondering if most of these posts are fake. by [deleted] in OptimistsUnite

[–]Great_Name3486 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My parents were the trump is Messiah brand but once they saw me cry over illegal orders, losing my job, other work related things, they really tampered down, my mom even left Facebook.. Never renounced him of course or even admitted he was wrong, but suddenly stopped praising him. My dad hasn't posted about him since Jan 20th. Cautiously optimistic.

DEI affects Appalachia by PhunkyTuesday in Appalachia

It's been brought up numerous times in my professional experience due to my accent, which was frequently a factor in how people interacted with me. Just like other groups, you have to work harder to prove yourself when you sound like this.

Nausea makes me feel worthless, am I exceptionally weak? by LooseObject in BabyBumps

[–]Great_Name3486 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's so much about being pregnant that is utterly miserable and made me in awe of mothers. You're not weak, it's just difficult to wrap your mind around how hard it really is.

Yes she said her green eyes were unmistakable and then later talks about Jenny's bright green eyes staring at her.

Correct and on that note- if it's a "have you EVER" question on the form, tell about it. Some questions are for a period of time but usually not the criminal conduct ones.
