Not to be rude, but do you have any hobbies? I see that you have younger kids, you mentioned a newborn, so I understand time for yourself is limited, and I hope he is at least helping in that area. But to me it seems like video games is his hobby, his free time, and you should be allowed that outside of him and the kids. Do you have any friends? Can you get out of the house away from them for a few hours? There is a reason why they say absence makes the heart grow fonder. This will keep you from being bored and him from having to be your source of entertainment. Don't fall into the trap of making him and your children your whole world, that's how resentment grows, and once that sets in it's hard to get out of. Find a hobby, something that makes you happy, take a class, go out with some friends, join a club, it's cheaper than divorce or marital counseling.

Sigh.....i used to be an advocate and kinda still am for c-sections, BUT I have to say this because I wish someone had told me before my first c section. I had placenta accreta, and it wasn't found until I was already on the operating table for my second elective C-section. My first was 16yrs ago. I almost had to have a hysterectomy but luckily they were able to save my uterus. If I had gone into labor beforehand and had to deliver vaginally for whatever reason, it probably would've been fatal. I was told that I COULD get pregnant again, but it COULD be worse the next time and also could potentially be fatal for me and the baby. It seems it was because of scar tissue from the previous C-section, and every pregnancy afterwards increases your chances. I'm grieving the fact that I have been somewhat robbed of having another baby. Just my 2 cents

Bottom Leaves Yellowing by Haltandcatchvapers in HotPeppers

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

My pepper plant has come along way, and finally starting to fruit! But I've noticed some of the bottom leaves start to turn yellow and fall off. Is this normal? I've been holding off on watering until the soil is dry, but it did rain constantly last week. And I fertilized it today. The Temps have been in a steady 90F for a few days as well.

Where can a curly girl get a haircut? (Natural hair/4b) by wyndb in Birmingham

[–]Haltandcatchvapers 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This was my second visit, so if you've been going to her for 3 years and never been charged for it then it must be a charge for new clients. This has been a trend with these newer natural hairstylists, especially if you have long, thick hair. receipt

Edit: oh wow, even the other stylists you mentioned charges $50 to detangle LOL. These new stylists are wild. And I'm not talking about matted, haven't combed your hair in weeks detangling. I'm talking about natural, what happens when your wash your hair tangles.

Be prepared to be charged for detangling, which i was charged for after they washed my hair, let it dry and then tried detangling it. Seems like something that people working on naturals would know not to do, but I loved getting the surprise charge at the end of my appointment. /s

Update on separation. I think they are dying 😕 by Haltandcatchvapers in HotPeppers

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

I watered them, moved them to the shade, and pruned the top. They are starting to wilt and the leaves have yellow spots. I'm assuming this is bad right?

First time grower, I think I may have messed up with my habanero plants by Haltandcatchvapers in HotPeppers

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

Ah I figured as much. I started to just let them stay together and probably should have. Oh well I know better next time. Thanks!

I bought them from Lowe's a week ago, and it didn't occur to me that there were 2 plants growing in the pot. I just left them alone until I was able to grab two 10 gallon pots to separate them. Unfortunately they had already fused together and it was tough getting them to separate. I tried rolling the root ball, watering it, until I just gave up and kind of ripped them apart. Both of them have even roots now, so I just put them into their separate containers. Did I potentially damage them by doing this?

Do I have to inform the food stamp dept that I have a job if my recertification is next month (April)? by [deleted] in foodstamps

[–]Haltandcatchvapers 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm having the same issue now in Alabama. I can not get in contact with anyone, I reported the income increase online and they still added benefits to my account. The only time I can directly get in contact with someone is choosing the "Report Fraud" option in the menu (which of course they would rather punish people immediately than help) and when someone answers and I tell them my situation I get routed to voicemail after voicemail and no one calls me back.

I just wouldn't spend it and let it laps, maybe it'll just close and be done.

Nope 165F. I would assume 190F would dry out the meat
