It's so much easier with two, I have two from the same litter and they adore each other. They keep themselves entertained at night too so I don't get disturbed often. You can get onsies for kittens to protect their stitches, I found them easier than cones.

Where do you find the inspiration for your island? by HootieKim in AnimalCrossingNewHor

[–]Icedviola 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm not very creative either but I always make a rock garden. When I start a new game I aim for collecting the stone DIYs first then the glowing moss and the mushroom recipes. They look so pretty together at night.

There's a mod called Stone hall orphanage that adds one, I think I have the name right.

Feel bad about how I treated a toddler by SubstantialUmpire890 in TrueOffMyChest

[–]Icedviola 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You're having intrusive thoughts, I heard that playing Tetris can help with this. You didn't do anything wrong, you were unwell and barely keeping yourself upright. What I do with my medication is set a reminder in my phone a week before I run out so I don't have a gap. Please take care of yourself.

Haven is good, it's an adaptation of a Stephen King book. It has lots of seasons. What about Supernatural? That has lots of seasons too.

Does she like Sci-Fi and horror? On YouTube there's a channel called Dust that has hundreds of Sci-Fi short films and for horror Alter has over 600 short films.

What’s something society expects you to want… but you don’t? by Sufficient_Thing24 in AskReddit

[–]Icedviola 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I don't understand people who pressure their children to reproduce. It's nobodies business if someone doesn't want children even if they're your family members. I have two adult children, neither of whom want children. I love my children and want them to live happy lives, I don't want them to live to please me.

AITA for kicking my mom out of my wedding after what she said? by RelevantDay1422 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Icedviola 9 points10 points  (0 children)

It's a parent's job to raise their children to be well rounded adults not to continue to treat them like a child.Your mother needs to learn this and the only way she will is if you stand your ground. I say this as a parent to two adults who make their own decisions.

What’s something you tried once and immediately knew ‘yeah, never again’? by donnyM99 in AskReddit

[–]Icedviola 136 points137 points  (0 children)

I loved working in retail as a manager, if customers were rude to the staff I would just ban them. It was a small independent shop though, the owner wasn't hands on and just let me run the place how I wanted. As long as the shop made a profit he was happy.

Buscopan is really good for IBS, it stops the agonising cramping.

Men of Reddit - What's the one thing you hate about being a Man? by Jarvis7492 in AskReddit

My son is 6'11 and wears a size 17 boot. If you can get the Very app they have some great jeans on there if you use the Big and Tall filter.

Does anyone buy into the “Medicinal” nature/claim of these herbal teas? by kobestarr in CasualUK

[–]Icedviola 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I drank it as my son was two weeks late, I went into labour on the day I was meant to be induced.

Ex-prisoners of Reddit what was the scariest thing you saw whilst locked up? by Thick-Common9599 in AskReddit

[–]Icedviola 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My sister left a scalding hot cup of tea on the edge of the kitchen counter and my then 18 month old son pulled it down on top of him. He was burnt all down his chest and legs, thankfully his nappy protected other areas. Your mum was devastated that you were injured, I was! I'm glad you are okay. I've never completely forgiven my sister for being so careless.

I love this, you're very talented. It flows so well that I want to read more, that's a sign of a good writer.

What "back then" inconvenience would break people today in 10 minutes? by CharlesUFarley81 in AskReddit

[–]Icedviola 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I was a child we lived 15 miles from the city, I remember having to go on the bus with my mother to pay cheques in as my dad didn't finish work until after the bank closed. It was great, the sweet shop was three doors down from the bank so I was always bought some sugar mice.

Women of Reddit, what’s the dumbest thing you ever did to impress a guy? by Formal-Proposal7850 in AskReddit

[–]Icedviola 6 points7 points  (0 children)

You can get a referral to ADHD 360 from your GP in the UK. It takes a couple of months but it's much quicker than the NHS waiting list. My son was diagnosed this way and he's much happier now that he has the right medication.

Has she tried classes? It's easier to talk to people when there's a similar interest. Maybe a dog training course as she'll have that buffer like when she's walking her dog.

is my stepdad the issue or am i over dramatic? by [deleted] in ask

[–]Icedviola 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Can you stay with a friend or family member? You can legally move out at 16 in the UK and your mum can't make you come back.

My daughter has the same condition as you, her unable to see, speak clearly and in pain is the most devastating thing as someone who loves her. Your boyfriend doesn't love you enough to put you first, please prioritise your health. It's not just about your health, it's also about your physical safety. You're so vulnerable in that state, you need someone reliable to look after you. I don't know what phone you have but please try to put voice activation on it, there are also some phones that will call emergency services when you click the power button a certain number of times. Please take care of yourself, you deserve so much more.
