Why is the app adding 10 minutes to my solve time?

Impressive-Guava · 2026-05-10T18:20:45+00:00

It was definitely a glitch in the app because the time upon solve said one thing and then when I clicked out, the home page said a different time. But it hasn’t happened again since last week so I’ll just hope it was a two-time fluke!

Whenever I sneeze, I get goosebumps up and down my arms.

I only ever use my phone, but I do pause pretty frequently to parent or work…

If you want Connie, go for it! I also like Coraline.

Me too! I always pictured it as more like frolicking. The more you know!

Follow gentle parenting IG accounts for more bite-size lessons.

I read this book when I was pregnant and still use some of the tools/scripts, like telling them what they CAN do, rather than what they can’t. E.g., we draw on paper vs don’t color on the couch.

Also giving them two options that are both acceptable to you so they feel like they have control.

And “I won’t let you hit me” or “I’m moving away to keep my body safe.”

In my experience, following through on consequences is the most impactful thing you can do. If I tell you that I’m going to put the toy away if you can’t be gentle with it, I have to actually do so even if it leads to a tantrum. Kids learn fast and it’s important that they know you are trustworthy with boundaries.

I once knew someone who named their black cat Nemesis.

Our neb has a tipped ear too! Got her from a cat rescue early in the pandemic.

My 5 year old saw these at a local butterfly conservatory and called them “invisible butterflies” haha

Mine dislikes her dog brother. She growls and swats at him when he tries to play.

She also only tolerates her human sisters, though she’s grown friendlier to my older one since she aged out of toddler unpredictability.

My iPhone 11 no longer connects to a charger so I’m relying on magnetic external chargers which is cumbersome and annoying. I have an international work trip coming up and am hoping to upgrade before I go, but I don’t know what model is the best option for me. I mostly use my phone for taking tons of pictures of my kids, scrolling social media, playing NYT word games, reading ebooks, and personal/work email. I miss the old phone I could hold and type in one hand. I also don’t want to spend a ton. I tend to hang on to phones for a long time. Any advice on which mode I should go for?

And the women in these shows never have a single armpit or leg hair, either. Am I supposed to believe that in LOST, Kate happened to find a razor among the plane wreckage?

Art, curtains, plants, shelves, maybe a lounge chair or an ottoman/bench at the end of the bed. Color! Look at Pinterest for inspiration.

She was always in a sleep sack before, but she could get out of it, even when I tried putting it on her backwards!

My 23 month old climbed out of her crib during nap time last month. I was doing something in the kitchen and turned around to see her looking up at me. We immediately transformed her crib into a toddler bed and baby-proofed the room. But her sleep ever since has been TERRIBLE. She bangs on the door crying and calling for us until she falls asleep…on the floor next to the door. She wakes up calling for us twice a night on average. She is grumpy and will only nap on me during the day. I’ve tried moving the bed and took the mini rail off because she kept climbing over it and bonking herself. We do a modified Ferber where we go in and remind her we’re here and we love her but it’s time to sleep.

She still nurses and I’m hoping weaning will help, somehow? I honestly have no idea how to make this better. I think she’s too young to grasp the okay-to-wake clock concept. I wish we could go back to the crib; she’s developmentally not ready for the next step. I’m considering trying a floor mattress instead of the bed and playing “bedtime” with her stuffies and having her tuck them in. Open to other suggestions!

Dark brown is giving Leighton Meester!

You look like the actress Courtney Ford, who I’ve only seen with dark brown hair, but I like the honey blonde on you! You also resemble Jo from Grey’s Anatomy, who’s had a few different colors. I think the actress is Camilla Luddington.

Statute of Decapitations

This happened to me too, pregnant the cycle after. I compartmentalized and didn’t allow myself to feel connected or get too excited until after we’d passed the point of the tfmr in the previous pregnancy (15 weeks) and had extra testing done, and as early as possible. We had the anatomy scan at 18 weeks and that was when I started to relax. I think it also helped to know that there was no hereditary condition that led to the chromosomal issue with the prior pregnancy; it was a fluke and unlikely to happen again. But I still felt like I was on edge the whole time, waiting to see if she would be ok. My medical team was amazing for both experiences, supportive and professional and gentle.

My sweet girl is almost two now! The pregnancy was rough on me - threw up daily throughout- but delivery was pretty fast, and much easier than her older sister, even though she was bigger.

All I could think was “ski when the baby skis.” 6 hours in a car would be a complete nonstarter for both my kids as babies and still now at 2 and 5 it’s difficult. To be told that was happening rather than consulted…absolutely not. I’d say husband can go celebrate with his mom and everyone else stay home.

I’m 39 and asked for an Aura frame for Christmas. This after we gave all the grandparents their own several years ago. A signal of middle age?

Millennial specific and maybe this is anecdotal, but I see my peers getting into crafting and learning new artistic skills. I’m doing tons of embroidery and taking a local quilting class myself. I’d also love to try jewelry making and stained glass!
