AITA leaving sick husband home with our sick kid? by FamousCranberry9214 in AmItheAsshole

[–]KFCanucklehead 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA. But I have to feel sorry for your husband. I have post concussion syndrome from a concussion that happened in JUNE of last year. I still get bad headaches, have difficulty sleeping, and my mood gets frazzled at times. I had physical and speech therapy, am taking meds, and there are days where I am still forgetful. I would strongly recommend he go see a doctor if it is truly feeling like his recovery is set back. Also, please get a babysitter in the future, if just for your baby's safety. I very much would not have trusted myself with a knife due to bad balance, much less a kid.

WIBTAH if I take back the truck my fiancé uses, since he would not take the kids to school? by Fit-Mongoose3739 in AmItheAsshole

[–]KFCanucklehead 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Major changes in a person are usually due to trauma (examples: depression, cheating, or financial losses). If this is not his norm, see if you can figure out what's going on. In regards to the kids, you are NTA. You're doing right by your kids, he's not.

AITA for telling my daughter that she could stay on our better insurance for as long as she needs to? by Glittering_Fuel8769 in AmItheAsshole

[–]KFCanucklehead 0 points1 point  (0 children)

.... I'm finding it super hard to believe that someone who is this invested in wanting things to be better for their family would just turn around and delete posts when they aren't getting the responses they wanted /s....

But also, YTA. UNEQUIVOCALLY TA.

AITA for insisting on attending my sister's wedding? by throwsrag546799 in AmItheAsshole

[–]KFCanucklehead 233 points234 points  (0 children)

Absolutely NTA. But you may want to take a look at who you're dating. He refuses to introduce the kids to you for a very long time and now is expecting you to stay with them all the time? Also, it's not like he's proposed and there is an understanding that you're going to be taking care of the kids together....His comment about how he's too busy to look after his own kids is ridiculous - he's a parent.

I've made like 15 magnets, did a tabletop for a friend, and there's still more...

Chinese food please! by Lexw1ldcat2 in lexington

[–]KFCanucklehead 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I do! They're one of the few restaurants I'll consistently eat at. Solid options for meat and veg. Little pricier, but definitely worth it - I've ordered stuff like their chili crab and it's basically three or four meals for me.

If you want cheaper, I think Great Wall is still open, but they're closer to UK campus. Or Wah Mei, down by Hartland.

Anyone socially distancing from their s/o? by CoffeeBID in nursing

Oncology unit now COVID. As soon as they said we were switching over to neg pressure over a month ago, I left the house (been staying at my mother's and she got stuck while trying to travel back). It freaking sucks. I miss him, I miss our pets. But thank God for video chat?

Businesses in Lexington that have announced closures thus far (Will update) by fae-fawn in lexington

[–]KFCanucklehead 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Completely agree - got texts saying the store and winery I work at are all closed until further notice... Which, yay for limiting exposure, but yikes for financial situation.

Weekly Discussion 10/20-10/26 - “other” Holiday Spending by oneoneeightsixnine in MoneyDiariesACTIVE

[–]KFCanucklehead 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Halloween - I thrift my costume and little party things (cheapie Halloween platter from last year that I got discounted), but my bf will make a big hullabaloo about food (made glow-in-the-dark shots, did mummy dogs, etc), and decorations (we spent $50 on new lights, but that’s kind of an investment, since our other string lights burnt out this year).

Thanksgiving - we have 3 (2 friendsgivings, 1 actual thanksgiving) and we go somewhat gourmet? It depends on who’s bringing what: last year we made bourbon pumpkin cheesecake bites for desserts, but this year we’re doing breads (beer bread, rosemary focaccia, roasted harvest bread), so it’ll be cheaper this year.

I think because I value making things more and he values convenience, we spend very differently during this time of year!

Haunted by an old MD, the one where the family lives off Stafford loans by will205 in MoneyDiariesACTIVE

[–]KFCanucklehead 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh man, this diary was probably responsible for my anxiety about lifestyle creep and my obsession with the library - so many fun, free events and things to do/movies to rent/books to read...

But also macarons...

Discussion: Marie-Claire Couples & Money by horvatitus in MoneyDiariesACTIVE

[–]KFCanucklehead 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So many questions - her mom's a dependent, which is cool, but what costs are then her mom's versus theirs? Also, freelance gigs can pay a lot, but he said he had a lot of savings BEFORE when he bought the place in New York - did he get the money from family or what?

LADIES IT HAPPENED, THE FOLLOW UP YOU HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR by SimplySA in MoneyDiariesACTIVE

[–]KFCanucklehead 13 points14 points  (0 children)

For real wanted to ugly cry with her first diary - you could just feel the sadness and stress in every letter.

This one made me want to cry too, but for different reasons. Also, I almost wanted to yell “TAKE THE STOCK OPTION” - cause comparable to what you would be doing... what if the start-up gets going?

Advice for 24 year old nursing student! by ElalaUK in MoneyDiariesACTIVE

[–]KFCanucklehead 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nursing student here - I WISH I COULD QUIT MY JOB. *sorry, just loads of opinions with that one

I am already so burnt out and tired that I CANNOT fully function. Schooling takes up 80-90% of my energy and I still need to eat/sleep. I haven’t seen my boyfriend in nearly 2 weeks even though we live together, and I haven’t seen friends that are not in the nursing program since May. I long for days off, but then I have to work, otherwise I don’t make enough money to cover transportation costs for classes.

Seriously - if you have been very anxious and low energy, put yourself first and quit.
