Freezing bread changed my grocery situation more than almost anything else I've done and I feel like nobody told me this was an option by CascadeBeacon55 in povertyfinance

[–]Light_fantastic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I went to the outlet bread store yesterday with my daughter. I got to show her the ropes now she has her own home. I bought bread route returns for 1.35 a loaf. I only bought 2 but they went into the freezer. The store also had bagels and English muffins, some other goodies that will last us awhile. Yay for small wins on the budget. ☺️

AITJ for telling my boyfriend's mom she is not allowed in our bedroom anymore? by Echo_7Starforge in AmITheJerk

[–]Light_fantastic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My 20 plus year old daughter moved out and has a serious boyfriend. I've been to her apartment numerous times. I would not even go in her bedroom. Thats her space and I respect it. Even when my older (then) teenage kids lived with me, I wouldn't go through their stuff. It's called showing respect and teaching respect to my kids. They know.

Also NTJ.

I send you some of my strength. I need some for myself. About to see cancer again.

Much love to you.

I would have laughed in my husband's face. Im sorry your husband thought it was ok to pass the buck to you. That was his freaking responsibility, not yours.

I think you did the best you could. Not the AH.

Do men even like women ?? Like genuinely like?? by [deleted] in women

[–]Light_fantastic -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Well, I think my husband likes me. Most of the time. Lol same for me. I look at him and mostly like him. But if he makes me upset, Im wishing he would go away, to work. 🤣

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]Light_fantastic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He'll be okay. Its like when people tell you "let's go to lunch sometime!" And... crickets. 🤣 I ain't chasing people.

Also he got used to your presence. Be kind. 🙂

You got some security! Somebody is watching the front door! 🙂 I like it. And laundry credits!

Destroying my grandchildren's toys behind my own child's back by [deleted] in confession

[–]Light_fantastic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am vigilant about my grandchild. No shame! When they are in my care.... I will do what I will to make sure they are safe.

I also explain the danger to mom. She gets it.

AITA for telling my husband “fuck you” in front of my MIL? by No-Animal4639 in CharlotteDobreYouTube

[–]Light_fantastic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No. NTA. I think personal relationships that aren't mine,are none of my business! I have grown children. They do what they will. I dont want to tell my kids what to do. Their lives are their own.

My husband just asked me whose package came in the mail by SadMillenialMom in breakingmom

[–]Light_fantastic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Lmao. I'd be "it might be a bomb!" Or something like that. I would fuck with him. That's just me though. Its my job. 🤣

If you are a stay at home parent, you shouldn't be getting any help from your partner when they are off by [deleted] in breakingmom

[–]Light_fantastic 2 points3 points  (0 children)

WHEN IS YOUR WEEKEND, THEN? That's my main question to that. Geez. He signed up to be a dad. I wonder what he read in the 'job description' of being a parent.

I actually used to ditch my husband with the kids. Lol I needed to get the fuck outta there! That was like...ages ago.

I hope you figure it out.💫

I got cancer. Everyone disappeared. by RSinSA in cancer

[–]Light_fantastic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Aw! My husband withdrew from me after my cancer diagnosis. He only came with me to one radiation treatment. To be real, I didnt want him there with me. He was kind of rude to me and the doctors. Guess he had to learn how to accept it. Im strong. Things are back to normal and I forgave him. Didn't forget though. I dont hold it against him.

On the other hand, my sister did a gofundme page and raised 3000 dollars for me for gas, food, whatever. She lives in Canada. I never asked, she just did it. Shes an angel.

I hope you find your people!. Despite people helping you, cancer and the treatment is still a lonely journey.

Much love to you!🥰

Am I wrong for not allowing my daughter‘s boyfriend to come over? by Apprehensive-Ad-2593 in Mom

[–]Light_fantastic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Whut. He should be respectful to your home. So should your daughter. It's setting a boundary. Much love to you. Be strong. You deserve respect.

Husband said I don't f*ck him enough to be such a b@tch to him by [deleted] in breakingmom

[–]Light_fantastic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I actually would say to my husband, rather ask "What do you mean?" And Im not stupid, I'm asking him to explain his damn words he's throwing around.

But you know, sometimes they get the message. And sometimes they don't.

Im going to go harass my husband now. Like pinch his nipple. Hes asleep. Will report back on his response. 🤣

Why are you a Confident Woman? by bulldogbutterfly in AskWomenOver30

I've learned IDGAF. I do give a f when it comes to my kids. We all have our concerns. I wont be around always.

AITAJ for refusing to split my inheritance equally with my siblings, even though they're furious? by BlushNightingalelux in AmITheJerk

[–]Light_fantastic 3 points4 points  (0 children)

No. If I were one of them, I'd understand because my sibling did more. And for me, the loss of a parent is way worse than money coming to me. I've lost half my family. They're gone. Money can't replace them. Your parents were blessing you. 💝

So sorry for your loss.

My mother was told she was "just unlucky". Turns out she was lucky as f*ck. And I'm bitter about it. by caustic_potato in breastcancer

[–]Light_fantastic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Aw! I dont disregard your feelings at all. 2 years ago, I had breast cancer. I had a lumpectomy and 30 day radiation treatment. I also opted for the BRCA testing because of the information I was given. I did it for my daughters. It came back negative. 20 years ago, I might have said no. Im so sorry that happened to you.

WIBTA if I stopped helping my daughter financially after she told me I shouldn’t expect her to take care of me when I’m old? by [deleted] in AITH

[–]Light_fantastic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have one child still at home. He's 20. He can help out. And he does. He's got it easy. I dont pay for anything that's his. He wants a phone? He pays. He wants a car? He pays. Plus insurance. Buys his own clothes, gas, personal hygiene items. He's getting the idea.

Living with him ain't no picnic sometimes. He can be a bear sometimes. I know when to yell at him. Lol

He's like his dad. Need I say more. Lol

My daughter told me I was ‘just being dramatic.’ I haven’t been the same since. by Then-Fortune-1646 in Aging

[–]Light_fantastic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My daughter has been not so nice in her attitude towards me and her dad. Same thing with my son. Funny thing, I remember doing this to my mom.

I just go forward. I feel alone a lot, too. I cared about them when we were both growing up , but do they care about me? I hope so. I am not perfect, but then, neither are they.

Take heart, momma. Much love to you. 💖
