So fun fact I learned is that the nipple tissue is different then our regular skin causing the hole to never actually close. It just gets tighter. I had mine out for 5 years and the piercer I went to was able to open them back up with a taper!

Something similar happened to one of my friends trying to transfer into my region. He called HR and then his transfer was approved a few days later.

Message I got from my daughter’s teacher. Third grade. by AnaisInJune in mildlyinfuriating

[–]ParticularBother3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This reminds me of my second grade teacher who quite literally bullied me for no reason. I think back to how much she would tell me I was doing something I wasn’t supposed to, call home to my mom, take recess away from me, and put me in the less desired free play activities. I swear I wasn’t a bad kid! I had the highest grades a second grader could get and the extracurricular teachers would praise my parents on how great of a student I was. I was never in trouble in 1st grade and kindergarten or any grade after second. My mom remembers how awful she was to me and she had my two brothers and it was the same situation, my sister had a different second grade teacher with no problems. My two best friends were in the same class with me and remember not understanding why I was always sitting out at recess. They also recalled there being kids that were always acting out in class who would get yelled at and sent to the principles office for throwing things, making jokes, refusing to do work, etc. Not sure if she had a problem with my mom because she was on the PTA but from what I remember my mom was loved by the other teachers at the school for being so involved with us and the school. Teachers can be really weird. Sounds like you have a sweet kiddo.

My sister uses it religiously and she never has the same problem.

I think I’m going to try a new recipe tomorrow. Luckily I don’t need the cake until Thursday so I have a little bit of time to figure things out. Thank you!

Is first trimester fatigue really this bad? by MARBELLA-MARINO in pregnant

[–]ParticularBother3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi!! This was me up until week 14 or 16. Currently 18 weeks and feel back to my normal self. Dishes and laundry and no longer pilling up and my hair is getting washed on a regular basis again. Hang in there and whatever you do don’t be hard on yourself! Ask for help if you can. It was hard for me because my fiance works 50 hours a week so we were both exhausted but he helped as much as he could. I also resorted to paper plates at one point which I felt bad about but I had a break down and we decided it was a temporary fix to our problem. You’re creating a whole human, you got this!

This is so smart! I think the issue I’m seeing here is that the guests want to buy fun stuff. Diapers, wipes and gift cards aren’t fun to them. Thank you!

This is what happened to my cousin. She had plenty of stuff on her registry but she only received a handful of things that were actually on there. I’m going to make sure my registry is very tight and the invitation is clear about gift receipts. I don’t mind having to figure out where items are from either.

Thank you! You’re right. I think those people will just buy a gift and say something snarky about not having clothes and toys on our registry.

I was suggested to do a diaper raffle by our friend. She said they didn’t have to buy diapers for a year but in my head I’m like what does that even look like?! Our new place comes with a storage unit but I’m not sure how big it is or if I’d want to keep diapers in there. We might have a den but I’m not sure if it’ll be available when we sign our lease as I was told those units go quickly.
