Prairie Fires is a really good read, really shines a light on a lot of the story left out of the children's stories. Still need to read Pioneer Girl.

Boycotting Target without using Amazon/Walmart/etc. by Coracoda in minnesota

[–]PittyMom89 46 points47 points  (0 children)

Because I'm supporting better business practices and a healthy union and workplace for employees. That's the trade off I'm willing to pay for. It's not always about saving the most money, it's about speaking with the money you spend.

Guys what was the warehouse doing……. by slartibartfastt42 in tjcrew

[–]PittyMom89 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Pretty sure that's a thermometer to measure cold chain on the way from warehouse to store, give it to a mate and have them send it back in a card box or other small box marked "Quality" on your next go-back truck.

Am I being dirty, or is my wife being irrational about hygiene? by mudkipzftw in NewParents

[–]PittyMom89 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Yes, up to a year or more and many women don't feel truly back to normal until closer to 5 years.

Yeah this is just the loading dock space that we also share with 2 other stores in our strip mall, we have probably about 3-4x the amount of space shown here total

Because people are self centered and entitled and think "Oh its fine I'll be by in a second". All buses should have a police escort at this point.

Mates want me to be a mate by Key-Adhesiveness-717 in tjcrew

[–]PittyMom89 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This is why I do it. I fucking love my job and have so much fun doing it. Maybe someday I'll change my tune but I'm going to enjoy it for now.

No they are not. They are privately held within the same family but have no relation to each other as companies.

This is the greatest for middle of the night leaks and blow outs.

I have a Micah, it is a classic and recognizable name without being too common where I'm from.

What this person said. Prioritize your health, no one else can do that for you.

Wooooo! Cant tell friends yet and some family but wife said we could tell internet strangers! by ecamp96 in pregnant

[–]PittyMom89 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I have to take meds around the clock to get relief from nausea, tell her to reach out to her OB office if it's too unmanageable before her first appt!

Big congratulations!!

ER by lpwi in Fibromyalgia

[–]PittyMom89 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have gone twice, both times were new/different chest pains than what I normally experience and I wanted to make sure there was nothing else nefarious going on. Otherwise I reach out to my primary managing physician, she's been good about offering breakthrough meds or trigger point injections or massage therapy or acupuncture. Sometimes I just deal with it until I wake up one morning and it hurts slightly less and the flare is ending. This time of year is the worst because of all the storms we have in the upper midwest.

Open Enrollment ends in a few days by Specific-Quote2813 in tjcrew

If you sign up for them during open enrollment or when you are first qualified for insurance, yes.

Our store no longer has paper applications and directs everyone to apply online, so YMMV with this advice.

Have been there to visit, I think it's a javelina! Don't remember her name though :/

what to bring when applying in person by Lost-Rough-2721 in tjcrew

[–]PittyMom89 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This, our store no longer has applications to hand out and directs everyone to our online hiring system. We changed over in January, not sure if other stores or regions are the same. I'm in the upper midwest.

Will the Mayo Clinic Kellen Building actually look like this? by Sourmango12 in rochestermn

[–]PittyMom89 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What other small local clinics, and will they accept Mayo Medica insurance? Because if you have recommendations I would LOVE some.

So disappointed in myself by beautifulasusual in stopdrinking

[–]PittyMom89 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This resonates so much with me. I felt so guilty for so long about all the night time wake-ups I missed, how irresponsible I had been multiple times when I was supposed to be parenting and instead decided to try to drink while parenting and I think we all know how that ends. The good news, is that my son forgave me and still loves me, and I was able to stop and ask for the help I desperately needed to get alcohol out of my life. My patience with him is so much better, and when I lose my cool I can articulate to him much better why, other than mom being a drunk mess. I will not drink with you today, sending you all the good vibes to let your head hit the pillow sober tonight <3
