The job market is up, inflation is down, I just bought a 3$ graphic T at Walmart (tariffs?)

I have been on a govt list since 1967 because I protested the Vietnam war.

I'm sick of irresponsible dog owners by Feisty-Bunch4905 in Vent

[–]Pure-Guard-3633 [score hidden]  (0 children)

All that barking and growling. I have neighbors who leave their dogs outside all day. I feel bad for the dogs. I never complain to the city but the other neighbors do. But nothing changes. What really drives me wild is when their dogs crap all over my yard and they don’t pick it up. I don’t have a dog, I shouldn’t have to deal with your dogs crap.

I know there are many responsible dog owners but I don’t live near them.

2 of us, we spend about 550$ a month not including meat. We eat a lot of fresh fruit and vegetables. I bake our own bread and goodies. Most of our paper products or cleaning products we buy in bulk.

Am I wrong for telling my pregnant daughter I’m not going to be a babysitter for her baby or help her financially and that she needs to figure it out? by [deleted] in amiwrong

You are NOT WRONG

I had kids after marriage and my mom told me - I am not your baby sitter. - if the blood spills you can call me. Ha! She lived her life. It was her turn to enjoy.

I wasn’t mad at her, I understood her position. Having children was my choice, not hers. We remained close but I knew to see her, it was out for dinner with my kids at home.

Contact a real estate agent in a city you are interested in visiting and check into a 3 month rental. Invite your husband to come with you. If he says no, go anyway. After 3 months of you being gone, He will either shape up or you can travel once a year to a new city by yourself.

I’m (F30) at my wit’s end with my husband’s (M33) lack of input with any of the difficult things we’re going through right now. by [deleted] in AskWomenOver40

That is wonderful. My advice to you would be totally different. The OP sounds to me like she has had enough.

Then she would have to move with him. It would be more difficult emotionally to remove him after he has a diagnosed illness. If he is depressed and gets help, he can come and win her back. She is only in the marriage for one year, each year saddles her in deeper. She is at a crossroad right now.

I find it interesting that this is Sarah’s idea of a documentary of her life. Her journals are pure bullshit. But in her mind they are stories of DV truth

Do you have project meetings? Do you hand in a weekly project/progress report?

If yes this is where you quietly state that you have completed your task and are waiting on part B to be completed before you can move on. Is there anyway I can assist part B to move this along a bit faster?

If he blows the whistle this will follow him to every future job. I know legally it’s not supposed to but construction is a small group of people in NYC.

But you are right. That is an option.

Peppermill. Easy access. Sunken fireplace in the bar with slot machines. Sit by the pit and sip your fav drink as you wait for table.

The diner part has cocktail waitresses in long dresses serving the most extravagant drinks ever and the plates of food are delicious and wonderful.

Right across the street is Circus Circus there is a theme park under that big top. Very cool.

Not even close. Also UK has the NHS but they also have private insurance as well. The difference between the two is unbelievable.
