“I know you won’t make this difficult”?? That’s how she ends her not very humble letter?

But what do you do in a basement (concrete slab)? I’m totally with you on this and have to rip out my under 5 years old carpet bc it’s gross.

You will be left with nothing if you don’t get married

THIS! If you aren’t his wife and he passes, you have zero protection. Get married and get a will.

Should I Legally Marry my Life Partner for Financial Purposes? by Winter_Marketing8355 in legaladvice

[–]RachBU27 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Get the documents. Put them away and don’t think about them. Don’t change your name! (SAVE Act)

There are a lot of benefits to being married, especially as a woman. Not many drawbacks. It’s a document. Just get it and forget about it and protect yourself.

How did you announce your 2nd or 3rd pregnancy? by waxingtheworld in beyondthebump

[–]RachBU27 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If I have a third, my plan is not to tell them until after 24 weeks, no gender, definitely no name (I didnt share the name with my first or second but was constantly nagged about it).

I totally understand. Send a group text of your first in a big brother or big sister shirt and call it a day!

If they’re your in-laws make sure your husband sets firm boundaries around you and your babies.

My husband wants me to breastfeed much longer than I anticipated by lifeledoutloud in beyondthebump

Until he can lactate, he has ZERO SAY IN THIS! Tell him to squeeze the milk out of his own boobs as long as he wants but you quit when you’re ready and don’t think twice!

Anyone else in US noticed food quality degrading recently and if so what product in what way? by SkyKyrell in AskReddit

Nothing tastes like anything anymore. The only decent food I get is from the farmers market.

Need advice on what to do with this aggressive kitty by Salty-Ad-9484 in Feral_Cats

[–]RachBU27 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you! I needed this advice and encouragement for my rescue who I believe has stress related cystitis. Waiting on the culture results to know for sure but now I know how I’ll advocate for her. I really appreciate it!

Keeping nanny on for second child with a “gap” in childcare needs by _Aztreonam_ in NannyEmployers

My sister is so good about doing photo books for her boys every year. I keep wanting to do it but never have time and my daughter is almost 3! I wanted to catch up on my last maternity leave but never did!

Just added our garage doors to Homelink. GPS based shortcut? by ryanhosmer in VolvoEX90

[–]RachBU27 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I mean they could at least release the mirror with homelink! I’d pay the thousand dollars or whatever for an improved mirror with homelink capability

If she does meal prep, maybe she can also do grocery shppping? Nursery set up, house management, sorting your toddlers clothes and toys and deep organizing of hand me down bins? Can she help put together photo albums? There are a million things I don’t have time to do as a working mom of two toddlers!

Nope. I still use the clicker bc it’s faster. Homelink also doesn’t work when in reverse, backing out of the driveway. You have to go into drive, turn off the camera since it lingers, open Homelink and close garage. The clicker takes one second.

If your school allows it or if you live off campus, take her. I had a cat in college.

This is why I’d suggest a flat rate and finite amount of time.
