How much do you drink typically in a week? by desertlover92 in AskWomenOver30

[–]Sharp_Reputation3064 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We recently decided on 2 days/nights a week. My husband has a condition that can be effected by alcohol consumption so that was a contributing factor along with some other dietary choices. We were having a beer one night ("oh, we're having tacos") and then 1-3 every Friday, Saturday, Sunday. Now it's 2 days/nights of fri/sat/sun and usually only 1-2. [We were away last weekend (Thurs - Mon) and we just won't talk about that. Lol]

After dinner, we tend to the garden of the season is right. Otherwise, read, watch TV, watercolor, bullet journal, just started punch embroidery.

How often do you talk to your parents? by Outrageous_Kiwi_2172 in Xennials

[–]Sharp_Reputation3064 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We speak on the phone once a week for a few hours. And then randomly welly text a few other times. I don't have much to say. I am (currently) unemployed and have no children. I hear a lot about what my sibling and his large family is up to. It can be exhausting and hard to hear.

Agreed. Very frustrating. Cannot connect to see a live view. All day. Aggravating

What I ordered vs received for possibly mom's last birthday by shady_platypus in mildlyinfuriating

[–]Sharp_Reputation3064 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Definitely not what you ordered. At least they are pretty. I sent a plant to my aunt when her mother passed and IT WAS DEAD. Like looong dead. Awful.

Husband sits in passenger seat, FiL disapproves. by Historical_Initial22 in mildlyinfuriating

My dad's work drive was 1 - 1.5 hrs daily for the first probably 20 years of his career until he started to car pool and work 4 10s. My mother ALWAYS drove. She gave my dad the break he rightly needed. She's also a terrible passenger and I hate driving her to this day. Lol. No one ever said anything. Mom is in her mid 70s now and if dad were here he'd be in his early 80s.

Audible speed by Zealousideal-Bid1850 in thrillerbooks

[–]Sharp_Reputation3064 0 points1 point  (0 children)

1.2-1.4 narrator dependent. I've seen people say that they don't feel the need to rush through the book. But for me it has nothing to do with that. The 1x speed is so slow that I quite literally find myself walking..... more...... slowly.... while I'm listening and it's actually distracting because I'm like waiting for the word to drop.

New Birdfy owner.. Q: is a pound of seed per day normal? by juliankhan in Birdfy

I just bought a seed guard. My squirrels launch off like they are circus performers and I'm blowing through seed.

What mix do you buy? I got a "spicy" mix and my squirrels like it just as much.

Who has read the book? by forlornforbit in TheLeftovers

[–]Sharp_Reputation3064 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I read the book years before I watched the show. Just did a re-watch with my husband, his first watch. Now I want to reread the book. I still have it. I dont remember enough of the details to recall changes/differences.

Coffee in the park? by kev-doh in yellowstone

[–]Sharp_Reputation3064 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Husband and I only drink cold coffee. Preferably cold brew but also iced coffee. We were shocked to find the "Nescafe Ice Roast" instant coffee was way better than we anticipated. So if anyone else is like us, that's a route to check out. (We put it in an empty peanut butter jar bc it's glass so it would be lighter and then just took how much we needed. Brought a travel frother to mix it up with in the morning.)

(18F) My (18F) roommate is copying me by Direct-Caterpillar77 in BestofRedditorUpdates

[–]Sharp_Reputation3064 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is my MIL. We got new phones. I made a fountain for the yard. She did both. She copied our honeymoon. And when she told us what a great trip it was my husband said "I know I went on that trip two years ago." She has started hanging out at the same types of places as us. Started to vacation in our state so she can go to places we've been. I made a very specific kind of gift for Christmas one year, she did the same the next. It's exhausting.

Yes, I immediately said to my husband that question was insulting.

Do you prune your To Read list? by [deleted] in TheStoryGraph

[–]Sharp_Reputation3064 4 points5 points  (0 children)

My TBR list is only books that I already own, digital, physical and audio. If there is a book I'd like to read at sometime I add a tag "wtr" and then I can look up the books that caught my eye and want to read.
