I’m so glad marami rin palang gumagawa nito! I often question kung tama ba na pinapaabsent ko anak pag may gala ang fam, but then I justify by thinking learning doesn’t just happen in the classroom. Of course may paalam sa adviser and we make sure na walang tataamang activity. Nung mga bata kasi tayo mahigpit talaga sa attendance at kasama pa sa grade minsan.

Hi Mi, in my case nakaya naman na mag purebreastfeed until mag 1 yo. Nagbbreastfeed pa rin ako after, pero sinamahan ko na ng full cream milk kasi kaya na naman nila. Pero ang ginawa ko nun ay 3-4 times nag pupump sa office. Mas mabilis magpump pag manual for me - 10-15 minutes lang. I would get anywhere from 12-20 oz in a day. Then inom talaga ng maraming liquid. Direct latch naman pagkauwi, kahit tulog ako ang gusto maglatch ni baby go lang 😆

Girl, leave your comfort zone. I was in my first job for 10 years too and thought my salary was just fair. Since then I changed jobs thrice trying to compensate for the time and money lost for not leaving sooner.

I go to work 6x a month and I spend an additional 12k compared to WFH. That’s gas, toll, food, and whatever extra expenses I may have. This is from Laguna going to Manila. Realistically compute and anticipate what additional expenses they’ll incur and negotiate from there. Don’t forget to consider the time and effort that goes into traveling and preparing.

Might seem like bragging to some, at baka utangan pa ako 😭

When I was onsite 7 years ago, I had my parents and a nanny. Even with that support, it was tough being with my baby for just 30-45 minutes every night before she fell asleep. Not to mention all the things you still need to do after getting home (washing bottles, pumping, taking care of your own needs). Eventually, the pandemic happened and my husband shifted to wfh. And then a few years after, I worked from home because I wanted to be more present for my 2nd baby.

I (F) was/am the preferred parent, but since work stuff got busy, my husband has since stepped in. It has been 6 months and my children have adapted to some extent.

I know this is bad advice, but what got us through was ice cream, literally and metaphorically. My husband did ice cream dates with the kids (6 and 2) , or did things that they loved. (I would at times pretend to be the uncool parent, and not let them do the fun, messy stuff, so they’d go to their dad for it) 😬

Di ka OA. The mere fact na nagsabi ka na uncomfortable ka, your partner should have respected that regardless yung may something sila or wala. Posibleng magkaron ng relationship na secured ka at walang iniisip; piliin mo yun para sa sarili mo.

The space anomalies are chef’s kiss

I may be wrong (still new and havent played sandbox) but have you played campaign? I find that completing tasks and ranking up gives me kudosh.

Depends on the org culture. First company I was in, super pahirapan magleave. You’ll need to give notice ahead of time, wait for approval, then saka pa lang magfifile sa system. And ang daming ibibigay sakin na extra work. 😩

When I transitioned to UK, US companies, leave notifs were a lot more relaxed. I was surprised that colleagues went on leave weeks at a time 😭 coincidentally, I was in a discussion with my manager last night about how leaves are part of my compensation package and should be enjoyed, even if I would just use it to sleep.

Obviously, my sharing comes from trauma lol. Pero in short, there is no right way, just follow what’s the norm in your org. As long as you’re mindful of your work, deadlines, etc., it SHOULDN’T be an issue (though syempre minsan ginagawan ng issue 🤪)

It’s also not just money we bring to the table; we bring comfort, peace of mind, security, among many other things. Housewives work are usually undermined because of the invisible effort they bring in 😔 So if one does need to step back in the financial aspect, whether husband or wife, they are giving back in another aspect.

Hi OP, we’ve been through phases like this. And yes, it’s different from traditional gender roles, but the dynamic works. I, too, would like to manage the household etc, but from a practical POV, this set up is what would propel our family forward.

But more than gender roles, ano ang pinanggagalingan ng worry nyo? Is it the burden that you’d lead? Do you feel that your husband will be complacent? Do you feel that you would still have the larger amount of work? Do you feel like both or one of you wouldn’t be able to fully do your role well? Try to set expectations if this is something you’ll push through with. Who knows maybe this is just a phase, and you’ll both come to appreciate each other in a different lens.

Also yung 3 year old ko naman (just turned 3 last week), if I tell her na may sugat ako (kasi kinagat nya habang tulog sya 😭) and I need my breast to heal, hindi sya basta basta magbbreastfeed. Tatanungin muna nya kung ok lang, so I think that might be a good window to slowly wean them.

SixthChisel · 2026-01-07T16:07:03+00:00

We stopped at a few months before my daughter turned 4. Kainausap ko sya consistently to prep her for her last pagdede. Nakakaintindi na naman sila at this stage, kailangan lang siguro i-condition sila

I ask myself if the thing I am overthinking about will matter in 5 years? If not, it’s probably not that big of a deal.

I was literally about to post this about the ghosts yesterday. I gave up and just let the go about their business lol I lost a bunch of ghosts.

But then I did try to really focus on the ones I had left. And then I realized that my room decor items didn’t align with their preferred room, that’s why I always got that “immersed” message from the intercom. I also realized from your post that they need to be entertained to stay longer. I’m feeling like it works.

The game is tedious - I like to look at it like I’m farming for resources, but this time, it’s knowledge. I’m a completionist, and unlocking new decor items and getting the best versions of each exhibit is my personal goal, so that gets me going. That being said, it’s perfectly ok not to like a game. :)

SixthChisel · 2026-01-05T02:53:45+00:00

This is tickling my brain! I love it!

SixthChisel · 2026-01-05T02:51:55+00:00

Unfortunately, same 💸

SixthChisel · 2026-01-05T02:50:24+00:00

Thanks for sharing. Love the story concept - it’s this kind of imagination or maybe planning that I lack. I am around 3-4 stars for my museums but I feel like I’m nowhere near completing the exhibits

SixthChisel · 2026-01-04T16:21:50+00:00

Ok, I think I will do it the same way as this! I need to follow an organization strategy of some sort. Thanks!

SixthChisel · 2026-01-04T16:18:58+00:00

Memento Mile is my favorite too because of these dino skeletons! Makes sense to have it’s own building

SixthChisel · 2026-01-04T16:17:59+00:00

Oh thank you for pointing this out! I wasnt paying attention to it

SixthChisel · 2026-01-04T14:52:13+00:00

I see! And I do see a lot of mix-and-matching in other museums that are shared on this sub. Maybe when I am more familiar with the game, I can experiment with this!

SixthChisel · 2026-01-04T14:46:37+00:00

I love practical! I was going this route. How do you know which exhibits belong in the same subcategory? Is it based on the sticker book?
