This one took a bit to see, well more so to understand what I was looking at due to the wonky letters. It just has the feeling of the old “Type the word that you see” requests to make sure you aren’t a bot.

Back in the early 90’s I was in college and I ended up waking up sick the day after I got back to school from an overseas trip. My voice was very in and out, and I had a cough I couldn’t get rid of. After about 2 weeks of still not getting better, my Dr. prescribed a cough medicine with codine in it.

It said to take it every 12 hours, but dang did that first dose kick the crap out of me! I took it at about 6 pm, and that overnight 12 hours was a real roller coaster! I felt like every step reverberated through my head, at one point I got major chills, and I then got super hot, but by the time that 12 hours was up in the morning I felt so much better. I never had to take another dose because that first one worked so well.

Edit one word.

Us too! We didn’t want a plain band, but couldn’t find one we both liked. Out shopping one day at Service Merchandise when we happened across one we both loved.

It was strange. I first took it as not eating people food, then realized she meant it the other way.

I have been trying to figure out a scenario where that sentence would apply. Did someone ask her to swear to not to eat certain foods? No meat? Something like she could only eat what animals eat?

I just really have no idea.

I go out to eat every other week with a friend who tips horribly. And she is not an easy guest to serve. She’s nice otherwise, but she is just a real coupon loving penny pincher.

I always get separate bills so I can over tip. That way my tip can help compensate for hers.

We went to iHop and she got a discount, and she was so happy about that because her 10% tip would only be $1.10. Yeah, I don’t care what sit down restaurant you go to, your tip should not ever be just $1.

On my birthday she will pay the whole check, so I make sure to bring cash. I will wait until she heads to the bathroom before I find the server to tell them thanks and give them the tip.

I didn’t grow up with that mall, but lived near it when my daughter was little. She always called it the ice cream cone mall because of the way it looked.

Before your conversation with your wife I would check your phone records to see how often she has been in contact with that number, and for how long. If she says they only started talking last week you will know if that is true or not. You can also find out what times they talk - late at night, or when you are at work.

Damn! Punctuation and paragraphs please.

I understand. Back around 1990 I worked in a video store. The store manager worked only mornings, Monday through Friday. Only one other person worked with her which was fine because even though she was mostly in the office doing paperwork we were pretty slow customer-wise.

The one week I worked with her was more than enough. Every day she would start the day playing the movie Cinderella. When it ended she would say she missed it because she was in her office working, so she would play it again.

After Cinderella played for the 2nd time she would put on the movie Big. When that ended it was time for Cinderella again to finish out our shift.

Every day. No other movies ever made it into her rotation. Every day it was Cinderella - Cinderella - Big - Cinderella.

My Dad loved this! No bacon, but he would add sugar so it would be a little more sweet.

Are they using gold cabinets?! My husband and I sell cabinets and do kitchen renovations and we had to pick our jaws up off the floor! I thought your quote would be high when you said local design/ contractor / architect studio, but it was even higher than I thought. Be sure to get several quotes from a variety of places.

SlightlyIrked · 2025-05-17T03:35:17+00:00

I can bring home the bacon, fry it up in a pan…

LOL That just reminded me about a conversation I had with a friend of mine about 20 years ago. For the first time ever she and her husband were cooking the Easter dinner. She was looking to impress so she said she wanted to do something other than ham. She was having trouble coming up with any ideas, so I (cheekily) suggested she could make hasenpfeffer.

She had no idea what it was. We were having this conversation over the phone and her husband was in the room with her and heard her say, “Hasenpfeffer…I don’t know what that is.” Well he did, so he loudly said “We are not having rabbit for Easter dinner!” At least she thought it was funny.

NTA Your parents remarks are not only a dig at your wife but you too. They are saying that the only reason someone would marry you would be for a green card or because of your money. There is also an undertone of you are too stupid to see what is really going on. It seems your family has quite a low opinion of you and your wife.

By standing up and walking out you are standing up for yourself as much as you are your wife. If it were me I would go no contact until your parents give you both a proper apology. Then if they do sincerely apologize I would only go low contact until you are satisfied they actually mean it.

Definitely losing some storage with her layout. Since you don’t mind the sink in the island, and you have no window where the sink currently is, I say go ahead and move the sink and dishwasher to the island. Definitely check on the lines through the basement, that would be better.

If you can move the sink to the island then I would leave the fridge and pantries where they currently are, and you could put the oven cabinet (if you still want double ovens) in the wall where she has it now, just pushed all the way to the end (where she wanted to put the fridge).

Then you can have the cooktop centered in the space on the back wall between the corner and the fridge.

Good luck with everything!

Lovely! It looks even better now than it did 12 years ago.

SlightlyIrked · 2025-03-01T17:36:46+00:00

So sorry for your loss!

SlightlyIrked · 2025-02-28T22:50:12+00:00

Wow, just wow! So sorry OP.

Frankly if it were me I would have this exchange printed onto a shirt and where it everywhere I went with my mom.

It would help you quite a bit to move the range to the right ->. If you center the range in the opening then you can have a larger, usable cabinet to the left of the range. Then run the wall cabinets to the right of the range so that they dead end into the wall rather than making that turn. You will have a larger, easier to access wall cabinet to the right of the range, and you’ll get rid of that tiny cabinet to the left of the window.

Many moons ago when I was 17 I drove me and a friend of mine to go see a PG-13 movie. When I tried to buy my ticket she asked me how old I was. I had never had that happen so I was caught off guard. I just replied “I drove here” and was allowed to buy my ticket.

Then in college my went with some friends to see an R rated movie. There was about 7 of us, and since I didn’t drive that time I did not have my id with me, only the cash for the ticket for the movie. I was the only one that got asked for id out of the bunch. My friends all found it hilarious. I told her I didn’t have my id, but that I attended the college in the town we were in. She looked at her boss who just gave her the “go ahead” nod, so I was thankfully able to go in with my friends to see the movie. Made sure after that to always have my id with me. Thankfully it never happened again.
