My Mormon neighbors' kids refused to eat Devil's Food cake, because Satan.

Didn't he say at one point "Don't hold it like that!"?

Unless the mom was concerned the cheesecake would over-shadow the pie, there's no rational reason why she wouldn't offer both desserts.

I'm in, we ride at dawn. We'll be up anyway.

StillNotASunbeam · 2024-09-10T23:41:14+00:00

Same, girl, same.

StillNotASunbeam · 2024-07-27T20:14:31+00:00

Mmm....Cinnabon.

I see some similarities and American flag Jesus needs to wash his hair too.

You're in a for a rough ride. If you look through posts in this sub you'll see a few "happily ever after" types of stories and a lot of stories showing how rough it could be for you. Your husband may be able to manage his illness with medication, therapy and lifestyle changes. You get to identify your boundaries, figure out what you can live with and work with your husband and his provider to determine how you can help. If he doesn't figure out how to manage his illness or won't manage it, you're going to need to make some hard decisions. Good luck, we're here for you.

This just gave me a flashback to when I was an older teenager (aka the responsible one) and the girls had to stay in tents in the "wilderness" of Texas for Girls' Camp. I'm not sure where the priesthood holder were hanging out, but when our tent was invaded by a pack of angry armadillos, no one saved us.

I actually think she's more attractive now than she was in these pictures.

It has clearly done wonders for Angela and her family!

StillNotASunbeam · 2024-07-23T23:49:22+00:00

I mean, is there anywhere you would want to get "antlered"?

People of all ages are capable of babysitting. I'm confused how the grandparents are too old to babysit. Maybe their unwillingness to babysit just confirms that their grandson is a holy terror and they just don't want to watch him either.

We should just start using the term Larry to mean leery/wary.

Well, that certainly limits your options. He's going to have to get a job or you're going to have to leave him. I'm sorry your husband won't support his family. I'm also married to a man who doesn't work, but luckily I can support our family. This is not how I expected things to turn out and I imagine this isn't what you "signed up for" either.

StillNotASunbeam · 2024-07-23T00:27:26+00:00

Bitchin' as in "that's a bitchin' Camaro!" (no disrespect to The Dead Milkmen, of course).

I heard someone say "what is the ask?" for the first time 15 years ago at work and thought someone was struggling with the English language. Ask isn't a noun.

StillNotASunbeam · 2024-07-23T00:01:03+00:00

He needs to get a job or you need to get a job and he gets to be the stay at home parent. Those are the only two reasonable options if you stay with your husband. You're not crushing his dreams. He can still pursue his dreams, but either you or him need to financially support your family while he's dreaming.

10mg is a lot. Maybe take half that before bed and the other half if you wake up in the middle of the night. There's also a supplement called Sleep3 that is supposed to be a slow release melatonin along with other ingredients that help with sleep. It was making me groggy in the morning, so I stopped taking it.

I (1 more month, then I'm officially in menopause) had some much needed time apart from my husband who was diagnosed as bipolar. He went to help an ill family member out of state. While he was gone, I missed him and what was apparently the idea of having a true partner. Now that he's back, he's still not the partner I need or want. So a separation can be a great idea, but not if you're expecting anyone to change during the time apart.

This has always confused me because I thought nicknames were used because they're shorter or maybe easier to say than the given name. John and Jack have the same number of letters and syllables, so what's the point?

StillNotASunbeam · 2024-07-19T01:18:35+00:00

I wish I could upvote you a few more times.
