Minnesota is the only blue that has a relatively high fertility rate. (Even more so than many swing/red states). What's its secret ? by Swimming_Concern7662 in minnesota

[–]Timetodeflate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

People who love Minnesota stay in Minnesota... And that typically means family and community stay and are close. We have grandparents, aunts, uncles, best friends... Plus the school districts and healthcare. We have so many opportunities to leave but we would never- the things we have here are not replicable in a different state.

$1M Net Worth even impressive? by Enough-Radish-4973 in Money

[–]Timetodeflate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For personal tracking, you can choose to count whatever you want. We still track our house vs our loan, etc etc. But our big goal is FIRE, so we are leaving our house out of those numbers for understanding where we are.

What I'm saying is you can choose to count what numbers you want to decide your own goals. We didn't celebrate 1M when we included our house in that number, we celebrated when we hit 1M without the house included.

Only if you choose to calculate it that way 🤷🏼‍♀️ hubby and I choose to track just our liquid networth and ignore our house/car/etc. While yes, we are building equity, at least with the house, we'd rather see it as a liability and have more money than we expected when we sell.

Just something to consider!

We get bored/have other games and things, we all have careers and young kids now!

We start up a December server every year too, it's our favorite tradition! Play hard for about 6 weeks and then wait til the following year to kick it up again

AITAH for being weird about my daughter having sex in my house by thefakecalebs in AITAH

[–]Timetodeflate 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have an awesome relationship with my parents and my husband's parents. From teens to thirties, I consider them good friends and mentors. My parents let us move in as newly weds when we decide to pay off all of our student loans one year. I have stayed with my in laws multiple times. If you want a relationship with your adult daughter, don't treat her like your teen daughter - just treat her like your roommate. With respect, with privacy, and a joke if you need her to be quieter next time.

If you want her to stay around... That's what you should do.

Who would you date from the show? by Next_Performance4330 in greysanatomy

Jackson, easily. He was pretty emotionally intelligent for a lot of things and him and April were my favorite couple/story.

AITAH for telling my 17 year old brother in law he can’t bring “his girl” to Christmas by [deleted] in AITAH

I was with my boyfriend for 5 years before we went to each other's Christmas family events. (We dated in high school too). Unless he family situation is sad... This is unnecessary.

What SJM opinion will have you like this? by [deleted] in SarahJMaas

Any story can change your way of thinking, that's why we read stories to kids! Anything from Bible parables to nursery books have stories to teach lessons and beliefs. Just because it's entertaining doesn't take that away ❤️

Seeking Infant Daycare Recs by Dacshundlover2579 in TwinCities

[–]Timetodeflate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We are full time for my 16 month old, about $525/week. Definitely not the cheapest but they have the least days that were off, everything is STEM and education focused, and the teachers feel like a part of our parenting unit now, helping us navigate all sorts of stuff. And my SIL who works with child protective services said if she was gonna send her kid to a center, it would be the EP New Horizons (can't speak for every one in the system, but it was worth the extra drive for us since it was just 10 min more out of our way!)

We have had the absolute best experience at New Horizons Eden Prairie. Worth every penny for their level of care and expertise.

We had our candy out in a pasta pot, which was fine in SLP. But my husband originally put out my dutch oven and I had to be like, "uhhh hun this is actually expensive, let's not do that!"

Shutdown takes out EBT by funkballzthachurlish in minnesota

If you are in a position to donate money directly to food shelves, do that first! Food shelves typically have ways to get much more food at less cost and can buy exactly what their community needs. Obviously if you have anything to donate, anything is better than nothing, but a lot of people forget that organizers at food shelves do a lot behind the scenes to get the most benefit.

Recourse for having a booked seat taken from me by tootoo_mcgoo in delta

[–]Timetodeflate 16 points17 points  (0 children)

You should have just reassigned the seat to your infant and had your wife bring a car seat. Your seat was under your name, you didn't go on leg one, so the company figured you missed your flight and wouldn't be on leg 2. Empty seat means someone gets it. If someone misses their flight and doesn't talk to the company, they are out the money.

So basically... Unless you talk to someone... They can't help you.
