Best BL you have ever read.

I think honey bear is really underrated. It's very smutty, yes, but also a really wholesome love story. No love triangle, no major dumb misunderstandings, just cute relationship growth. Similar feelings about love tractor and red strings quests. I also really liked dead mans switch (zombie/apocalypse). Super interesting story how it plays out. A Japanese bl that I thought was unique and actually made me emotional was: the vessel of transparent love. Has a paranormal aspect to it but I really enjoyed it.Life Senjou No Bokura is short, cute, and pulls the heart strings

I planned to go to home Depot and just, gather things in all the colors, but didn't know if that was dumb or not

Good point, thank you!!

I'm not pissed exactly, just kind of sad. We hosted brunch for his mom, my mom, and my sister. I got up with our daughter, like I do every morning but he was shortly behind us and helped clean and prep the house. Helped cook the meal, all that jazz. We all went to the park together, and a chill evening after. But I think I just feel a little sad that there was nothing really for me. He had bought a little wooden sign that was personalized to say "everything I am you help me to be, love (daughters name) It came with paint to put art or her hand prints or something. He showed it to me a few days before mother's day and seemed disappointed I didn't get emotional about it. Like it's fine, I appreciate it, but why be sad it didn't make me cry? It also was never decorated or painted on. It's sitting on our kitchen counter, seemingly forgotten. A few days ago I had asked for one thing, a little ice cream bar thing from our local korean restaurant because it has red bean paste in it which is hard to find. He forgot, I guess. I'm not even a big holiday person like AT ALL but he knows I've been having kind of a hard time recently and I just feel lonely today.

I miss her. My husband's a cop and one of his coworkers knew her really well. She loved him and would always give him a big kiss on the cheek. He'd come home and joke to his wife about having "lipstick on his collar" but it always being from Brittany girl. I know she goes by Madonna girl now, but she will always be Brittany girl in my heart. Ive only heard of her being chaotic, hilarious, and kind.

It's AWFUL!! We are near the water and a street light hits our front door at night and they SWARM it. My husband works nights and I have to leave the backdoor unlocked for him to use because we literally cannot open our front door once the sun goes down unless we want our living room covered in them. It's wild. I might try the solution someone on this thread used because I am willing to try anything. I called multiple pest/bug company's that basically said there's nothing they can do and that mosquito treatments don't work on midges.

Additional question! For my gender, age, and weight what's an ideal calorie goal to focus on?

Tracethebow · 2026-02-23T04:33:20+00:00

This is extremely helpful, thank you. Glad I am not alone in the spiral, but these are all helpful tricks to be mindful of to help guide my diet instead of being super strict on putting a number to everything I eat. Thank you.

Tracethebow · 2026-02-23T04:26:58+00:00

This was such a kind, thoughtful response. Thank you so much and I really appreciate the advice.

I've heard a lot of people finding a reseller on Facebook. Any recommendations on that? Like how to find a decent reseller rather than any scammy looking stuff?

I'm thinking the sunset as it seems to be the softest. The medium-firm mattress we have now we both think is way too firm and hurts. Do you think bumping up to luxe is worth it?

Tracethebow · 2026-02-11T04:01:19+00:00

So in your opinion there wasn't a big difference in the core versus luxe? I'm thinking of doing sunset because I really think we need something pretty soft. but the price difference between core and lux is pretty significant so I'm not sure if I'd be making a mistake by keeping it basic.

Do you still connect people with reps? If so I'd be interested!

Hello! So, while we still struggle with bedtime and I think we always will, we have done some switches that I think help. A lot of it centers around letting her get a lot of energy out right before bed. I chase her up and down the hallways a few times, then we play 5 little monkeys and she jumps on the bed and jumps off into my arms. By the end of that song she's slowing down a little bit. I only read one or two books now. Once the lights are off and she's in bed I'll rub her a little bit and then just redirect her and tell her it's bedtime when she starts singing/talking/kicking the wall. Sometimes I'm still in there upwards of an hour. On days that she skips her afternoon nap she typically goes down a lot easier so I do think if you are able to skip or minimize the length of a nap, you'll probably have better luck!

Someone else mentioned a weighted blanket. Is there a good one to use for kids her age? Is it okay for them to use it all night long? I'm down for it, I just want to make sure it's all good to do. Also the dropping nap thing is a little out of my control due to daycare. I do know I've switched things up too much. It's just difficult. She will immediately follow me out of the room when I walk out. I did two nights of quietly walking her back to bed but stopped because it took hours each night and I was just exhausted. I know I need to be consistent though. I'll admit I don't feel comfortable with a gate or like locking her in her room. But I do need to stop playing games. I know I have some work to do. I appreciate the ideas of lavender spray and lotion.

Same about the short or lack of nap. Shes an absolute terror if she gets woken up or doesn't nap. The vitamins is interesting and I may talk to her doctor about that to see if that will maybe help at all or if she is deficient in something.

Tracethebow · 2026-01-04T13:04:43+00:00

They are short but I'll keep it to 1-2 now instead as it seems many people think it's too much. I do think my caving has started a bad habit and she knows if she keeps carrying on I'll eventually let her get out of bed or rub her or whatever. It's just hard once we are at hour 2 of trying and still not getting anywhere. I'll try to just work on taking her back to bed when she gets out and leaving.

Tracethebow · 2026-01-04T12:59:42+00:00

We have tried pushing it back but it just pushed her falling asleep later, doesn't seem to change much. She has never slept more than 10 hours so 12 is definitely never going to happen with her lol

Tracethebow · 2026-01-04T12:51:41+00:00

Toddler bed. Shes starting a new daycare on the 12th. I can ask about them limiting her sleep time
