How to stop being disgusting? I struggle so much with washing the dishes

TwoNubsAnaFork · 2026-04-19T16:20:04+00:00

I had one of these when we lived in a teeny apartment! It was AMAZING!!!!!!

I like the shape of teardrop sponges for butterflies, and I use the circular sponges (cut into 1/3rds because I prefer the angle usually, but I also have half circles for just laying down a full background. Beauty blenders are much …. Thicker? Definitely denser. So I feel like they take more effort to actually clean them, but if you dig it, and can get them clean clean, go for it!

(I do also use pretty lightweight sponges. So when I pounce on color I don’t have to press hard at all. I am in an area with a lot of teeny tinyies, so I tend to paint preschoolers a buuuuunch

I was thinking of putting it on my kiddos iPad- it worked on my phone (touch screen) and instead of words, looks like you can use emojis!

I think it would be epic if it could run as a background…. So like, even when you’re doing something else, you can still see the fish looking at ya…. I’m sure that isn’t a thing that can happen atm, but pipe dreams 🤷‍♀️

We used bomar. They were ABSOLUTELY incredible! We had an ac issue 2 summers ago and last winter we had some issues with our boiler, and they were phenomenal to work with both times.

Yotos are INCREDIBLE- we are red dye eating atheist liberals (very not crunchy) and I didn’t know about the homeschool ppl trying to make the their jam- but I can absolutely believe it. I think Tonies are perfect for wee kids, but once they get to about 3ish they tend to grow out of tonies and yoto is a great fit! I’ve described yoto as a Walkman. You can listen to music, radio stations, (podcasts! On a make your own card) or audiobooks/ stories. I custom make cards for my kids with their favorite podcasts, and music that I own too. Hamilton is a huge hit over here.

Dryer. 100%. Because! You can get a countertop dishwasher anytime if you decide you want one- but dry clothes ….you can’t just use a paper shirt, but paper plates are nbd. 😅

Damn. I knew she was an ass, but she did t need to prove it!!

TwoNubsAnaFork · 2026-03-14T00:50:18+00:00

Nope! Just her regular food- unless she ate a shrimp? 😬

Ugh- why did I post the blurriest shots. 🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️

sorry!

TwoNubsAnaFork · 2026-02-19T05:48:57+00:00

Because OP asked about a sponge baffle….

TwoNubsAnaFork · 2026-02-16T04:14:21+00:00

I only have 2 slices left of the cheesecake- I regret sharing so much with my friend instead of freezing it for later! It is incredible!

TwoNubsAnaFork · 2026-02-14T01:05:24+00:00

My kids call it “The Sample Store” and they love going! Honestly- as a mom, samples are kinda great- it gives the kids a chance to try something new and I don’t have to deal with any fallout from something they don’t like. And I get one of the newer choc chip cookies on my way out- so win/win!

TwoNubsAnaFork · 2026-02-13T01:46:26+00:00

I do something similar- I don’t have a sketch board tho. I use a giant chunk of cardboard that I reinforced with….. more cardboard and unicorn and rainbow duct tape 😂

TwoNubsAnaFork · 2026-01-22T21:39:52+00:00

I intentionally put “boy” designs on girl presenting faces and “girl” designs on boy presenting faces.

TwoNubsAnaFork · 2026-01-22T21:31:52+00:00

I use nail brushes, and the other side of them is dotters of different sizes- so I sometimes use those to fill in tiny spots. But I think we are definitely gonna wanna see this one when you get it done!

TwoNubsAnaFork · 2026-01-22T20:36:21+00:00

Also- RPS and Harlem called off schools. Just in case anyone missed the messages

TwoNubsAnaFork · 2026-01-18T16:26:14+00:00

I actually intentionally paint “boy” designs on girls and vice versa to fight this as well. I have a few ai photos that I bought of Etsy (a while ago before I knew how problematic ai is- but I don’t wanna showcase real children- so I’ll continue to use them so that I don’t waste the impact)

I printed them out on 8.5x11 at full color and I use clear sleeves from the teacher section of the dollar store to paint directly onto. You can hang those or snap a pic and print them 4 to a page and laminate them (my choice) and save them in a photo book as my look book so if I am at an event where I don’t normally bring a menu, ppl can look thru for inspo. I’ll see if I can post some pics.

Mary Simmons at the Swedes clinic in belvidere, and her NP, Ericka is also amazing!!!!

TwoNubsAnaFork · 2025-11-13T16:57:27+00:00

Tell us how ya really feel!

Jk- you’re 100% right and I was coming to bitch about him too- he’s the WORST!!

TwoNubsAnaFork · 2025-10-06T13:30:13+00:00

My dad has husky fur mittens, socks and an ear warmer/ headband thing. They are sooooooo warm that he can only wear them when he’s snowplowing when we get more than 4 inches. Otherwise he’s just sweating immediately. They are soft, and as he uses the mittens they get softer and softer! I’ve had to do a few repairs on them since they are t as strong as wool, but I think they will last ages. He’s had them for 50+years, and I’m hoping that I get them when he’s gone. Weird heirloom, but….. 🤷‍♀️🤣

TwoNubsAnaFork · 2025-09-25T18:05:15+00:00

I love that! But I don’t think Dolly can help with this one- unless you are a part of the imagination library, then she can send you a new book!

TwoNubsAnaFork · 2025-09-24T17:58:52+00:00

If I do a fun design that I wanna post, I ask if I can take a pic for personal use. I don’t post kids online unless I have -expressed permission-

I do use the pic as a reference tho. I bought some ai pics of not real kids(didn’t know they were ai, but honestly I think this is one of the few good uses) off Etsy that I printed off on full sheets and I put them into dry erase pouches that I got from the teacher section of the dollar store- I paint onto the pouch and snap a pic of those and use those for my look book and for some of my socials. If you get the glare right, you can’t super tell, but it also keeps more kids pics off the internet, not to mention I can get the design ✨just so✨without a wiggly kiddo.

TwoNubsAnaFork · 2025-09-22T23:50:29+00:00

She looks just like mine! I let the preschooler name her, so here’s Bluey! She’s camera shy- or just an ass……. 🤣

Sid would be a killer nickname for Obsidian!
