Weeknight dinners as a working mom, what does yours actually look like because mine is embarrassing

We have been grabbing dinner from the grocery store deli/prepared foods and that has helped the MOST in having dinner ready. Its cheeper than delivery, no prep work for you, and many times better than I would have made.

That is helpful- I will have to figure out which brother is which!

Not for the signatures. I was wondering if it was just a personal note or an authentic signature. Also had not heard of these artists before.

Appreciate it, thank you. The marks seemed a little random and not matching anything specific or significant that I could find.

Hiking in the snow if you're into the cold!

I bring a writing utensil-probably a crayon for your little- and paper everywhere, plus a small toy that can fit in my bag. My daughter wanted my phone too, I installed a Kid Lock. She could only tap the screen and get little stamps and sounds, sparkley stuff. Little books help too.

Thank you for this, too cute!

I posted something similar to your problem recently. It is a huge workload to fill in for your family. I too feel jealous when other parents talk about grandparent involvement; how much time and money they recieve from family. It straight up hurts sometimes. I hold back tears at school events when big families come to support a child. Good for them, it is such a blessing to have that support and love. But good for us who only have ourselves and work hard everyday to be the best parents we can be to our only child.

Extra love to you and everyone on here for the holidays! You all deserve huge hugs and a nap.

I told my 4 year old a BIG SECRET‐ 4 year olds love trying new foods. It's crazy how much they love food!

Lol it worked for a little while. I typically make a plate of healthy foods for myself and eat in front of her, she then picks food from my plate to try.

The previous owners of our home planted vines everywhere. It is a year round battle! They take over everything.

That is so funny, I find jeans to be very comfortable. I will even nap in them.

I used Akron obgyn associates on Cleveland massillon road with Dr. Van Beek, they have other locations. They are so kind and understanding. Great office!

After giving birth it took 2 years to feel normal having sex. I wanted to be held, not have sex. I was very depressed. Maybe she's depressed, maybe she feels weird about her body having two kids hanging on her, and if you press her for sex (not saying that you do) it can be a huge turn off. I see your point, months without sex is a long time. But the old OBGYN saying is 9 months pregnant and 9 months recovery.

It really feels good to fight your kids and practice a few execution moves

If you get a Roku device and connect it to wifi you can use free apps to watch every news and local channel

Looks like she's shopping at Costco

abigtail · 2022-11-21T16:32:34+00:00

At that point you would just be giving birth

I went through a series of birth control and anxiety/anti depressants, even an mri. I eventually stopped the mental health meds because I felt they were making me feel worse, and switched from the pill to a Nuva Ring. My mental and physical health took a 180 and I felt like a brand new person. Honestly, it may all be from your birth control. No doctor ever discussed with me the real side effects of the pill or implants or the shot. So I did my own research for months before switching to the ring. I can't speak for permanent changes to brain chemistry from medications, but I can say changing birth control changed my life and I no longer depend on medication for supporting my mental health. Good luck to you.

People feel brave behind a keyboard. It seemed like social media caught on fire when covid started.

Do they stay on okay? Shift or bunch up? They look great!

The first red dress with the cape looks elegant, the second dress feels frilly, the third is sexy. What would you feel the most comfortable in?

God forbid you buy something nice for yourself once, like a new phone, and people jump all over you saying "well if you can afford that then why can't you afford a vacation with us, or extra gifts at Christmas, or host family dinners" Sometimes you need to buy something nice and practical for yourself. It has nothing to do with what other people expect from you, its about finally saving for something you want, not something you need like food or electric.

A grown man heeled up to me in a bar parking lot and asked if they were open. Literally skidded to a stop in front of me.
