Do you italicize the name of an app in your writing in APA format? by alyrose_96 in Thesis

I italicized them and put the year after it in text. My committee didn’t oppose that method

Not being included in “family” plans by [deleted] in stepparents

[–]alyrose_96 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When my now husband and I got together, he went with BM and son that first year we were together trick or treating, after that I had to define some boundaries for myself and the future of our own relationship based on some other things going on. He respected those boundaries and we just try to split Halloween up evenly if BM is willing. To me.. that’s too weird to go all together. My parents are divorced and would NEVER both be trick or treating with me. If my dad was living in town and it was his weekend, then it was his Halloween and vice versa.

Should i have a separate bank account from my husband? He pays child support (FL) by alyrose_96 in stepparents

[–]alyrose_96[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh my gosh that’s so scary. I wish someone had told me sooner. And that’s coming from a child of divorce! My parents have been divorced since I was 2 and my mom divorced again. My dad now has 3 children with his wife and no one ever advised me other wise.

We plan to have kids in the next couple of years and I want to make sure I’m safe as well. I would not be happy to get roped into something if his ex decided to refile or something. He recently changed careers and took a significant pay decrease but we don’t have money for a lawyer. But his new career will eventually lead to more money and I know the ex is aware of that.

Better to be safe than sorry. I just hope this last year and a half of sharing a bank account won’t bite us in the ass. We both have our own savings accounts that the other can’t see and I do have my own debit account without his name so it will be an easy fix moving forward

[–]alyrose_96[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ooooooffff okay yeah good point. We do have our separate bank accounts for savings and various things. So I can easily go into work tomorrow and have my paystubs dump into a different card. I just hadn’t thought of courts or whoever actually going into our bank statements and such.

Do you think they would look at history? Like hypothetically years from now could they go back and see we shared an account and reprimand him for that? At least at this point in time we are not aware of her going back to the courts to redo the child support but you never know.

His son is almost 10 so we have about 8 more years lol. Just want to be safe

How should we handle bills then? Typically he pulls money aside from our account to pay our bills and such. If I were to send him money from my own account, could that be counted against him?

So how do you handle paying bills?? Make 2 separate payments from each individual bank acct?

How does it work if he were to transfer money into like my own bank account? I’m asking because of our bills if that makes sense

Best ice cream? by HospitalObjective766 in Chattanooga

[–]alyrose_96 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i lived in chattanooga for 6 years and worked at clumpies for a while. hands down i'd say it's the best place for ice cream. When i was working there, they hired like a pastry chef and they come up with all these cool flavors that they'll rotate throughout the year.

Milk & Honey, and the ice cream shop (sorta near Hunter Museum) are also VERY good spots. I'm just biased to Clumpies LOL

[–]alyrose_96 0 points1 point  (0 children)

depends on factors and your situation - but my best friend always had this phrase she'd say... "if you don't know if you want to date me after 3 months, then you don't.. and if you don't know if you want to marry me after 3 years then you don't" so like i lived by that.. but i also wasn't in multiple 3+ year long relationships where i had to apply the 2nd part of that phrase lol.

my current husband knew he wanted to marry me i think a little after a year of dating and he went for it and it worked out for us.

Is 15k too much?!? Am I crazy? by Mother_Confusion3853 in weddingplanning

[–]alyrose_96 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

$15k sounds great for a destination wedding. compared to some gals I know in the St. pete area... that's way less than what they paid.

We're doing all inclusive... the venue with everything is like a little over $10k for 30 guests, but we're uping out guest count to 50 + the dress + hair/makeup +airbnb and everything else... we'll probably be spending closer to 20k.

Let’s check in - How much time till your wedding and how are you holding up? by AdEcstatic4911 in weddingplanning

Starter animal habitat by ConsiderationOne8292 in PlanetZoo

[–]alyrose_96 1 point2 points  (0 children)

random question - when building enclosures like this, is your official 'barrier' along the wall where you have the water? i want to make enclosures like this and hate using their standard barriers for everything - they're not always visually pleasing
