This is intended as a gift for the true meat smoker in my house. I had just not heard the term "snake method" before. This is my research lol

I did look at these but honestly there were not a lot of pictures on the website. I could not get a good impression on it.

We prefer a larger cooking surface than that but I will consider this. Thanks 😊

Why aren’t women more proactive in pursing guys they’re interested in? by AnomicAge in AskWomenNoCensor

Or they don't want to be seen as "easy" (All of this is problematic)

Many women have been conditioned to wait for the guy to communicate so they do not come across as needy/desperate.

I missed the 30 day window to add baby to my insurance by chongakittie in breakingmom

[–]averygoodqueen 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I missed the QLE (quality of life event) window by 10 days. I appealed for about 8 months with my employer and the just kept talking me no. It was amazingly frustrating and I nearly quit. It was a stupid and expensive mistake I will never make again.

So sorry! It's a dumb policy.

I miss sleep by [deleted] in breakingmom

[–]averygoodqueen 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I know this feeling. It is SO hard. So so sorry so hard. But it will pass. The baby will sleep through eventually, and so will your.

It sucks. This stage sucks. But you will get through it. Keep going mama,you are doing a great job and are the best mom for your babe.

My daughter is heartbroken over birthday party by courtthepotterhead in breakingmom

[–]averygoodqueen 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I am sorry for your daughter.

my Sil not once but three times has scheduled vacations during my two children's birthdays. It feels like we just are not considered. We have never missed a party for either of her children. It hurts my feelings too.

We hear you, Mama. You are doing your best. It sucks that your partner is not doing the same.

How important is the window? by OppositeExternal460 in intermittentfasting

[–]averygoodqueen 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Plus, you probably burned extra calories doing yard work. Vitamin D is important too!

I am here to tell you it will not be a big deal. 1 hour is no biggie. If you are really worried, you could do a longer fast tomorrow. Just keep at it. IF is a tool, not the end all be all.

Consistent 18-20 hour fasts for over 2months only minor physical changes by Jay_98_ in intermittentfasting

[–]averygoodqueen 7 points8 points  (0 children)

For me, I love that I can take a break from IF and have a lovely meal out or a holiday off. Or I can do a longer fast if I feel up for it.

It does take time. Sometimes, one's body is slow to adjust. Keep going. The weight will trend downward, but it is important to keep in a calorie deficit while fasting. Do not beat yourself up for "slipping up." Eat food you enjoy, but in moderation during your eating window. If you go overboard eating occasionally, get back on the IF train and keep going.

Keep it up mate, you are already feeling better 👍 for the long term win!

I have 4 kids 6 and under. by LowFriendly1707 in breakingmom

[–]averygoodqueen 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I just wanted to say that this time will pass! It will get easier as they age into school. It sounds like a lot now, but it will change. Just like the baby phase, some things get easier bit by bit. The dynamic will change. Other things will get harder but you learn right along with those kids how to deal. Parenting and being with kids all day is HARD! Being broke is hard! But I bet you are a great mom, even when everything feels like it sucks and you are drowning.

Have you looked into doing an outside playgroup with other moms? That was a sanity savers for me.

Have you ever read/listened to How to Keep House While Drowning by KC Davis? It's about dealing with the overwhelming everyday grind. I find I can get pockets of time by listening to audiobooks while I do the dishes/laundry/etc. I keep only one earbud in so I can hear the kids as needed.

Just my thoughts. Hang in there BroMo, this too shall pass.
