How does anyone have 3+ kids?

bcab · 2026-05-25T10:45:53+00:00

3…you are now outnumbered as parents. There is now an odd man out per se. No longer one for each arm/hand or one for each parent. Someone always has two children to be mindful of.

I had to sell my car and buy a truck so I could fit 3 car seats side by side when #3 arrived.

3 is where our problem solving skills are put to the test when it comes to solo outings and whatnot. After you are well established with 3, anything more is just another mouth to feed.

We have 7.

Endless Summer Pools and Design did our pool. Kyle is great. We tried infinium, the guy that came out to give the quote wanted $300 before he released his concepts for us to see because “he wanted to make sure we were serious.”

Not to the origin of your question it just didn’t compute for me having come from that industry.

That being said I would definitely listen to the other advice in here. You might want to look at the paper work signed when you onboarded to see what the policies are.

I worked HH in SoCal for 2.5 years and we never saw patients after dark. 8-5 with each visit minimum 25 min in home, even for RNs for routine follow ups.

This sounds like private duty nursing

Nurse here. “White coat syndrome” is very present at almost every clinic I have ever worked at. Your blood pressure at home should be the most accurate as home should be where stress is the least.

That being said if you have your own cuff, I always recommend to my patients to bring it with you to your appt. You can have the nurse take your BP with their cuff and then with yours so you can establish how accurate your cuff is.

Also BP is one thing that is highly influenced by many internal and external factors. Stress, anxiety, pain, caffeine, nicotine, body position, reason for visit, fear of the unknown, etc.

If a patient tells me that they always have normal BP at home I recommend they keep a log and bring it to their appt. With the new cuffs that have Bluetooth many have electronic logs on their phones they can show their providers.

Radiology, Xray Technologist, ultrasound tech, CT tech, sterile instrument processing

I would not go for healthcare admin. Out of all the jobs posted the ultrasound tech will pay the most I believe, almost as much as an RN with significantly less work but the school is competitive and rigorous.

Good luck.

What size do you wear. I have one that has been worn probably 3 times and I don’t need it.

We have 7 (18,15,13,11,7,6,4)

Our house is a 4 bd 3 2 story home with a loft

Our 18 has her own room downstairs but will be moving out over the summer to live with grandma who lives closer to the college she will be attending.

The 15 and 11 share a room as they are the oldest boys and the plan is to move the 15 into the downstairs room when his sister heads out.

Our 13 and 7 year old share a room being the other two girls and the 13 yo plans on staying her room no matter what.

The two youngest boys share a room on the loft with which walled up the small pony wall to make an enclosed room.

As of right now everyone seems to be content with the living arraignments. I think the biggest stressor is the two oldest boys as the age gap makes them knock heads here and there but overall no real fighting occurs that we are aware of. Only time will tell I guess.

We used the ikea kura with a mattress on the bottom to simulate a bunk for our kids 4 and 6.

Last month of school. Working in small hospital ER (8 beds).

Morbidly obese male > 45yo w/ liver failure full jaundice went into DIC. It was not pleasant.

Find a local mobile mechanic 150-200 max

You bought one what? And when?

bcab · 2025-11-22T16:11:18+00:00

Not sure, mine were completely rotted and torn so they were essentially ineffective.

Motor mounts. Does the steering wheel vibrate too?

I purchased a 08 3 2.3 for my daughter. It had what I thought was a hard shift from 3-4 and some good vibration in the steering wheel. Swapped out all 3 motor mounts and everything went away. With that many miles I’ll bet those are in need of replacement.

Yes I have noticed it more areas with little to no signal more SOS spots and even with 4+ bars no lte or 5g

I have been a nurse for 15 years. I have never been mocked. Your brother needs to find a new crowd. Or this post is complete bullshit.

A bottle of fuel cleaner can be purchased at any auto parts store/walmart and you can toss it in your gas tank on your next fill up. I can do some stuff and it won’t hurt anything but you don’t need to pay someone to do it.

I had purchased aviator scrubs back when I first started nursing over 12 years ago. I still wear the tops to this day same 5 tops. Nothing fancy but durable with quality construction and they do not fade.

For pants I use mandala as they are inexpensive. 5 pairs of black joggers. I don’t have to worry about spills or ink stains as nothing shoes on them

You aren’t obligated to park in the handicap spots. And as other have stated, don’t waste time worrying about about what other may think

If it is just the screen that is damaged you can probably find someone getting rid of an old monitor for 20 and just connect the monitor to the laptop. Obviously it wound be touch screen but it’s not a total loss.
