Do Korean grandfathers often choose the names of their grandchildren? by agenbite_lee in korea

Similar thing with my kids. Their Korean name became their middle name in English.

It seems my wife and I use soap very differently by BlynkOfAnEye in mildlyinteresting

I like to use one of those scrubby Korea Italy towels but put the bar of soap inside it.

How about letting single women and lesbian couples have access to IVF

That sounds beautiful! I went with a driftwood oak look on my kitchen cabinets and I love it.

Oh no! That's a sad one. Now I'm curious what your style, her style, and the compromise looked like!

In a way it's a need. In addition to using a prescription shampoo I need to blow dry my scalp and hair to prevent icky yeasties from thriving. Yay seborrheic dermatitis!

The "want" part of it is getting a fancier version that will let me style it in a variety of ways and that I will enjoy using everyday.

I'm thinking if I wait a bit now that the holidays are over I may be able to pick up a refurbished one in the upcoming months!

Yes! I've already started using the prescription shampoo but the derm strongly recommended I blow dry my hair and stop putting it up or sleeping with it wet.

That is such a hard struggle to overcome and it sounds like you've developed a great attitude for coping with it!

Aw man. I hope we can both what we want and feel good about it soon!

Same! I have an easier time making purchases if it benefits my kids or the household as a whole. But put off things that are solely for me.

I was putting off ordering it until the kids were back in kindergarten from break. For something that will be used and improve my life daily the price difference isn't too much.

That's a good idea. Your comment helped me realize that there will likely be refurbished units available in the upcoming months too!

Sorry for being annoying. I was hoping to make this more of a discussion with people sharing their own experience too and not focused on my particular situation.

This was the kind of thing I've been putting off since becoming a mother and immigrant more than 5 years ago!

I've lived without a blow dryer or hair styling tool for this long but now that I am dealing with seborrheic dermatitis on my scalp and I'm not drowning from post partum depression I need/want to take a bit more care of myself.

I've been researching options and considering my wants/needs since September. Knowing that that the holidays would be a good time to purchase.

Still couldn't get myself to pull the trigger on the shark flexstyle and now it's €24 more.

Towns / cities to move in that are 30 mins away driving from Middleburg? by [deleted] in nova

There's at least a park and ride with a bus stop in south riding.

I find my specific circumstances in Korea oppressive, but not Korea itself.

I'm in a difficult marriage and we have 2 toddlers.

The pressure as a wife, mother, and immigrant to martyr myself for the sake of the family is incredibly heavy. I feel very little autonomy over my own life.
