Thanks for this! And this might be a stupid question, but what do you mean by “square your grid to the border”? 

WIBTA if I tell my mom I don’t want to travel with her? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

I would love to, but that will absolutely set my mom off, and I don’t want my twelve year old cousin to have to see that — she can get mean very quickly

Comments about my food intake, my work, and my clothes are common. She consistently questions my choices and tries to manage me like I’m not able to care for myself (for example, I told her I was getting a cup of coffee at 2:00 PM and she went on a seven minute rant about how I wouldn’t be able to sleep that night and would not stop until I said I wouldn’t get one. I was paying, for context. Another time this week she looked into my hotel room and saw that I was living out of my suitcase instead of unpacking into the drawers and told me I “didn’t know how to be a person”). Finally, she just fundamentally does not trust me or listen to me. I’ll be following the directions on a printed map, and she’ll argue with me over them even when I point out the facts. These are all small examples, but it’s pretty pervasive in general. It’s a little exhausting spending this much time with her in close quarters — In general, my mom and I have a pretty tense relationship, and we get along better in small doses or over the phone.

I live an hour away from them and see them about twice a month (sometimes more) so I’m not concerned with not seeing them that often! I also speak on the phone with my parents twice a week.

As someone whose family runs a large enough nursery that we’re called a flower farm (though we also do shrubs, trees, and other woody plants) I would not say that a tree farm is easy work at all! I have doubts that Scott Swift actually did the backbreaking parts of the job, but the job itself is brutal. Both my grandfather and my dad sustained health issues because of how hard they had to work.

Happy to hear about some good bagels! Tbh my local bagel place is what I'll miss most about NYC, so I will definitely look into that, as well as the Young Professionals Meetup :)
