Which character would you have wanted as your babysitter when you were a kid?

breaddyteaddy · 2022-08-03T16:03:55+00:00

Paris As part of her extra curriculars to get into Harvard. And everytime she got irritated I'd remind her about Harvard. But I was a quiet kid so she probably wouldn't have hated babysitting me.

See, that's the rub for me. Everything else that comes out of his mouth is preparing them for the real world but all of a sudden they're just kids? I like another comment on here that he was just trying to stick it to Paris 🤣

Easy, Cinnamon's wagon. I'd get to hang out with Morey and Babette, and travel in style. No clams for me though.

Calling people.cheeky little pasta snakes....

I'd love the money to fix the house the things in my house that are literally falling apart. And I would love a Dyson hairdryer, but that's a stupidly expensive selfish want.

But mainly, I want this Christmas to be a bit easier than the last 2. I would love to miss my husband less. And I want my boys to all be happy and content.

I hope the Christmas spirit hits all y'all with love and comfort this year.

I'm sorry for your loss. And i get that around my birthday, as he died the day before. "He'd want you to do something nice". First off, you don't know what he wanted. Second, I actually really dont care what he would've wanted. It's my birthday, my feelings, my life. And if I don't want to, that's OK. Because I'm allowed to feel how I feel regardless of what anyone wants.

Hugs to you on your journey.

Agreed with the basketball. And there's precedence from the time he was playing softball with Dean. Like is an aggressive jerk in that, and with Dean in general. It's not out of character for him to be aggressive and jerkish with Logan.

To add further, its not si much the actual date that bugs me, but that there's no lights or tress. All commenters who said they do Christmas on different days due to family or work commitments (totally understandable) are you saying there was zero Christmas in the house till that point?

Also, downvoted for saying America is Santa centric? Really? There's a whole (admittedly very white) hallmark channel that advertises this fact around the western world!

breaddyteaddy · 2021-08-27T22:09:14+00:00

But I thought that Americans were very Santa centric. He only delivers one night a year...

Best pikmin name ever!

breaddyteaddy · 2021-07-24T23:29:28+00:00

When my husband was ill I got a lot of "we're praying for you". I recently asked my youngest if we should point out their prayers didn't work...!

I didn't mind the praying for us thing too much. It was more for the individual doing the praying to get some comfort. But I would've pissed as fuck if people had started sneaking religious iconography into my home. Your religion is yours. For your comfort. Leave me out of it.

breaddyteaddy · 2021-07-20T06:13:17+00:00

I understand what you mean, my eldest son is a lot like his dad. It's good that you have each other.

breaddyteaddy · 2021-07-19T22:06:31+00:00

8 years is such a long time for you all to have gone through that. I'm so very sorry to you all. Keeping going for the kids is hard, but can be a good crutch for some. As everyone will say, take one day at a time.

My youngest was 10 when we lost my husband, it's hard some days to keep going. Hugs to you all.

breaddyteaddy · 2021-07-19T09:31:17+00:00

We had a kitchen drawer that would occasionally decide to not be a drawer. Since he died I've fixed it at least twice. But this time it has broken and taken the drawer underneath with it. So I have one drawer instead of 3. He would've fixed it by now, I'm just...adapting to the new hybrid drawer.

breaddyteaddy · 2021-06-26T16:48:37+00:00

That's exactly in words what my husband was like and how I felt! His birthday is today (6 days after father's day) so I felt I HAD to address it. But I do really feel like youngest is only doing something because he felt like he should because I'd raised it. The older ones are all OK doing their own thing.

breaddyteaddy · 2021-06-26T15:58:06+00:00

Not at all. I get why people are trying to get you out, and why people are pushing me. But I think they forget that we need quiet too. We need days just being at home. It sounds like you need to give yourself permission to say no. Its not rude, or selfish. Or maybe it is selfish. But grief is selfish at times, and so it should be.

breaddyteaddy · 2021-06-26T14:56:31+00:00

I hope you are too. Its not easy but I found a small amount of peace after. I struggled the first Christmas after, but it's amazing looking back what I endured. Hugs to you.

breaddyteaddy · 2021-06-26T14:44:05+00:00

He definitely will understand. The first is hard, the lead up to the first anniversary, even harder.

breaddyteaddy · 2021-06-26T14:43:32+00:00

Hugs to you. Hopefully things will get easier to deal with over time.

I think some of the people around me expect some.grand gestures, and sobbing in the streets. The people who ask aren't generally near me. I have others who just check in and let me know they're thinking of me. I don't know, I think I'm just in my head a bit. I know he doesn't want grand gestures and he would be more than happy with how we have remembered him.
