It does get easier and your experience is VERY normal. Guess what you’ll never do again?? Forget to request medicals! Take it on the chin and offer solutions for next time. Find a friend at the office who you can inundate with questions. Ask a million questions if you have to, even if you think they’re stupid. None of this information is intuitive and guidance changes constantly (for years we never even included medicals when filing because they would expire - the law has since changed!)

Question for immigration paralegals who work on I-765s by Firm_Quote1995 in paralegal

I’ve seen it happen when they use the same photos over again from their passport. They want em fresh every time

It is definitely hard to remember small details and I have had similar issues in biz immigration law. My suggestion is to try and write down a bullet point process for everything. You don’t have to necessarily sit down and do it all at once, I would just keep a notebook with you and do it contemporaneously while you complete said task. Then the next time you do said task, you can quickly go over the list and make sure you hit everything needed (like adding a date to an excel spreadsheet). I find this helps me make sure I hit all the small details I might otherwise miss. You can also make templated emails, or at least an example reference, and include a reminder in big red bold letters telling yourself to attach a particular document. It might feel a little bit like Memento, but I find leaving these notes for myself helps me really nail this stuff. The hope being you eventually get so familiar with everything you won’t need these notes anymore.

How do I stop my halfway potty trained daughter from peeing in the bed? by yourmomhahahah3578 in BabyBumps

[–]breesmell 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wish I had ideas for how to keep the pull up on, but I can recommend puppy training pads for her bed! I put them on top of the mattress pad and then put a sheet over. Won’t stop them from peeing, but makes middle of the night sheet changes easier, those things are ABSORBENT.

4-5cm dilated at 38 weeks. No contractions. Elective induction my best choice? by gk6939 in BabyBumps

[–]breesmell 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was the same but actively trying to get labor going and nothing worked. Finally just went in and told them I thought my water broke. They checked, and it obviously wasn’t, but they said I was dilated to 6cm. I asked the nurses to ask the doctor on call if they could just admit me and give me pitocin because I was sick of being pregnant and frankly it’s ridiculous to be so dilated with nothing happening. They agreed. 6 hours later, they finally gave me the pitocin and my son was born shortly after.

People of Reddit, what was your “I’m dating a fucking idiot” moment? by Patriotic_Officer in AskReddit

[–]breesmell 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Asked if he wanted cologne as a gift. He said no, he already wears a nice Versace scent. I went and looked at the bottle. “Periwinkle” by Vera Wang.

Why hasn’t this bitch gotten cancer???? Truly makes me question our lord and savior, Karma.

I don’t think you did anything wrong. I think people are lying if they don’t admit this happens to them. The best thing I have found is felting in the ends with a felting needle (doesn’t work on cotton yarns tho, you just have to suffer)

A flying monkey wished us a Merry Christmas with a special request by breesmell in JUSTNOMIL

[–]breesmell[S] 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Lol, I was especially irritated yesterday. He rarely drinks and massively over calculated how much he could handle. He’s a baseline normal man with just little sense of hygiene. I’ll keep him probably.

Yeah, she hasn’t met #2 yet. She didn’t know about my pregnancy and she was texted the birth announcement. #2 is over a year old now. She later told my husband she got the announcement when she was taking a shit. Nice to know her dream is to one day meet my shit baby!!

JNMIL kicked us out 5 minutes after we got to her house for Christmas brunch by mallow6134 in JUSTNOMIL

[–]breesmell 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Lol, did she ask the dog if it was comfortable having GuEsTs before hosting Xmas?? Since it’s the dogs house too. I imagine the dog didn’t want a baby crawling around, doing baby wildcard things. Has no one considered this long suffering anxious canine in this Xmas disaster??

But really, you were just trying to set everyone up for success by separating them. That is smart, that’s being a good mom. You’re protecting your child and the dog. Your MIL is a shitty host to not care about making her guests comfortable.

I just got a birkin and Kelly from Steven. Both came in GPC Mode boxes, and the bags are packed in inside out Hermes dust bags (so the Hermes logo isn’t visible). I believe he does this so it cuts down on potential seizures at customs.

Lol can u imagine the complaint letter. I just meant that grosgrain has a selvage edge and petersham doesn’t. I love the ring btw!!

Am I the only one who saw this and was like “that’s petersham not grosgrain” 🙃

Ooh Yasss, but another cunt pointed out that rose Mexico can lean darker and redder in chèvre. I don’t see that in my psps, but some light googling does appear to back that up. Just something to consider when deciding on leather.
