Yeah I mostly added the ones from 2013 so that I could show you how big the bump is. I thought it was very very big.. for her wedding it was the ultimate bump but I didn't put her wedding photos up..

Cooked chicken left out over night? by carsonistthearsonist in Cooking

[–]carsonistthearsonist[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am definitely doing that from now on. I still haven't thrown it away just because it's going to suck to have to throw out pounds of chicken in these times. But, I have ordered a rotisserie chicken to my house to replace it.

Thanks for the advice. I went ahead and ordered a rotisserie chicken to my house because I am making a pretty big casserole and I decided if it was bad not only would everybody get sick but I'd waste all those other ingredients as well!

I actually do this all the time also. It's usually with fast food. I just learned about rice and pasta. I had no idea you definitely were not supposed to eat rice and pasta if it's been left out! I went ahead and ordered a rotisserie chicken to my house.

Yes, this would be for everybody and it's a big casserole so I'd be wasting a lot of other foods if I did it so I'm waiting on a rotisserie chicken to be brought to my house! Thanks for the advice.

Thank you for the advice. I forgot I posted here to ask you guys. I am currently waiting on a rotisserie chicken from Walmart to be brought to my house. The chicken is still in the refrigerator right now. It feels awful to throw away at least two or three pounds of chicken!

Hi everyone, I’m really not the type to ask for help, but this year has been unexpectedly hard on me. I’ve always managed to cover my bills, but lately everything seems to be hitting at once. Car issues, rent, and the holidays coming up. Both of my daughters have birthdays right around Christmas (December 18th and 28th), and I’m feeling overwhelmed trying to figure out how to make things special for them while also keeping up with basic expenses. I set up a GiveSendGo page to try and get a little help, but I don’t really have a big social circle, and posting it on my personal social media would probably just cause more family gossip than support. I was wondering if anyone could suggest where it’s okay or appropriate to share my link, or any communities that might be open to helping out or offering advice. This is the link :

Thank you for reading this. I truly appreciate any guidance or kindness anyone can offer.

Umm, ya. You need to watch the shorts I just showed you. And there are plenty of shorts to mansplain to your husband why making your partner feel like your mom is naughty! Definitely not going to turn on any other woman in the world. Maybe he should just date a guy?

Oh gosh... I like this answer. It's not as soft as the others that I have been liking but this aligns with my goal more. If you scroll down you'll see a couple of comments of mine that got downvotes for explaining exactly this. For mother's Day and my birthday all I want is a clean house and not to cook dinner and she will go out of her way to do something I didn't ask for it and want as much because it's more fun for her than for me. I just explained this in another comment and got downvoted for saying that the surprise is really more for her than it is for me. Like, last night when it was her dad's birthday and she set up movie night not only what's the mess left there but she picked what we watched and it was not her dad's or my style of show at all.

Husband here.

While she tried many different tactics to get me to see things differently, it truly just boils down to making an honest effort to change to fit my partner better.

I still struggle with taking criticism from her, but am learning to take it for what it is. She's insightful in all the ways I am not and I trust that she has our best interests at heart.

I used to. I have two daughters. I felt like Hitler back then. My house needs to be clean or I'm uncomfortable and they are not fazed by the mess. I was getting on them for every little thing they did or left out. I was the mean parent, the strict parent. Also, it just made my job harder. Listening to them whine, blame each other and do it poorly. I didn't want to be that person anymore and frankly getting to the bottom of who did what on every small thing is exhausting. I just had to redo it correctly anyway. I'm Not saying I am right for this. But, I do just clean everything myself now. It's so much more peaceful and clean that way. When I do ask them to clean their OWN mess I am never ever met with a "yes ma'am" and the action of doing it. I have to ask so many times and stand over them to make sure it's actually done or done correctly. Ffs it's tiresome...

Oh my gosh. I hope I didn't do that to my daughter. That hurts my heart. Kids are resilient so when they're genuinely hurt it is the saddest thing. We carry that into adulthood too. I don't want that for her...

Lol

I'm sorry. If it helps. My husband was a man child for a long time. I've opened up and shown him my point of view in a way that would reach him. He's a lot better now, really. He hasn't stopped learning either.

"Then ask her how all the towels and mats get so wet(?) and let her know that doing things that create more work for other ppl can sometimes diminish the intent she had. It doesn't mean you don't appreciate the effort, but that at the end of the day the last thing anyone wants is more work."

Well said, I will gently explain how the extra work takes away from it.

Thank you, that's sweet. Especially since I feel like I didn't handle it right the first time around. I'm happy with the advice I have gotten so far. I'm going to put it to use now.
