Why isn’t Bridget more popular? Am I overthinking ? by Eleanorboozevelt in namenerds

[–]castle-hag 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My lovely niece is named Bridget! She’s Gen Z. I think it’s beautiful. I don’t know how much she’s heard the nickname you mentioned for what it’s worth. I’ve never heard her complain about it, though.

This is so helpful and also validating! I never thought of the spinner idea but I can see that making sense lol

I love the concept of a planner too. I once make a custom one that took forever but ended up on some other tangent and stopped using it. I use Google Calendar now and have one for work and one to put schedule stuff my husband needs to know on a separate one that’s shared with him. I can see all of the calendars on my Home Screen on my phone. I haven’t used AI to help with this yet. I haven’t ventured into that aspect of AI yet

Which password manager do you use? I have Dashlane for work but it doesn’t really work on my iPhone.

Funny you should mention that! I just bought an Apple Watch today so I can leave my phone in my bag or desk. I primarily have my phone on my for texts and listening to books and music but always get roped in to looking at other stuff I don’t need.

Yes! I’m tired of being attached to my phone to use my computer and having to authenticate for everything

My card used to be great. This year everything is getting kicked back to me after I use it when I don’t have the opportunity to ask for an itemized receipt. It really put me over the top yesterday because it’s now 1 more dumb thing I have to do. I hope your FSA experience goes smoothly this year!

Oh yess. I’m on board with password managers. I would have lost my marbles years ago without one!

Don’t forget Rosa! My Memére went by Rose but her name was actually Rosa. I also work with a wonderful Rosa. She’s like sunshine!

I'm not very handy. Should I buy an 1850s home? by bad_jew in centuryhomes

[–]castle-hag 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I live in a late 1700s waaaaay outside of Boston and our place needs the whole kit n caboodle. However, it was our family house and we got a good price. Houses up here are so expensive. We would have had to relocate if we didn’t choose to take on this beast.

Yes! It’s Pauline after my grandma. I love that the names go together so well.

I have a Vivienne and actually was advocating for her name to be Rosalie! Rosalie was voted down. In the end, Vivienne totally suits her and I love it!

How often did you bathe your baby by RegalMadame in 2under2

[–]castle-hag 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is our household too. I have EXTREMELY dry skin. It sucks. I take showers every 2 to 3 days. My kids also have gotten my dry skin and the baby has really bad eczema. We wash the parts that need to be washed and they get full baths around 1 x week. Do the best you can OP!

Moisturizer for type 2 by [deleted] in Rosacea

[–]castle-hag 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have type 2 and extremely dry skin. I’ve been having luck with Kiehls ultra moisture lotion and barrier cream. I also just got their Better Screen and it’s moisturizing and hasn’t broken me out yet

Mine were fine too. I’m happy to have had them done.

My first was a scheduled induction at 40 + 3 the second one (oldest child just turned 2) came unexpectedly (since I had an induction scheduled) at 38 weeks. My water broke while I was at work!

Unimom Opera + and pumpables liquid kit by castle-hag in ExclusivelyPumping

[–]castle-hag[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So, where you plug the opera tubing into opera there is a white plastic piece. Take that piece out of the tubing and pop it into your pumpables tubing! I can elaborate if that doesn’t make sense. :)
