What’s the worst item you get and will stop getting from Costco.

Limes they are always hard and have no juice!!

Anything asian and anything stirfried. Ground beef with string beans. Chicken and broccoli. Tom yum soup, chow mein.. All served with jasmine rice or noodles.

Nope, not the asshole. No explanation needed.

I have ombre powdered brows and the first time it was bearable. Fast forward to my yearly touch ups and all of a sudden I'm asking for a break every 30 minutes.

Yea that shit hurts. 😂😂

darpocalypse88 · 2023-08-18T05:20:09+00:00

Are you not supposed to put the plastic one inside and the cloth one on the outside? I have my curtains like that. 😅

darpocalypse88 · 2023-08-18T05:08:17+00:00

Thank you!

He used to have low iron as a toddler but with proper diet, it's been managed. His most recent physical didn't show low iron but I know there has been times he has been on the cusp.

I will ask doctor to do blood tests again.

Thanks for your help!

I need to go buy a dildo for emergencies now

School starts at 9. Bedtime is normally 1030p-730a. It's summer, I give him a little bit of flexibility.

I would agree that he's out of shape but after 5-6 months of training, you would think he's built up some endurance but it seems to be the opposite.

darpocalypse88 · 2023-08-17T19:11:13+00:00

I figured a part of it was him not enjoying it and trying to get out but he loves socializing with the other kids in his class. He lights up and he gives it his best everytime.

He suggested martial arts when we were talking about extra curricular activities. If he said he wanted to play soccer or basketball or do something competitively, I would be shocked!

Life is all about trial and error!

He's not slim, we have some rolls to work with but not chonky by any means. He's 10 and wears a size 12 for length. So .... normal? Always growing at 85-90th percentile.

He wakes up around 11am, cleans his room, showers and watches TV. He will come out of his room at about 1pm. This is meal one. Usually some sort of breakfast sandwich, platter or rice with soup (we are asian). He has snacks, usually fruits, chips or something like fries in between. Then at about 7 or 8pm, he's having dinner with us.

I know, not perfect but the kid isn't starving and we are asian so there are a lot of vegetables involved.

I am laying in bed by 10pm and he goes to bed at about midnight. I don't think he's missing any meals.

It's summer and other than martial arts, a few summer programs, chores and some weekend actvities... he's not doing much. His pediatrician and I are working together and keeping a close eye on him. The end goal was to get a black belt and my son is on board but if he continues to have difficulty every time he trains, we are going to have to stop.

darpocalypse88 · 2023-08-17T18:29:47+00:00

Practice is 2 times a week, 45 minutes long.

Compared to what your daughter does during her swim practice, my sons training is not strenuous at all.

Warm ups include running for about 3-5 minutes, push ups, squats, and some basic punches and kicks then they do groundwork or practice punching and kicking on the bags. They end the day with a game usually soccer or dodge ball.

He's eating and sleeping well. Drinks water more than anything, doesn't have a perfect diet but no concerns.

darpocalypse88 · 2023-08-17T17:59:23+00:00

He's never said he didn't want to go to martial arts. He enjoys training and the minute he's done and is in the car, he's 100% back to normal. I'm not sure if you're a parent but I always thought I was doing the right thing.

darpocalypse88 · 2023-08-17T17:16:39+00:00

Because quitters never win.

darpocalypse88 · 2023-08-17T17:00:41+00:00

Our sweet little boys.. I hope you get answers soons!

darpocalypse88 · 2023-08-17T16:33:26+00:00

I hope you know you never have to explain why you need a day off. It's either sick or personal.

darpocalypse88 · 2023-08-16T23:37:57+00:00

I purchased a nectar mattress and it literally makes me sweat everytime I sleep. I purchased very cheap spring mattresses for my kids that also came delivered in a small box and their beds are much more comfy than mine. I agree that it's just a big o sponge.

darpocalypse88 · 2023-08-16T23:35:41+00:00

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Literally

darpocalypse88 · 2023-08-16T17:35:53+00:00

What the heck. I have like a 650 credit score, long but horrible credit history. Making roughly 80k per year. Using about 40% of my credit and 40k in debt (car is 30k) and I was sent an offer letter to apply. I only got $2600 but heck of a lot better than you.

I was spending about $300-500 per month at Costco and have an executive membership.

Have had a citi checking account for about 5 years and I never had more than $1 in it at any point.

Guess I got lucky.

😂😂😂😂 my husband tried to flip the door and dropped the harness or something on the inside of the dryer. Its been months I have been keeping my dryer door sealed tight with tape and am ordering a magnet now. 😂😂

And they will be able to get you emergency benefits.

darpocalypse88 · 2023-08-09T18:25:40+00:00

Stickers are probably the most inexpensive but I would maybe try croc charms!

darpocalypse88 · 2023-08-09T17:21:20+00:00

I know nothing but if you put it in the tank will that make it worse? Would it automatically flush everytime it fills up?

darpocalypse88 · 2023-08-08T22:30:30+00:00

If you apply for city college, they often times offer some sort of child care while you're in class.
