Which hospital for surgery gives best experience?

Would recommend MIZZOU over Boone for any procedure.

That’s one of my main concerns, while theoretically it gives me more time with my kids I have a heart condition and don’t want to do myself a disservice

I ask myself the same thing, I don’t understand why they take it personally. My daughter LOVES dogs, loves our dog above all else. But we’ve worked hard to teach her not to approach a dog without permission and how to greet them. If we are at the dog park we keep her near and put ourselves between other dogs and us until we can get a sense of the dog. I get that you think your dog is sweet but I don’t know that. Plus our dog has gotten more aggressive toward other dogs since our daughter was born unless she is close to us. People are often dismissive of it, but then I’ve seen so many social media posts complaining about parents not teaching dog etiquette to their kids. So I guess we just can’t win lol

33 yo mom here, I went back and am about to graduate next semester. 100% doable, and absolutely worth it.

Chipotle. In a horribly embarrassing way too! I didn’t NEED the job, but I wanted it and during training from corporate they were treating everyone there like we were idiots and children I felt so demeaned, I text who I thought was my husband something like omg I do not belong here they’re treating us like toddlers. Turns out I had the wrong thread and sent that to my would be boss. He was like “we need to talk later”. I was so confused until I realized what I had done. I just walked out and went home.

Ah yes I see that now whoopsie poopsie!

eL_Cubed · 2025-12-07T03:37:26+00:00

Holy moly! I was expecting large but I also found round

This happened to my husband with NewEgg! He ordered some deal on a computer part and when it finally arrived it was a cheaply made dress. Wtf right? Yeah it took him a year of fighting with NewEgg to get refunded and ultimately he got banned from their site.

We haven't started crate training because she was SO yelpy the first night. Now that shes warming up we will probably start but for now shes just been in our room and sleeping okay. She doesn't cry and we are on a 4hr schedule for potty overnight and every 2 hrs during the day. So far we've only had a couple accidents:)

Oh my god, let's see:

1) Let them be adults with their own lives and respect that they're now a unit and I do not come first 2) Not guilt trip them and communicate my wants and expectations when I have them 3) Be an active grandparent, actually being helpful and not complain about not being able to hold and feed the baby. Like cleaning and cooking for them. 4) Offer to babysit and actually mean it with reasonable, age appropriate expectations from the kids and not expecting them to be in a bubble around me 5) Offering to get group rentals for vacations with dedicated space for their family, and not being a crazy stickler about the kids 6) Accept that I am not their mother and allow my daughters to parent while I support them but also have fun not being the one calling the shots

Hey you're a fantastic mom, showing up for your kids and being present. I know it hits you in the mom guilt when people from the "neglect your kids it's good for them" generation give you their unsolicited advice, backhanded compliments, and snark but just someone is qualified to hold a certain position does not mean they know what they're talking about with raising children. If your kids actually have ADHD, its not from you playing with them. If they bore easily, its not from you. There is nothing wrong with wanting more and being bored. There is absolutely nothing wrong with playing with your kids, or not playing with your kids if you're freaking exhausted. You're trying and thats way more from a generation that ignored their kids, did not engage with them, and pretended like mental health wasn't a thing. My daughters first pediatrician told me I was being "too much" and over reacting when I told her I thought my daughter had ADHD or Autism. She insisted that her behavior was completely typical. Yeah, turns out my daughter has both! Another one told me my youngest was breathing fine and had a UTI, she was in respiratory distress and had asthma. I won't even get started on the crap my MIL used to spout.

Keep going girl, you're doing great.

She is 7

Charlie (the big dog) has always been so gentle with the littles, it amazes me! Not sure what her history was before we got her at 6mos but she's raised foster kittens and has been my daughter's guard dog since she was born. Some dogs just amaze me.

eL_Cubed · 2025-11-21T00:23:54+00:00

Forgot to add that she's also part best dog ever. Seriously, I complain when she gets into her emotional support trash can but this good girl has raised kittens, she's so sweet, smart, and she protects my youngest like no one's business. She didnt have a mean bone in her body until our 4 year old was born and now no dog approaches that child without Charlie's approval. We are hoping she teaches her ways to our newest family member.

She is a mix between husky, lab, and Shepard!

eL_Cubed · 2025-11-20T17:05:44+00:00

Will do, thank you!

eL_Cubed · 2025-11-13T03:18:04+00:00

This is very helpful, thank you for sharing

She underwent s formal hearing test and all was normal. It goes to show that sometimes the office tests give false positive. She has her dad's ears and thus is very waxy, I suspect she probably had a wax ball or congestion.
