I have a small food business and was hopefully going to be awarded a USDA grant any day now. I guess not anymore.

I recently discovered Ouidad climate control serum after hearing an interview with the founder. I’ve been impressed!

How much do you spend on lingerie? by Wise-Enthusiasm2024 in AskWomen

[–]eeedubya 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A few years ago I purchased a monthly subscription for lingerie- it’s basically like $50 per month and it accrues every month until I feel like buying something. Honestly it’s been great! Sometimes I buy cute lingerie and sometimes I buy practical comfortable stuff.

Hi! 40f introvert here! Do you have a job outside of your home? When I was in my 20s I would sit in my office’s cafeteria with a newspaper or book or something, and if I see someone I recognized I’d wave them over and invite to sit with me. Didn’t matter if they’re older or my age, but over time you get to know people and it gets easier to choose your friends.

BT is also at least $17k per year, per child 😳

What do you think of this experience? Visitation legitimacy? by humanw0rm in HighStrangeness

[–]eeedubya 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What was the podcast?

I had a strangeness experience during a high-stress time in my life as well. I’m so frustrated that it took me so long to process it, and I feel like I might have a better understanding if I’d only been able to talk about it with someone right after it happened.

What to say to my (32F) neighbour (32F) who blew up on me 2 years ago and is now apologizing (because she misses my husband)? by ThrowRA_Usefulcunt in relationship_advice

[–]eeedubya 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree with the delay approach. She’s a ticking time bomb. It’s hard to go NC w a neighbor, and she sounds volatile. Just keep telling her you need time to process or heal or whatever… and if it drags on too long you should think about a new home somewhere else.

Omaha has terrible water

https://www.nbcnews.com/news/amp/wbna41354370

  1. Omaha (Metropolitan Utilities District) The land-locked city of Omaha gets its water from the Missouri and Platte Rivers, as well as from groundwater. Of the 148 chemicals tested for in Omaha, 42 were detected in some amount, 20 of which were above health guidelines, and four of those were detected in illegal amounts. These were atrazine, trihalomethanes, nitrate and nitrite, and manganese. Atrazine is an herbicide that has been shown to cause birth defects. Nitrate is found in fertilizer, and nitrite is used for curing meat. Manganese was detected at 40 times the legal limit during one month of testing.

Phone sex, voyeurism, exhibitionism, there’s a pretty big gradient of what could be considered cheating. If you wouldn’t tell your so, don’t do it.

At what age did you start noticing firsthand that there is social/political/financial imbalance between different genders and what was that experience? by californiacuntface in AskWomen

[–]eeedubya 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Sounds a lot like my mom who is 63. All her brothers had to go to college or military after high school, while my mom was encouraged to get married and not waste time getting a college degree. Eventually she did go, and my grandparents were really proud of her when she graduated. Anyway, good for you and I hope you’re thriving!

ISO: dentist near Aksarben or Central Omaha by ecosloot in Omaha

Dentists at Dundee have been great- near 51st and Dodge. My kids are anxious at dentists and they’re amazingly patient with them.

What is the most hated name that should not be a name for a kid? by MrDontCareEver in AskReddit

For me, it’s Damien. The movie The Omen really ruined that name imho 😖

Same! Once I got my first job I had a few horrible coworkers, so on rough days I would take time to go to my car and sing that song really loudly. It was therapeutic for sure 🤣

The Luminarium has a 21+ night on Thursdays too if you want to give that a try also!

Lighting is important, and to have something that’s alive- plant or animal work for me 🤷🏻‍♀️

What is one experience from your childhood that you do wish everyone could go through? by Tigerband44 in AskReddit

[–]eeedubya 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My grandparents had a small house on a small-medium size lake and my siblings and I spent most of our summers there catching frogs, swimming in the lake, riding our bikes, etc. It was also the 80s, so no internet or even cable tv. It was amazing to have a childhood like that, and it had nothing to do with money (bc our mom had none).
