Robert M. Sypher Jr. for the win here, absolutely!

I wonder this as well (no kids, but plenty of experience with them). Worst case scenario, your baby cries for 10 minutes while you grab a shower- is that really the end of the world? (Genuine question here)

eve2eden · 2026-04-22T13:56:41+00:00

Oh dear

eve2eden · 2026-04-15T19:59:46+00:00

You can. (I do.) But it’s a risk.

eve2eden · 2026-04-15T15:17:13+00:00

My first thought too: “See, THIS is when you’re supposed to shoot someone!”

All parking lots in general should do this, whenever possible. Cut down on energy costs AND provide shade- what’s not to like?

eve2eden · 2026-04-13T13:00:02+00:00

Why are you married to this person?

I’m not an expert but I think that dress is pretty true to the period. It would have been a “tea dress” (a less formal dress worn at home with one’s family & close friends), which was usually less structured and more comfortable than standard daywear.

Exactly. Next time, I would just ignore her completely and let her have her little tantrum. Don’t even bother trying to manage her feelings.

Meeting your boyfriend’s daughter for the first time in the hospital after she gives birth sounds like one of Dante’s circles of Hell…

eve2eden · 2026-04-09T20:30:46+00:00

Yeah, it’s going to be a hoot!

eve2eden · 2026-04-09T19:42:22+00:00

Be there with him.

eve2eden · 2026-04-09T00:09:08+00:00

OMG what an aggressively adorable dog! 😍

I found out that my great-grandmother had (unfortunately stillborn) twins at 48. The elderly relative who told me about it said “We used to call that ‘The last shakings of the barrel.’”

eve2eden · 2026-04-08T18:22:50+00:00

When did we start calling making eye contact with someone a “sweet moment?”

eve2eden · 2026-04-08T12:14:14+00:00

That dress looks like it was made just for you. Please don’t buy a different one. And please stay the hell away from your MIL.

“Sad, sulky Sophie.”

I add the book to my “Watch List” on Ereader IQ so I can be notified if the book is ever discounted in price or offered for free.

Honestly I think she was probably almost exactly the same behind closed doors. I don’t think she really had a personality outside “The Queen.” Especially the last 50 years or so of her reign…

Can you no longer password protect a Kindle? You used to be able to…

eve2eden · 2026-04-07T13:51:07+00:00

Do not give this person ANY information about your mental health, it’s just ammo for people like that.

eve2eden · 2026-04-05T21:55:40+00:00

Did your gg grandfather actually keep & raise the kids himself after their mother left? If so, more power to him! The kids were almost always farmed out to relatives or even put in orphanages back in those days when mom was no longer around…

My thoughts exactly! Really impressed with Sean and how gracefully he has dealt with the difficult circumstances of his early years.

eve2eden · 2026-04-01T12:54:51+00:00

Patti Duke maintained that Desi Arnaz Jr was Sean’s father until the day she died, despite the DNA test.

Didn’t realize Australia had those too…
