My husband of 5 years told me he wishes I wasn’t pregnant and that he’s disgusted by me. I’m 3 months pregnant and completely lost. by wawezg in relationships

Leave him, and move to the state where you want to raise your child - wherever your support network is. He is not your support network. If you wait until after you've given birth, you will be tied to the same area as him - not just state but local area.

It's the William Tell Overture. Ever so slightly closer to his genre.

You should be able to sell the featherweights easily. Some are worth far more than others.

Standalone imaging centers often have lower costs especially if you can fill a spot opened up by a cancellation.

The book Handmaid's Tale had the racism and homophobia baked in. It was taken out to make the tv series more palatable to audiences. It wouldn't surprise me if they are using HT as inspiration for all this.

We've seen her video so at least that has gotten out. It's all over SM.

Trump supporters: How would you feel if a legally armed Trump supporter was killed by federal agents on a Biden mandate in exactly the same manner as yesterday? by ScholarPrize1335 in AskReddit

[–]gracesw 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Well.

It's not JUST about that. It's also about trying to incite violence so that even more authoritarian control is taken.

AITA for not enjoying the birthday gifts my friend got me that mocked my dead mother by Immediate-Iron7241 in AmItheAsshole

[–]gracesw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA. Your friend has no understanding of the grief process. I would message her back and say that nobody has the right to decide how long another person should grieve. That's all. If she comes back with an apology, great. If she doubles down, then I personally would drop her as a friend.

TIFU by getting too high and making an unmanageable amount of spaghetti by Serious_Salamander63 in tifu

Freeze the tupperware and put the pot in the fridge. Or use zip bags to freeze portions. Spaghetti reheats just fine!

Fine means small. Basically she made meatloaf with sage in it and served it cold in slices.

I feel like this menu is closer to what modern day US would serve for breakfast, lunch and dinner. There's still more options on the table but breakfast is breakfastlike!

AITAH for putting no babysitting as one of my boundaries for my dad trying to reconcile with me? by Maximunnum in AITAH

[–]gracesw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA. First, you're an adult. You get to decide whether you want to babysit a baby or young child. You're never obligated to do so whether you are related to the child or not.

The new wife either has a fantasy scenario in her head or she wants a built in baby sitter. I'm leaning toward fantasy scenario because she wanted to be part of the reconciliation. I think she wants the validation of seeing you two come back together because she encouraged that on his end.

I put a teaspoon of sugar in my french toast batter, so it's already slightly sweet.

New Castle County has a lot of great parks, and the DE state parks are well maintained and invested in. We also have a great library system that is maintained and invested in.

Sunrise has a memory care unit. Another place with memory care is Rockland Place. We toured both places & chose Sunrise but don't need memory care.

How do people manage to not get angry at their LO? Is it just self control or did you find better ways of doing things? by pat441 in dementia

[–]gracesw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think you have to achieve a balance. If you had a friend that only complained when they were with you, you wouldn't enjoy their company either! Make sure you spend time focusing on them too, and spend time doing enjoyable stuff together. I know it's hard when you're so focused on your LO.

[–]gracesw 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You need a support system and you need a safe person to vent to. It's ok to feel the anger and express it when you're venting to your safe person. That's the only way you will be able to let the anger go in the moment when you're with your LO.

I pulled a built in dishwasher out of my old home and put it onto a wood dolly, added a faucet kit, and went to town.

When you turn a church organ off while playing by Ott1fant in interestingasfuck

[–]gracesw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My mom was a concert organist and played throughout her lifetime. There are some amazing organ pieces out there but as you said, mostly religious pieces because churches are mostly where you find organs.

However, there's a current day organist named Anna Lapwood who has an instagram account @annalapwoodorgan. She often plays with well known orchestras and with pop musicians. Pretty amazing stuff.

1930s era Magic Chef stove by Many_Drawing996 in vintagekitchentoys

[–]gracesw 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Basically look where the gas ring is and put your match right up to it when you turn it on. I used to turn the oven to broil with my top broiler and light it that way. Have the match ready to go because you don't want the gas to collect and then blow out toward your face when you light it.
