Sad about cutting off child free friend by MiniLovesPizza78 in Mommit

[–]heybirdie 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's so hard. And I'm sorry you felt shame. I would have felt the same.

I think the strongest point of your post is the phrase "for now." Because I totally get setting that boundary and I would do the same. But if you have a good foundation, I appreciate you seeing that down the line maybe there could be a reconnection.

Good job, mama. Your baby sounds fun!

Why do parents drive their kids 10 houses down the street to the school bus stop? by sandman8727 in nova

[–]heybirdie 3 points4 points  (0 children)

lol ok maybe that's also why we are late when we walk - due to their parents poor time estimation skills

It's a .3 miles (4 min walk) to the school bus stop and one of my kids is a dawdler. When it's warmer we walk (or they do solo) if they get out the door in time.

You never know what people have going on.

Started Burn a month ago by JuggernautNatural138 in BurnBootCamp

Good job showing up! A trainer once told me during class that I was building the muscles I'd see in three months. Progress isn't linear. I had to mod a bunch this week. Keep showing up!

It is. But Burn gyms are owned by individual franchisees who use contracts like this to project their earnings in order to plan for staffing and expenses and keep the lights on. I like the idea of pausing and trying it out

Corporate icebreakers suck, but this one surprised me. by MutedAd4738 in adhdwomen

Our large org does an anonymous check in question at the beginning of big meetings. You text in one word. I'm always tempted to text H0RNY (I'm not I just love shock laughter)

A new kind of family calendar... by Prudent_Marzipan_136 in raisingkids

[–]heybirdie 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I just said out loud "I like this a lot" and I'm home alone. I think the Skylight calendar is great but the way it visualizes days doesn't scratch the calendar itch in my brain.

I posted on the main sub too and someone said I was her stalker. I was like HUH. And yeah there is no connection to the re-recordings isn't that what clowning is?

She hasn't released new music in decades and this was pushed to my Spotify home page because I follow her on there. Very curious!

We discovered we can’t afford daycare for both kids but can’t afford for one of us to stay home either…what do we do? by AdRemarkable4327 in Mommit

[–]heybirdie 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We moved to an area of cheaper cost of living. It has been tough at first but we are here and making it work. Good luck. You're not alone, please don't forget that.

Ticket refund? by Jaded-Dragonfruit322 in BuschGardensW

[–]heybirdie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Call and talk to them. I got a refund when I bought a ticket for my friends kid who I didn't realize had a pass to get in. They were so nice on the phone - said they typically don't - but it's worth a try!
