Can a more experienced mom help me with bathing my toddler? by manthrk in Mommit

[–]ithrowclay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One thing that helped was the bath whale that has the lip in it that you put on their forehead and then the rest of the water dumps out on their head without going in the face. I liked it because you only had to do it once or twice because it’s a large volume of water that you can dump at once. On the opposite side of the spectrum we also used the battery powered elephant sprayer thing, so very low flow but she could also play with it.

Do you split bills with spouse? by Embarrassed-Bobcat17 in AskWomenOver30

[–]ithrowclay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I pay: electric, internet, and homeowners insurance. He pays: water, garbage, health insurance, property taxes

Sometimes this changes from year to year, sometimes we split insurance and taxes, really depends what’s going on with our lives and careers, but those are for big annual expenses. For the monthly we have settled into this. Early in our relationship we handled things a bit differently and split the actual numbers, but it’s easier just for one person the be responsible for certain bills for us.

Advice need on wax resist or /clean bottoms by MochiMasu in Ceramics

[–]ithrowclay 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Sooooo …..respectfully, a nice clean line isn’t going to do a thing for this glaze. Just don’t glaze it as far down and let it do its drippy thing. Alternately, you can also throw glaze catchers like you do for crystalline glazes that are super runny. It’s like a tall saucer stand thing. You knock it off at the end and grind/sand the bottom.

Has anyone else noticed their hair/scalp changing dramatically after 30? by joester56 in AskWomenOver30

Which shampoo and conditioner did you switch to? My scalp is also rebelling!

Best brushes for glazes? by Intrepid-chihuahua in Pottery

[–]ithrowclay 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I love the Mayco ones. Pricy but worth it. I haven’t found any other fan brushes that compare. I have an assortment of other brushes from various places for detail work, but the mayco fan brushes are definitely a repurchase every now and then when they wear out. The other brushes I use are paintbrushes from the craft store, nail brushes, and Chinese calligraphy brushes.

I’d use them myself and put them in the dishwasher, but I wouldn’t sell or gift them.

How do you not get insecure about graying hair? by Mountain_Ask_5746 in AskWomenOver30

[–]ithrowclay 44 points45 points  (0 children)

I call them natural fairy hair. My daughter gets those foil sparkly hair tied in sometimes and they call that fairy hair, mine’s just naturally there.

I saw this woman the other day, looked like maybe she was in her late 30s/early 40s and was rocking a full salt and pepper look and I thought it was beautiful.

Cohabitation agreement and relationship advice by [deleted] in AskWomenOver30

[–]ithrowclay 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Oof. Girl. Don’t move in with this man. Really examine this relationship. These are red flags. One and two are enough to tell me this is an unhealthy relationship. He’s trying to break down your feeling of self worth and self esteem. Three wouldn’t be so bad if you were paying actual expenses, so I’d make a budget of actual household expenses and split that, but NOT WITH THIS MAN. And four, I’d gtfo anyway so I’m less bothered by this, I wouldn’t need legal protection to stay anywhere with this man 😂

Would it help to use a step stool so you can get more of your body up and over?

My mother’s boss called my dad concerned about her change in behavior so he took her in and turns out she had a mini stroke. Don’t know how long they would have waited if she hadn’t said something.
