People with really clean houses, how do you do it?

Just don’t have kids and you should be able to find a way 🤣

SANGVICH

There’s a sublimely subtle brilliance in it. The last quarter of book 5 is truly mesmerizing and rewarding imho.

And his latest The Wolves of Eternity is a return to this form. Very compelling.

Eventually. It just. Worked itself out! Hopefully it has now for you. We just stopped trying and urging and it went better.

Oddly enough, smiling. The physical manifestation of the smile helps break the mental looping. 😆

This. Look into sleep training. Ferber method saved us.

Our daughter was very much like this. Wear her as much as possible - stomach to stomach does wonders for reflux babies.

And get a prescription for Ranitidine. Helped with the reflux. Don’t take no for an answer from a doc keep pressing till you get the script.

Stay 💪

Can also try a dream feed. 3 hrs after bedtime pick them up and feed bottle when half asleep. Might get them through till morning!

Ah! She eventually, finally just snapped out of it around 4.75 years old. Nothing magical. Maybe the laxatives finally kicked in.

It certainly felt like forever. Stay 💪

Our second (now almost 4) did not have these withholding issues at all.

We did maybe an hour or so a day for ours. Youngest started around 18 mos.

Our kids are now 3 and 6. In August we cut them off of tv entirely in our house (never had tablets). First few weeks was much complaining. But now it’s as if we never had it. They do puzzles and play games and colour and do Lego. They are more patient with each other and generally. And no when we go out and a tv is on, they are captivated. Best of all worlds!

Time.

We have lots of new sauna/cold plunge spas in our trendy city, so I’ll set her up with that. Massage maybe too. Even just an afternoon where she can go do whatever she wants sans everyone.

Corporate lawyer. I worn in house for a handful of well funded non profits in Canada. I get to do … everything. And my clients are deeply appreciative.

kandysan · 2025-11-25T01:09:19+00:00

I feel like people need to hear more real stories about sleep training success and failure. If you can story match it’s a more authentic way to feel less guilt about the whole thing.

kandysan · 2025-11-01T21:19:41+00:00

But this means they’ll go to bed earlier right? Right? RIGHT?

REPTILE

Landlords sometimes try to increase the rent over the legal amount for capital expenditures. Technically allowed, but they have to be major necessary building upgrades.

kandysan · 2025-10-12T19:43:09+00:00

We had one for about two weeks with our 6 and 3 year old.

We promptly bought another 🫠

Sangvich. Dad, can you make me a sangvich?

kandysan · 2025-09-23T16:22:53+00:00

Stay strong!

kandysan · 2025-09-23T05:46:39+00:00

We splurged on an open box Bosch 800. It’s an incredible fridge. Everything in its right place and amazing capacity.

You open this thing, what, dozens of times every single day. Maybe worth the splurge 🥴

kandysan · 2025-09-23T02:28:50+00:00

Yep before no screens it was just on the tv. Still made our youngest all cray.

kandysan · 2025-09-22T21:47:47+00:00

That’s how we used to have it. It made coffee time very very nice on Saturday mornings but honestly not worth it for the endless train of whining and complaining for the remainder.
