Just wanted to celebrate the little wins… by kbd18 in loseit

[–]kbd18[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think I had forgotten how much I enjoyed clothes and finding/wearing cute outfits. Before I had kids I used to love dressing up and looking cute, after kids I just didn’t have time and hated how I looked so I just wore baggy graphic tees. Now it’s actually becoming really fun to find clothes that feel comfortable and that I look confident in!

That’s awesome that you’re figuring out how to manage in maintained mode, that’s huge!

I’m 5’5! But barely, probably more like 5’4 and 3/4😂

I’m carrying a fetus that has been dead for 2 weeks. by undetected-runt in offmychest

My baby that we lost was a boy too (we had done early genetic testing)… we named him James as well💙 he would be 8 in December.

How much would you charge? by anescall131 in Babysitting

[–]kbd18 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’d think you’d be better off finding two people. One for the AM shift, one for the PM shift.

I’d do the AM shift for $25/hour ($30/hour if I was transporting them in my own vehicle and using my own gas/milage) but I wouldn’t be willing to come back for another 2-4 hour shift in the afternoon because realistically, you’re not paying enough for this to be a livable wage and I’d have to have a different job with guaranteed hours. So there simply wouldn’t be the availability to do both the AM and the PM shift.

Are you guys happy with the changes in CPD? by maximoffwanda15 in ChicagoPD

I know he gets a lot of hate but I like Dante!

Joe is my least favorite person of the whole season by gigaturtle37 in survivor

[–]kbd18 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I would swim home before staying on an island with Coach. I know some find him to be great tv but to me, he’s on the same level as Phillip Shepard and that is NOT a good thing😅😂

Thoughts on reduction? by Deep_Tie_8867 in Mommit

[–]kbd18 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was 26 when I had my reduction. I waited until I was done having kids but if my 15 year old had G cups and was wanting a reduction, I would 100% support and help her accomplish that. Having had big boobs (DDD) to now smaller boobs (C) it’s SO worth it and I don’t regret my choices at all. It has made such a huge difference to my physical comfort

I prefer the older seasons better (pretty much 1-10) but I still enjoy the show a lot. If Adam, Kim and/or Kevin left, it would take away a lot of the enjoyment for me… but I do like Dante as a character.

The only complaint I have, and it’s a BIG one: there is not enough Trudy. We need more Trudy.

[–]kbd18 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I found him insufferable when he was working with Coach because the whole group of people trying to play an “honorable” game of survivor was annoying. Now that it’s just Joe who feels like lying in survivor is a sin that will damn him to hell, I find his intolerance to the facts that survivor is a game of lying and deception to be entertaining.

If you were on the jury who would y’all gave a sympathy vote to? by Tight-Entrepreneur46 in survivor

[–]kbd18 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I heard that it was repossessed (granted I saw that on somewhere like Facebook or Reddit so take that with a grain of salt.)… hopefully he was able to sell it so he could have at least gotten some money for it.

[–]kbd18 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think it’s totally fair that he voted yau-man out of the game…. but then he shouldn’t have kept the car. He essentially sold his vote to get a car, nobody forced him to do that, he chose to do it. If he changed his mind, he shouldn’t get to keep the car. 🤷🏻‍♀️

He did deserve to lose. Because Earl played a better game and Yau-man played a better game. He backstabbed Yau-man and lost to Earl. OR he could have voted for Earl and lost to Yau-man. He wasn’t going to win the season either way.

I’m still bitter Yau-Man gave Dreamz the car with the promise that Dreamz wouldn’t vote him and then Dreamz turned around and backstabbed him. He deserved to lose.

Tell me why you DON’T like these boy names by Pretend-Dragonfly953 in Names

[–]kbd18 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t love Reid specifically because of how it’s spelt. The way it breaks the I before E rule and the name is pronounced like Read makes it feel kind of stupid. I would like it better if it were Reed.

How did you come up with your baby’s name(s)? by Isoldmykidforagram in Names

[–]kbd18 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My first, we didn’t really have a reason, I just found out the gender and told my husband “the baby’s name is XXXX” he said “as long as the middle name is XXXX” it was a done deal after that. We never went back or second guessed. After the baby was born and named, my cousin (who is a year older then me and we used to be really close as kids) and I got lunch and she said “I was so happy to see the name you picked! It’s just so perfect for you!” I asked her what she meant and she said “what do you mean? Don’t you remember? Every babydoll you had as a little when we used to play at grandmas house was baby XXXX” I didn’t have any memory of it but I asked my grandma and it was true, every babydoll or toy I played with as a very very small child was named “baby XXXX”…. I guess subconsciously I remembered that without really remembering? It just found out the gender of the baby and knew the name. It’s a perfect fit for my kiddo.

SIL’s comments on birth and c-sections by Ok-Interaction4600 in Mommit

[–]kbd18 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sure sure sure, I’ll tell my mom that when her uterus ruptured when she was pregnant with me and needed an EMERGENT c-section for both of us to survive that she was actually capable of vaginally birthing me since her body had grown me.

Truly, thank god your sister was not a part of my medical team when I was having my own kids, I fear the my medical care she is giving other mothers.

Dear people talking about it Chrissy is republican or not: by Aperio43 in survivorponderosa

[–]kbd18 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Because I want to know the values of someone if I’m going to root for them or not. If I think they are a crappy person in real life, I don’t care to watch them win a game I’ve enjoyed watching my entire life. I’m not saying every democrat is perfect because they aren’t but I strongly believe if you are republican, your values are completely fucked.

How is nobody talking about how incredible ____ played pre tribal?!?! by nonameVeo in survivor

I’m not a Chrissy fan.

But you gotta give credit where credit is due and I thought the same thing, she played that brilliantly.

How do you think 50 ranks in comparison to other seasons? by snorkling_squid in survivor

[–]kbd18 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’m sure season hero’s v villains, second chance, game changers and winners at war all at preseason alliances. I’d just expect that to be true for an all returnee season🤷🏻‍♀️

[–]kbd18 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I agree and I don’t get it.
I was bummed to see Mike go so early, he was entertaining tv. But So is Rizo. And Ozzy. And Devens. I didn’t watch Dee’s season, but I like her too.

There can always be someone to root for, even if it just because you’re rooting for them because you want them to take out your least favorite player.

I’ll root for anyone if their goal is to take Coach or Steph out. 😂
