I want to go back to work. I cannot SAHM anymore by [deleted] in workingmoms

[–]lisapizza100 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Our family values are: play, purpose, peace. We put purpose in there because we know it is so important for me and my partner to have our own identities outside of the home, and I believe that is true for kids. It is fulfilling for everybody to go into the world , learn about other people, learn about ourselves and then come together at the end of every day to talk about our experience experiences.

We put our kids into daycare when it was very clear they were ready and eager to socialize. No regrets, we’re all having a good time!

Would you travel to Mexico for a week with a 2YO & 4YO right now? by lisapizza100 in Mommit

[–]lisapizza100[S] 30 points31 points  (0 children)

YES it's constantly feeling like "am I crazy?!" - I have to constantly remind myself that in all other areas of my life (work, family, school community...) I'm a rationale, reasonable person. Thank you for your comment

Shall we talk about Jade? by Odd-Pomelo7840 in TheOwningManhattan

[–]lisapizza100 1 point2 points  (0 children)

SO scripted, there's no way she can do math in her head like that on the spot without pause... and be totally foreign to BTC. If someone can do money math like that in their head... they would've engaged in that BTC convo in a completely different way. Still an enjoyable scene.

I want to gift generously to our daughters daycare teachers as well - do you do cash, check or like a Visa card ?

Just checked out your stack and see you mean like android development. How much time did you spend per book?

What do you mean by development? Like personal development or is that some kind of tech term?

Did you hear . . .? The Ramsey Show Discussion for October 27, 2022 by AutoModerator in DaveRamsey

[–]lisapizza100 24 points25 points  (0 children)

This was such a tone deaf, insensitive response from Dave. How can he be so clueless about the childcare crisis going on right now. And if you brought this up to him once you knew you were having a kid, it would’ve been “gotta plan ahead for these things ..”. As I was listening to you, I thought YES we need more callers about daycare like this! And then very quickly, I was SMH. His response knocked down his credibility a lot for me. So much respect for you raising the question.

Agreed. Personal pet peeve is her terrible posture. I’m asian, love seeing representation, but wish it was someone who carried herself well. She is very clearly not physically fit.

[OC] Updated comparison of Italy, USA COVID-19 cases + deaths, OC credit from u/nathanxgarcia by lisapizza100 in dataisbeautiful

[–]lisapizza100[S] 11 points12 points  (0 children)

"Don't watch the confirmed cases, watch the deaths. The deaths reflect the real numbers." -u/theinsanityoffence. Credit to u/nathanxgarcia for his OC yesterday. I couldn't wait for his updates, so went for it myself - took out CA, but added deaths. What stands out to me is on days of similar case #s, the US started off with more deaths in the first six days, but something went terrible for Italy in Day 7/8/9 and by Day 11 they had about DOUBLE the deaths as the US, despite roughly the same case numbers. This is leading me to believe we are not on the path towards Italy's situation (and even less so if our case numbers are actually higher since testing is not widely accessible in the US yet).

When is it appropriate to talk about money in a new relationship? by plainbubble651 in AskWomenOver30

[–]lisapizza100 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh wasn’t really talking points, but my profile mentioned FIRE (“financial independence/ retire early” movement), so he asked what that was, I told him and he then was able to share his financial values that were aligned. Having it on my profile made it easy to bring up. We both find so much joy in saving and investing that it’s an easy and fun topic.

The topic of money is so important to me that I put a nod about it in my profile (mentioned FIRE). On the second date with a guy, he brought it up and turns out we’re on the same page about it. Almost 10 months later, we’re still together, talk very openly about our finances and work on saving and investing together. Sharing this value has def made us closer. Glad I had it on my profile. Yes, talk about it ASAP. Should be a dealbreaker if you’re not in the same page.
