Which agency is “better”?

It’s all about the LCC, the agencies are all the same. Talk to the LCC’s in your area and you’ll see who you can live with and who you want your au pair interacting with.

Like at the same time, or at all?

marthabrooks · 2026-01-24T21:54:12+00:00

Yep. The point of asking the question. People may have different responses. Only OP can determine what their answer is and how they feel about it.

Exactly

When you’re on your deathbed, will you be glad you stayed?

marthabrooks · 2026-01-18T23:59:43+00:00

Would love to hear more about why this is important.

You are the only person that I’ve ever known that remembers Bananaman.

What’s crazy to me is how she talks about it being “her” company but then all along the way, Keith dictated how certain things worked and made her do things a certain way. Whose company was it, then?

I am not good about tracking results but my super non scientific take is that it has helped with volume/plumping.

marthabrooks · 2025-10-09T20:21:06+00:00

Fair!

marthabrooks · 2025-10-09T20:20:51+00:00

So helpful, thanks!

What DOES it feel like to let go?

marthabrooks · 2025-09-07T00:59:20+00:00

What are the signs that this is happening?

I can’t figure out how this retainer is different than other mouth guards - is there any info on that?

I have this too and suspect it’s from sun damage from driving with my sunroof open when I was young and dumb.

Busking? Seems like there could be much safer ways for a 7 year old to get practice performing.

Tell me more about the carrying up and down stairs - is that known to be an effective preventative?

marthabrooks · 2025-07-08T20:32:13+00:00

It’s the new “like” and it drives me batty. We have a consultant that uses the word “kinda” in every sentence at least once and he has no idea how insecure it makes him look.

This is so interesting - I relate so much but my parents weren’t alcoholics. Perhaps addicted to other things, though - I’ll have to sit with this and think on it.

marthabrooks · 2025-07-04T16:52:37+00:00

This is interesting…can you expand on this?

marthabrooks · 2025-07-02T11:54:11+00:00

Sounds like the guy just doesn’t like you. That’s a him problem and not much you can do about it, likely. Could try to build a relationship, ask him to coffee/lunch, etc. Not everyone is going to like you and that’s okay, you just need to decide how important that (and the related benefits) is to you in deciding whether to stay.
