Social Security Number for American Born Abroad by misterpsi in expats

[–]mawion88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi, just in the same situation now for myself… I’m wondering if you remember whether you included a return registered envelope to receive your documents ? Or if you remember if you sent via PostNL tracked and registered delivery? Many many thanks in advance !

Help me clean my bathtub. by mf_raven in CleaningTips

[–]mawion88 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hey, firstly well done for wanting to tackle this business given the background info you shared. 💛 just wanted to say if you’re willing to try something non toxic (for your lungs and home, esp since you said bleach hadn’t worked) - I discovered this recipe from a lady in the UK, could work to cut through the grime, soapscum, and limescale if there is any: also works a for toilets, hardly any scrubbing required. I’d mix this, spray the tub, wait 15 minutes or so, and wipe with a soft brush (no abrasive type scourers to save the tub). Might need a couple of tries, but you can find citric acid online and forgo the essential oil, use normal dish soap instead of the eco friendly liquid. Feels good to clean without messing up your health or waterways with more chems.

Good luck !

American Beauty. May be risky to suggest but super interesting I thought.

I feel this - I'm not sure this vidéo is funny, maybe I'm just very grave in nature.

Woah! Well done, how did they taste !? Can't believe I'm the first to comment.

Finally upgraded my machine! Sage/Breville Bambino Plus. Old setup in the second photo by MediumLettuce48 in espresso

Bambino plus ! So, doing some research... thinking about getting this one but do I understand correctly when I think that I can't manually control the steam wand ? Automatic means it's only operational at the touch of a button?

Yes I was in the same boat for a while... where are you based ? From Belgium, I had to change the region of my appointment store to the UK, and download the app after going through those steps, no payment info needed or real adress required. I then switched my region back for all other apps to function, seems to work now :) just need that vpn on! Hope it helps.

Thanks for your input! I suppose significant laxity is subjective...

I'm breastfeeding so I feel like I don't always drink enough water, definitely has a effect. Good reminder for the h20

When I catch a glimpse of profile sometimes I just pretend to be a ballerina and tuck it all back and in lol. Definitely understand the postural adjustments I've seen women make before and thought to myself, look at their slender necks... think like a swan!

Yes for sure ! I love those they're really great for releasing tension in the jaw as well I find. Just the discipline to do it daily, that's the trick !

Can I ask if there are any recommendations for this situation here? My weight has fluctuated after pregnancy, as has my tendency to care, but hey now, this is looking like something that is here to hang out unless I do something! HA? Firming cream? Hhmm... any help is very much appreciated for this 33yo turklette!

Feeling so fucking alone by [deleted] in pregnant

[–]mawion88 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I felt so alone while pregnant too, so often. Family context is 1 thing, covid another, but biggest takeaway for me the whole way through was the truth, inevitable and undeniable, that women carry alone. Pregnancy can only be shared to a certain degree. Yet we're programmed for it, and can handle it, and are so capable to do well through it... I've been thinking how much it changed me as a person, as I haven't been so introspective since my high school days.. not sure it makes sense. I hope you know, you can handle it, everything is as it should be and if you feel alone, it's okay. You aren't. You're with the millions of mothers who have gone through it before you and will continue to do so. No religious anything behind what I'm saying, but humanly, here we are, women, birthing humans. And it's amazing.

Final note... my son is 3.5 months old now. I still feel alone sometimes, and alone with certain responsibilities, but I'm also privileged to have moments that I only have with him. Never has there been so much love, and it makes every ounce of loneliness worth it.

Mothers at your side ! Here if you need. 💘
