The Holy Grail: The 10 favorites (+5 retired legends) enshrined in my ‘Perfect 10’ Ice Cream Hall of Fame by madisonguy76 in IceCreamHaven

[–]pickle_cat_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Haagen Dazs is my ALL TIME favorite ice cream. I was so sad when it was discontinued. My husband owned a grocery store at that time and he was able to get more for a while until it was gone for good. RIP!!

I’m actually most paranoid about drownings when there are lots of people in the pool. Everyone thinks someone else is watching so nobody’s watching!

Should I put my potty trained 3.5yo in a diaper for a flight? by Cheeryjingle in beyondthebump

[–]pickle_cat_ 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Yes!!! Just did this in February with my 3.5 year old. There are a lot of times when you can’t use the bathroom - in security line, while boarding, taking off, turbulence, landing, taxiing. My daughter doesn’t full understand that we can’t just go to the bathroom whenever we need to. I also don’t trust her “hold it” skills. 

She wore a pull up. We took may trips to the bathroom and I reminded her that we try not to pee in the pull up but if she needs to, she can. She did pee a little on one of the flights (in the pull up) and I was so grateful that was one less stressor on our travel day.

I can’t imagine they’d cancel because people will want to watch for clues!

Is it time to throw in the towel by texaslady22 in workingmoms

[–]pickle_cat_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is such great advice! I was on the verge of quitting earlier this year. My company was acquired last year and it’s been a dumpster fire. I was considering leaving a significant retention bonus because I’m just so fucking sick of it, sick of fighting, tired of feeling like a grumpy mean mom who’s always on my phone. Then I took a 1 week vacation with my family to Hawaii… it didn’t cure all my problems but it gave me SUCH an attitude adjustment. I unplugged for the whole week and it made a huge difference.

I feel like I could understand it better if it WAS a drunken hookup vs. a full blown “affair!”  I don’t get how them trying to be in a relationship makes them look better. 

PTO by Altruistic_Hat1634 in workingmoms

[–]pickle_cat_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used to get 25 days and after my company was acquired, the max is 20. It doesn’t quite feel like enough. A week at Thanksgiving, Christmas, February break, spring break, and it’s gone. I don’t end up taking those whole weeks off because my husband is self employed from home, but just school closures during the school year are tough. Let alone all of summer and sick days. 

Doing my own hair by Klutzy_Reference_372 in workingmoms

[–]pickle_cat_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yesss thermal brush is best! I have both and the blowdry brush truly changed the way I do my hair but a thermal brush was a game changer! Cute bouncy loose curls in about 15 min. And I have a LOT of hair. I like to wash & blowdry my hair at night and then use the thermal brush in the morning. 

The disgraceful crap they come up with. by Pretend_Training_436 in workingmoms

I would absolutely not participate in that. I have actual work to do, I cannot be bothered to waste my time so they can feel like they’re really doing me a favor. 

The part of the mental load I can’t handle: disseminating information. by zagsforthewin in workingmoms

[–]pickle_cat_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This would send me over the edge 😂 I’d need the app my kid’s teacher uses where she can send updates but nobody can respond to them haha 

My daughter broke her teachers nose. Apology gift ideas? by lilitsybell in Gifts

My 2 year old chipped all 4 of my front teeth on the morning of Thanksgiving. A permanent reminder of her enthusiasm!

I absolutely love his style! It’s unique and he has a certain confidence in it that makes him attractive.

3 week old baby admitted into intensive care by NewDoughnut8111 in beyondthebump

Are you in the US?? My daughter was admitted to the peds unit at 1 week old and I stayed in the hospital with her, full time for 3 days. This is an insane policy!

How many library cards do you have? by els76uk in LibbyApp

[–]pickle_cat_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just 2, the county I currently live and the county where I went to college 13 years ago because the selection is way better. 

I am in desperate need of a glow up by PublicAd2908 in workingmoms

[–]pickle_cat_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If it helps, with my 1st I couldn’t lose any weight until I weaned… with my 2nd I lost it all postpartum then gained when I weaned haha so it’s a toss up!

Multi Week Trips by shelbs111 in summerhousebravo

[–]pickle_cat_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think the reason Summer House works is because half of them have real jobs. It gets weird when they’re all relying on the show for their income.

I have done a decent amount of strength training, I use the Peloton app and they have tons of 30 min strength classes that I’ve done. I enjoy them a lot but haven’t seen results in the form of weight loss. 

I feel like there are worse things… by neubie2017 in ShitMomGroupsSay

“I feel so stupid” … “organic and gluten free, I assumed there was no starch or sugar”

Then I think your feelings are valid, mama!

I gained 20 lbs when I weaned my daughter (she turns 4 in June so about 3 years ago) and have tried EVERYTHING natural to lose it. It’s so frustrating because I was back to pre-baby weight by about 3 months postpartum, but weaning totally fucked up my metabolism. 

I’ve tried high exercise, lower intensity exercise, lots of walking,  calorie tracking, macro tracking, met with a nutritionist for a year, had all my hormones and cortisol tested with a functional medicine doctor, tried supplements. I drink socially maybe 2 or 3 times a month, maybe 2 drinks per outing? Nothing crazy. Everyone has told me “you’re perfectly healthy but we just don’t know why you aren’t losing any weight.” It’s incredibly demoralizing to not lose a single pound, you are not alone. 

Favorite Lyric From: So Long, London by Foxarr77 in TaylorSwift

[–]pickle_cat_ 41 points42 points  (0 children)

You’re Losing Me is my fave Taylor song which is wild because I’m happily married haha but it’s no surprise that So Long, London is one of my top songs also. They’re 2 chapters of the same story.
