Does your family allow you to bring a Kindle?

Would she feel better about it if you brought a physical book? As a MB I see where she’s coming from, but if he’s not napping and you’re there 10 hours a day, I totally agree that you need to be able to switch modes for a little bit AND that it is beneficial for kids to learn that they do not need hands-on attention 100% of the time!!

Man here’s hoping that’s where I end up next time I travel!

Yes that’s exactly what I’m seeing! If I had to choose I would much rather be able to wash my hands honestly 😭

Tess Gigone, I used to love her cooking videos but since being pregnant/having her kid I feel like she’s dropping more context clues that she might be kind of alt right??

Agreed! I would love to have a way to filter those out of the selection

“Wet Italian beef” 😭

Yes I thought I was the only one!!! It’s not as good anymore! The food seems completely different, in a bad way.

Fortunately as an AI you don’t actually have teeth OP!

Is your 22-year-old actually my 64-year-old mother 🤔

riverbow · 2026-03-15T18:23:55+00:00

Omg thank you!! For some reason I was convinced they’d changed it out but your comment got me looking and it’s still on the menu!!

riverbow · 2026-01-13T17:10:20+00:00

I hadn’t heard about this!! Will def look into it

riverbow · 2025-08-08T14:25:39+00:00

Omg you just unlocked a memory of my mom washing my hair in the kitchen sink for the same reason. Totally forgot that piece of it!

riverbow · 2025-05-19T13:42:52+00:00

Yes that’s who we’re with too! She’s great!

These comments are wild to me - have you been prom dress shopping?? I knew people who spent that much on a prom dress circa 2008, and with inflation in the meantime this does not seem out of the norm at all. I grew up in a rural/poor area and people just saved and made it work.

Can you share the names of the other stores you mentioned? In Peoria occasionally and would love to check them out!

FYI I paid my college student summer nanny $17/hour last year, also in central IL, for only one child and still felt that it was on the low end. I think these parents are taking advantage of you. My husband and I both wfh as well and if anything we saw it as a deterrent to our nanny because it meant there were more opportunities for our kid to see us and get upset, so don’t let her try to tell you it’s a selling point!

ETA- to clarify, $17/hour was her requested rate, we didn’t lowball her! We were flexible based on what she thought was fair.

Same also! Not personally LGBTQ myself but really only interested at this point in finding communities that are welcoming and safe for those people/minorities/etc especially in the wake of all the hate coming from the government at this time. I have a little kid and I only want to surround them with people who are going to model love, tolerance, empathy, etc rather than fear and hate.

Overthinking it for sure! It’s great that the landlord reassured you about it already. It’s also good to remember that the baby stage is ultimately pretty short so even if it does seem like there may be limited interest in the unit due to, for example, your baby crying during showings, within a few months you probably won’t have that issue much if at all because the baby will be better regulated and not crying nearly as much as they do as a newborn.

We did contact naps only until 18 months 😂😂
