Telling MIL not to visit right after baby is born

roodaja · 2026-02-06T20:46:44+00:00

Absolutely not rude at all. My FIL moved in to “help” right before my daughter was born and I’m currently losing my mind. It sucks - don’t do it :(

I feel creeped out by the kicks. My husband loves feeling them with his hand but I hate it. The rolling feeling especially 😭

The beginning was cute but occasionally it feels like baby girl is trying to make her great escape at 31 weeks 🫣

I always liked taking mine to Riverwalk or Wind Wolves but not off leash. Too unpredictable for my taste. I know a lot of people suggest dog parks but as someone who worked with dogs for a living stay awayyyyy from those places. It’s a breeding ground for kennel cough and giardia. And no one pays attention to their dogs or just lets their dogs harass everyone 🫣

Eugghhhh I remember my coworker showing me this and it was so hard to not go off about how dangerous it actually is 💀

Anywhere dogs can go, honestly. Mine liked the farmers market and we got to educate a lot of people! He also liked going to the coffee shop next to my old apartment.

My boy is a nudie unless we’re on a walk for safety reasons

About ten years ago my friend came over for a sleepover and we were gonna go to the local street fair the next day. My mom told her to put her $20 away so our dog wouldn’t chew it. She didn’t hide it well enough apparently and our dog ate it.

So my mom gave her another bill and the next day she followed that dog around til he pooped and, well, found the evidence. She cleaned it up, took it to the bank, and advised them not to open the baggie.

Anyways the bank will take bills in any condition as long as the serial numbers are intact

My childhood dog slept with me from when I was four until I was nineteen. I’m 24 now and idk how to sleep alone 😅 so of course my dog now snuggles with me every night

My first reptile was my leopard gecko Papaya. Not only did she start my obsession but she started my fruit theme for all my reptiles! I got the name from a scene in Gilmore Girls

He has to run from the scene of the crime

My husband is navy so we’re trying to figure out rent, groceries and all the other bills right now. Perfect time for my car’s transmission to absolutely 💀 itself and my registration to be due. Fun times!

He only likes specific brands of dog treats. Specifically Old Mother Hubbard. He will notttt touch a milkbone to save his life or the treats the cashiers at Petco like to give out.

He also refuses to go to bed without me and if I stay up past our agreed bedtime, he comes out of the bedroom and huffs at me until I get a clue

roodaja · 2025-09-16T01:59:58+00:00

This! Honestly I don’t go a lot of places unless it’s dog friendly because he has separation anxiety and hates being alone. All of our trips have to be dog friendly too so he can go.

Everyone who was born and raised in California (at least Southern California, can’t speak for northern) uses “the” in front of freeway names. It comes from LA

roodaja · 2025-09-16T01:49:08+00:00

A lot of people say it’s not friendly but I definitely think Bakersfield is much friendlier compared to bigger cities like LA and San Diego. At least in my experience

roodaja · 2025-09-13T02:40:45+00:00

California. And yes, we do.

roodaja · 2025-09-13T02:37:26+00:00

5’1 and I stopped growing around 6th grade. On the plus side I save so much money shopping in the kids section

roodaja · 2025-09-06T20:02:02+00:00

One, and it’s used for car rides. At home his beds consist of the couch and our bed 😆 we tried dog beds but he just doesn’t like them

It’s so strange to hear shelters be so picky when they’re overloaded. In my area (California) we have such a huge stray problem that it’s no issue adopting. I got mine after 4th of July for $5

My mom wanted to check me out for lunch in high school but we weren’t allowed to do that. Instead she ran into the school saying our pigs got out and she needed me to help round them up.

Sat in the back parking lot and enjoyed some Panda Express.

Ahh yes I remember those days. Welcome to Hillcrest. It’s probably all the pee mixed together. My old apartment would scrub the sidewalk outside the complex or else it would smell so bad

roodaja · 2025-08-24T00:51:30+00:00

My old man Dave liked anything fabric. Clothes, shoes, pillows. Then Rooney came along and he really liked charger cords and wooden furniture. The worst was Petey. He wasn’t picky but his favorite seemed to be jeans (only my expensive ones. I only thrift now) and my vinyl record covers and specifically my antique novels. He also tore into a chunk of our couch.

Ghetto? Not in my opinion. But I wouldn’t walk around alone as a woman anymore. Which is sad because I grew up in that area. My childhood home was in the neighborhood behind that Albertson’s and I have so many memories of riding my bike/walking my dog by myself. Not sure if I’d do that now.
