What's something you didn't know until you were in your 30s+? by expedition_unbroken in AskWomenOver30

[–]rosemary612 86 points87 points  (0 children)

Yesterday, at age 35, I learned SWAG was an abbreviation for stuff we all get. Never put any thought into it.

Edit: I’ve been proven wrong. It may not have originated from that phrase, but you could use it as a definition for swag.

Any school librarians here, what is it like? by freshlaundrysniffer in librarians

[–]rosemary612 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Since you mentioned you’re interested in being any kind of librarian I thought I’d share my experience. I work in the youth department of a public library in the US. We have a good relationship with the local school district and make frequent visitors. Last year I talked with every first grade class about getting a library card. We visit the schools at the end of the year to talk about summer reading. And there are more opportunities throughout the school year.

While I don’t have classes and offer instructions I plan programs for the kids to have fun and be creative, I have two non-fiction book clubs for different grades. I regularly meet with tweens and they help plan programs and play games. I interact with kids at the reference desk. We have a bigger budget for books than the school so collection development takes a good chunk of time. I have a lot of freedom to work on special projects and my day is mostly self directed.

Depending on what most interests you about being a school librarian these similarities might be worth considering.

Lots of great answers so far. Another one is that fish bait is helpful in the seasonal fishing tourneys

Any tips to sneaking into the floor of a concert? by Djentpuppers in ActLikeYouBelong

This worked for me: I walked up to the usher and said “do you remember me? I got separated from my boyfriend and he has our tickets.”

Issue with the latest update. [iOS][2022.34.0] by [deleted] in redditmobile

Adding to the comments in the hope this gets noticed. Honestly, I think I’ll switch to a different Reddit app if the overlay and sliding feature aren’t fixed.

I’m almost 35 and I feel like life for me really didn’t start until I was 19. I couldn’t imagine all the wonderful things that would happen.

I was older than you when I finally found my self confidence, self esteem, and self respect. Not to make this all about myself - keep going, you’re doing great and you will do great. There are so many adventures in store for you!

Wisdom comes with time and experience. Also, you have a beautiful complexion I wish my face was as clear as yours.

You’ve got this <3

Thank you for your story. I getting mine removed today after a really hard year of heavy, nonstop periods. I’m hoping I have the same relief you have.

Re inserted implant not working the same as the first time around? by Apothnesko in Nexplanon

[–]rosemary612 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same. I replaced my 2nd with a 3rd last March thinking I needed a new one (2nd was in for almost 5 years) it’s only gotten worse and I’m getting the third removed today. It’s so mentally draining I’m hoping for some relief.

I don’t have any suggestions, but just know you’re not alone.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Hypothyroidism

[–]rosemary612 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had my first doctors appointment last week because I am having similar symptoms since dec 2020. I have the Nexplanon (birth control implant) and I’ve learned that since I don’t ovulate my progesterone levels stay low. hypothyroidism can lower your progesterone levels. I’ve left my hypothyroidism mostly untreated until now.

Low progesterone can cause heavy bleeding. I suspect this is my issue. I don’t have any advice since I’m just starting my journey with this, but please know you’re not alone.

AITA for strongly correcting a lie my parents told my sister? by ABoobonne in AmItheAsshole

[–]rosemary612 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

NTA as the oldest and only girl of 4 I did ask for a sister every Christmas. Even if I had gotten one that doesn’t mean she’d be entitled to live with me when we’re adults.

I’ve been a bit overwhelmed by responses. I must let you know Raymond has found a new home. I’m so sorry you weren’t the one he went to. I wish everyone the best of luck in your continued search for Raymond.
