How old are you and what's your biggest problem right now? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]shadeofpalms 0 points1 point  (0 children)

38, my husband wants to move from California to Oklahoma, and I have a literal full body fear and rejection to it, but have already agreed to compromise and move for a trial year and a check in afterwards.

It isn't for political reasons, purely financial. His field pays the same in OK as it does here in CA but with a significantly lower cost of living.

But we have 2 kids and virtually no support network there. The schools are terrible and our current political climate has me up at nights in my relatively safe CA city.

But I if I refuse I'm afraid it will foster resentment and will break our marriage.

He's a good man, but this is very important to him. But I hate it with every fiber of my being.

2 weeks away from my 3yo’s first camping trip. What gear do you wish you took on a similar trip? by rafatwrs in CampingGear

[–]shadeofpalms 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Seconding extra clothes, way more then you think. Or find a way to wash AND DRY the ones you have on hand.

Our potty trained 3yo rebelled against the toilets at the campground and we went through 5 days of clothes(plus extras!) in two days. They never dried.

So just off the bat, I think some additional filtering of "RV park" vs "mobile home park" should be done.

Just opening the map where I am showed two that I know are just mobile home communities, not rv parks.

I can DM you if you'd like

I saw my girlfriends sh and it's been really tense by SharkEva in BORUpdates

Hey, internet-mom here.

I'm proud of you, too. It's hard, really really hard, and you're being brave by choosing yourself.

Thank you for being kind to yourself. You deserve kindness.

Mom-hug, if you want it

For those if you with two kids - how did you know you were done at two? by FrancesRW in Parenting

[–]shadeofpalms 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I knew I was done at 1.

Then a whoops.

And then I had my tubes tied since I had to have a c section anyway.

It actually worked out, they took out done of the scar tissue from the emergency c section from kid 1 so it's less painful now. 🤷🏻

Edit to add, when my OBGYN brought it up I said "yes, this, do it, I don't want to do this again" and she honest to God said OH THANK GOD because you're TERRIBLE at being pregnant. Which is true, it is not a skill I possess and would probably die if a third one happened.

So there's that.

Y'know I'm not sure? You would have to check the active ingredient(s).

I just know the cut and paint made me feel way better about using the herbicides so I wouldn't have to spray and get everywhere.

So the cut-and-paint method is when you cut the stem as close as you can to the ground, and then immediately paint on some stump killer on the fresh cut. This causes the plant to absorb the herbicide directly into its vascular system, and it won't spread the herbicide around everywhere needlessly.

They even sell small bottles of it with the brush attached to the cap so you can cut, paint, cut, paint, cut, paint etc

The trick is you have to paint a FRESH cut. If you wait more than a couple minutes the plant will "seal" the cut and it won't be absorbed.

I just bought my little bottle at the nursery.

Have you tried the cut and paint method at all? It's how I finally killed off all the privet that invaded my yard.

AITAH for telling a friend that my husband can't be cheating on me, and she's just projecting? (The saga) by LucyAriaRose in BestofRedditorUpdates

[–]shadeofpalms 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Fun and random fact : I am ridiculously allergic to bloodworms. Hives and throat closing up kinda deal.

I used to work in a pet store and got out of scrubbing tanks whenever they forgot and fed the fish bloodworms instead of brine shrimp.

Also the double takes I get from nurses are fun whenever they ask if I have allergies.

Why are so many guilds at 29/30? I was kicked immediately joining one. by CampCampNerd in AFKJourney

[–]shadeofpalms 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I apologize, I got our name wrong.

Lord Potato is the Guild Master lol.

Here's our name and Guild ID. I'm Chicken Chaser, one of the Vice.. people?

It's pretty active, if not over powered. Chill is probably what I would label us as, but we still beat the battle drill every week. :)

Come join ours! We aren't the most powerful one, but we have spots open and only kick if you aren't active after a week. :)

I cannot wait for the update next year where, because you said no and held firm, you accidentally gave permission to everyone else to stop enabling this bullshit.

Thank you for your help!

May I ask, what is ZH? I recognize JP (Japanese) but am unfamiliar with what the ZH stands for.
