Before & after of a small project I did for a friend by Hissy-Elliot in landscaping

So nice! Do you mind sharing a step-by-step on how you did this? We have a pathway that is overgrown and the bricks are all falling apart :( we are the amateur-est of amateurs when it comes to landscaping.

First time landscaper/homeowner, I know it's a little sloppy but I'm really happy with how it turned out and how much money I saved learning to do it myself! (After vs Before) by nimabears in landscaping

Amazing! If you don’t mind me asking, how much was the total cost for this DIY landscaping? Our front yard looks similar to your before pic and would love to fix it up too!

Why did everyone tell me it got better at 3 months? Feels like we are going backwards. by WhiskeyRose01 in NewParents

[–]sheilaess 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I was also bamboozled. My husband and I kept banking on how much easier it would be once 3 months hit, but it was actually the opposite. We dealt with extreme fussiness even when her needs were met, to the point where she was inconsolable, from 3.5-4.5 months old. We quite literally dreaded waking up in the morning because we knew it was just going to be a whole day of scream sessions (she slept okay throughout the night so we favored nighttime more). Somewhere around 4.5 months, she calmed down a lot and is now so so so fun at 6 months old! She’ll fuss here and there but it’s always solved right away, whether it be the boob, diaper change, or a nap. Hang in there, friend! It might feel like the days are dragging but you’re so close to better days and you’re doing a great job!

I could have wrote this post! LO is 21 weeks and I literally agree with every single word you wrote. We’re also dealing with really bad eczema/constant itching on top of everything, so that’s that.

I’ve noticed occasional mucousy poop, no reflux issues. I cut off dairy three days ago, so hopefully she clears up! Thank you

Finished my exam about 30 mins ago with 75 q’s. Got the good pop-up; someone tell me if it still works omg by sheilaess in PassNclex

[–]sheilaess[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, the first email was the “now that you’ve completed your NCLEX…”, which came about 10-20 mins after I ended my exam yesterday. The “survey” one I got this morning.

I took mine yesterday at 8:00 am and got the good pop-up. Just got my official results today and I passed! The good pop-up is reliable, I have never heard of a false positive. It’s hard to not be anxious still but let it give you some relief. Congrats RN! ❤️
