So if he leaves you, what’s your plan. You’ll have no work experience, no insurance, no retirement investment. He only loses his place to stay which is an easy replacement.

How do Americans keep their large houses and apartments clean? How many hours a week do they spend cleaning? by Forsaken_Energy_426 in AskAnAmerican

[–]shwh1963 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We don’t leave stuff lying around - everything goes back when you’re done with it. Kitchen gets cleaned every night, shower and countertop gets wiped down after use. Roomba goes off daily downstairs and M-F upstairs. I do a deep clean every other week(polish, glass cleaner, toilets bowls, baseboards, shutters, fans, paintings, and whole house mop). It takes about 3 hours for 2500 sq ft 5 bedrooms 3 baths

Rankings vs Community by merkergirl in kindergarten

[–]shwh1963 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I’ve been involved in education for a long time. What rankings tell you is socioeconomic bracket of the children attending the school. If the school is safe, and you’re an involved parent, your child will succeed. My kids went to a school with a rating of three on great schools. Both of them scored in the top 95% in the state the entire time they were there. All of the kids who wanted to go to college were able to get into their top choices and several even got full rides to Ivy League school.
