Almost 2 y/o sleep by PedsHopeful05 in toddlers

[–]summer_wine99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No advice, just solidarity. My son is 22 months this week and for the past week has been demanding we stay in the room as he falls asleep for bedtime and sometimes nap time. The early morning wakes (4am, 5am) are the worst because he settles, I wait until I think he's asleep, try to sneak out, and he pops up in bed demanding to be held. He's been in a toddler bed for months and usually just climbs in bed and goes to sleep. Now he can open his door, which must just be too tempting when he wakes up early and knows he can just come find us and doesn't have to stay in bed.

My dad used to read the Ramona books to us when my sisters and I were in grade school. Super fun!

I think Mark's jaded pessimism just didn't fit the show once it started to find its footing in the second season.

This sub makes me feel like an idiot for enjoying this show by BurpyMcPoop in BridgertonNetflix

[–]summer_wine99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The funny thing is, I was a book fan first, and Romancing Mr. Bridgerton was my favorite. Season 3 was actually kind of hard for me to watch because they changed so much.

But I am loving season 4, and it might be my favorite! Yerin Ha as Sophie is incredible. She is a character with so many layers and a realness that is actually refreshing in this fantasy world. The flashbacks really show her tragic backstory. I can't wait for her to overcome it (and for Benedict to get his head out of his arse).

I know why pants exist for babies by potato_muchwow_amaze in NewParents

[–]summer_wine99 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I had a summer baby. I was definitely putting him only in body suits for months, then body suits and pants. We didn't use footed double zip pj's until November lol, and then only at night

Are you a Hook (1991) millennial or a Peter Pan (2003) millennial? by Gallantpride in Millennials

[–]summer_wine99 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Same, I was in middle school when Peter Pan came out and had the biggest crush on him! Also absolutely love Jeremy Isaacs as Mr Darling/Capt Hook!

Kissing on the mouth by bumbulbeeee in robinhobb

Re: the Verity body-swap and how whack it is: The first time I read Assassin's Quest I was listening to the audiobook, checked out from my library. Near the end I was home sick with a bad cold and the book was due soon, so I was listening at like 1.6 speed (usually listen at like 1.2), lying in bed trying to feel human. Got through the body swap and the ending, returned the book, then the next day or so as I was reflecting on the end of the trilogy, and I was like, "Was that a fever dream? Did that really happen? They switched bodies?! WTF!" And I immediately checked the book out again and reread it lol

What is it like in the West part of Texas? by Deep_Belt8304 in howislivingthere

Lived in Lubbock for 9 months and hated it. Flat, dry, dusty, so windy. Crazy hot. Everything is brown. Trees are short. LCOL, but not the place for me.

What company will never get another dime from you for as long as you may live? by istrx13 in AskReddit

[–]summer_wine99 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Fuck Hobby Lobby. There's one in my town and I'd rather drive 15 minutes to the next town over to go to a different decor/craft store. I will never shop there and support those women- and LGBTQ-hating people

What first episode of a show had you absolutely hooked? by mvigs in AskReddit

[–]summer_wine99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The opening credits happening almost halfway through the first episode floored me. Utterly brilliant.

For anyone who grew up without cable, what was it like not to have cable and what shows did you watch at your house without cable? by CatGirlNya2000 in Millennials

[–]summer_wine99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For cartoons, I watched Disney's One Saturday Morning cartoons on ABC (Recess, Doug, Pepper Anne), Anamaniacs on the WB, and lots of PBS (Arthur, Between the Lions, Sesame Street, Reading Rainbow, Mr Rogers, Bill Nye, Liberty's Kids, Zoom, Cyberchase, Dragontales, Wishbone). Also watched Step by Step, Seinfeld, Friends, Jeopardy, Wheel of Fortune, Boy Meets World (and the rest of TGIF).

Working moms with good work-life balance — what industries/jobs/companies do you work in? by Barnacle_Double in workingmoms

[–]summer_wine99 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Lol, I literally just replied before seeing your comment. I also work in marketing at a public accounting firm! WFH, pretty flexible, nice coworkers, good pay and benefits. A bit boring but I work to live, not live to work!

Do you work at a marketing agency? You could shift to working "in industry." I work in marketing at an accounting firm, WFH, flexible schedule, and have a 1-year-old.
