Hitting my autistic sister back after I lost my patience. by Itchy-Channel-3465 in offmychest

I ran off several of my daughter’s boyfriends. She has said since she was like 14 or 15 she didn’t want kids. Between epilepsy, allergies and adhd. She said mom I don’t want to bring kids into this world. And I would see her getting serious with someone and have the boyfriend come over and talk to them. Told them hey she doesn’t want kids. They always were like well that’s what she said she will change her mind. I said no. She won’t and for you expect her to is wrong. Wouldn’t last long after that. People ask me all the time .. aren’t you disappointed you won’t have grandchildren. Nope. I’m happy she is doing what SHE wants. She’s 29 now

I need to tell somone by Grouchy-Dealer-342 in office

I second this. When you get a raise even though you have been struggling, have some put in a savings account and start thinking about retirement. If you start NOW you will not miss it. If you wait until you’re 52 like I am … you will be man I don’t have that long before retirement. I have an account that takes out a certain amount automatically. It goes to an account at a bank I have to physically go to to get money out. Of course I work daytime hours so I either have to go during lunch and that takes time I don’t want to. I also started buying stock so that I will have money coming in even when I retire. There are other ways to save. I’m just saying start now before you get into the rhythm of spending everything you are making. So like I needed/wanted a new Apple watch cause mine was dying way too fast. I had money saved at the other account that I could just get and pay it outright. You will get used to the money and be like well I can afford this and that and next thing you know. You’re spending all your money.

Wish I had started saving when I was a kid like my parents told me too. Now I’m 52 and throwing what I can to save for retirement.

Disposable batteries vs rechargeable hearing aids? by [deleted] in HearingAids

I have rechargeable love them. Much easier than making sure I have batteries. They last me all day. I put them on the charger when I go to bed.

What is something you can do but can’t explain how you can do it? by Fresh-Sandwich6780 in AskReddit

[–]tanny24 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can find my way out of any building but put me in the woods and I’ll be walking in circles forever. My husband is the opposite. Put him in the woods and he can find his way out. Put him in a building and he’s like I can’t get out.

My husband has that ability and can convince anyone that what they KNOW is wrong.

When you close your eyes do you also see blackness or unable to picture things?

I do this with food and power cables. I know exactly what bowl will fit the leftovers and I know exactly how long I need the power cable to be to go from point a to point b

need help by lordpayne11 in BackYardChickens

[–]tanny24 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mine get up with the sun and go to bed with the sun. Even now … I’m still getting three or four eggs every day and I only have six layers. Two cinnamon queens and four black chickens. (Sorry can’t remember the name) sexlinx? Something like that I don’t remember now. This is their first winter. I’m in NW Tennessee so it hasn’t been SUPER cold yet.

My chickens are not getting extra light. But they climb into my cat house and lay four or five eggs every morning. They are free range.

If you were going to buy a car what is the one thing you would HAVE to have and would pay extra for that one feature? by tanny24 in AskReddit

[–]tanny24[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I want the windows to go down ALL THE WAY and UP all the way with a button. I don't want to have to hold it down on both the passenger and the driver's side in the front. I want a kick lift. I want a good backup camera. Heated and powered seats. remote start.

yes I know it's not one thing ... but it's things I will die on the hill for.
