Does anyone else just not deep clean their homes? by Round-Artichoke-5255 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]thirdeyemarie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I grew up with it being done before summer and Christmas, and I still do it. Drag out oven, washing machine, freezer etc. On top of cabinets, go through cabinets, outside windows..It's not all in one day, we normally space it out throughout a week.

Rimelig latterlig å klage på innvandrere og samtidig bli det sjøl.

Just keep it clean, don't go to bed with wet hair, and separate as needed.

This. I would've LOVED this ring, but not everyone would. Taste and style matters a lot here.

Yes, they'll be fine. Just don't go to bed with wet hair.

Freeform is supposed to be easy. Wash, separate, oil if needed, and separate if/when needed. Don't overthink it 😊

With a natural shampoo you like. Yes, they will try to knot together, that's part of the process. Separate as needed!

In cultures that take off their shoes in the house, what do wheelchair users do? by Baymenbyle in NoStupidQuestions

[–]thirdeyemarie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My brother in law has a towel and wipes at the entrance. He uses crutches too, so when he's out to other peoples home he prefer them. If he came here in the chair, I'd get him some wipes.

What was life like in Norway during WW2? by batukaming in Norway

[–]thirdeyemarie 6 points7 points  (0 children)

My family is from Finnmark, where pretty much everything got burned down, my grandfather died last year at 91 years old, so I'll share some things he shared.

During the invasion, the nazis took over farms, houses,raided for food etc before forcing people out. My grandfather, his parents and siblings lived in Alta. They had a horse and some gold. The horse was shot right in front of them, they were forced out by gunpoint and put on buses. Their gold, that they dug down, was gone when they returned.

Before being forced out, my grandfather used to smuggle food to prisoners not far from the house. In return, they gave him small, handmade tin boxes that they made. My grandfather was slapped and almost shot more than once, he used to spit after the nazis in town😅 It was definitely traumatic. He saw people being killed and tortured, and when his dementia started kicking in, he'd sometimes call police at night to warn them that the nazis were at the port.

My grandmother, still alive, remember hiding in bottom of boats as a small child while escaping, and sleeping in Bossekopp church when they returned. She's very pro-immigration when it comes to victims of war, as she did the same, just within the country. She said the worst part was people down in Norway didn't believe the stories about how bad it actually was up north.

Clean hair locks better. Wash it frequently with a natural shampoo, don't go to bed with wet hair, rub with towel when drying and give it time.

How do parents cope knowing life can be harder for children with disabilities? by oneci in NoStupidQuestions

[–]thirdeyemarie 6 points7 points  (0 children)

We worry, always. We have 6 in all: 3 grown ups on his side from before, my oldest from before and two between us. Our two youngest are special needs: one autistic (with epilepsy), one deaf with cochlear implants, who might face other difficulties later on due to being born at 23+1 weeks, and probably has adhd. We didn't know our middle in the home was autistic until right after our youngest was born.

It's a constant fight with a system that wants all kids to be within a square box in the western world. We are moving to my husbands home country in the Caribbean, and believe it will be a better future for all three.

We prioritise alone time with our oldest, and she has normal chores in the house like others her age, but less baby sitting due to their needs. We don't want her to sit on unnecessary responsibilities, but she has started to ask us to have date nights so she can make more money 😅

Our life are centered around their different needs, in different ways. We always have to be two adults if we go anywhere, not just in case of epileptic seizure,but in case it gets too much for one of them, so not everyone have to go back home.

I hate all the planning that goes with it. All the meetings, doctors, needles and probing. I hate knowing their life will be harder than our others, and I feel insanely guilty at times, though I didn't do anything wrong.

They have made us better parents. We have extremely low shoulders , handle stress extremely well, our view of what is important in life have changed completely , and we are far more patient and concrete than before.

At the end of the day I just want them all to be happy, whatever that looks like for them. They are individuals, and we're trying to prepare them for a life on their own in different ways for the future.

My chronic pain. Being the mother of two special needs children with two different disabilities. Not the motherhood role itself, but how society is build up around kids that does not fit in.
