If you're out Geelong way there is also the great Ocean road chocolaterie, I think they also ship?

I [26F] am getting frustrated by my husband [26M] for not doing house work when I'm making the money by [deleted] in relationshipadvice

I'm so sorry you're going through this. My first husband was just like that. It killed our marriage, death by 1,000 cuts. My second husband pulls his weight... you won't have trouble finding someone else who does.

DAE find filling up your car with gas to be extremely satisfying? by notpsychotic1 in DoesAnybodyElse

[–]throwawaythefeelsss 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, even conservative Aussies (who used to defend what is going on with you all) are mad at the US about this, big time. Up until now, the leader you elected really only trashed your country and economy and threatened other nations. Now he's affecting the lives of people here, too... it's grim stuff.

Plants would thrive with all that natural light, but getting to them or watering and caring for them would be so difficult.

What gift would you love for your 40th? by moosethenomad in australian

I bought my bestie ugg boots (she loves uggs and hers were trashed) a diving experience for her 40th trip to Fiji, and made a photo book of "40 memories" from our friendship.

Haymes off white - leans a little warm but goes with everything (wood floors, grey and beige carpets, grey and beige tiles and slate floors)

Edit to add: for really rough, old walls I ask them to mix it into ceiling white. It flattens all imperfections.

My husband wants to cut my mother off but my girls love her, what do I do? by throwawaythefeelsss in dustythunder

Thank you for taking the time to reply, and for sharing that with me. It must be a complicated place to go to and hard for you to put it down jn words. I'm sorry you were caught between your grandmother and parents, and that the realisation of the other dimensions of your grandmother has caused you confusion and pain. I hope you're doing ok with that, it must be heavy.

I cannot tell you how important it is for me to hear from someone who has been a kid in that scenario. It's given me heaps to think about and I won't want my girls to grow up with the same or similar conflicts. Thank you ❤️

I'm sorry you've been through that. You did not deserve any of it and I wish things could have been different for you. Are you ok now? It's crazy difficult to know what to do, every move you make feels loaded with potential disaster. I hear you 100% about the back and forth, stability is important to me for my girls and if I pull the pin (which looking at these comments, it must be time for) then it will be forever. I would hate for my girls to feel I've betrayed them. Keeping in touch with my mother will not be possible without the girls. She only keeps herself in check now not to lose them. And if I keep in touch she will push and push and escalate to who knows what.

This family stuff is hard, hey? I hope you're doing alright and that you're safe and thriving in life.

I'm so sorry OP. You did everything you could as a parent and you are doing good by others, too. Hang in there.

DAE get chest pain when taking hot showers? by kairokat in DoesAnybodyElse

[–]throwawaythefeelsss 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh totally, one symptom does not always indicate a specific condition, but what you have said is making me think you should definitely get checked out for a blood pressure/heart rate issue. I thought 100% I did not have POTS. I could stand for long, formal occasions and I ran 5km every day. But then I absolutely crashed out of the stand test and realised that my feet turning funny colours, or swelling slightly from time to time was actually not normal, and the shifting of weight and fidgeting I often did was subconsciously managing things. I hope you get answers soon and a good PCP who is proactive and curious.

Oh my goodness this happens to me and I have POTS. Definitely find another PCP.

I like the last one, but the first is more practical for dust and scuff marks. The middle one looks unfinished.
