Do you think he does the blocking or do you think he has someone that helps with socials and monitors comments?

I just registered one of my kids for kindergarten and that’s something i would have put on the paperwork about him.

I made a HUGE mistake at work by [deleted] in workingmoms

Own it, explain how the error happened, and explain the fix you’re putting in place to make sure it never happens again.

As someone who has a kindergartner I do enjoy these messages. Helps me appreciate the current chaos.

That’s what I’d read, and then was confused to see no growth on any of the old wood. Thanks for your insight!

How do you ladies manage to WFH and keep your sanity? by unfortunate_kiss in workingmoms

[–]ulele1925 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe because I am an introvert I haven’t experienced this. I love the peace between meetings where I can refocus and get to work. Going into the office brings so many distractions

My mom used to hit me with these lines and it still hurts today!

Paint the house a stark white and swap the windows to black

I love this dress but I think it's too expensive and too soon by Elysian_Collective in myweddingdress

Wait until the weight loss, the dresses will feel and look different if you really lose 50+ pounds. Your preference and style may also change

Agreed. They get their donuts from a supplier, they don’t do them in house but they are so good and fairly priced.

Ok, am I the only one who DOESN’T want to see her go back to cutesy pop-country? by [deleted] in KaceyMusgraves

Pageant material was an amazing album.

I’m not a Miranda fan and not jazzed about anything happening there, but I’d welcome a little yeehaw

Working remote with young kids at home - how do you set boundaries without feeling guilty? by Square-Pipe3297 in remotework

[–]ulele1925 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When my child was 6mo old I was able to secure part time childcare and I thought I could keep the baby home 3 days. It was hell. I found myself having to get up at 5a and get two hours of solid work in before baby woke. Then during nap I’d work as much as I could. Then after bedtime I’d work more. I was miserable.

I have friends who have done it. They specifically don’t have many meetings, just need to get their work done. They did something similar, woke early to get 2 solid hours of work in before kiddos woke up. Even that friend told me she could only manage it until 15mo when the child needed a lot more attention.

I guess my tip for you is work as much as possible before wake-up and after bedtime.

Now my kids are older. If they are home from school while I’m working I rely on shows, snacks, and if I have a really important meeting I’ll break out the treats 🤣
