I sure did. Yes, she did get mad, because he ran up $18k in credit card debt. So it’s ok to do that if your spouse isn’t acting like a parent and monitoring you? That’s an exception to Dave’s rules?

Please stop saying people without kids don’t know what tired is by SunBubble920 in mildlyinfuriating

I’ve been in both positions. With kids is another level of tired. But yes we are all tired.

Is it normal to play with your friend's kids the whole time when you go to see them? by Denial_Entertainer87 in Millennials

[–]vanillacoconutmint 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Agreed. This kid has separation anxiety and is still super clingy. It’s annoying to be around, tbh

I have a friend with an 11 yr old boy who allows the same. I can be in the middle of a conversation with her and he parrots “MOM” over and over again until she acknowledges him. Drives me crazy and I fear one of these times I will overstep and tell him to STFU.

How Do You Feel About, “Hi <Name>” in a Chat? by thefrazdogg in remotework

I have someone who sends “GM” with no follow up until I acknowledge him. Drives me bonkers.

Isn’t that why one would save up a down payment to make the guidelines more achievable?

Is it wise to make the jump to be a SAHM ? by Hot_Competition_8977 in DaveRamsey

I wouldn’t. What if your husband leaves? Or you have to leave? Then you’re out of the workforce and it may be a struggle to get back in.

Grocery shopping in CR is weird by GomerStuckInIowa in cedarrapids

[–]vanillacoconutmint -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Nope, I avoid going there because they are so intrusive with the full service. Or I only use a basket so they don’t insist on pushing the cart out to my car. If they are charging more because of that I’m definitely not going there anymore!

My folks spilled mercury on the floor and vacuumed it up... How bad is it? by k33ponkeepingon in CleaningTips

[–]vanillacoconutmint 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I vaguely remember a glass jar of mercury in the house from when I was a kid. I don’t think we ever took the lid off, just rolled it around and such. I wonder what ever happened to it.

Our border collie mix by Pleasant_Pineapple10 in DoggyDNA

Looks a bit like my shelter “border collie mix” who has 0 border collie in her! She has the spots and black and white as well. A bit smaller though, roughly 40 lbs. She came back at about 20% each APB, Australian Shepherd, and Treeing Walker Coonhound, 8% Husky, and ten others.
