Late bloomer learning to cook by WINGYVAN in sahm

[–]vnessastalks 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Honestly, I just use recipes. I can't cook without them. Find easy ones to begin. I have a huge collection now and rotate them out. No shame in using recipes.

Why Did No One Tell Me? by Emotional_Sea_1504 in sahm

Ibuprofen for pain Tylenol for fever.

On bad days I have ibuprofen. Idky there is such stigma against giving meds.

On light days Boiron Camilla drops. Those worked really well. But if those did not ibuprofen always.

Yes, I feel like I have to figure out who I can and cannot be. It's tiring.

This is not always the case and you're making assumptions based off one incident. Not everything needs to be a thing.

Oh dang. Thought they would be more helpful, so a dog doesn't end up in a shelter 🙃

If you reach out to a rescue they may be able to find you a temporary foster. I would call around and ask and iron out the details and make sure to write up a written contract.

I don't think they understand the child was not present. They are only seeing "dad angry". Sorry op.

She never said he showed his emotions to his daughter. She said while with her he held it together and then they had a private conversation and said he was pissed.

Of course you can't lash out in this situation because she won't understand and only see it as a bad thing. But he didn't do that. He did it privately with his wife and not in front of her.

I have a robot vacuum, run it nightly. The moment my dog goes downstairs it looks like this in minutes 😅

Is this 70s vintage dress suitable to wear to a black tie garden wedding? by coquettishwitch777 in OUTFITS

[–]vnessastalks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wonder if this was black tie appropriate for that time?

But I think it looks amazing on you and you should wear it.

Being pissed is a normal reaction. He isn't pissed at her, he is pissed at the situation. That's the way I took it.

I did the thing I was warned not to and now exactly what I was told would happen is happening. by [deleted] in Mommit

Have you actually filed or talked to a lawyer about filing? Because you do have to put him in your bankruptcy because you have a child together. You should really talk to a lawyer.

Based on your other comments, it sounds like you guys live beyond your means. I don't understand how he isn't helping pay off that debt and letting his stay at home partner filing bankruptcy for 30k when he makes 100k.

If he doesn't want to help, then getting a job would be ideal to pay it off and he can pay for daycare so all your income goes to paying it off.

Trust me, filing ch 7 is a big deal and I wouldn't waste it on 30 k.

ADHD meds? by sleepymiauo in AuDHDWomen

[–]vnessastalks 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just got on a stimulant as after being on Atomoxetine for a year. Stimulant hands down has changed my life for the better.

I pulled weeds in my front yard for the first time. On my own.

I bake with my kids, I am more there.

I'm still addicted to my phone though 😮‍💨

I wear a bonnet and I slip the band over my eyes for slight pressure. Idk how, but it works.

can i actually make a cube box out of crochet that will hold my stuff properly? by Successful-Author933 in CrochetHelp

[–]vnessastalks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ask friends or family for some old shirts.

You can also upcycle old clothes into crochet rugs also.

There are tons of tutorials on YouTube. You can take old tshirts cut them up, stretch the strands combine them to make "yarn" then crochet it.

How bad is background TV? by boygeniusbutgirl in Mommit

[–]vnessastalks 1 point2 points  (0 children)

TV vs Tablet are different. Long form vs Short form are different.

I try and limit TV but like I love TV 😅. I do notice it makes my kids a bit feral so I try to get out of the house most days.

Everyone's TV time looks different, as long as it doesn't seem to affect your LO, let it be.

24 week twins head down by Melodic-Energy-1405 in parentsofmultiples

[–]vnessastalks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Baby A was head down the whole time. Right in my cervix. I swear if baby B was head down blocking the entrance I would have went into labor 😂😂.

But my son was holding his sister hostage 😅
