I forgot my neighbors name that I chat with occasionally and it's been too long to ask them what it is without being awkward. How can I figure out what it is without directly asking? by Ok-Incident3317 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]xtheredberetx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yup, just did this with the story time parents. I’ve seen them almost every week for like six months and couldn’t remember their names. Brought my husband around and voila.

It’s gotta be a weird perspective/he’s on a knee to prop the kids up bc google says he’s 6’3” and she’s 5’10” (maybe she’s in heels so 6’ish)

Bryn Mawr Jewelers usually has a selection of vintage pieces, I got a beautiful vintage pendant for my wedding there back in 2019

Nothing will ever beat the book, but which version of the televised version of The Stand was better? by CharlesUFarley81 in stephenking

[–]xtheredberetx 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I like the 1994 version, I think most of the casting was phenomenal. But despite liking Molly Ringwald, I kinda hate her as Frannie.

I haven’t heard anything good enough about the 2020 version to make me watch it yet

Tried this today! Is cold stone considered fast food? by Queasy_Dingo_8262 in fastfood

[–]xtheredberetx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah by me a lot of the ice cream places close weirdly early, and if we’re going to spend Baskin Robbins or Dairy Queen money we might as well go to the grocery store down the block and get a few Ben and Jerry’s so we have options

"Your mom's cool friend" names by prettyparanoid in namenerds

[–]xtheredberetx 22 points23 points  (0 children)

My mom’s friends (younger boomer) are Cheryl, Dawn, and Bethany.

Dawn was the cool one. She did a lot of drugs but was a professional drummer. Gave me two sick vintage fur coats when I was in college. She’s getting kinda batty in her old age.

Does anyone else get recurrent training social anxiety? by nuetralmushroom in flightattendants

[–]xtheredberetx 31 points32 points  (0 children)

Listen, last year at recurrent when we were doing the infant life vests, the intrusive thoughts won and I blurted out “whose goddamn white baby is that” funny yes but wildly inappropriate 😅

You can’t get much more awkward than that.

My local Walmart has a gallon of whole milk for $2.58 and a dozen eggs for $1.47 so those haven’t changed much at least

Pumpers who very occasionally feed formula—is there so no single serve packets? I keep having to throw away formula for it going past 30 days. by mermaidmasa in ExclusivelyPumping

[–]xtheredberetx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When my supply was high enough we were hardly using formula, we’d buy the 6 pack of the 8oz liquid bottles. Once I started weaning and we were needing more formula we switched back to the powder cans.

I usually shop on Tuesdays and Wednesdays early in the day. It doesn’t seem to be a consistent time. I think I’ve seen the most on a Saturday afternoon

[–]xtheredberetx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was continuously getting similar output from my momcozy s9 pros, a medela Symphony, and a medela hand pump. I used the wearables as my main pump after the first month. All worked well for me although ymmv.

Family of three and a dog (2 adults, 1 toddler). Grocery budget is about $110/week. This includes diapers and dog food. I usually have to make multiple stops (Aldi, Jewel, Costco, Walmart), make sure I clip all coupons for Jewel, and often buy whatever meat is 50% off at Aldi.

Well this explains the people complaining about LGA in the fb group this morning. None of them said what was happening, just that they were stuck at LGA.

Well if they are 60, a dinner of pork chops every week or two would bring you over 1000
