I kind of respect the self-control to just stop posting instead of deactivating. Like seriously, if I just stop posting how long would it take people to notice if I just stopped posting? Weeks maybe? But deactivating seems to cause this UPROAR.
I mean really I get why people do it, because clearly I'm addicted and would most likely need to deactivate to stop posting.
I'm tipsy. I don't know what I'm saying here. DON'T COME TO ME FOR A TIDY CONCLUSION.
If you stopped posting I would write to my Congressman.
And throw a fit like you would not believe.
Let's just get it straight. Neither of you can EVAR leave! EVAR!
I have a confession -- I am EXTREMELY attracted to a close friend's husband. Who is also a good friend of my H. I have felt this way for the over 2 years we have known them. I have fantasies about swinging with them and have had some really amazing dreams about him. I think he feels it too--but obviously we've never discussed it. I would not act on it and destroy 2 families and 6 kids, but damn.
This is juicy
Mine: Most of the time, I use my K cups twice. I've used them up to four times.
I don't want my kid dropping her sandwich into the fur balls that are my house. So I vacuum at least every other day, if not daily. If people are coming over, I would rather have a fur free environment for them to enjoy.
Yeah, my kid is literally rolling on the floor all day and if I don't vacuum, it's fucking gross. Plus, a lot of days *I* am rolling all over the floor doing exercises. I don't want us to be covered in dog hair. Why is this hard to understand? lol. What's the big deal if people vacuum every day? This is reminding me of the person who was annoyed at calling preschool "school." WTF does it matter?
A's new thing is finding any spec of dirt or animal hair , picking it up, offering it to us, or trying to eat it. Babies, man. So yea....lots of vacuuming lol
Taxes aren't hard per se, but tax accountant can often get you more money. I've taken several 400 level tax courses yet when my mom, a seasoned CPA, does them she saves me more money than when I do them.
I will be honest the other part of the otter drama that made me clutch my pearls was her talking about leaving her husband once the adoption was finalized.

I found it telling that she would bring it up on SO, where few know her history and would be largely supportive, instead of on ML, which seems to be her home board.
I hope she is able to work out some of her issues and continue on happily.

re: otter, I gave gifts because I wanted to. I didn't get a thank you, but I also don't believe I used my board name.
I do side-eye berbles because to me it seemed like she got satisfaction out of sharing something that was hurtful. It wasn't necessary to tell her and reporting back here only served to shit stir more.
Something that has always bothered me was Otter's story about when she and Rosie got carbon monoxide poisoning from her rental car. She said it was so bad that when her mom found her in a parking lot, both she and the baby were unresponsive. But no one ever called 911? Didn't rush to the hospital? And if there was enough CO to render a grown woman unconscious and unresponsive for several minutes, a newborn would be...not ok. I'm not doubting that Otter is a nice person, but this whole thing just didnt sit right.
Plus, didn't she say that she was/her mom said she was/the baby was gray when they were found? CO poisoning makes you turn bright red. That is one of the key signs.

I concur with this. It takes two people to hurt you: the person who said the hurtful things, and the person who tells you about the hurtful things the other person said.

I don't understand what would compel someone to vacuum more than once a week, let alone more than once a day.
PETS. hth
Seriously, and kids. It's not that hard to understand. I vacuum nearly everyday. It's not that big of a deal and takes maybe 5 minutes to do a quick vacuuming.

I really don't have an opinion about the otter situation, but I side eye the hell out of people who are saying it was shitty of her friend to tell her about this post.
I spend a few hours each day cleaning and it doesn't show. I suck at cleaning and my kid is a rock star at making messes. In the past 24 hours my eldest has:
- peed in her car seat (change her, disassemble car seat, wash cover, straps, and seat itself, use carpet washer to wash actual seat in car, dry everything, reassemble, wash me, my clothes and floor of garage which got pee spilled on during seat removal/cleaning process).
- broken down the child gate to the kitchen while I'm cleaning the carseat (fix gate, put back up)
- taken half a leftover chocolate birthday cake out of the fridge, covered herself, her hair, her table, her chair and the floor with aforementioned chocolate cake (wash child, vaccum, wash table and chairs, wash carpet)
- dumped everything out of her clothing drawers onto the floor while dressing after chocolate cake incident (supervise her while she puts it all away)
Meanwhile, the baby has thrown up on her, her sister, me, the chair and the floor repeatedly (yay for projectile spit up that flies everywhere!).
I wish I were one of those people who could just "vacuum for five minutes" and have everything look great. I really do admire that. It seems like a magical fairy trick :-)
Re: the Otter stuff I thought most of it, especially the way it started was not nearly as harsh as other things that have been said about posters on here. I don't know if I understand Berbles need to inform Otter.

Nothing that has been said here hasn't been said before, so it's not like it would have been shocking for Otter to have seen it. Even if she had, as her friend handle that when it happens. There was no need, IMO, to draw her attention to it.
That said, Otter did she seriously nasty shit back in her JKM/AS days on TN, so I'm having a hard time feeling tooooo bad for her regarding all this stuff. She knows better than pretty much anybody how it goes, this shouldn't be exactly shocking to her.
The otter conversation wasn't happening over coffee in some remote location. She would have seen it here eventually. Pretending berbles is the reason otter saw this is disingenuous.
