We always used to eat by 5-5:30. I get off work at 5:30 now, so I try to have dinner ready by 6. I usually prep stuff earlier in the day or have Cambria start dinner before I get home.

K has decided recently that she's a pescatarian. She still occasionally eats meat but she chooses non-meat alternatives and seafood when she has the chance. I don't see anything wrong with letting them make that choice, I just try to ensure that she has a rounded diet, enough protein, etc.

It was huge when I was in middle school, I remember Guess stuff was super popular. And the whole knee highs and baby doll dresses. C is in 6th grade and it doesn't seem to be a huge deal, at least not with the crowd she hangs out with. I don't know if it's just that she's not in traditional school or what, but most of her friends go to public school and it seems to be kind of a non-issue around here.

C was getting bad headaches when she was around 5. Her ped said headaches in young children is never a "normal" thing. She ended up having over-developed sinuses that were getting frequent sinus infections. I would at least go get things checked out ASAP.

11 years ago I had emergency surgery for a cyst that was twisted into my fallopian tube as well. They were able to save the tube and everything but the cyst was the size of a softball. They had to do the full abdominal surgery, weren't able to do it by laparoscopy so the recovery was a bit longer and I had to be in the hospital for a few days. Recovery wasn't awful, i was up and around after a few days but full recovery was about 8-12 weeks. The hardest part was having a one year old at home, I couldn't lift her up at all.
ADHD drugs can absolutely show up. They are abused quite frequently by the general population. Speed is basically amphetamine... which is what is in a lot of ADHD meds. It just affects a non ADHD person a lot differently.
As far as them asking for a pic of your prescription, that's def weird. I'm not sure what harm would come from an overseas testing facility knowing your prescription info. I wouldn't be too worried about it just yet.
Well yeah, I understand it could show up but they have to specifically test for it and not every place tests for everything. But, I could definitely be wrong and she could come up positive.
Every place tests for amphetamines, which is what adhd meds show up as. That's why she tried to supply them with her info right away.
OP I'm sorry! I had a test that was processed while I was still there. I had my meds with me and when they showed up in the test it was nbd because they already had my prescription info. This all seems squicky.
California law requires Landlords to give a minimum 60 day notice if you've lived in the house for more than one year (which you said you had). YOU can turn around and give them a 30 day notice if you find somewhere else to move sooner than the 60 days. There are a few rare loop holes to this rule but you should be fine.
Yeah we have been here for 4 years. I figured we would have at least 30 days, 60 is cool. I kind of just want to get out rather than deal with prospective buyers, Realtors, etc. It's just such a pain. When we first rented it the landlord was happy to have long term renters and said he wasn't planning on selling it at all. Oh well.
I should know more about this, since I'm a landlord, but don't they have to give you proper notice? And them being dicks to you seems like a terrible idea, since you'll be deciding what the house looks like during showings.
Yeah I don't know all of the rules. I know they have to give us at least 30 days notice to leave but I don't know if they have to let us know they are listing the house.
I know, the realtor asked if he could come take pics of the inside and I seriously contemplated messing everything up, lol. They are also asking WAY WAY too much for the house so I think it will take awhile to sell. At this point I just want to find something else asap. There are literally NO rentals in the area right now. Sucky side of small town living.
I'm so sorry - what a huge pain. When is your lease up?
I miss being a renter in California - we had so many more protections against insane rent increases, landlords selling out from under us etc. In Mass everyone seems to assume all renters are students who can be treated like utter crap.
I'm in California! I dont think we are on a lease anymore, I think it was a one year and we've been here for 4.
Well, she's a tenant. The landlord sold the house. Unless the purchaser agreed to buy without looking in OP's apartment (or the whole structure, if she's renting a house) then presumably they entered without her permission. I'd be pretty pissed about that, if that happened to me.
No, it hasn't been sold yet. The realtor asked if we were interested in buying, presumably because they are getting ready to list it and wanted to give us a crack at it before putting it on the market.
That sucks. Our old landlady asked if we wanted to buy the house we were renting too. We declined, bought our new house, and now she's renting to someone else. I guess she didn't really want to go through the hassle of listing her house. Maybe yours isn't that serious? ALthough you would think so if she already talked to her realtor.
What sucked at the last house is that we were in a great financial position and interested in buying that house but the owner wasn't interested in selling. Then we got a 30 day notice to move out on the front door he sold the house to a friend of his instead. Lame!

A realtor just came to our house. We rent. I guess he sold the house to our landlord originally and he said our landlord is looking to sell and wanted to know if we were interested in buying. We aren't in a position to buy and damnnnnnit I don't want to move! Gahhh. This is the sucky part of renting. It happened at our old house, too.

I have always just listed whatever I am currently taking. I recently had a drug test just after surgery, so I had been taking Tylenol 3. I brought in my prescription in case it was an issue. I've listed ADHD meds at drug tests and never had an issue.

The older two go to different homeschool charter schools. They are home most of the time but attend weekly workshops at school. K is in 4th grade and attends workshops all day on weds. Plus special things like parties, field trips, science fairs etc. C is in 6th grade and her school partners with the local public school's gifted and talented program for workshops each week. Each month they have a different focus area for workshops, right now they are doing art history which will culminate in an art show. They've done local history, science workshops, and they did a play w the Missoula Children's theater. Bonnie is in preschool twice a week but does preschool at home, too. Next year she will go 3 days per week.
