The 12 v tested fine.

Both my husband's and my fobs seem to get disconnected of something from the car. If I walk up to it and push the button it works and then works normally from the expected range for some amount of time.

A day or two later I can't unlock it until I walk right up and push the button. We replaced the battery in one of the dogs and the same thing. This just started happening a couple weeks ago, was fine for months after we got it (used earlier this year)

Makes getting used clothes such a fucking minefield I hate it.

Now I'm going to have to wash these fucking clothes for my kids Halloween costume 6 times and treat with vinegar, alcohol and god knows what else to remove this unholy reek or fake flowers that someone incomprehensibly think smells good.

Should be legally required for used sellers of apparel to disclose smoking and scent use in their homes. Motherfucker

Thanks for coming to my Ted talk

The worst part of puberty for me was never knowing when I would get my goddamn period and now I'm back to that. I had a normal period a couple weeks ago (although it was a couple weeks late) spotting earlier this week which stopped and then I randomly just started a heavy flow.

I knew I was pregnant when my period was 3 days late. I find myself wishing that I had some sort of complication during the delivery that necessitated a hysterectomy because I am over this nonsense and done with my uterus.

His normal speaking voice is yelling. He is almost non-stop making noises, singing, talking as loud as possible unless he's asleep.

I have said "inside voice please" approximately 4 million times in the last 48 hours. Do they ever get it? Does the inside voice not develop until puberty? Help. My head hurts. My husband's head hurts. He can hear if we talk quietly, we have tried. He just is too good at projecting his voice or something.

We did oh crap just over a year ago. A FUCKING YEAR. He's currently 3.5

It went pretty well at first. Then he went back to daycare and it was a disaster for months. Finally we stopped having daily accidents, but he would usually have an accident if he hadn't pooped at home before we left. He's doing great with pee at this point but he has had up to 7 poop accidents a day. We think he's holding it until he just can't anymore and then it just leaks out if he farts or something.

This went on for a while, went to the doctor, constipated, did miralax protocol, went to lower daily miralax and it was still would have a poop accident at school but would use little potties to poop at home mos

Y'all, I've done this a lot, and I've usually had good luck with washing/soaking with defunkify, vinegar soaks, washing a few times and hanging outside.

I have one item right now that I got used, and supposedly "new without tags" but OMG I have washed it 3 times. It has soaked in vinegar. It has soaked in OxyClean. It has soaked in Defunkify. It has been sprayed with unscented febreeze. It has hung outside for 4 or 5 days. It still absolutely reeks like someone soaked the whole damn thing in perfume.

I absolutely can't wear it, I can barely stand to be in the same room with it.

Before I just give up, any other ideas? The vinegar seemed to have helped the most, so I guess I cou

We have been trying to show our 3 year old what we are doing while helping him get dressed (he's good at getting below the waist stuff off, but while he can pull up pants he can't get them on by himself or put on socks) and he can't get shirts on or off by himself unless we hand it to him so he can pull it over his head.

He also decided to even try to brush his teeth.

I remember learning to tie my shoes but not how I learned to get dressed or brush my teeth so I have no idea what I'm doing.

Help please 😂

This is a way off for me because our kid isn't 3 yet but I started thinking about how school doesn't run year round and how people handle that.

The summer programs around here I think cut off around 5th grade, which is still ... Not quite old enough to leave to their own devices, and while my husband and I do currently work from home, from experience, having him be cared for in the house while we are working doesn't work great. He knows we are here and is much less likely to just let the babysitter take care of him.

Arrangement with sahm who has a kid their age? Summer camps? What do you do?

We did it! Sort of. We are having trouble getting underwear and pants pulled up on our own, but the biggest issue seems to be running to the potty when he has a fart. We think he's a little backed up, and have been trying pear juice, but we spent the last 3 hours running to the potty every 3-7 minutes and I don't know what to tell people at daycare. We haven't had any pee accidents in a week, but he seems to want to get off the potty before he's done pooping which has caused some poop dropping when he stands up issues.

Any suggestions to help him figure out the difference between a trustable fart and an untrustworthy fart?
