  1. Here’s a little follow up on Anthony in case anyone is interested. This occurred not too far from where I live. Mom seemed to have her own issues, stepmom seemed to like the comfortable lifestyle, and out child welfare system is in disarray so nothing about the case surprises me. The DA came into office with guns blazing. Once he started locking parents up for their truant kids I knew things were going to get interesting very quickly.
  2. Quoting myself here to say thanks @Notabug for clearing that up. I thought I remembered hearing that when watching something on TLC (back before it went to hell). Again, glad the little fella and mom seem okay.
  3. Oh, your ass is going to follow the rules or you will lose privileges and/or receive additional write ups. The prison I worked at was one the cleanest places I’d ever been. The grounds were immaculate and the dorms were spotless at all times. Failure to comply was not in the inmate’s best interest. With the exception of maximum security institutions and dormitories, the prisoners generally can move about freely during the day in many instances with the exception of inmate count times. No one in their right mind wants to jeopardize that “freedom” and be stuck in a cell instead of a dorm, or locked down while everyone else is on the rec yard or in the common area.
  4. Silly rabbit. Pro-life doesn’t mean you. When they say pro-life they mean pro-my-life. It’s easy to understand why you would erroneously assume they, as “Christians”, meant everyone though. /s
  5. Ha! He’s cute in the “he’s not a cute baby, but he’s clean, plump, happy, and smells sweet like fresh-baked oatmeal cookies the way only babies can” sort of way. That way that makes you smile when they smile at you no matter what they look like.
  6. Isn’t there something about C-section babies not always clearing the fluid from their lungs that would normally get expressed during a vaginal birth? Not a parent but I’m sure I’ve heard something to that effect. Maybe that’s what going on with Sir Frederick (Sir Frederick Dillard, First of His Kind popped into my head for some reason 🤣). Glad everyone seems to be doing well.
  7. I couldn’t wear nail polish or lotion during any surgery with the most recent one in May. The pre-op nurse also told me no lotions as some of them can become flammable during surgery. I remember when my grandfather was in the hospital and the nurses would come in and use some kind of cream to keep his skin hydrated. Whatever was in that little jar was deemed safe, and he was at a much lower risk for surgery since he wasn’t in ICU. Wanting to comb your mom’s hair and trim her nails is one thing. Jill is just doing this for attention as always.
  8. I loved that show. I especially liked the episode where Donna drove the truck instead of Gary. She didn’t spill a drop. On topic: I can understand to keep the mold house. My sisters and I signed the rental property we inherited from our grandfather back to our grandmother because my dad dad after his dad but before his mom. In hindsight, I wish we had just one of the houses. While the income from a dozen rental properties would be sweet right now, it’s the sentimental value because my grandfather built it with his own hands. I can’t knock them for wanting to hold on to family history.
  9. Don’t know if the BOP website has been updated yet, but that certainly doesn’t mean he isn’t in their custody. When I worked in inmate records for a state prison, I handled the the new inmates or new commits. It takes a little time to get them fully into the system with a number, bed assignment, updated wrap sheet and release date. Time computation can be tedious and is dependent upon receiving accurate and updated court minutes. It can take a week or so to get all of that squared away.
  10. Grandma Guinn probably does always have a brush in her purse since she knows Ivy’s hair is always a gnarled mess. I doubt Jessa carries a purse let alone a brush.
  11. So I watched the birthday video because I’m killing time at work. Jessa’s parenting skills leave much to be desired, but I can’t snark on the backpack full of goodies. All little kids like to emulate adults so I get why Guinn would give Ivy a brush, chapstick and tissues for her backpack. My nieces played with the fake credit cards that came in wallets when they were young. That’s probably the same stuff grandma has in her purse. Ivy’s carrier with the tiger stuffed animal was adorable too.
  12. The thought of those two bumping uglies is enough to make my cooter seal itself up. I could see how that would emphasize “purity” amongst their teenage sons.
  13. @Nysha I’m so sorry you’re having all these difficulties but glad you got the FMLA. Stay on top of the interactive process with your employer when you return to work. Document document document!!! Can’t say that enough. A reasonable accommodation for you may be to remove some non-essential functions from your job (notice I said non-essential), for example, but you have to communicate back and forth to meet your needs. Needs change over time and sometimes one thing doesn’t work so you love on tom something else. Also check out www.askjan.org accommodation library on ADD. There’s some really good information guides on executive functioning that might be really helpful. I was recently diagnosed with combined adult adhd, and it helped tremendously (as did the Adderall🤣). Best wishes to you. @iwantcookies I knocked a nail off too years ago. Hurt like a mother! Just be prepared that even when the nail starts to grow back, it can easily be knocked off again. Proceed with open toe footwear with caution for a while, and be careful about bumping it.
