Pic of mustard snack

To preface this, I am not allowed to eat unhealthy fats, simple carbohydrates and any kind of refined or baked food. I use very light mustard oil for cooking in food. I also don't eat rice or wheat roti. I eat millets (jowar, bajra, raggi, etc). Absolutely no butter. Negligible sugar and low sodium salt in moderation.
This diet restriction is due to a recent diagnosis of fatty liver (it's in very early stages but I have gone on extreme dietary restriction for the past 3 months nonetheless).
For the past 3 months I have been only eating a fixed diet. Oats in the morning, 1 roti and sabji, 1 cup of moong daal in lunch, a bunch of veggies, lots and lots of fruits (no banana though), soya chunks and tofu, paneer (in strict moderation), some nuts and almonds as evening snacks or maybe a moong chilla or 1 roti and sabji as dinner. I try to limit myself to 1200 calories (I am short).
I was wondering if there were any snack suggestions that wouldn't be problematic and also help me to introduce variety in my monotonous diet.
I am vegetarian at the moment but I have been thinking to start eating fish.

Hello all. So last Thursday night, my family’s almost 12 year old Shih Tzu named Bobby passed away and I haven’t really had the chance to talk about it.
First off, he lived with my parents but since they visit so often, they bring him along so he has been a constant presence in my life. He started acting off about February so my parents took him to the vet. Lo and behold, he has heartworms. I’m freaking out but we get some reassurance from the vet. He is started on the fast kill method for heartworms and he’s almost back to his normal self that evening and is trying to leap off the patio deck! And yes my parents kept his activity minimized after he pulled off that stunt lol.
He goes back for his follow up in late March and April. He’s had some on and off days but the vet says he’s doing well otherwise.
Well, last Thursday, my sister tells me that sweet Bobby had a seizure and my parents take him to the clinic. He stays at the vet for most of the day for monitoring and medicating. The clinic they were at didn’t have a vet on staff for the next few days but they did have talks about considering euthanasia in the next few days and referred them to a clinic nearby.
They let my parents take him home that evening and my parents let our other dog somewhat see him for a bit. Bobby was apparently still a little out of it and didn’t have much bladder control. But apparently his little ears still perked up when they called him by his name and munched on some treats. My parents said they gave him lots of love and cuddles and pets which I’m grateful for.
My mom said that she went to shower and that my dad went to the bathroom. When they went back to check on him, Bobby had already passed. We don’t know if he had another seizure or if he passed peacefully in his sleep.
I know that we did all that we could but I’m still so upset about this. I’ll catch myself just tearing up in the middle of the day even though I’ve cried nearly daily since. I just keep thinking of how I’ll never pet him again. Of how I’ll never see him puttering around or following my sis or dad. I just have constant thoughts of what ifs and endless amounts of guilt.
The biggest things that keeps bothering me is the heart worm. Bobby was never on any heart worm medication and I honestly cannot remember for the life of me why he wasn’t. It’s a little embarrassing, but I truthfully didn’t even remember that it was/can be an issue until he got the diagnosis. It just slipped my mind.
So now, a part of me just feels absolutely awful and guilty because I KNOW his premature death could’ve been avoided by a daily pill. Because other wise, he never had any sort of medical issues and was a very healthy boy even at the age of 12. Still running around the yard like an hoodlum and going on regularly walks. Just knowing the lifespan average of a Shih tzu, it breaks my heart even more that he passed.
I know I can’t do anything about it now besides doing better in the future if I ever have another dog. But I really do miss Bobby a lot. More than I imagined I would. It was really hard yesterday when I was tidying up. I’m used to putting up some of his toys because he’s a brat and leaves them everywhere, but I cried hard when I put up his outdoor water dish.
It’s funny too because of the five people in my family, I was definitely 4th favorite haha. He ignored me most of the time besides an initial greeting. But he would REALLY love me if I had treats or if I was the only person present lol
It has been a hard journey and I know he was loved tremendously by all of us. I hope he knew how much we loved him. We had so many good walks, play times, car rides. All the pets and cuddles and absolutely all the snacks, especially from my dad (he gives our dogs one milk bone at least with every meal even though I tell him not too lol. As well as a ridiculous amount of boiled chicken and steamed rice).
A little off topic, I also had another dog (11 years old mix) that passed away last month. My sweet lil angel passed away in her sleep unexpectedly. I’m very sad about her passing as well and miss her a lot. I feel a little guilty about not being as distraught about her passing, but I think I’m more upset about Bobby since I saw him so much more often.
I don’t really know how else to end this. But thank you all for reading this and giving me a platform (besides my journal) to express myself. I do feel better and I do miss my puppers <3 I know it’ll take time but in the mean time, I’ll enjoy the happy memories and look back at the happy pics and videos I have with them.

Twosun TS222 Titan ($50) https://imgchest.com/p/agyv6pznb78
I’ve owned a lot of TwoSuns. I used to have a large collection until I whittled it down to four. Now I’m taking it down to three. The only one that doesn’t have titanium handles, but its freaking awesome. Mean-ass blade shape that reverse-flicks like a champ. Also has a back flipper if you’re into that sort of thing. It had digital camo G10, but I dyed them a dark purple. Believe me, it looks way better this way. 14c28n & G10. Out of production.
​
Real Steel Huginn ($50) https://imgchest.com/p/9249a9pva7n
Really dig this knife but I want to try the Rokot or the Muninn. I could easily see me buying this again. Excellent ergos and the crossbar lock is great. Love the size. Second owner, carried once, never cut. VG-10 & micarta. Retails for $95 on BHQ.

SOS Dagger OTF – ($80) https://imgchest.com/p/xny8zjkvwyb Before the Neptune, the SOS was the unquestioned king of OTFs around $100 and under. I’ve had both and while I like the Neptune a little better, it’s too long for me to carry legally. Unfortunately, I’d rather have the drop point or tanto SOS than the dagger (which you cant buy anymore). I went in to grease the spring due to the knife having some “twang” on actuation and lost a part, and BladeOps was kind enough to sell me a brand new spring assembly, which I installed and greased. Sounds and works beautifully now. Aluminum body and D2 blade.
​
Viper Vale ($80) https://imgchest.com/p/lqyevb52z7dWas gonna price this at 100, but I really just want to move stuff. Jesper Voxnaes design. Excellent knife made in Italy. Great action and very ergonomic with the contoured and textured scales. Was sold to me as purple haze fat carbon, but I think it’s the Suretouch version, which has layers of G10 and rubber. They feel incredible. Really nice finger choil for choking up. Thumb studs work great for standard actuation or reverse flicking. Magnacut steel.
​
Becker BK18 ($70) https://imgchest.com/p/m9yxvaxzm4qThe Becker Harpoon. Bought this for my camp bag, but I was gonna strip the coating and give it a mustard patina. Even bought some custom scales (from Carroll’s Custom Knife Scales) to go with it afterward, but my old camp knife is still in my bag. Might as well just take the “L” and pass this on to someone that might use it. Custom scales included along with the stock nylon sheath, which has excellent retention. 1095 Cro-Van and stock Ultramid scales. Bought new, never carried, but did unbolt the stock scales to check custom scales fit. They’re perfect. Knife retails for $105 on BHQ. Scales were $50 direct from Carroll’s Ebay store.
​
Real Steel Ippon ($40) https://imgchest.com/p/qb4z3r8ev7j Very interesting knife from Real Steel here. Blade disappears completely in the handle. Has a neat top flipper that work well as a front flipper as well. Heard someone say that the top flipper was designed to also function in an impact/attitude adjuster capacity and I can totally see it. Smooth action. Wish the lockbar access was a bit better but it works fine. Bought new by me and carried once, never cut. N690 and G10. Retails for $71 on BHQ.
​
The “Crossbar” Bundle ($50) https://imgchest.com/p/9249annka7nTwo crossbar lock knives with excellent action.CJRB Prado – Bought recently here, and really torn on selling this one. Love the knife. Its pretty big and the blade looks fantastic. Crossbar lock action is good and the ergos are really nice. Never carried, never cut. AR-RPM9 and G10.Oknife Rubato – Picked up in a bundle. Why does Oknife have seemingly 47 different Rubatos? Anyway, this is the tanto crossbar lock one. All blacked out other than some blue accents. Crossbar lock works well and I’m impressed by the knife.I think I like the action even better than the Prado. I don’t do black blades or this kind of tanto unfortunately. Maybe one of the other 46 versions are more my speed. 154CM with G10. Never cut or carried by me. No box.
​
The “Cool Kids 2.0” Bundle ($50) https://imgchest.com/p/md7olppb97p A couple of awesome budget knives that you don’t see everywhere. Be a cool kid. Buy these knives. Bestech Skirmish – Love this blade shape, but I just picked up a TwoSun that fills the same kinda niche. Very fidgety and easy to reverse flick. Handle really fills the hand and is very comfortable. First owner and never cut/never carried. D2 & G10 Trivisa Leo – Bought this for shits and giggles thinking I might dye the scales. I didn’t. Been so busy and I need to cut down on my projects. Reverse flicks well and the back flipper performs like it should. Cool knife. 14c28n & G10

LET'S GET HYPED!!!!

Images: https://imgur.com/a/ofP5ubz (NSFW warning, kind of: There is a pic of my legs after a 150 km ride, if that is considered sensitive)
I profited from a 5-day vacation streak in France and decided to do some cycling. I wasn't planning to do 500 km in 5 days, but I got the idea of doing this personal challenge after day 2.
The bike is a mid to late '70s (as far as I can tell) French model, with 3 Reynolds 531 double-butted tubes, center pull brakes, steel rims, 50-40 teeth in the front, and 22-20-18-16-14 teeth in the back.
Nutrition consisted of a large breakfast (or lunch) pre-ride, a big snack about 3 or 4 hours mid-ride (for the 100+ km rides), and a recovery meal of at least 6 eggs and plenty of carbs and fiber post-ride. Specifically, for breakfast I did a couple of eggs, some cheese, some rye bread with butter and honey, a couple of figs with a handful of walnuts and dark chocolate, 1 banana, some fish oil, 1 coffee, 1 green tea, 1 ginger tea, some magnesium, and a lot of water; for lunch I did a big plate of hard wheat pasta with plenty of olive oil and sardines, and 1 coffee; and mid-ride I would drink plenty of water and eat a sandwich and/or some pizza, 1 banana, and sometimes would top up with something small with protein and fats like a can of sardines and/or some pâté.
I am quite fit as a person, in my late 30s, don't smoke, rarely drink, avoid refined sugars as much as possible (probably completely, if I look back on my diet), and do a good amount of strength training (push-ups and squats). So, I'm still feeling fresh today and I could keep on going, but it started getting a bit boring towards the end of it and, in any case, I will start working again from tomorrow :)
I guess that the main point that I'm trying to get across is that a healthy diet and an overall active and clean lifestyle can do you a lot of good; IMHO if you want to ride in order to gain strength and endurance, I really cannot see any need for doing refined sugars/carbs, since a healthy metabolism can be very powerful with real food.
Happy and safe rides!

I woke up this morning and weighed myself…. 195.8lbs. I’m from the UK and 14 stone is my limit. I am just 0.2lbs away from this.
I had a late night and I spent yesterday caring for my parents. I’m SO tired and my feet HURT but I have decided today will be the perfect day to start 75 Hard.
Why? Because I rarely feel this rubbish so if I can get through today, there’s no reason why I can’t do any other day.
I’ve taken my first progress pic, done my first outdoor workout (walk) and I’ve started on my water.
Diet wise I have decided to stop snacking as I know this is what puts me in a calorie surplus.
I’m hoping to lose weight and more importantly, gain some control over looking after myself!
Posting here for accountability because I’m terrible for talking myself out of stuff.

I am a white American mam (53M) I married a much young woman from the Philippines (30M) we have been married for 10 yeas now. Originally we both aggreed to not want any more kids. I have one grown daughter who is a very successful engineer.
However during covid my wife decided she really wanted a child after her little sister had her second daughter. I didn't feel it was my place to deny this of her even though I throughly went through how hard it is to raise a child and all the opportunities she would be giving up in doing so, prior to this we had done a lot of traveling and adult type activities that you clearly can no longer easily do with a child. She said she clearly understood and just really want this experience. I was also very if not overly stressed the serious of my age and the fact I have not the energy to be an active coparent and she would be the primary caregiver so there was never any misconception or misunderstanding.
However with all that she decided she really wanted it so I supported her decision. She has never ever went to college or ever worked a job in her life even though I have strongly and repeatedly encouraged and begged so she would have much fuller and security in her life. She just continues to out it off. She also doesn't even have a driver's license only a learners permit because she just always cancels the test and makes excuses. It is very hard to practive her driving now with a young child in the car.
But my main issues is she is a very loving, caring wife. She is excellent at playing and showing love. The problem is she act much more like a big sister to our daughter and at times more like a spoiled entitled teenage than a wife even though she is 30 years old now!! It use to be cute when she was younger but it has long past that now.
Recently more and more often our daughter has gotten hurt, nothing major but many minor injuries when I am not around. I have preached Safety, Safety, Safety FIRST to exhaustion. But these things keep happening.
I am just very worried about my daughter's future. She is turning 3 in a couple of weeks, still interested potty trained. My first daughter was potty trained by 18 months. I feel my daughter now is more than ready, she is very excited when you put her on there and she goes. But she just hasn't got the understanding to tell ahead of time yet. Biggest problem there is ZERO routine, with waking up, bedtime, meals or anything at all she is still breastfeeding but my daughter prefers to eat regular foods but breaks my heart when I hear her regularly saying she is hungry and my wife tends to feed her cearal or a sugary snack instead of cooking a balanced meal ever. My daughter ask to go to Costco often and have figured out it is just because she is desperately searching out the free samples!! I have talked to my wife repeatedly about the importance of a routine over and over but nothing ever changes. My wife is more focused on just uploading pics to youtube and getting likes and stars or hearts whatever than anything else.
If she was a nanny she would have been fired long ago!!
I love my wife so very much and my daughter is my heart and joy. But I don't know what to do, because I was very recently diagnosed with stage 1 heart failure and had a ministroke dec 2023. I am soo stressed out for my daughters future. My wife is a wonderful playmate to her but lacking in any meaningful way of being an adult or good mother or wife.
Anytime my daughter gets hurt or something bad happens anytime I try and have a serious talk. My wife ends up crying..instead of being the adult to take care of the situation with our daughter she makes it all about herself and how holding her to any type of meaningful responsibility is some how unfair and hurtful to her.
I just do not know what to do anymore. I am so stressed and sick to my stomach with worry all of the time.
Any and all serious advice would be greatly appreciated.

Rant about green flag kt.

Also Noone has proposed to one another yet We just in dating phase, not in relationship 🤷🏼‍♂️
Continuation...
So as usual hami tya bhaktapur bata wednesday farkyem ghar. Then we chatted for a while and she continuously requested me to rant about her and so whats I did. But she was expecting a roast lol Haha.

Are we stuck in rom com movie?
Excited for the next meet. What future holds for us?

I (17F) have not gotten over my ex (17M) and I can’t tell if he feels the same
Over the past couple of weeks, my ex (17M) had become so intimate with me to the point where people are shocked to find out that we’re not dating.
Unfortunately him and I have no class periods together but we do have art club after school, lunch, between passing periods together, and a few minutes after school. Sometimes he even skips his 9th period math class to come with me or once he begged me to come to his class bc he was lonely. During the passing periods, we usually talk lively with each other and sometimes he reaches down to hold my hand or when I don’t have my backpack, he wraps his arms around my waist and walks with me with his head on my shoulder. One time when he was doing that, some of his friends were behind him and they were shouting “RIZZ?! CHAT DOES HE HAVE THE RIZZ??” and I was smiling since it was funny to me and I turned my head a bit to see his reaction and his face was pink as hell and he was smiling too and later my other friend called him “Rizzy his name” and he ran up to him and slammed him onto a locker but he wasn’t mad it was more of a joke since his face was still pink and he was smiling.
During lunchtime, we sit right next to each other and sometimes he caresses my thigh for a split second or pokes or slaps it as a joke and I really don’t mind. He is also aware that I have an eating disorder (possibly anorexia) so he begs me to eat all of the time and confiscate my phone for the lunch period if I don’t eat. He even HAND FEEDS ME too. When I bring my own lunch sometimes, he eats some of it FROM THE SAME UTENSIL and is like “Here you need to eat the rest ok?” He’s really kind to me like whenever he has snacks of his own, he always shares with me and he sort of holds it out so that I could eat it from his hand. Or one time he had a huge bag of takis and everyone begged for some and he restricted them to one piece only and when I asked, “Hey uh how many can I get?” he nudges the bag towards me and says, “however many you’d like.” Lunch time is where he is most intimate since he randomly wraps his arms around my waist and sort of naps on my chest or when I out my head on his shoulder, he moved my arm so that it would wrap around his waist or he moved my head onto his soft chest. Every now and then he tends to ask me if he can carry me and I get really nervous about it since I’m scared I’m too heavy but he carries me anyway and I tend to like squeal and try to tell him stop but he’s just sort of laughing. I remember one time I sat down at the table later than usual since I was in the restroom and when he turned and saw me from behind, he ran to me and sort of jump tackled me and I was like “Woah what happened?” And he’s like “Oh nothing I was just looking for you :)” Another time I arrived late again and when my friend said “oh look she’s here” I see him turn immediately and hold out his arms and I walk to him and he hugs me and nudges his head deeper onto my chest. He has lend me his jacket once before since I was cold and it was the one time he brought his jacket but other times when I’m cold he hugs me tightly and caresses me since he doesn’t have his jacket. When I’m sad (it happens a lot) he does an amazing job of comforting me.
When he skips 9th period for me in art or art club, things just get as intimate as ever. I’ll try not to type to much since this is getting pretty long but he wraps himself around my waist as usual and we share AirPods and all and for some reason both of us seem pretty shy to each other like I can tell his voice changes to a higher pitch and his cheeks get a bit pink. Sometimes I skip athletics and he skips math so we could go to our art class and hang out and work. But when I do have athletics, I come out of school in my athletic clothes like the school shirt and some pretty short shorts and head over to art club on Tuesdays. I sit down right next to him and I see him stare at my legs and he puts his hands right over them and makes a squeezing motion but like doesn’t actually touch my thighs and I just smile at him. He lets me rest back in his and he caresses my hips and stomach and gets really close to my face. Whenever I get up to see my friends painting he comes right behind me that I could feel him right behind me and he tries to hold my hips. When he hugs me and puts his head in my chest I caress his head and play with his hair and his face just gets pink. He even says “Hey I’m gonna pick you up wedding style” and I get all flustered like “UH WHAT NO WHAT IF WE GET IN TROUBLE” and so he picks me up bridal style and outs me in his lap while I’m over here squealing and I jump off and he’s like “ Aw man I was going to leave you in my lap for a bit and then pick you up again.”
Now here I’m going to explain our history of dating and everything.
Last school year is when we met and we instantly clicked like we had EVERY thing in common and I was so happy to find someone who understood me. After time he began to flirt with me all the time and sometimes I flirted back but I had this crush on an online guy (16M). For some reason I had found (17M) hideous back then but my mindset now is that he is most gorgeous person ever no matter his flaws. Anyways he hugged me all the time and flirted with me and we talked ALL THE TIME but a few months later I confessed then dated (16M). (17M) used to tell me about this girl he liked but never told me her name and only described her as smart and kind but the way he described her looks turned out to be just like mine. Over the summer I was still dating (16M) but I flirted and texted (17M) all the time that I developed strong feelings for him. The new school year had began and I decided to break up with my online bf for (17M). (17M) and I became a lot closer and the flirting went on to a point that he would ask me permission for him to kiss my cheek or squeeze my thighs. A month or two after this I asked abt how he felt abt the girl and he said “I think I’ll give up on her because I don’t think she likes me back.” Right then and there I confessed my feelings to him and he confessed as well and we started dating. The time we dated was the best time of my life because I had my first kiss and many others with him. He treated me so well and I felt like I could do anything if he was by my side. This was the only time I had ever felt so loved by someone and I had never felt this way about anyone else. After a few months of dating my friend (16F) decided to go attack him over text and tell him about all the things I had said abt him like me crying and being anxious abt him losing interest since he was being dryer and also at the fact that he cheated on me. To explain this furthermore, a couple weeks before, I had told him we couldn’t be together because of my strict parents and in his point of view he saw it as a break up but staying fwb while I thought we were still dating since he treated me the same way he did before after I said all that. Turns out that the reason why people were saying he was cheating was bc he sucked an older guy off three days after meeting him because he had felt lonely and unloved from me and was also losing interest. He was unaware that I thought we were still dating and he sincerely apologized but I had a whole panick attack and after my friend attacked him over text (keep in mind he hates my friend and has warned me multiple times about controlling her since she’s reckless). He gave me back the necklace I gave him for our monthly anniversary that day and said it was officially over. I stopped talking to him for a week after that but then we forgave each other and became friends again. A month after our breakup,new years, I found out he got into an online relationship with this guy a year older than him that lives like halfway across the country and my heart was broken. I was still friends with him but like he treated me like a normal person now like he never hugged me or didn’t seem that excited to see me. Or when I would hug him, he wouldn’t hug me back and stand as stiff as a board. Compared to now, he’s pretty different like he’s eager to hug me all the time and loves seeing me. Timeskip to now, 4 months later. He doesn’t mention his bf at ALL anymore and one time my friend, let’s call her A, asked him while he was holding my waist, “Dont you have a bf?” And he shook his head and I was so confused and later he pulled her aside to talk to her and later A told me that he basically didn’t really have a bf bc they hardly texted at all. A wouldn’t tell me more though since I was being too nosy. I can’t tell if he had feelings for me though since he doesn’t flirt with me at all like he used to when he liked me. Texting with him is such a struggle because he texts SO DRYLY it frustrating but then again he’s more of a physical in person kinda person and struggles to communicate over text. He’s also very busy most of the time but last week, every single day after school, he asks if I want to call with him and I say yes when I can but near the end of the week I started saying no bc my parents were home more often and I couldn’t call him. The week after that he stopped asking which kinda confused me bc I thought maybe he was losing interest in talking to me or was just aware that my parents were home most of the time and I wouldn’t most likely say no. Although last school year he used to talk with me a whole lot more and flirt all the time but I’m so confused now like what happened to him? I through I had with the possibility of him liking me was that maybe he thinks that if he flirts with me, I’ll think or figure out that he likes me since I figured it out easily last last year. Recently after getting with his bf, when I was cold he strongly refused to give me his jacket bc of our history but now he apologizes for forgetting it at home and he willingly lends me it when he does have it. My friends say he’s a bad person though for what he did but I know he’s a kind person inside and he himself has said he had no bad intentions and hates the guy he sucked off with his whole heart for many reasons. My other friend says this girl, let’s call her P, that Ricardo treats similarly to me like always asking if I’m ok or hugging all the time which really hurt my feelings but this week I saw him in the library since his art class was moved and it’s the one class he had with the girl so I check through the window to see what he’s doing to her but surprisingly he’s sitting alone at a table. Over text he begs me to come to the library with him but I kindly say no since I had to report to the gym for a rehearsal. I saw him later and he’s like “I really hate my class. I basically have no one to talk to.” And I said “What abt P?” And he’s like “Oh her? Well we don’t really have much to talk about whenever we’re together and it’s just ehh.” And that really lifts my spirits and now I know that he no longer treats her like he does to me. I forgot to mention this earlier my like two weeks ago, we were chatting over text and out of NOWHERE yes literally nowhere, he sends me a SHIRTLESS PIC. I freak out so bad and start typing “HEBKWODHEBW” like gibberish and I ask abt the pic but he says “huh wdym”. This is really messing with my brain whether he likes me or not and I could really use some help. I apologize for such a long story 😅

Idk if this is just me issues (I'm neurodivergent) or my center.
Our group is a couple months old to almost 4 years old. We have 11-16 kids. We are in ratio according to their postings (says we can have 16 children together, three of which can be infants, but state is confusing how they have it posted so idk how accurate the daycare actually is), but I seriously feel like most days we're near drowning and constantly falling behind schedule when we actually have all our kids. On top of that, I swear the goal posts keep moving. Both myself and my coworker are newer (1.5-4 months in). and have gotten in trouble just this week for:
1)doing diapering wrong (we weren't washing the hands of the infants and very young toddlers who don't touch anything, but we also weren't trained to. We have since corrected this. I will say it is interesting to say the least to wash the youngest one's hands in the tiny sink, because we aren't allowed to use our "kitchen sink" that's our height. Definitely a struggle I wish I could forgo the minimum 5 times a day with Baby lol).
2) the school area of our classroom being set up wrong. (We didn't set it up. We were just moved into it, but apparently that was our fault because we should have known somehow).
3) AND we're doing school wrong apparently. (But we can't keep even the older children's attention long enough to go through everything they're wanting us to. We lose them about the time we hit the presidents and states/capitols. The toddlers we lose maybe half way in when we hit seasons and weather. We haven't even implemented all the signs they're wanting us to go through each day. But we're literally trying our best. As it is, one person has to take both individual and group pics--all labeled--for all the children and often while holding and feeding one of the infants and keep corralling the kids back to the table as they try to leave.) As a side note, we're also in a little bit of trouble for not knowing ALL the little kid songs, school songs, and all the baby signs (that we weren't told/given or told to do.). We did both know enough Spanish between the two of us at least so we're good there.
3) told we were letting the children play too much. We've let them play during diapering, as needed. They want all the kids done within 30 mins so that we stay on schedule. Meaning it takes both of us, one doing all the diapers and one doing the potty trainers and washing all the hands. They're apparently only supposed to have play time twice a day (before I start my shift and almost at the end of my shift). I'm honestly not sure what they're expecting here. And just for the record, neither of us knew we had a schedule to follow outside of this: School time, Storyboards and Reading, Coloring and Activity of the Day, Lunch Routine, Nap time, Snack Routine, School Time repeated. (Plus diapers every 2 hours of course). Neither one of us did more than this loose scheduling during our training period.
4) Toys not being organized properly at the end of each day. (They are always at bare minimum mostly organized. We do our best to make sure they are fully organized again before we walk out the door, but sometimes we just miss things or sometimes didn't check every bin well enough because we ran out of time.)
And as an aside is this normal? I know we clean our own rooms during nap time once we get all the kids asleep/calm. I expected that. Totally good with that. What threw me was lunch. Is it normal to make our kids lunch trays/prep lunch drinks in our room? I'm trying not to feel irritated because at least we aren't have to cook it, only portion it. But man does that slow every thing down with expected documentation and pictures too! Because we have to get pics of the tray and kid together before they eat anything. Meaning we are serving two kids at at time (if one of us isn't having to feed any/all of the babies) and make the documented post, which can lead to tantrums on bad days because kids are hungry! And we do all our own dishes, which I expect bottles/sippy cups/cups, but I did not expect the trays/bowls/silverware lol.
So during nap time we're supposed to get all the kids to sleep, clean/sweep/Swiffer mop or regular mop/disinfect the room and bathroom, do the dishes, finish the children's projects and display them as needed, and plan (and prep if needed) for the next day's activity (or the next week if we didn't have the right supplies and have to ask permission for supplies. Otherwise we have to buy our own or come up with something else that we haven't done before)
I'm honestly just so frustrated right now. I love the kids, I love what I'm doing honestly. I just feel very overwhelmed (some of it is like from unclear rules). My coworker is overwhelmed too. And we work well together as a team, but most of the time it's chaos (in a bad way, not the good kind of kid chaos) and playing catch up, and getting scolded for something we knew nothing about or couldn't help.

Humor: Much more lighthearted than this profile suggests. Weird mix of edgy and silly. I love mean/offensive humor (ironically, I'm sensitive when I need to be). I love word play and will make puns. Groans and laughs are equally welcome.
Love language: Physical touch, quality time. Gift giving is too transactional for me to be comfortable, but I do enjoy small things like dropping off your favorite food/snack by your work. Even if we're doing our own thing, I want time with you by my side at least a few times a week. I'm totally comfortable just cuddling and chatting in bed for an hour.
Content Consumed: Lots of nonfiction youtube. I love to learn. I watch some anime here and there. Live action shows tend to be some form of comedy but I can be convinced to watch other stuff.
Worldviews: Atheist, nihlist, rational, pragmatic. Live and let live. Moderation in all things. You won't find me at protests or rallies but I try to act ethically towards everyone I meet.
Substance use: about once a month (prefer similar) Social activity: once or twice a month If I'm going out: outdoors > crowds and louds Primary escape/hobby: Video games and related activities Dabble/Desire hobbies: DIY, music, writing, hiking, paddleboarding, tennis Physical status: 180lbs (working on shedding a few), 5'10" Brown hair never long, I buzz it when it gets shaggy., Green eyes. No piercings or tattoos (don't mind if you do) Financial status: Own my home, no kids (sterile), decent savings. Frugal, but comfortable. Career: IT. Bachelor's Degree, Certification. Starting new Job with pension.
Your pic gets mine.

(flagged the post cause the picture might be triggering)
I’ve been following her for quite some time now because I really like some of her recipes.
However, it’s become pretty obvious that every single post is a body check and she seems to still restrict herself, even though she claims to have recovered. In most tiktoks(that are literally ab cooking)she pulls her pants down so we can see her flat stomach, she makes a ‘clean’ version of every snack and she posts pics in the weirdest uncomfortable positions(that’s why I consider them body checks).
Thoughts on her?

Hi Everyone,
We are an Indian Couple (M 32, F 31) who travelled Thailand for 8 days 7 Nights in March 2024. I first travelled to Thailand (Koh Pha Ngan, Krabi and Bangkok) back in 2019 (pre-covid) and wanted Thailand to be the first place to take my spouse on our First International Trip Together. Our itinerary this time consisted of Phuket, Khao Sok National Park and Bangkok. I had recently learned about Reddit and how to use it effectively and read a lot of info posted on this forum and now want to pay it back for future travelers. I have tried to share as much information as I can along with the transportation and accommodations we stayed during our trip. This is a packed itinerary, hence please feel free to tailor it as per convenience.
Day 1: Arriving at Phuket International Airport -> Phuket Old Town -> Wat Chalong -> A Blanket and a Pillow -> Kata Beach -> Sunday Night Market (Phuket Old Town)

• We landed in Phuket International Airport around 12 noon local time. Visa was free on Arrival and we had booked our SIMs in advance on Klook. We chose DTAC SIM Cards (10 Days Validity and 50 GB) and the counter was present as soon as you exit Immigration
• Once outside we proceeded towards Gate 6 Exit -> A short walk to Domestic Terminal Exit 3 -> Right outside you will find the Orange Bus to head to Phuket Old Town. The trip costed 100 Bhat each and we reached our accommodation at the Arbern Bistro Hotel in Phuket Old Town.
• After a brief refresh, we headed for lunch at Lao Pa Sat at the beautiful Phuket Old Town Street and then caught a Songthaew at Ranong Road to head to our first stop at Wat Chalong. We skipped the Big Buddha and directly headed via Grab for a relaxing sunset at 'A Blanket and a Pillow' followed by some beach time at Kata Beach.
• Finally once again took a Grab back to the Hotel, refreshed ourselves and went to the famous Sunday Night Market at Phuket Old Town which was just walking distance from our hotel. Tried a lot of the local foods and desserts and was a great way to End Day 1

Day 2: James Bond Island, Phang Nga Bay, Hong Island -> Back to Hotel -> Patong Beach and Bangla Road

• Booked a tour via Klook for James Bond Island, Phang Nga Bay and Hong Island with Kayaking options. Though great at first, it became a little monotonous with the constant kayaking to very similar cave structures. Lunch was decent.
• Got dropped back to the hotel and after a quick recovery proceeded to Patong Beach using the Blue Songthaews
• This was probably the best part of the trip. It was kind of like entering into a completely new vibe very different from Old Town Phuket. We had a fun time at the beach taking part in the open Zumba sessions in the evening, great food at shops and cafes and the mandatory walk down the famous Bangla road. We headed back via Grab to the hotel and called it a night.

Day 3: Phuket Old Town -> Khao Sok Village

• The next leg of the itinerary involved checking out from our stay, a short grab ride to Phuket Bus Terminal 2 and on a 3 hour bus ride to Khao Sok Village via Bus 465
• Once we reached the village, we had a hotel pick arranged to take us to "Our Jungle House" and post a quick lunch went to explore the village as well as partake in a traditional Thai massage.
• The town has a great sleepy, chill vibe but we had to get back early to our stay due to the distance and walking involved (Outside of the main road the pathways leading to the accommodation are not well lit) and called it a night.

Day 4: Khao Sok Village -> Khao Sok National Park

• We booked the 3 Day 2 Night Package with our hotel and hence Day 4 involved checking out from a Tree house stay, placing our main luggage with the Hotel and starting towards the Khao Sok National Park.
• After a 1 to 1.5 cab ride with a short stop to get some snacks, we arrived at the Pier and headed by Long Tail boat over the Cheow Lan Lake to our stay for the night - A floating bamboo house along with several other guests
• Post a quick lunch, we had some fun with snorkeling and kayaking and in the evening headed out for a hike followed by a bamboo raft ride to some caves. We were fortunate enough to witness an elephant in the forest having its daily snack.
• We witnessed a beautiful sunset and were back to our accommodation and shortly after dinner, called it a night. We had difficulty in getting sleep due to frequent power outages and warm nights as well some bit of movement from the waves.

Day 5: Khao Sok Village -> Surat Thani Airport -> Bangkok

• We woke up pretty early to witness a beautiful sunset, headed out for a short boat ride to witness birds and limestone structures in the morning, had breakfast and headed back to the Pier
• Once at the pier, we went back to our hotel in Khao Sok Village, had lunch and then had a mini van arranged to take us to the Surat Thani Airport for the flight to Bangkok
• We arrived in Bangkok at 9 30 pm and then took the A2 Bus to Victory Monument. These buses are parked in front of the Arrival Hall on the first floor of Terminal 1 (Exit No 6)
• After a 1 hr ride to Victory Monument, had dinner and proceeded to our accommodation for the next 3 nights at Fyn Park Hotel near Victory Monument

Day 6: Grand Palace -> Wat Pho -> Wat Arun -> Asiatique Riverfront -> Khao San Road

• Started our bright and early and proceeded from Victory Monument BTS to Saphan Takshin BTS - Proceeded to Sathon Pier and took the boat with the Orange Flag.
• Proceeded to the Grand Palace, went for Lunch at a place called "The Sixth", Wat Pho followed by Wat Arun. In Wat Pho we also partook in a Traditional Massage and was a great experience. Wat Arun was bit of a surprise with a lot of locals dressed in traditional clothing and having photographers clicking their pics. It was difficult to navigate or admire the beauty of the place without getting in someone's way.
• Post the temple visit, we took the Ferry to Asiatique Riverfront - Absolutely loved the vibe of the place and spent a good 1-2 hours exploring the different food joints.
• We then took the last Ferry out from Asiatique to Phra Arthit to explore the infamous Khao San road. The Ferry ride in the night moving from the well established side of Bangkok with High rise buildings to witnessing the beautiful Wat Arun in the night was a tourist attraction in itself. Finally arrived at Phra Arthit and proceeded to have dinner at "Madame Musur Bar and Restaurant".
• It was time to hit Khao San road and man what an experience. Loud Music, line of people inviting us to step into their pubs and bars, it was confusion and chaos at max. We briefly stepped into a Seven Eleven to catch up breaths and hydrate ourselves and witnessed the biggest line in a Seven Eleven I have seen in all of Thailand. Multiple people queuing up with liquor, snacks, quick bites and then proceeding to head out in the jungle of Khao San.
• We then booked a grab back to our stay after thoroughly enjoying what Khao San had to offer.

Day 7: Klong Lat Mayom Floating Market -> Chinatown -> Talad Noi -> Lumpini Park -> Jodd Fairs Night Market

• Once again an early start to the Victory BTS to Bang Khun Non MRT and then took Exit 3 to catch the free feeder bus to Klong Lat Mayom Floating Market. Explored the market for a couple of hours as well as went on a boat ride along the riverways of the market
• Returned back via feeder bus to the BTS station and headed to Wat Mangkon MRT which is the famous Chinatown - Had a quick lunch and first ventured to Talad Noi to capture in the beauty of the wall paintings as well as a quick coffee stop at Mother Roaster.
• Proceed to walk around Chinatown, grab snacks along the way and then headed to Lumpini Park via BTS
• Spent the evening at Lumphini park and took a grab back to the hotel
• Post some time, we proceeded towards the Jodd Fairs Night Market at Rama 9 for Dinner and returned back to the hotel

Day 8: China Town Shopping

• Our final day was reserved for Shopping and we went to Chinatown to pick up souvenirs and gifts for friends and family. We did want to go to Chatuchak Weekend Market but the shopping at China Town took a lot more time than expected and we could not get to see this amazing place. Hopefully next time we will have the fortune of visiting Chatuchak.
• Checked out from the hotel, took a grab to DMK Airport and post the mandatory duty free liquor and chocolate shopping landed safely at the Chennai International Airport

Note: This is my first time detailing out an itinerary and would love to seek feedback. I plan to add photos and probably add a few places to the list which have been missed. Please let me know in the comments if there is any specific information which is needed from our Itinerary. I really enjoy travelling to Thailand and experiencing the beautiful country and thankful for this reddit group with awesome tips and guidance.

Let's call the first one Tia and the Second one Jessica. I've known Tia for 7 years and we've been besties 4ever since 6. She is the friend I manifested and literally the dream friend people would wish for except there is a small problem which is that she is over possesive. She is gives me elder sister vibes and loves to spoil me.
However for Jessica, I've known her for almost 11 years now. Jessica is literally my soulmate for me, my other half. Jessica lives in my neighborhood so I practically grew up with her and I can't imagine my life w/o her.
They both didn't know about the existence of each other until recently and all hell broke loose really, I'm to blame for this honestly but now I need help fixing it.
Like I mentioned, Tia is over possesive and Jessica, I would say is Possesive but unlike Tia's it doesn't make me much of uncomfortable and instead I find it kinda cute.
So what happened is Tia just cannot stand me prioritising Jessica over her and now wants me to either be only besties with Jessica or be only good friends with Jessica and best friend with her and this mostly happened cuz of a pfp.
I promised Tia to keep a photo of us as pfp later on after March sometime and so I kept it but then Jessica was mad about it so I asked her what can I do to make up with her and she asked was some snacks but one time when I was hanging out with her (like I said Jessica lives close to me so it was more common then me hanging out with Tia) she secretly changed my pfp to a pic of us. I just told Tia sorry for changing our pfp without prior notice and I thought it was fine cuz Tia didn't really say anything about it later, but then yesterday she called me when I was at Jessica's house and Jessica playfully was cutting the phone again and again even though I told her not to.
Tia called several times and Jessica kept hanging up but then I finally picked up and told her that I am out and will talk to u later. I thought it was done there but then she called again after a few mins and was like where are u? Who are u with? And mostly why did you change the pfp with someone else when she clearly has our pic as her pfp?
I told her that I'm at Jessica's house and that Jessica only changed it without my permission, she was really agitated and I just told her that I'll ttyl cuz I was at her house.
After about half an hour I'd say I went home and called Tia. Tia was very angry and felt like I didn't care about her (which isn't true) and she was like let's break our friendship and all cuz you like her more than me. I just didn't know what explanation to give even so I didn't even say anything and hung up. Later she called me again and was like so you really don't care about me anymore? Fine then end of our friendship. I again didn't know what to say so she just hung up. However I realised wtf I was doing so I quickly texted her and was like what can I do to make up to you and now left me with an ultimatum.
I texted Jessica about this today and she was like, pick to be besties with her and only good friends with me. But I really don't know. My gut feelings tell me to choose Jessica above Tia but I'm not sure cuz I have already made a wrong decision in an ultimatum once and don't want to repeat the same mistakes.
What should I do? Pls help or leave any advice you'd like.
