I thought this too. Having been on the receiving end of this myself, I may not be angry enough to kill my s/o, but I would certainly wear shoes in his house lol

Found!

Received as a gift around 1994. This is from Massachusetts, in September of that year. Unfortunately I have no other photos. I have searched different combinations of “wooden painted rocking horse piggy bank 1994” as well as image searches. There is a clear bubble between the legs of the horse, and that is where the coins would be stored.

I have been unable to find out who gifted me the item and therefore cannot ask. My mother doesn’t remember. If it was her, she would frequently shop at bargain stores in this area (Ames, Bradley’s)

Not even just with breakups. “I had all and then most of you, some and now none of you” is a direct gut punch as a parent

Same exact thing with me and my mom. It happened when I was in my early 20s, I moved out for about 7 years and nothing happens at the apartment. This past year I bought the house from my parents during the divorce, mom still lives with me. Shortly before I move back in she hears me calling for her, enough that she instinctually responds, before realizing I’m still at my apartment.

After I move back in I give birth, so I’m awake more at night. I hear the sound of her walking in her slippers. During the day, I hear very distinct sounds my baby makes when he’s out with his dad (not crying), as well as my 10-year-old speaking when she’s at school. Most recently an unrecognized voice saying “alright”, from an area I couldn’t pinpoint. Never hear it mimic my husband, though. Carbon monoxide detectors to the max in this house, all brand new from October.

Not the scariest, just the most recent.

Behind my house is a street with several houses and a forest. Walking at night heading towards the forested section, I saw headlights behind the trees. I didn’t think much of it initially, figured it was a car driving on the main street, but quickly realized there is no street in that direction for a few miles. It wouldn’t be possible to see it through the trees. There are no trails wide enough for a car to travel through, as I’ve hiked through the woods for many years.

Turned around and went back home.

It’s possible it was two people evenly spaced apart with flashlights or something… but I got headlight vibes.

The advice you’ve received really covers it. Don’t go back.

I just want to add that, if there’s a part of you thinking that this was just a slip up and he loves you… to strangle or suffocate someone to the point of them almost losing consciousness requires such a deep disdain for that individual it goes beyond “a moment of rage”. This act takes time and strength. He looked into your face as you fought for your life and continued to be the one to threaten it. Your partner should want to protect you, he wants to harm you.

My guess is that they don't want to buy additional gifts. The first party may have been a zoom party, but people still spent money on gifts and may think a second baby shower within such a short timeframe is excessive. I know people throw "sprinkles"... I'm not sure what the expectation is for those.
Personally, I would reschedule the party and send new invitations that specify "no gifts, please". If there was a registry on the current invitation, you may want to personally apologize to the recipients and explain that the registry was an error.

Her phone has been off since the 1st of the year

I think its possible that this communication between her and the firm went more along the lines of "I'll see what I can do to get there". With the phone being turned off, there was no way to follow up with her - its possible they assumed she was unsuccessful and someone else managed the emergency in her stead.
Personally the phone being off is such a red flag for me, but her relationship with her family is so different from the norm so I'm hesitant to speculate *too* much

Also, It is not uncommon for people to go to the airport in person to wait on standby especially if they frequent flights.Saying "She didn't head to airport 2 days early... there was no uber/lyft" leaves out the fact that police are currently investigating the possibility of an offline rideshare agreement. It also ignores the reports that she apparently left early due to a work emergency.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n1AJjen2mMs about 2:20 mark

idaho4 is a different type of neighborhood. I live on a main road with similar traffic to 3A - my ring camera does not activate when cars drive by on the street. Just too many cars.

I'm going by what police have said - I was able to watch the actual conference. He states that its not uncommon for regular commuters to go "offline" for rideshare services, and he currently has detectives investigating that.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n1AJjen2mMs around 2:30

edit: its around 2:20

Ring cameras showed no cars entering the neighborhood. My issue with this information is that the “neighborhood” is essentially a dead end driveway with one other home on it, and a car shop at the entrance. If she walked down to the road, I’m not sure that the ring camera on that other house would register the vehicle, route 3a is relatively busy.

edit: my other guess had been maybe cameras saw her leave, but they do not have video of her leaving source: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n1AJjen2mMs about 4:45

There’s the possibility that she had a contact for ride share, but that’s not really discussed in the press release. Just that they “can’t verify she was picked up”.

Sounds like dead in bed syndrome. That's our boogie man... genuinely scary

I got diagnosed with type 1 at 29 years old with no family history.
Stories of people dying in their sleep from (presumed) low blood sugar.
I have ADD as well... many times I have taken insulin and gotten distracted before eating and only remember when I start shaking. But sometimes I don't get warning symptoms, I'll just suddenly act "drunk".
I'm only 31 now, so it is still new to me. The diet is so difficult and bland. Going out to eat guarantees my sugar shoots up to 400 (even with the pump) because restaurants put sugar in unexpected places. I miss being able to enjoy treat food without feeling some sort of remorse.

Honest question, I don't mean for this to sound rude. Why do business owners sign up with them? Or whatever the proper term is
I was researching because a place I used to order through previously had their own delivery... they switched to using doordash. They still have their own web order system and everything, I didn't even know it was DD until I got a text update.. and of course a much higher delivery fee

This! I quit smoking cigarettes, and wouldn’t you know it… food immediately took its spot. I’m a diabetic, on an insulin pump, so I’m gaining weight in record time. Went from size 2 last year, pushing size 10 now. It’s so tempting to go back to smoking… seeing as either one will kill me

I’m 2 months in - my stomach is more sensitive than ever and most things will trigger post nasal drip, which causes cough/throat clearing. Try to eat a really simple diet for a little while.

My mom quit after 50 years of smoking, she said you’ll feel worse before feeling better

I have my moms old jewelry chest with a small music box inside. My moms still alive and everything I just took it with me when I moved out. Well the music box hadn’t played for many years at that point (I was 28, maybe last heard it when I was 10). The music box played for a couple seconds randomly one day, my husband heard it too. I looked everywhere to see if it was another item, but this was the only music box. I took the whole thing apart, and discovered the music wheel contraption had completely separated from the rest of the contraption so it 1. Couldn’t spin and 2. Didn’t make contact with anything that could play the sound. I was so unnerved I called my mom to make sure she was okay and to told her just be careful. Nothing came of it in the end.

I’m a diabetic and I can’t thank you enough for posting this comment, a few hundred more people now know what low blood sugar looks like.

It’s not super predictable, I’ve had sugars in the 40s and remained coherent and only knew because my alert went off. In other situations I felt drunk before being alerted, and it comes on so suddenly. This guy probably knew his sugar was dropping but thought he has time for a meal 😞

Like??? I can smell the blood how is this sexy for me

got COVID last month and lost the cravings all together. I get them occasionally but nothing like before... it's so bizarre. I smoked for 10 years prior, only quitting during a pregnancy.

Dark Crystal Series. I thought they were doing a great job :(
