if you do receive a lot of packages, a camera system is a must. Alternatively, although very expensive, they sell delivery drop boxes. You can also leave addional delivery instructions like leave behind the house, in the garage. Lastly, it is also a bit expensive. You can use 3rd party mailboxes like UPS and send packages there hecause it is not a POBox.
That looks so good, nourishing and budget friendly. Crock pot season here we come! Thanks for sharing!
You're welcome! 😊
That cannot be all from one place. Lol
It is! This summer has been good to us for thrifting.
Looks good! Don’t you wish you could actually just snap and there’s dinner! 😅
If only! And snap away dishes and laundry!
Hi Pretzel!
👋👋
Adorable ❤
💞
😊 blessings to one another 🙏🏻 😊
😊
How do we get signed up for that
I'd go through an insurance broker. They'll find the best plan that fits both your health/doctor needs and your desire to have a flex card. Then you'd sign up through the broker.
Me too Hurricane Ida flooded my condo in 2021 ever since than I have serious ptsd and obsessively check the weather panic at a drop of rain. I spend more time worrying about if a hurricane will strike than living.
My heart breaks for you. I can only imagine.
@@NiftyThriftyMelissa thank you
I love the taste tests! Your kids are so sweet!
Aww, thank you! ❤️
The Black Angels: The Untold Stories of the Nurses who cured Tuberculosis by Maria Smilio Saw this on a ‘Booktok’ type of post. Looks like it might be about the Staten Island hospital and the nurse experience. I haven’t read it yet but looks interesting!
Thank you for telling me about this - I just added it to my list!
I love this! Everything looks so good. Happy Birthday! 😊
Thank you!
Love this!! How fun! P.s. Spaghizza!!!🎉🎉🎉
I just posted the recipe! 😆
Do you find it hard to find time to read each day? I have a hard time with that sometimes- as much as I want to.
Yes! I began reading again two-years-ago after not for years and I found I have to do it in the early morning before my kids get up. So anywhere between 5:45am - 7:30am I try to after doing chores.
Nope never heard of it! 😂😂😂😂😂❤
🤣
Do something pls
What do you mean?
@@NiftyThriftyMelissa Idk something Else Watch a movie Go Bowling Its holidays
@@AutisticDumbass , the point of these pictures is just to showcase the little moments of life. To take the time to savor the simple things we might take for granted.
Spaghizza!🎉🎉
You've heard of it?! No one has in all the years I've made it. 😊
Such an awesome resource!
🥰
I have a terrible fear of Thunderstorms or Heavy Rain.
Not many have this fear. It's so hard, I feel you.
My fear is flooding again and trying to get my 9 animals out of my house !
@@LostHorizons0 I hope this never ever happens again for you.
@@NiftyThriftyMelissa thank you me too !
What a great idea! I've seen all of those too!! LOVE the Nostalgia.
It's been a fun trip down memory lane and I get to talk about "the good old days" of my childhood. 😆
I wonder if you’re both iodine deficient? I started taking Lugols Iodine as a supplement and anything cyst like in my body just disappeared, nasal polyps, fibroid, fibrocystic breast tissue. Might be worth checking out. Lots of videos on YT about it.
I'm not sure. Mine, they assumed, was from an infected ingrown hair or pimple. I was misdiagnosed with a Baker's Cyst at first, when it was an infected abscess. My Mom's Baker's Cyst is a byproduct of her arthritis and Multiple Sclerosis.
Hello there! I think you’re doing everything right. It’s natural to feel frustrated and or confused when other parents turn down an offer to stay connected. But don’t be discouraged! Socializing can be hard in this day and age. I would suggest looking online for other homeschool groups with kids your son’s age. Maybe one group exists the next town over, if you’re able to travel? Here’s another possible suggestion that doesn’t necessarily involve exchanging numbers. You might offer to say: “My son had a really great time! We come to this park usually on Tuesdays mostly at noon! I hope we can meet up again some time!” Giving the other party a vague time and place for a potential second meeting is less forward than exchanging contacts. Maybe that can come after a 2nd or 3rd meeting when you and the other parent have spoken more. Or maybe the parent you do connect with knows about other local kid play groups or get-togethers during the summer months? Keep reaching out and stay positive! You sound like a lovely person to be around and I am sure your kids are too!
Thank you for your response! I'll tuck your suggestion away when we meet some potential friends outside of a dedicated prescheduled weekly activity, like the park or splash pad. I recently posted a few videos responding to some comments about this, one of which was our experience with local homeschool groups.
I completely relate, and my kid has spent many years in a classroom. I think the most success we've had was just by going to regular homeschool groups in our community and becoming friends with the other regulars. I would also argue that a classroom is not always the best place to make friends. My daughter never really clicked with very many of her classmates, and she was constantly distressed and distracted by the disruptive kids, which made it even harder for her to connect with people. It also doesn't help that we live in a low income neighborhood where there aren't many kids to begin with, and those that are here are often unsupervised and completely out of control (not the kind of people you'd want your kids to be friends with anyway). We tried private school and had similar issues with entitled children and parents who literally cannot relate to low income people. I think the heart of the matter comes down to people just not wanting to make the effort. My suggestion would be to start with local homeschool groups and go from there. If that doesn't work, consider starting your own group, even if it's just a regular park day. Advertise it on a local social media page and see who shows up. You might be pleasantly surprised to find that other parents are looking for the same connections too. Good luck.
Thank you for your response! It is very difficult to navigate when it feels like no one else is interested in working on connections. I recently posted a few videos responding to some comments about this, one of which was our experience with local homeschool groups.
I’m so glad you are doing better! Great information regarding skin checks, prevention is key.
❤
Wow! What an incredible deal! That’s awesome!
This is the only way to manage shopping at Publix!
Your life is my dream You should feel grateful and proud ❤ Wish you happiness
I wish for you all your hopes and dreams for your life to come true. 💖
Hope you feel better, God bless
Thank you!
That is such a wonderful resource! I love that they offer a full array of things people might need and even toys for kids. And the food boxes with fresh fruits and veggies too. That’s awesome. I hope you are feeling better soon!
This food bank is such a good one and luckily people use it. Thank you for your well wishes! ❤️
The wizard of oz was my favorite when I was young….
It's a childhood staple!
The Great Race, The Wizard of Oz, and Bedknobs and Broomsticks.
I love when someone else knows about The Great Race! 😊
Would be be interesting to read what it was like to work at North Brother!
Oh, now I want to find a book from that perspective!
@@NiftyThriftyMelissa can you imagine?! The history of North Brother Island could be a cool homeschool topic too.
@@Plateaupressure Absolutely!
Was this a dare or sum? 😂
Was I dared to make this video? Is that your question?
I’m so glad you are doing better!
🥰
if you can i would recommend exercising on top of weight loss prioritizing weight loss is good but you also lose muscle mass not as much as the fats your burning but doing weight loss for too long will eventually cut into your muscle in your body and can be unhealthy
Once I'm no longer on modified bed rest, I hope to figure out a movement plan.
Hope he is feeling better soon
Thank you!
Thanks for the update! Praying all stays good till you can see the doctor my friend! Hang in there!
❤️
So sweet! 💕
It was!
❤
🥰
Love you!
💞💞
looks like we know u dont like ur daughter that much
What an odd assessment to make. That's all she found that day was the purse. But thanks for the judgement! 🙃
Gosh, Melissa. Praying the doctor office processes your paperwork this morning PRONTO and gets you paired up with someone who can see you by Friday. Thank you for the update. Sending hugs. 🤗💚🙏🏻

Give the girl some Star Wars 2. I was alive when we saw the very first Star Wars movie in the theater and it was amazeballs because they made all of it no CGI
Oh, they'll definitely be passed onto her when she can read!
I am so sorry you are not doing well. Sorry you arenot getting the health care acess you need to. I am sending you love and prayers 💜 Hang in there my friend!! I hope soon it will slowly start to get better
Thank you for always being there with words of encouragement. ❤️
I can't hear you.
Oh no! It's all good on my end. Maybe raise your volume?
And sadly this nonsense is allowed because the people who make the rules have the money to private pay if they run into this situation. It for those of us that don’t have an extra $5K that isn’t an option. If you do have to go to another doctor I’d maybe start with a dermatologist and see if they can help, or at least maybe talk to the insurance for you.
It's all about business and not health. We have a list of back up plan doctors and dermatologist is on there now.
I am so sad and disappointed that even with insurance you are finding it so ridiculously difficult to access what is obviously the correct medical care for your condition. (I am personally sitting here in the US with ears that have been infected for 2 months. I have spent over $500 out of pocket to go to urgent care twice. The first time was 2 minutes of 'doctor' (actually a PA) time to get antibiotic eardrops and tablets, but the PA gave me no other instructions, such as keeping my ears dry when I shower or under what conditions to seek further treatment. I went to a different urgent care center a month later, where the doctor said I still have infection in both ears, though he could no longer see drainage, and my right ear drum is perforated. He prescribed cipro and said he was referring me to an ENT, which I was disappointed to realize seems to just mean he recommends I find one, as the discharge paperwork had no suggestion of who to contact. I now have an ENT appointment, but it is not until July. My ears feel like they have not improved since the 2nd appointment, and I am wondering whether to spend another $175 for a 3rd trip to a walk-in clinic. I have too many assets to qualify for benefits, I have not been able to work in 15 years (diagnosed chronic depression, but not on disability because the hearing judge thought someone whose mental illness makes them unreliable to show up could still work taking tickets at a theater), and I dread outliving my divorce settlement. Universal healthcare cannot come soon enough. Same for death with dignity for those of us whose psychiatric disorders leave us suicidal for years despite the best treatment we can manage.)
