Reluctantly trying to figure this out.
Don’t own and have never regretted that. We don’t host. When I married there would have been lots of room for it in that house; this house has no space for it (also partially why we don’t host). Mom got rid of her mom’s set, knew me and sister would never want it. 🤷‍♀️

Yeah, my sister and I started doing that a few years back, when we realized we were just trading money back and forth for kids’ presents. Support this idea!!

Thanks for posting this. My MIL was diagnosed w stg4 back in March and we can’t believe she’s still with us. 20 months! Wow.

This is fantastic.
Would you actually use the gift cards and purchase new ones each year, or keep swapping literally the same cards back and forth?

That’s brilliant!

In the next few weeks my plan will be just parking lots for my kid but I don’t intend to do roads until they start class (one month away.) (I drove ‘roads’ but it was a subdivision only just being built so no traffic yet).

Okay I absolutely want to try this

At first glance (without time to overanalyze), I appreciate your story, but wonder if you might be a little more clear with what it is you’re asking for. Like, ask for some actionable item. Does that make sense? Reinstate the office person, add locks, have a brainstorming meeting w key folks (you)

Oh! This is breathtaking!!
October 19, 2025 at 5:58 PM
Oh wow. I am so sorry. Sending you peace and comfort today and for many, many days to come.

If the stupid glitter glue bottles are basically impossible for my preschoolers to squeeze independently, (that shit is thick, yo!) THEN OFFER A DIFFERENT ART OPTION. TRASH THE GLITTER GLUE!
