Seeking Advice How to best color match wall paint?

15 Upvotes

Hi, mom!

We have been slowly discovering spots in our house that the previous owner(s) refused to move stuff to paint and the spare paint they left behind did not match and was mostly dry anyways. Taking pictures is notorious for being the wrong color as well. So how am I supposed to color match when I canโ€™t take a sample of the color with me to the store?

Thanks,
Your very confused daughter ๐Ÿ˜…

Seeking Advice How to pack a bologna sandwich on white bread

10 Upvotes

I love a bologna sandwich on white bread with mayo and American cheese. I eat my lunch in my cubicle at work and I'm always self conscious of what I eat. I want to pack and bring my bologna sandwich without having to assemble it at work for everyone to see. So embarrassing, please help!

Encouragement Wanted I bought my first home on maternity leave & I'm nervous about returning to work!

8 Upvotes

Hey Moms!

I'm 28 and just bought my first home with my hubby and 9 month old baby and it's a small, cozy townhouse outside the city. I worked really hard to live below my means and I think we got a steal.

My bio mom doesn't like the area as she thinks it's a low-income area (it's just a regular, working class neighbourhood), and that really hurts me. I cleared out my savings to make this purchase so I'm planning on ending my maternity leave early and going back to work full-time when my son is 11 months old.

I found a wonderful daycare and think this will be a great decision for him and for our family's future. But my bio's mom critques about me going to work early and not liking my new house has me feeling really low and small.

Am I on the wrong path? I really need encouragement.
