Wtf kind of answer is this? Has anyone taken their rep p9s to a cobbler to get the leather assessed? Idk why even top sellers say this. I mean, how do they have access (supposedly) to the original brands authentic leather if they can’t get the authentic bags from the Chinese factories that ship to the euro warehouses.

Can anyone just explain this delulu?

Hello.

I’m currently contemplating dropping my kids from Kumon. My oldest is entering 3rd grade in the fall and she’s ahead in math. I forget what level, however, I don’t think she truly understands multiplication because the concept isn’t enforced as much as the memorization is.

Personally, I didn’t do Kumon when I was little. My dad grabbed a pencil and paper and taught me and I understood the pattern in multiplication and just got really fast at multiplying.

My kids are competitive athletes. They will be going to extracurriculars 3-4 days out of the week.

I’m at a point where Kumon seems to just be getting in the way. And my oldest cries when she has to go.

It wasn’t like this before. She was okay with it at first.

We recently put it on hold for the month and it’s been so nice! I’ve been teaching her concept at home and she’s kind of had to remember some things that Kumon doesn’t focus on, such as, “6hundreds, 40 tens, and 8 ones is greater than…” and she has 4 options multiple choice to figure it out. And I feel that’s better than constant multiplication.

As for reading, she’s not a strong speller. Her current Kumon level focuses on comprehension, but she can’t spell so great on her own.

I feel like dropping because neither classes are offering what she really needs help in.

Any advice?

o around Mother’s Day, my husband showed me his teaticles were red and swollen. 2 days prior, he had said his lower abdomen hurt all the way warped around his lower back. I thought he was just gassy. He made it seem as if it wasn’t a big deal.

When he finally showed me, I was at a loss and told him to go to ER. He had a UTI. He got some antiobiotics. A week later when he finished them, he felt better. But a week after finishing them, the symptoms came back. He went to a local clinic. They prescribed him some antiobiotics that only made him feel worse. By Friday of that week, he was taken off those 2nd antiobiotics and given 30 day antibiotics.

Since then, he’s gotten a CT scan that just showed a cyst in his liver. He was told that it’s probably nothing as it’s very common, but to be sure, to get an MRI. He has not gone in for an MRI. It’s been 2 weeks, and now he’s feeling this tube feeling behind his testicles. And his back pain is back.

We’re feeling discouraged because this has been going on for over a month. He was feeling better up until yesterday, when this started up again.

Can any male on here give any experience if you’ve had a UTI with similar experience?

We’re feeling so discouraged. We are busy with 3 little kids. He’s a business owner and it’s been rough.

TIA

Hello everyone,

I joined this subreddit to see if I can help my husband. He is 39, so not her 40, but regardless, I hope someone can help.

A few weeks ago, before Mother’s Day, my husband started getting pain that wrapped around his lower body. I’m talking lower abdomen and lower back. I didn’t know what to think and thought it was trapped air. Idk. My husband didn’t make a big deal so I thought it was stomach issues.

Then he showed me his genitals. They were swollen and red. I had him go to the ER. Tests were made. He had bacteria in his urine. It was a UTI. They scanned his testicles. He was okay. They did blood work. Nothing.

Just the UTI.

He finished the antibiotics 1 week ago. Today, he said he’s had the lower back pain come back again. It’s a dull pain. He went to the doctor again. They did more scans: pancreas, kidneys, liver, and some other organ he forgot. Urine was clean this time. The tests results should be received in a few days. He was given stronger antibiotics in case anything had spread elsewhere to finish while we wait for test results to come back.

He had a client tell him he (the client) had a UTI once, but it was because of testicular cancer. 😭 client is fine, but what the client was trying to say was that the UTI was what got him diagnosed.

Has anyone experienced a UTI with these symptoms or pain wrapping around lower body? Was it anything other than a UTI?

Any response is much appreciated. Thank you in advance.

Hello everyone!

I saw someone share their stack and I asked for details of seller via dm. She dm’d me and I reached out to the seller, the one named above on the subject line.

I got a VCA and a JUC. Each was $140!! I am new to this so I expected sterling silver with white gold plating, and that’s what I was told I’d get. Pictures came in and it all looked gorgeous.

But it’s been weeks now and I have no info on tracking. I’ve asked a couple times, and she’s told me to “please wait.”

One thing though is that when I paid it was via PP F & F. I was nervous about this. And for some reason, the receipt said funds were sent and she was credited, but she wouldn’t have access till 10/2026 👀

That was when a little red flag went up, but I only saw it after the fact I sent payment.

Now I don’t know what’s happening. Last real back-and-forth chat was 5/5.

Should I be worried? I’ve politely asked about tracking to no avail of any proof.

Thank you in advance

Hi!

My husband and I have 3 kids. Our youngest fest is now 1. Our 2 girls are 4 & 7.

My SIL told us to go just the 2 of us first. She and her husband don’t have kids. Therefore, Idk if I should follow her advice. Haha.

If we take our kids, she said it would a lot of walking for them.

I’m really just trying to figure out if I should change destinations so we take kids.

Than you in advance anyone who replies 🤗

Hi everyone. I’m hoping I can get help from someone who may have experienced this.

I bought tickets to a concert a while back through stub hub. Everything was fine. I finally accepted the tickets about a week or so after I purchased when I got the email which was about a month ago. when I accepted the tickets, they never loaded onto my ticketmaster account. Ticketmaster does not have any info on my tickets.

Since then, I’ve called maybe 10 times to stub hub. They have sent me the email to accept tickets each time and again, when I click, Ticketmaster shows error message that the email I’m using for both websites is not recognizable. But I only have the one email for both accounts.

Stub hub is now telling me that if I accepted the tickets I will not get a refund either. But the thing is when I have tried to accept the tickets as I originally had, i don’t get anything via Ticketmaster other than that message that the email is not correct. But some other agent had told me that I had buyer protection, so I would get a refund. When I asked for credentials, I was told they could not provide that info to me.

This is so frustrating. I won’t go to the concert and I won’t get my money back. Seriously, wtf.

Hello. My husband and I are 1st generation Americans who come from immigrant parents. We live in California.

We have built everything we have through our own hard work and decided to protect it with a trust.

As we’re finalizing the binder meeting soon, everything is in order, but I don’t know what to put in the personal property memorandum. Let me explain.

The things I own are just that—things. I do own collectible pieces, I have my wedding gown, my wedding ring, and I have 2 daughters. I put their baby clothes in this memorandum because I saved 10 pieces from each child. And I may just make a stuffed teddy bear out of their clothes or a quilt. I also have some sentimental watches that don’t necessarily have value otherwise. They are just part of my story: my first job, my first employer, my high school graduation gift. You get the point.

Other than my collectibles, their baby clothes, my sentimental pieces, jewelry heirlooms pieces, and my wedding gown and ring, I’ve “invested” in luxury goods ranging from LV, Chanel, Dior, VCA, and so on.

Since I have 2 daughters, how would I split those items. When I look at them and look at the blank line in the memorandum, I don’t know if to put them of have them sell it in an estate sale. I love each handbag and jewelry piece I have because I have curated everything intentionally. But my biggest issue is splitting it between them both.

When I think about it, I think, “it’s just stuff.” But then when I think about it again, it’s expensive stuff. And when I think about it again again, I think they can spend their own money on that same stuff if they want. Haha it shouldn’t be this deep.

And I am very grateful for such 1st world problems, but really, what’s normally recommended. I feel so silly asking this.
