What gift do you get/make for a woman that has everything?

It's impossible!
For context it's my MIL, and she is quite well off, can buy whatever she needs as she needs it. It's so hard to buy anything for her!

Maybe something personalized?

Idk the occasion but maybe framed photos or a small photo album, maybe an art piece made by you or by the kids, or a paint-your-own ceramic item that she could use or display? When I'm gifting someone that can buy what they want I try to get something money can't buy and that will remind them of the people who love them.

Depending on babies age a painting they’ve done or footprint art.
Then maybe something she may not get herself? Like something on Groupon or wowcher. Like afternoon tea, spa day, visiting a sight, steam train etc.
or a necklace with a photo of you all on it (you can get ones that look normal and then will protect an image on the wall).
Anything she likes? Self care, sports, eating out, theatre, cinema?

Something sentimental or handmade, homemade coffee syrup in a cute little mason jar with a ribbon, a book, or if you really like her maybe plan a little outing for her and the grandkids like a picnic, tell her to dress kinda cute and take some pictures of her and the grandbabies. Or you could get her one of those “I want to hear your story” type of journals for her to answer questions in there and then it becomes a keepsake for the grandkids to always have, you know when she’s gone 🫠 maybe that’s kinda morbid tho nvm

Something sentimental like a photo book of her family. Or a family day out.

Dont buy anything make her something. Because money cant buy something that comes from the heart

A day out. For her (with or without you) surely she couldn’t have visited that one place you can find- restaurant/ experience etc

Or a day out with her grandchild (if you like her to go together lol)

🚨 EMERGENCY ANNOUNCEMENT 🚨

I need a friend. 😭🤣
I'm talking about random "guess what happened," unnecessary updates, dumb memes, and texting just because.

I'm in Texas, but distance is just a number. If you've been wanting a friend who'll match your energy, this is me shooting my shot. 🤠

He got caught cheating at 38 weeks

I’m around 38 weeks pregnant and my husband finishes work at 12 and wasn’t answering calls or texts and I needed him home to help with the kids as planned each Friday afternoon. I looked on find my iPhone and realised he had driven 40 min the wrong way to home and was in a car park outside an appartment block. I still didn’t suspect but every half hour I checked and still there. He was there 3 hours. Then I became suspicious. We’ve been together 7 years and have 2 other kids and baby due
I confronted him and he denied. Said he was talking to a guy friend about his struggles in life. I wasn’t sure so that night I went looking and found out he had been messaging (although all deleted) for about 2 weeks and the last 4 nights been staying up late doing 2 hours FaceTimes. I found out it’s a girl he met briefly at work. He later confessed that the time they met up he did a kiss to her but apparently wasn’t recieved well.
He says he has fallen out of love with me as we’ve lost our connection 7 years 3 kids etc. and this girl had been given him a portal to talk about things he doesn’t talk to me about.
He says it started off as a friend 2 weeks ago and a week later he has feelings but supposedly she doesn’t.

I later caught a purchase of a SIM card after he said he would never talk to her again. I found it before he had enacted it and he said he just wanted to talk to her again to say sorry bye etc. should I believe that?

Should I trust him ? Stay with him etc? 2 weeks of feelings and a kiss ? Should I believe it was entirely therapy based or entirely romantic etc

Need help

Hi I’m 19 I just had my baby 2 months ago and I’m waiting and I just got scammed out 400$ I’m looking for a job but no one’s hitting me back for a job .

Has anybody used free cash to try and get a bit of extra money and was it worth it?

I'd love to hear people's experience if you've got any.

ISO FRIENDS

My daughter is 9, and we both don’t have any friends. Looking for a mom friend with kids around the same age.

I regret being a mom

I’m in the absolute 2u2 trenches (20 month old and 2.5 month old). I am in the early stages of leaving my partner of almost 4 years. And I absolutely regret being a mom. And that’s really hard for me to admit because I have wanted to be one for so long. I hate admitting it out loud. But I absolutely regret it. I wish I could just give the girls full custody to their dad because I feel so tapped out. But there’s no way he’d be able to with his work schedule and be able to provide them a happy healthy childhood. But I just wanted to say out loud I regret being a mom. I hope I’m wrong later in life but right now I am in the trenches and I’m struggling and I have no one to talk to or ask for genuine help. My friends don’t have kids or are longing to have one. My OB doesn’t care I feel this way and is not doing any bloodwork to check my levels. He did this last time too when I was severely depressed with my first born. no psychiatrist who can give me mental pills to help this take my government insurance and I can’t pay out-of-pocket because I can hardly afford anything to even keep my girls alive and happy. I’m in therapy once a week because that’s all my schedule allows. I just feel so lost and alone. But at least I have my girl gang which is a toddler who speaks the language of nothing and nonsense so there’s a language barrier between us. And an infant who just cries almost constantly, and doesn’t even want to be around me.
