My next door neighbour has taken up a habit of burning things in a barrel in his backyard. He's done me a few favours in the past so I don't really wanna have a pop at him... but the fumes are getting into my house all the time. They give me a headache so god knows about how it's effecting my poor girlie 😓 I wouldn't mind if it was the odd time but it's becoming daily 😓
My dad told me that the smell was more of a burning copper smell. My boyfriend thinks it's burning plastic. It tends to be thick black smoke that pierces through the house. I will get it seen too. I wouldn't mind if I lived alone but not with a baby in here x
If you guys are on good terms, why not just mention it politely first.
That's what I'd do anyway before reporting to the landlord or council. Otherwise it can end up in arguments. X
He's a gypo. Bit of a nutcase tbh. My boyfriend did ask him to let us know if he's burning so we can close the windows. He doesn't let us know but it wouldn't make a difference, still gets in. I'll mention it to him but there's isn't really a middle ground. He's gunna wanna burn stuff every day and I want it minimalised to like once a week. It's toxic x
@clarelushx oh well if that the case then definetly report it. Like you say there's no middle ground. You can't have your baby smelling toxic crap either xx
Report it to your landlord or council. Your not allowed to have fires until past 7pm x
My landlords popping round next week for an inspection. I'll mention it to him then see what he can do x
@clarelushx, if it’s a private landlord the best thing you can do is contact your local council x
Yesterday I went out with my boyfriend went to watch a movie, me and him don't live together yet. but point is yesterday when he was dropping me off his like sleep over at my house witch the mom and dad lives. I said no,
his response was why is everyone deciding or making choices for you and their going to do the same with the baby, when I know that's not true. what he thinks is that my mom tells me not to sleep over. So he left all mad. and I felt in my heart that he went on and cheated on me...
Transgender children
So I just learned that in my kids school district (my kids aren't in school yet my oldest will be starting kindergarten next September) there are twin boys who identify as girls. They are 5 years old. What's your opinions on this matter given they are 5!!! I don't believe that at that age they really understand the whole thing. So the entire school had to take a course on how to handle transgender children. For example they can't say girls go this or boys do that. What are...
Science!
My friend posted this on facebook last night and said her kids were asleep within minutes. It's a song that scientists created to help people fall asleep. I was skeptical but I thought what the hay, I'll try it out. I didn't bank on Dh falling asleep, but both him and lo were asleep by minute 2. And lo slept six straight hours. ?
Starting TWW. Anyone else?
I had a stillborn daughter at 38 weeks this passed Nov. This is my second month ttc. (Last month we only tried for like two weeks though). My last and only pregnancy, I got pregnant the first month of ttc so I hope it's quick this time again.
What's he burning? Certain things shouldn't be burnt and a normal wood fire wouldn't smell toxic, I'd ask him to stop and if he doesn't I'd go to environmental health x
