We go to the dentist every 6 months and the dentist always gives us brand new toothbrushes. My wife and kids leave their little bag from the dentist in the car or on the counter for months. I eventually pick them up and put them in the drawer near my sink. There must be 50 tooth brushes in there. I've never seen my wife buy new ones and non of them have ever asked for a new toothbrush even though, every time I go in that drawer, I mention to them that they need to be swapping out their toothbrushes and to get on from the drawer.

Of course, they have my teeth and mouth chemistry so they've never had a cavity even though they probably rarely brush their teeth. My wife skips a day brushing and she gets a cavity.

Super easy. Step 1) You’re there for an hour, two at the very most. Period. Step 2) Take out only what you can carry in a single bag/tote; if it’s a large family, two totes. Most of the garbage you think you need you really do not. The beach isn’t a place you want to spend half a day at for the obvious reasons.

Taking a gander at a tide chart would have saved y’all some heartache. I’ve lived near the coast for a lot of years and something I’ve never understood is why people pack up everything and the kitchen sink to go to the beach for an hour, two at the most.

Apply sunscreen at the car. Have each kid carry their own towel and toy. Mom and dad carry an umbrella, their own towels, and a jug of water. Done. Makes it far less of a hassle and you can easily make multiple trips back out in a day. Mid morning and late afternoon.

Bruh you got a problem. You shouldn't need to do this in a relationship. Perhaps she isn't the girl for you or you need to be in an open relationship. Or consider being treated for sex addiction if it's something you physically cannot control. Instead of beating yourself up for being an idiot, try to understand the underlying reason for why you did what you did. You'll just repeat the same mistakes again if you don't.

For real. I never it much thought for rent and such since I've been blessed with a good job but God damn i would be beside myself if I transferred it wrong.

The kicker is that when the bank screws it up, they can sue your ass if you spend any of the money.
