  1. I'm guessing sleepwalking? My daughter did this regularly when she was little. I don't know if this was the right approach, but I'd always let her talk for however long it took(usually less than 5 minutes) and then say "Ok baby, let's go back to bed." Most of the time she'd just turn right around and head to her room on her own, a few times I had to carry her back. But she'd get in bed, get her bunny she slept with, and go right back to sleep. She'll be 13 in a couple of months and there really hadn't been any issues for a couple of years now. Until last week. She came out to the living room about 12:30 in the morning saying she was mad because she needed to reset her alarm clock. I had her sit down and finish telling me what the problem was and told her I thought it would be ok. Normally she remembers nothing about these episodes, but the next day I started to ask her about it and she immediately said "Did I come out to the living room last night? Talking about my alarm clock?" She actually remembered most of the conversation. Hopefully what your child goes through will be a similar experience. The only real fear we ever had was stairs. Our daughter started sleepwalking at around age 2, when we still lived in a townhouse style apartment with the bedrooms upstairs. We put a baby gate at the top of the stairs as a precaution(which damn near killed me a couple of times nearly tripping over it) and luckily never had any accidents. This is a girl who is clumsy by nature and takes poor angles when walking and might bump into a door frame, corner of a countertop, a chair etc, but she always navigated walking in the dark without any issues when sleepwalking. Maybe it will be an isolated incident, it always seemed to happen most often if our daughter was over tired, so maybe be on a bit of alert on nights where you feel your kid is more tired than normal? I hope everything works out fine. If your experience works out anything like ours, you'll be able to laugh about some of the goofy things your child says, like the time my daughter came out and proclaimed "I'm here to help with the cows!". Edit: Now I realize I totally misread " bluuuhhhipoiajpoijhpgoiewrsdfjdnsbnwssdjpgweirupoyiwpjhwe" as gibberish, not puking. My bad, carry on.
  2. It's been known for a couple of months that he was going to retire, he just waited until after June 1st to help the Niners cap situation.
  3. Congratulations to your daughter, that is awesome!
  4. Unless I'm mistaken, the A's only asked the city of Oakland for $855 million in infrastructure improvements for the area. The $12 billion figure is what the A's are saying they'll invest between building the stadium and surrounding area(housing, shopping, restaurants, etc.), though the term sheet only requires the stadium to be built.
  5. The Indianapolis PBS station put out a documentary on Slick Leonard a few years back, in case anyone is interested.
  6. Happy Birthday @The Natural! I know you're looking forward to UFC and AEW this weekend so I hope both shows exceed your expectations! Have a great weekend my friend!
  7. I have $30 waiting for the taking if they would just put Black Widow on Disney+. We can have a pizza delivered and watch in comfort at home and probably spend less for pizza and the movie than three tickets and hitting the concession stand.
  8. Thanks for posting those @JonnyLaw! I just ordered Agatha/Agnes, The Vision, and the not pictured Monica Rambeau for my daughter for Easter.
  9. Roses are red The Texans are dolts It's time for JJ To join the Colts
  10. Roses are red Nothing would be finer Than JJ Watt Becoming a 49er
  11. Can someone PM with details on how to get this set? A buddy of mine grew up on AWA and is getting divorced and this seems like it would make a good house warming gift for his new place.
  12. I'd like to know where this blocking has been all season. Mullens isn't very good, but he wasn't getting much time at all to try and throw the ball. Pass rush has been better this week it seems as well, not sure where that came from either.
  13. Just my wife, daughter and I this year instead of the 25-30 person standard family get together we have with my mom's family. Normally my wife takes the week of Thanksgiving off, but this year she couldn't. Since she has to work through Wednesday, we're kind of cheating and ordering two family meals from Cracker Barrel to pickup Wednesday and reheat on Thursday--country fried turkey with two sides of dumplings and meatloaf with two sides of fried apples. I'm making my apple, sausage and cornbread dressing along with green bean casserole, mashed potatoes, and cranberry relish. We've got a Patti LaBelle sweet potato pie and tiramisu for dessert. It's going to be different this year for sure.
  14. Can't say as I blame him, Reid was excellent last year and should have been signed by someone in the offseason.
  15. Thanks @The Natural, my daughter really enjoyed this match as she's a big fan of both Rhea Ripley and Ember Moon.
  16. I'm so sorry to hear this my friend. My deepest condolences to you and your family.

    2020 NFL Week 1

    Is face guarding not a thing any more? Peterson had his back to the ball and was blocking Bourne's ability to see on the throw to the end zone, at least I thought it looked that way. Not having Deebo's big play ability to account for really hurt today, Kittle getting banged up early on didn't help matters either.
  18. Tell me more about this keto deep dish pizza.
  19. Found out today that as an Xfinity customer that subscribes to HBO I get free membership to HBOMax. Thankfully my wife actually read that e-mail from Xfinity today instead of deleting it like she does most of them. Thought I'd pass it along in case anyone else was unaware or paying for a membership that is unnecessary.
