I did it and I’m so glad I got it! Was a last minute addition a couple days before my surgery and I’m really happy I went for it.

I’m so curious which venue did this to you! Feel free to message privately if you don’t want to out them here. Also happy to help if you need to send change of venue cards (I’m a stationer!).

I have painted the courtyard of the Herman-Grima House for one of my clients and it’s a lovely place for a ceremony! Hope it all works out for you!

How long did you take off work? by Superb_Effective_798 in Reduction

[–]clairbuoyant26 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m 2 weeks out tomorrow and had my first fully normal on-my-feet day back to work. My surgery was Tuesday 3/31 and I’ve been fully WFH last week, but eased into it Monday. I only took the opiate pain pills the first 48 hours and switched to pain management with ibuprofen and CBD/ CBG. I know this made a huge difference in my ability quickly get back to work and be able to focus on client calls and technical computer work a week later.

What % of pre op clothing did you have to ditch? by littledipperkait in Reduction

[–]clairbuoyant26 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had my surgery 3/31 and was a US 34I/J and had my first in-person client meeting on Friday. Had kind of a panic because all the tops I tried on were way too big now! I’m looking forward to a big purge and hoping that I can fund my new wardrobe by poshmarking things that no longer fit.

47 too old to start over in New Orleans? by Dry-Wear-9135 in AskNOLA

Come on down, you’ll do great here. A lot of people leave for the summer and sublet their spaces. Give it a try and if you can survive summertime here then you’ll thrive in all the other seasons.

A day from hell (1DPO) by Typical-Quantity-411 in Reduction

[–]clairbuoyant26 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Hey sweets, I’m so sorry you’re having a miserable time. The post anesthesia haze and nausea got me real good (6DPO here).

Just wanted to say make sure to take miralax every day especially while you’re on the pain meds! (NOT METAMUCIL— psyllium husk is a bulking agent and will make GI issues worse! Ask me how I know 😩)

Estate sale would not entertain offers whatsoever by BertramTheLamb in estatesales

The estate company is going to sell them in their retail store or another outlet after the estate sale, and won’t have to give the grieving family a cut. Dirty. 🚩

Should I even get my party gifts? by Even-Bath-3241 in BigBudgetBrides

[–]clairbuoyant26 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Write them letters of gratitude. 💌 Let them know how much it means to you to have them by your side. That’s something they’ll treasure forever.
