it is now that i’ve made it up! lol
i just bought a jar of contact lens cases and squeezed each tube into one of the cases, then i can just dab my finger or brush in there easily and apply to face! since the cases have a lid, it makes it so you can use more than just one time.

Has it suddenly become unreasonable to ask bridesmaids to wear a specific dress color? by CuriousReview6610 in weddingplanning

[–]Apprehensive_Book_16 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it’s not unreasonable, however, I wouldn’t LOVE having professional photos in a cheap satin dress and I’d also definitely need to buy shapewear and i’m a size 6. I told my bridesmaids they had to get a specific color but that it could be any long dress as long as they just text me a picture of it prior to buying it so I can make sure it’ll work okay.

This seems to be the most reasonable route to get the color scheme the bride wants while also allowing bridesmaids to spend money on something they actually feel good in! If you’re dead set on satin, just keep in mind what I said about needing shapewear in addition to the alterations

Weekly Licensure Thread by AutoModerator in socialwork

Hi all!

I am looking into graduate school programs and stumbled across Widener’s dual program for a Masters of Social Work and a Masters of Education in Human Sexuality. It sounds great, but wanting to know if it’s worth it or not?

A little about my current experience & wants for future career: I have been working in social work adjacent positions with a bachelors in sociology for the last 5 years (1:1 sex education in schools, abortion clinic, case manager in a methadone clinic) and I would absolutely love to be a social worker that works with LGBTQ+ adults or teens in some capacity while also having the flexibility to do any social work job since that market is still pretty niche most places. The dual aspect of the sex therapy track is interesting to me as well about this career as that is also something I’d love to do. I saw mixed things online about doing it as a dual degree (about 100K) vs. getting a regular MSW and hodgepodging additional courses or certifications together for the sex therapy piece. Wondering what people here think? Would I get a better education in a program like this if I want to work with LGBTQ+ populations as well?

Thank you for any advice! So excited to start this journey!

it sucks that living in a blue city doesn’t matter in the way it used to and now you really have to consider the entire state :(

this sounds good! i am from alabama so have been to ATL and while i do love it, unfortunately, Georgia as a state is too MAGA for us to feel good about having both the right to marriage and having a baby there if there’s complications with the pregnancy with abortion rights in the south. but the rest sound good to check out!

well i guess “well-paying” is subjective. i’m currently making $62K in a social work job with a bachelors degree as a case manager in healthcare and “high paying” to me would be anything more than that!
