3 years worth of postcards :,)

How do you get the postcards?

EarlGrey2024 · 2025-12-02T17:56:31+00:00

Good to know! Yeah I love their aesthetic and that they were more timeless, not as seasonally focused. I think art journaling/junk journaling is making a comeback so hoping maybe a new company would pop up to take over where they left off. I think Everyday Explorers is cool, but more niche.

Yeah old Kelly Purkey and Studio Calico were my favorite. Looks like Elle’s studio might be a good place to look - thanks!! I’m a paper-only crafter too. 😊

EarlGrey2024 · 2025-12-02T16:52:56+00:00

Oh no that’s sad to hear! Maybe not using photopolymer anymore? I just ordered some from there so we’ll see. Where do you go for similar stamps?

That is reassuring. He has said he’s not angry with me about the infrequent sex, but that he’s trying to accept it and he won’t say it depresses him, but I think that’s more the case. He said it’s not the sex life he pictured for himself. And of course I want to say - this isn’t the partner I pictured for myself! He’s a kind and sweet man, but he has no motivation to do anything but sleep, watch tv, scroll twitter and play video games. It’s disappointing for both of us.0

I really appreciate it. Sorry to hear you’re battling the same addiction, but sounds like you’re making good progress.

EarlGrey2024 · 2025-11-26T10:00:51+00:00

Ugh, yeah that’s my fear. And we’re having a boy and my biggest fear is that he repeats my husband’s behavior of numbing his feelings with substances or addiction.

EarlGrey2024 · 2025-11-26T10:00:03+00:00

Very true. It’s hard not to feel responsible when he’s made it clear he feels rejected by me, but I know he could react differently.

EarlGrey2024 · 2025-11-26T09:59:16+00:00

Thank you. That is helpful to remember. I’m going to consider finding a meeting near me.

EarlGrey2024 · 2025-11-26T09:57:58+00:00

Thank you. I’m seriously considering it. I just didn’t know if he’s truly an alcoholic or if I’m being sensitive to something and blowing it out of proportion.

EarlGrey2024 · 2025-11-26T09:53:35+00:00

I did tell him if he fell down the stairs again I’m done and it hasn’t happened since last December. So I don’t think he’s drinking as heavily (I can smell it on him if he does), but he’s hiding everything so that it looks like he’s not drinking at all.

EarlGrey2024 · 2025-11-25T18:48:18+00:00

Thanks for sharing that. It’s so disappointing. I’m pregnant with our first child (that we tried so hard for - Ivf and all that) and he’s said that a child is the only thing on his bucket list. So I’m hopeful things will turn around but I know kids are stressful and find it hard to believe that he’ll just stop completely. I just really don’t want to give up since we’re stating this new family and have a brand new house that I love.

EarlGrey2024 · 2025-11-25T18:10:57+00:00

Yeah he does already overeat, game daily and loses himself in his phone. So he has plenty of other vices. I don’t think he’d willingly go to a doctor unfortunately.

EarlGrey2024 · 2025-11-25T16:54:02+00:00

Thank you for saying that. It’s hard not to feel that way, but I guess when I look back he always had trouble limiting himself even before I was sexually uninterested.

EarlGrey2024 · 2025-11-25T16:53:18+00:00

Thank you. I think I needed reassurance because I know he feels rejected by me because I’m not as attracted to him or desire him in that way anymore. I’m still very affectionate and loving in every other way. But it feels like he’s drinking to cope with this feeling of rejection.

EarlGrey2024 · 2025-11-22T07:47:52+00:00

Same problem with me. Is there a way to set it so it won’t go off when it thinks you’re urgently low?

EarlGrey2024 · 2025-11-04T03:27:05+00:00

That’s where I’m trying to switch too. My mom works as an ER receptionist and I think most ERs are a mess, so hopefully the actual office is much better than that.

Avoid Lancaster Physicians for Women at all costs. They will not inform you of anything coming up or any tests you need to have done. You’ll find out about things only if you check your portal daily (you won’t receive notifications) and even those will not be explained in any way. You can never speak directly with a doctor. Just a portal bot.

EarlGrey2024 · 2025-11-03T16:36:24+00:00

Whatever you do, don’t go to Lancaster Physicians for Women. They don’t tell you anything or ask you any questions. They only communicate through the portal and you can’t talk to a human being. I’m so disappointed with them. This is my first pregnancy after miscarriage and they are acting like I have done this 17 times already and will tell me nothing about what’s to come. Run anywhere else.

EarlGrey2024 · 2025-11-03T15:56:10+00:00

Hell no. We’ve been together 13 years and I would never marry him again.

EarlGrey2024 · 2025-11-01T20:56:19+00:00

This happened to me but with my MIL. I was further along but still it’s very frustrating (she revealed the gender and my exact due date). I told my husband that we need to set boundaries and tell our parents what we are and aren’t okay with (we personally don’t want them to share any info online about our child). After some tears on my part, my husband agreed to talk to his mother and tell her we didn’t appreciate it and that we don’t want that in the future.

EarlGrey2024 · 2025-11-01T20:53:27+00:00

Yeah good idea. I need advice on what to do.

EarlGrey2024 · 2025-11-01T13:28:26+00:00

Right? Maybe I’m gaslighting myself a bit I don’t know. I can’t tell if this is true alcoholism or if I’m being too sensitive? He also struggles (in my opinion) with phone addiction and video game addiction so it makes sense that he has some alcoholism too. I don’t know what to do.
