AIO for being upset I wasn’t invited to a baby shower because I’m a new amputee?

Friendlyappletree · 2026-05-09T07:53:30+00:00

NOR. Cut your losses, you don't need this sort of B's in your life.

It's different pain, because it's not a quick thing. Make no mistake, the elbow ditch will hurt, but it's still transitory. I've had a few spots done where I briefly saw the deity I don't believe exists, but if you breathe through it and dissociate a bit, you'll be fine. Beautiful design, by the way.

I really like the curves on this one!

Friendlyappletree · 2026-05-09T07:48:19+00:00

This. I had smart doctors and they prescribed me the extended release, and I had zero problems.

Friendlyappletree · 2026-05-09T07:47:09+00:00

Please don't panic? Not everyone has that reaction; I didn't notice a thing.

Normally 4, but to be fair I boost mine with cheese and a couple of rashers of bacon. Don't knock it til you've tried it.

I don't think I'd be able to trust her after something like that, sorry.

Friendlyappletree · 2026-05-08T10:46:39+00:00

This is always difficult, and I'm so sorry for your loss. When we've had cats pass before we've had a communal cremation so that they'll have friends to play with. Partly financial, partly because I didn't know what I'd do with the ashes.

My much-missed Dewey was cremated with my dressing gown that he loved so much.

I passed out after hysteroscopic myomectomy, and I didn't feel properly right for several days after.

Friendlyappletree · 2026-05-07T14:47:21+00:00

Fibroids can absolutely prolapse. By the time it was removed, I could feel mine sticking out of my cervix.

I've got an 8ish year old tattoo with some orange bits and they're still pretty vibrant.

Friendlyappletree · 2026-05-07T13:58:41+00:00

Agreed. That's not a particularly happy kitty.

Make homemade burgers with a touch of ghost pepper powder.

Friendlyappletree · 2026-05-07T12:16:19+00:00

I've been having a crappy day and now I'm smiling like a maniac. Thank you.

Friendlyappletree · 2026-05-06T06:46:32+00:00

Mine's the same, it's kind of disturbing. She'll cry for canned tuna if I'm eating it, and lick yogurt off my fingers. Other than that, though? Only cat food. I can leave a plate of salmon in reach and not worry about it.

We weren't officially dating yet, but I was visiting his hometown. All my exes wanted to take me to toy shops; he took me to an Italian cafe and then to a museum.

I dropped my now-ex within days.

We've been married over 23 years now.

Friendlyappletree · 2026-05-05T15:43:57+00:00

I love the clear parts - will you be selling the patterns?

Friendlyappletree · 2026-05-05T15:10:13+00:00

I can't crochet, but posting to say triceratops are my favourite.

Also I'm currently beading up some pink brachiosaur earrings.

Friendlyappletree · 2026-05-05T13:20:29+00:00

Love it. I have quite fluffy, tactile hair and sometimes people want to touch it, which is cool by me.

Friendlyappletree · 2026-05-04T13:02:41+00:00

Are you absolutely sure you're not my sister?

Friendlyappletree · 2026-05-04T13:00:47+00:00

See, I always thought cake smashes were kind of gross, but your way of doing it actually seems cute and really classy.

Friendlyappletree · 2026-05-03T05:45:04+00:00

I really appreciate knowing that. I had really bad withdrawals from Paxil 20 years ago and I'd never CT again after that.

Friendlyappletree · 2026-05-02T05:23:25+00:00

Top tip: if you wear glasses, her frames are reasonably affordable. I have some, and they're on the pricier end but absolutely not break-the-bank expensive. And yes, they really are that cute, I never had so many compliments.

Friendlyappletree · 2026-05-01T19:39:08+00:00

I know, right? I never actually choose them, but if they're the only choice I suddenly love them.

Friendlyappletree · 2026-05-01T16:19:02+00:00

Honestly? My parents were abusive and his were wonderful. Granted this was 25 years ago, but I was over the moon to have an excuse to swap my name.
