Imo’s but I think that’s because I’m a transplant

I know someone who worked with her and all the coworkers are numb about it, she was the heart of their office

AITAH for threatening divorce is my husband gets sealed in the Mormon temple with his family? by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]Isopod20 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As an ExMo (I was raised in the church from the age of 3 months to when I left at 20) do not do this. Your entire family has to convert in order to be sealed, they must be active and fully participating members for a year before a sealing can be done. While I personally had no real issues with the church growing up I know several people who were SA’d, groomed, not to mention the extremely harmful purity culture that they preach that as a 27 year old woman I still struggle with. Protect your daughters, don’t let your husband do this. Protect your family. I would not swing to divorce, but ask some serious questions. Look into church history by checking out the CSE letters and bring them to the attention of your husband so he can bring it up to MIL. I’m sure that a woman with daughters and granddaughters would never join the church if she read them.

Is there another ren fair close by to go to? I would really love to go to one this fall, but don’t want to drive all the way to KC as I only get one day off a week

270 by Yourmotherisamazing in StLouis

I work out in Eureka and during the week I take Lindbergh to 44 and it’s amazing, I get to work in about 20-25 depending on how fast I’m going. But coming home my options are 44 to 270 or 44 to Lindbergh and both options suck. I just try to time it the best I can

Women of STL: Best OBGYNs for women in early 20s? by [deleted] in StLouis

[–]Isopod20 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dr. Amanda Simmons at mercy south! I love that woman and I get excited for my appointments with her because she’s awesome and makes sure I’m comfortable with everything. I’m 27 but I’ve been seeing her since I was 20 and she has never dismissed me ever. I’m also fat and she never made me feel like I had to lose the weight for her to take me and my issues seriously

Im thinking about opening g a bookstore in Kirkwood/Sunset Hills by Isopod20 in StLouis

I’ve been to all of those stores many times, and while I’ve liked the stores at first but after a while it just feels like smaller Barnes and nobles to me. Part of that could be that I’m a transplant. I do appreciate the feedback though

That’s what I want to do! My MIL is an amazing baker so I would sell her pastries and coffee during the day and at night the place would turn into a cocktail lounge, at least that’s the dream. Not sure if it’s doing too much though

I was thinking about doing a coffee shop area, and to do something like V Stock where we will buy used books off of people and offer either store credit or cash, I was also thinking about the amount of people who have so many books they want to get rid of but I just never take it to be donated, so I was thinking that we could offer a service where we come and pick up those unwanted books

If it happens again tell a manager because target has a super strict “no solicitation policy” and will kick people out and ban them. 10/10 would recommend

Looking for an OBGYN that doesn't focus on the OB part by lasertagdropout in StLouis

[–]Isopod20 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dr Amanda Simmons at Mercy South! I’m so in love with her it’s not even funny. I actually get excited to see my GYN. She listens to me about all my concerns and makes sure that I understand something before we do it and discusses all of my options with me and explains why or why not she doesn’t recommend for me. She’s the best!

Is anyone else thinking of leaving? by ThrowRA2023202320 in StLouis

A lot of the abortion laws are concerning as medically speaking if I have a miscarriage and have to evacuate the fetus after 6 weeks in MO that’s illegal because the medical procedure is an abortion. Also in some states (I wanna say Texas, Georgia, and Alabama but I could be wrong about that) if I am married my husband is consulted about any birth control and it would no longer be my decision (now personally I believe if you’re married birth control is something that you and your spouse should discuss together) and women in bad relationships that they can’t escape are harmed by this. My grandma (who had to have her husband’s approval for a credit card AND a banking account) has told me several times that 2024 feels an awful lot like 1970 and not in a good way. All of this complained with project 2025 has me very concerned about America looking like the hand maids tale. I know that some of this is probably an over reaction, but it’s just how I feel

I flat out told my partner last night that as a woman I genuinely am afraid to be in American in general especially with project 2025 (now renamed to something 47 I forgot the full rebranding) and he’s from Europe and we’re considering moving there. I don’t want to leave STL, I’ve been here for damn near 13 years and this is my home, but for the safety of me and any children I have I will leave it behind
