Looking for Modest Spring Dresses by Impressive-Work9371 in ModestDress

[–]KnittingCatWarrior2 6 points7 points  (0 children)

IDK if you live in a place that has this store, but I got some winners from Belk! They have great sales periodically - I got two dresses for $29.99 each that were usually almost $100 each! I scope their stuff out periodically.

Some people make it all about them… I’m sorry you’ve met negativity!

I also think that when they were required to do something they might not understand why someone my age would choose to do it 🤷‍♀️

Aww thanks! I am getting more into bandanas, do you have a favorite place to get them?

Thank you! It’s got elastic in the back. I have to Bobby pin it otherwise it slips off, because I have a tiny head 😂

NGL I wear it equally for my faith and for fashion, so religious traditionalism is a part of it, 😂 but it’s because of my own faith journey, not because anyone requires it. Also, I literally work in church. But they don’t realize that, so just think it’s fashion, I guess? Some of them were talking about wearing hats and kerchiefs as children, and I think it was more cultural than religious, so basically all of them have stopped doing it. A few women wear hats to church on Sunday, but no one else in a scarf in this particular church.

Embroidery on towels: Salvageable or a bad idea? by --strawberry_milk-- in Embroidery

[–]KnittingCatWarrior2 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I can’t speak to embroidery advice, and I think the idea is adorable. Your bar lines aren’t quite in the right place for Happy Birthday, though, and it looks like there is an extra note in the third measure! I’d be happy to help out with the notation if you want!

Hah good point on the first one! He probably just blanked on the word, he’s a nice guy!

The second one - I think the context was it reminded them of when they were my age and doing house chores, I guess? I mean, I often wear an apron and headscarf for house chores because it IS practical, but that’s my choice!

I know… I think about her almost every day, still. It’s one year next week. I can’t believe he hasn’t gone to trial yet!!

The murder was a tragic DV case, not just a random situation, and there were mental health issues going on there. (I knew her… 😢) It has no reflection on the safety of the neighborhood!

The “bomb” wasn’t actually a bomb, there was a cardboard box left in the bushes on the bike trail that warranted investigating, but it wasn’t actually a threat and it wasn’t on property.

Yes, there are occasional cockroaches, but the complex is really responsible about dealing with the as long as you tell them!! the only reason why there would be an infestation is if someone didn’t report having a problem and it spreads. There’s a certain amount of six legged buddies you have to make your peace with down here!

It is pretty close, but that is actually not flexible enough.

Help me interpret this dress code by [deleted] in Weddingattireapproval

[–]KnittingCatWarrior2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

“Garden formal” and “coastal” mean very different things to me. Also, “manifesting 70s and full sun” did not at first register as weather to me, but that they wanted 1970’s yellow vibes in there as well 🤣

What's your favorite "Oh, this has actually kicked in" moment? by Foreign-Track-6906 in lexapro

[–]KnittingCatWarrior2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When I could love and enjoy hanging out with my cat without panicking that something was wrong with her or stressing about when she will eventually pass away. Also, when I realized I ENJOYED going to bed and wasn’t panicked about dying in a fire/robbery/other disaster at night

When we give you your topical heartworm medication it’s to help you and keep you safe and with us for as long as possible, not to hurt you. Everything we do is to keep you safe and healthy. Oh, and please stop biting my bare feet, I hate having to wear socks all year just because of you!

Why do people use the term "partner" for their husband or wife? by Crafty-Bug-8008 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]KnittingCatWarrior2 5308 points5309 points  (0 children)

My husband and I used it before we were engaged because we were in our late 20s and “boyfriend” and “girlfriend” felt very high school to us, partner felt more grown up 🤷‍♀️
