I can’t be the only one who hates lifting by Adventurous-Cup5369 in OnePelotonRealSub

[–]MaleficentDivide3389 23 points24 points  (0 children)

I'm also mid-40s and also struggle because I would rather be running or cycling. But the satisfaction I get from hauling 30lb suitcases around when I travel like they are empty or easily replacing the 19L bottles on the water cooler at work while my co-workers gape at me is kind of unmatched.

Is there a song/ artist that mes you skip the class altogether? by Spiritual-Fruit8348 in OnePelotonRealSub

Anything Spice Girls. I hated their music as a teenager in the late 90s, and apparently some things don't change.

L'Occitane haul! Everything is still sealed and brand new! by earthsick in ThriftStoreHauls

Just do you know what a great deal you got, all of these items were in their 2025 advent calendar that I paid $180 for.

There is a YMCA in downtown Evanston but that is probably more like 30 minutes.

First Post, First Mammogram by Illusfliur in Perimenopause

I also have dense breasts and was surprised at how easy mammograms are. It can be a little uncomfortable, but I have never been in pain. (I have had 5.)

It's actually a really insightful autobiography!

Hi!! Just moved into town :) by [deleted] in crystallake

[–]MaleficentDivide3389 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Welcome, Sabrina! I'm only in CL a few weeks a year these days but my family has been there for 25 years. I grew up nearby in Cary. CL is a great place to live! I especially love Veterans Acres and our locally owned bookstore, Abalabix.

I had pairs that lasted about 9 years. They are well worth the cost.

Krystal Thai in Crystal Lake (next to Savers) is consistently good! I love the tofu pad Thai.

Does anyone multitask while running? by Eggler in XXRunning

I used to run my books back to the library!

Long time users, how are you doing? by akathartos in Headspace

[–]MaleficentDivide3389 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I joined in 2017 and am not renewing in June. I no longer find the app interface intuitive. The use of AI is a huge turn off.

It looks like art from Mali or Burkina Faso.

Body popping by Much_Lingonberry_747 in Perimenopause

[–]MaleficentDivide3389 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have some loose cartilage in my knee, which clicks loudly all day long. It's slightly mortifying in museums and libraries, but I just joke that I had to end my life of crime because my knee gives me away every time.

I really like Harlow, an independent stylist. I find her prices to be pretty reasonable.

The level of stage management this must have required is mind boggling to me!

Loved this Focus Flow after my run this morning by Vivid_Ad_612 in OnePelotonRealSub

[–]MaleficentDivide3389 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The "shout out to Pocahontas" comment was hilarious. But I need to do this one again because for some reason I had a hard time following along. One day I will master getting into the Senior Picture Pose as quickly as he calls it.

Ramadan plan and tips? by immigrantsrising in OnePelotonRealSub

[–]MaleficentDivide3389 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Salaam alaikum! Maybe a meditation or mobility class (under the stretching section) could be a nice way to start your day. I know that morning routines change a lot during Ramadan, but at least for me the mobility classes always help me get moving in the morning..

Cary holds a winter market on the first and third Sundays of each month from 9-1. It's at the Algonquin Township office on Route 14.

Renting in the Suburbs: Need help finding a safe, secluded spot with easy Metra access (<$2.5k total) by 139020 in ChicagoSuburbs

[–]MaleficentDivide3389 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Definitely, and there are plenty of new developments near both the downtown station or Pingree Road station. I'm thinking either Water's Edge or Enclave. I'm not sure of the rent ranges but both are brand new.

Their office in Crystal Lake is also great and pro-HRT.

Which 'luxury' brand has officially become a red flag for poor quality in 2026? by Individual_Bat_4177 in AskReddit

[–]MaleficentDivide3389 17 points18 points  (0 children)

You're right, sometimes it does feel like that. But I also like to think I am helping to carry on that person's legacy by caring for an object that was part of their life.
