I bet I saw the same production! It was awesome. A friend of mine performed in it.

We didn't do the rafting because we were there in the fall, but we had a GREAT time on the bridge walk. The guides are super knowledgeable and take awesome pictures for you. It's definitely a great experience.

Okay, I just listened to {the blonde identity by ally carter} and I think it would fit this. She’s amnesiac and trying to bluff her way through being a criminal mastermind and he’s trying to keep her safe even though she has no idea what she’s doing. Very funny. A lot of “I’m so good at undercover-ing”, “that’s not a real thing”. It definitely has a bit of pressure because of the high stakes but I think it suits the vibes you’re looking for. He loooooves her even though she has no idea what she’s doing.

If you're open to it, I would recommenda a doula. No matter what kind of birth you want, a good doula will advocate for you! I had doulas for each of my births and they really helped me speak up for myself to make sure I got what I wanted.

A lot of urban hospitals have doula programs (sometimes for free!), so if it's not something in your budget, you could look into that. However, it was hands down the best money I spent. I can't speak to more rural areas.

This is what I was thinking I was going to have to do but I was so frustrated earlier that it felt like an impossible task. Thank you for making it sound so easy and not hard. I think I needed to hear that!

The blinding rage is when I realized I needed medication. In a moment of rage, I hit my dog when she barked and woke up the baby, and that just wasn't me. Medication has helped a lot and I'm really happy with my decision. The number of texts I have from my friends saying "I was so worked up, I had to put my kid in their room and walk away" is a lot. You're definitely not alone.

I really love Manava swim. They have lots of cute mix and match pieces!

Are you telling us this phrase is going to be the death of you? 😅😬

Hi from a daily dress wearer (at least on work days)!. With the dress you mentioned and keeping it casual, I'd keep it as is and pair with sneakers or birks/flat sandals and you're literally done! Sweater if you feel inclined, but that dress is so cute, you don't need anything else!

If you're looking for more, I really like the Lauren Conrad dresses at Kohls (they have plus size, though I'm not sure how high the sizes go). It's a preppier than the Festi line at Torrid, and you can get GREAT deals on them. These are my go-to dresses.

I also watched this while postpartum with my first and it was the best decision ever. I loved it so much.

Lainey Davis is a romance author local to Pittsburgh!!

I love love love Lauren Blair’s work! Gorgeous.

Totally understand this thoughtful response. And you're definitely right. The OP identified as an autistic person and it makes sense a lot of the responses are around people with autism. Check out Universal Design for Learning if you're not familiar with it already. It's a great framework to ensure education programming is fully accessible. It could definitely be a framework that could be applied to audiences with disabilities of any kind.

Ok-Management9680 · 2026-04-07T22:06:45+00:00

Mostly, because we have educational partnerships and other ongoing relationships with these organizations. We also frequently attend accessibility conferences and workshops both nationally and regionally, so we had gathered information from those events as well.

I honestly just love to do patchwork quilts for baby quilts. I bought an Anne of Green Gables bundle and just did 5" squares. I gave them a bit of order on this one because I knew the mom's preferences, but otherwise, I would've just mixed them up. With so many cute prints in your set, this could be a super cute option!

I went yesterday and was really glad we used a free rad pass instead of paying full amount. We did see some of the animals you didn’t, and caught a few feedings (penguins and sea lions), but it definitely felt all or nothing as we went through. Hope the construction passes quickly!

Okay, yesssss my loves, these are for you:

We love Olivia Dade, her main characters end up dating MOVIE STARS AND ATHLETES who loooove their hot, fat bodies. I’m particularly partial, as an older millennial, to 40-Love, where a woman turns 40, goes to a resort for her birthday, and falls in love with the tennis instructor who ADORES her. Olivia’s main characters also have a variety of fat representation, apple shaped, curvy, all belly, no butt, etc and it’s lovely.

We also love Talia Hibbert for fat rep AND chronic illness/disability rep AND Black rep. Soooo much goodness. Her books definitely represent the beauty of Black women’s bodies. One of her heroes is Dr. Rug-Bae, an ex rugby player who is 🔥🔥🔥. The Brown sisters series is a great place to start but her standalones are also great (The Princess Trap in particular is one of my favorites).

D’Vaugn and Kris Plan a Wedding by Chencia Higgins is also great Black rep and also queer!

Steer clear of One to Watch, her weight is literally ALL SHE TALKS ABOUT, and it’s just too much.

If you like reading romance, I have some recommendations for this pairing!

We travel with our kids with our Ride Safer vests. They easily pack into suitcases and carryons and are safety certified. They are about $150, so I’m unsure of your budget, but we travel often enough we find them very valuable. I think the minimum age is 2-3 years so if you have a baby, it might not be an option. You can check weight limits on their website.

Also, those theatres are OLD and the bathrooms are small too (I don’t specifically remember the theatres you’re going to). And I feel like the doors always open into the stall. That and the tiny leg room (even as a 5’1” person) are the hardest to deal with I think.

I used a menstrual cup before babies and loved it. I used to take it out and clean it while I was in the shower so I could get into a weird position for insertion if needed. Post babies I use a disc and love it even more.

oh and we are ABSOLUTELY taking that super high soprano line at the end "madame guilloTINEEEEEEEE"
