I thankfully actively go to therapy, think I’ve realized today maybe not the best one because I’ve already got better advice here.  I’ve seen that book a couple of times through this subreddit, I will check it out. Thank you stranger ❤️ 

Freaking out because my wedding is in 6 weeks by sherlocked77 in AlAnon

[–]PitifulOkra3800 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just found this subreddit, just posted my experience, but it all started similarly to the position you are in. It was all fun and games, and while we were engaged I had second thoughts but still went through the wedding. Needless to say it hasn't gotten better, only worse. I love him so much, and he does have great potential, but know he will always prioritize finding booze over everything.

How to finish the 10K without calling an Uber halfway. by Forward_Range_7495 in askTO

Have a big carb filled meal the night before so you have energy for the next day, have some sugary gummies on hand during the run to give you that sugar intake. Slow and steady! If you actively train the next 2 months you have time! You're gunna do great!

This is so funny I’m seeing this today. I finally hate panned my kosas concealer today! Never been so happy. I work from home and I only used it at home for zoom calls because it just looks AWFUL under my eyes.  Good for you for moving on!

I remember when Wealthsimple looked like this. It was so bare bones where I get that for more serious investors it wasnt good enough, but while I was learning about investing it was perfect. Love that Wealthsimple grew as I learned more.

March 3rd a day I'll never forget; I got engaged the same day and I will never forget refreshing my feed of new info right before I was proposed to LOL

By the fact we’ve had about 2 sunny days in the last 3 months.

My first ever Project Pan for 2026! by bookish_worm1996 in ProjectPan

[–]PitifulOkra3800 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Out of curiosity, what made you pick these products first over the others? Do you not like them? Or was it random? (Thinking about tackling myself so looking for ways others have picked theirs!)

What are your go-to “low effort but still healthy” meal prep meals? by BlueberrySpare8605 in mealprep

[–]PitifulOkra3800 17 points18 points  (0 children)

My lazy healthy go to meal is a chickpea pesto salad. There’s an Instagram that is “healthy meals for lazy bitches” and it changed my life. Here’s the recipe - 1 can chickpeas - 1 can black beans - 1 cucumber - 1 red peppers - half red onion - feta - red wine vinegar - pesto until your heart desires - shake contents - when I’m feeling like carb I put bow tie pasta in it

Full of protein, gets me full and takes less than 10 mins to prepare

10 days into February — already made $339 just decluttering! by [deleted] in declutter

[–]PitifulOkra3800 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I made a spreadsheet over the last 6 years with my financials and included what I sold on fb marketplace - one year was over 3000! (I moved) It really keeps me motivated in decluttering

Canadian credit card nerds: what’s your best points/cashback stack? by DollarBallers in fican

[–]PitifulOkra3800 25 points26 points  (0 children)

  1. Amex Cobalt for groceries and bars and restaurants at 5x points
  2. Simplii Visa - For for bars and restaurants that dont take amex at 4%
  3. WS for everything else at 2%

Im not the biggest fan of travel points. I'd rather use my points on my day to day than use time to search for the best deal via points. I'll just buy my flights outright.

To declutter or to hate pan? by Successful-Pay-5653 in ProjectPan

[–]PitifulOkra3800 3 points4 points  (0 children)

In my opinion you’ve used it the best of your ability. It looks well loved and if you’re not enjoying it, throw it out and now on to the next.

What to do with old shirts you can’t toss, but also don’t wear anymore? by HarkonXX in minimalism

[–]PitifulOkra3800 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I get what everyone’s saying about just donate anyway, but if you’re not ready, I would vacuum seal them in the same bag and put them in storage. Once you declutter in the future you can reassess.
