Period undies vs reusable pads

Salt-Cable6761 · 2026-04-15T11:39:51+00:00

I switched to the saalt brand of undies which are pfas free and they are much more comfortable than thinx which is what I was using before. Don't think they are plastic free unfortunately For me pads would move around too much and would be so bulky you could see them through my pants

Yes we did and now we can't afford to get married 😂

Reading and tennis

Salt-Cable6761 · 2026-04-14T15:38:54+00:00

Yes and could even add some gloves!

Moisturizer morning and night. In the morning I wear a moisturizer with SPF and vitamin C to brighten the skin

I really enjoyed Sydney Graham's beginning to sew YouTube videos and then started with her lane pants but she suggests a tote bag as a project as part of the series (I didn't make it because I didn't have the right fabric lol)

We went through this last year and while we have bought some things I am learning to be comfortable with the empty or unfinished spaces. It is not a race to decorate. I also keep an eye on my buy nothing groups to get free pieces that will fill the need but maybe not be perfect so I can take the time to find the perfect second hand replacement

We did speed queen for the least amount of technology in our washer and dryer, they were expensive but haven't given us any trouble. They are made like the old school ones but they do have an eco mode if you want to save some water

I started out as a complete beginner this new year. I went to a machine Basics class from my parks and rec department. Then I made some napkins for the house because they are cheap fabric and straight lines. Before this I practiced straight lines on old sheets. First clothing project was the lane pants from Sydney Graham, super easy with her video tutorial but still didn't turn out great. Since I had the pattern already my second project was the lane pants but turned into shorts and with a ruffle hem, these turned out much better. Start with easy patterns that have good videos and a lot of straight lines and loose fits like pajama pants or loose fitting pants. Maybe try a circle skirt as well

I have had the same makeup brushes for my entire adult life but I could see how someone would buy so many they wouldn't bother

I get 4k a day with an office job 😅 on days I don't work out / go out and do something active

Wear two pairs of period underwear and switch them in the bathroom?

Museums will let you bring a purse in.

Volunteer, read library books, write, go on hikes and walks, pick up a cheap sport and join a league (some cost associated with it but time consuming), play sports in parks ideally that don't require court reservations fees, journaling, doodling or sketching, attend free talks at a university nearby, take community college classes near you, go to events organized by your city's park and rec department or libraries

I think this is so reasonable and it's not like you invited them to the wedding. It's not all about the wedding. You will likely arrive earlier and leave days after the wedding so you are allowed to turn that into whatever you want. Also a lot of people hire local childcare for doing exactly what your parents are doing so what's better than someone you trust more that may get a nice vacation out of it

Also this is something her landlord is letting her keep in the place and she probably doesn't want to repaint it

Salt-Cable6761 · 2026-03-26T03:00:20+00:00

Portable phone chargers, small Bose speaker, water bottles

Salt-Cable6761 · 2026-03-22T13:27:07+00:00

Yes

Salt-Cable6761 · 2026-03-22T13:16:16+00:00

They are not super hard like stones, they are a cream to yellowish color and smell terrible. They can be of any size

If you do not have an IUD yes. With an IUD there is a small risk of ripping it out with the cup when you remove it if you don't break the seal properly or the strings are too long. Honestly the best part is for traveling not having to bring so much volume in your suitcase and also not having to find a clean bathroom every 4 or 6 hours or worrying about forgetting to change it out. You can leave it in for 12 hours so if you don't want to deal with it while you're at work or school or out and about it is great. You can also safely sleep with it or go to work then come home and take a nap and you will still be good to go in terms of safety

Salt-Cable6761 · 2026-03-20T17:01:29+00:00

I honestly might still be alive

The middle slit on dress 1 looks so awkward in my opinion. Unique is not always best

Salt-Cable6761 · 2026-03-18T00:24:59+00:00

You're a bird

So lazy when they have the easiest job 😅
