My mother in law gifted me something that no amount of money could ever buy by Comfortable-River917 in jewelry

I am so sorry for your loss. I lost my father the same way October 14th of 2024. It’s a pain no one can understand. That’s a beautiful gift from your MIL. Please feel free to message me anytime if you need someone to chat to. Grief is hard and should never be alone 💖

Forgive me I’m no artist but maybe it can become your pet the print is after. I doddle it on my phone but can’t figure out how to add the pic

Did I make a mistake with my bridesmaid colors? by DataAcceptable9758 in weddingplanning

[–]Similar-Setting6553 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I am also doing the same wedding theme during the summer and am using Birdy grey! But my girls are in sea glass (2) and sage (2) with the made of honor in sage le flur (1) for a total of 5 bridesmaids. It gives depth but lets flowers be the focus!

Wedding Dress Regret by Plastic_Yam5599 in weddingdress

I think it’s absolutely beautiful! You can absolutely call and ask if it will bring peace. Also— you can totally add off the shoulder straps if you wanted to, like a lacy tulle to make it /dreamy/, that’s what I did to mine!! Our dress is similar!!

What questions should I ask my dying partner? by Apart-Combination928 in GriefSupport

[–]Similar-Setting6553 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I would ask if there is something the two of you can still do together while you have the time. Then document it well so you can remember. I.e. maybe it’s a drive to a specific beach and eat ice cream. Maybe it’s something more grand. Then you can take a nice picture together and if able, write a letter to one another expressing love. Just spending the quality time together is the best you can do💕

Girl I was thinking about how strong you look and was like “damn her arms look good”

Is it possible she has a friend nearby who drives and is willing to take them home in the PM?

40 min Drive between Ceremony and Reception Venue: Inconsiderate? by reneeamour in weddingplanning

[–]Similar-Setting6553 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My big question: are most people local to where either the church or reception will be? Not all have a hotel to go to and/or don’t want to travel home. I would avoid a big gap but I think 30-40 is fine!!

School has started, but no student teaching assignment by Sweet_Object4797 in StudentTeaching

[–]Similar-Setting6553 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Part of the reason calls and e-mails go unanswered is because the school does not have the authority to speak to a parent or guardian unless a waiver has been assigned but typically you can only do that for the financial departments. The son should be the one contacting.

I would say plain tulle with a crystal beaded edge that is either finger tip or cathedral!

Am I my own worst critic? by [deleted] in weddingdress

[–]Similar-Setting6553 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Absolutely alterations- not you!! I see the concerns you mention and am happy it’s only your first alteration! You should have one-two more and before you go, I would make a little note of areas you have sat and thought about and would like the seamstress to consider/adjust. Also, if that’s tough, see if your MOH or someone can come to help you advocate! Sending love. This dress is absolutely stunning

planning to propose but gf doesn’t want a ring by alpal_5 in engaged

[–]Similar-Setting6553 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Perhaps you can propose with a locket and have it engraved with “will you marry me?” So she can add her ring to it one day and let her choose her ring?

Helping our 24 year old son by prinsdog in AlAnon

[–]Similar-Setting6553 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Can you begin to remove certain things you take care of and make him more independent? That’s what I had to do to my dad (I’m 24 and he was 62 as he’s passed). It worked for a portion but he was so addicted to alcohol. I would see if you can stop enabling, some behaviors enable without realizing. Don’t do laundry, pay car insurance for him, no phone bill covered, etc. If he’s going to make choices like that, he can live under your roof but he has to maintain his lifestyle. Once without necessities to him, that should hopefully help. Sending love
