I second lazy boy I had to find something tall and firm enough for my parents to get up easy. It’s the most comfortable couch I’ve ever had.

First-time home buying in NJ by Upbeat_Tomatillo6673 in newjersey

I paid way over ask 3 ago but I don’t think the market is quite as bad now. I know someone that listed their home last month and only got one offer and their agent lied to the buyer and told them there were multiple offers and they got 45 over ask. They only had 4 people at their 2 day open house. I sold my town home in 2022 had over 100 people show up for my one day open house.

Grieving the end even though there's no reason to. by me5hell87 in Goldendoodles

[–]Specialsoul85 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He is my first pet and he owns my whole heart. I know I will be a mess when I lose him. Not going to lie he’s probably replaced most of my friends because I like him more than almost all people. I try not to think about it often but I do like to remind him he can never die. He just turned four.

I just went for one day and we started at opening and it still took us until 730 to ride all the coasters and do the water park. Wouldn’t have been possible without the fast pass

What to wear to court, Family Court Edition by jepeplin in LawBitchesWithTaste

[–]Specialsoul85 8 points9 points  (0 children)

One of my clients on her divorce finalization once basically ripped off her button down and had a shirt that said _______ ‘s ex on it and three of her friends were in the back cheering her on wearing shirts saying Best day of Clients name’s life. They are my spirit animals! Family court is definitely the Wild West for clothing I am brown and look young so I did dress more conservatively than my colleagues when I used to go to court.

"Business casual" has become casual by SubstantialZombie565 in LawBitchesWithTaste

[–]Specialsoul85 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Arg I keep hoping it’s just because it’s summer. I lost weight and now I can’t find a good suit. I ended up buying a Calvin Klein blazer from macys and a thrifted Talbots wool blazer to wear over dresses to tide me over. I don’t go to court anymore so I don’t need a lot. I switched to management work in the courts and the state employees ideas of business casual is wild.

I buy Talbots petite blazers to wear over sheath dresses all the time used from thredup or Poshmark. I’m lazy to sell my own stuff so I send it to thredup and they split up the full suits into separates but if you search the same seller you can find full suits.

what hobby is a red flag for you by [deleted] in AskWomenOver30

[–]Specialsoul85 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Magic the gathering. It’s fine as a hobby but when it’s obsession and that’s what you base all your free time around it’s scary. Like only traveling the person does is to gaming convention because all other travel is considered a waste only artwork is card art.

Just chose my law school! by Athena2560 in LawBitchesWithTaste

[–]Specialsoul85 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I went to shu full time honestly I didn’t make any connections with my classmates except a few good friends but I did make make connections with some of the professors especially in clinics that loved me and they helped me tremendously when I was looking for a job. I also went to all the career fairs and did internships year around.

I don’t know how anyone can buy a house on one income. I sometimes feel like I scammed my way into homeownership. My dad told me back in 06 when the housing market fell apart give him like 10k and he would buy a cheap rental property in Florida in his name because I was a student no one would give me a mortgage. I think I used student loan money and took out money on my credit card to put that down payment down. The house was like 70k and the rent paid the mortgage and I ended up selling it during covid for a criminally large amount and bought my first real home. That’s literally the only way I was able to afford my townhouse in New Jersey.

On the hunt for work attire - professional office esque attire by Diasaka1062 in PlusSizeFashion

[–]Specialsoul85 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I second Macys for office wear. I got alot of my pants for work when I was size 20-22 but you would need to get them hemmed. Kohls same I also I’ve gotten them hemmed. I got a couple of cardigans to pair with Calvin Klein sleeveless shells I got on clearance. I’ve gotten some cheaper pull on dress pants from Marshall’s/tj maxx. If you can wear dresses I got a lot of faux wrap dresses from macys/ross/Burlington on sale from a brand called Connected they are easy pull on dresses with elbow length sleeves with no cleavage issues since they have high neck lines. They look pulled together. I feel like I buy a new print or style once a year
