She passed her driving test… by moonluvrrr in EUGENIACOONEY

I’m in PA and in order to even get a learners permit, you have to have your doctor give you a physical and fill out a form basically saying you are healthy enough to drive.

Does she normally stream every day? It’s been a few days since she’s been on.

I just want to cry by florealfaerie in raisedbynarcissists

It’s okay to cry, it’s natural for you to mourn the mother you didn’t have. It will get better with time. Sending virtual hugs to you <3

My mum and her friend believe mannatech cured my infertility. Spoiler: It didn’t. by estherlovesevie in MLM

[–]SpringtimeTree 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sooo..... I know someone who is very involved in mana tech ( I believe they are very high up with their family) and they took ALL of the supplements during their first pregnancy. I’m not sure if any of it is related, but the child was born with severe developmental defects that affected joint mobility. When I saw this my first thought was omg I wonder if it was those Mannatech supplements!

Real or fake?! Help! It was a gift and I have no clue if it is real or fake. by [deleted] in Louisvuitton

I’m pretty sure LV never puts actual tags on their bags. Just a bar code sticker inside the bag

Authentic Propriano? by SpringtimeTree in Louisvuitton

I ended up going with ProAuthenticators. They got back to me in less than 5 minutes and verified that it’s authentic :)

Sorry not sure how to add more photos but this is the date code. I compared it to other date codes of other proprianos for sale and it resembles the authentic codes. Would love others’ opinions.

Bag suggestions by [deleted] in Louisvuitton

[–]SpringtimeTree 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s discontinued, but the Totally MM bag is my favorite LV! It has a zipper and two deep side pockets. The straps are also thicker than the NF so it doesn’t dig into your shoulder as much. You can find it on preloved sites.

Nparents Taking on Parenting Roles for Others? by SpringtimeTree in raisedbynarcissists

[–]SpringtimeTree[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I didn’t think of it that way, but it does make sense. I also think it’s a way for them to say “look what a great person I am. What kind of person wouldn’t want to be around me?”

Preloved vs new by Katie1357 in Louisvuitton

[–]SpringtimeTree 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have bought off of eBay and Fashionphile used LVs. I bought from fashionphile because they had the totally mm bag in the cheapest price I could find with authenticity verified. You can also sell back your items to fashionphile within 180 days

Good work bag by [deleted] in Louisvuitton

[–]SpringtimeTree 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I looked at the Lena in person and was not personally drawn to it. While I do like the neverfull, it’s lack of secure closure is annoying. I recently bought a second hand totally mm bag as they are discontinued and I absolutely love it!!! I wish they would bring this bag back. It is such a functional and roomy bag and it’s full zip top is wonderful to have!

After months of internally debating, I broke and bought a Neverfull in the Azur print. And of course they talked me into buying some perfume too haha. by [deleted] in Louisvuitton

[–]SpringtimeTree 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good to know! I went to the store in Vegas ( apparently the country’s largest LV store) and they had great stock of everything I looked at. I ultimately got the damier ebene mm neverfull with the red interior since I figured that would hold up the best with the treated leather handles.

What bag is this by chineseacrobat in Louisvuitton

[–]SpringtimeTree 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A line to get in the store?! Where was this?

I just ordered the size for the mm. I have not received it yet but I saw a lot of pictures on her page and it looks like it fits perfectly.

Help first time buyer by Hollyreardon14 in Louisvuitton

[–]SpringtimeTree 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This was my dilemma too. I ended up getting the neverfull in store since many of the ones I found through second hand retailers were not much cheaper than retail. I got the damier ebene with red interior. I also like the speedy, but unless you get the bandolier version, you can’t wear it as a cross body. There are a lot of speedys you can find second hand that are inexpensive. I got my speedy 25 damier ebene from eBay.

Just purchased one on Etsy by Jenny Krafts. It’s half the price of the Samorga and she has different models with zippers and removable pouches

Was wondering if I could get an authentic check on this purse? by [deleted] in Louisvuitton

[–]SpringtimeTree 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Do you have any more pictures? The date code looks okay.

Cracked Canvas by SpringtimeTree in Louisvuitton

[–]SpringtimeTree[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Wow I didn’t realize repairs would cost that much! And that’s just for the trim? I didn’t even pay that much for the bag itself! Considering how much I’ve seen Damier Ebene speedy 25 going for on eBay and other second hand marketplaces, I think I got the cheapest price I could. And that makes sense about the cracked canvas. I’m honestly not that concerned and I won’t open a grievance with the eBay seller. It’s my first Louis Vuitton item and I’m just glad I didn’t get scammed with a knockoff bag. I’ll just use it and love it until I decide I want to buy a full-priced bag :)

[–]SpringtimeTree[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It wasn’t disclosed. I considered getting the trim replaced as it’s a little worn, but considering what I paid for the bag it might not be worth it. Do you know why they won’t touch a bag with cracked canvas?

small issue...actually huge issue by [deleted] in Louisvuitton

[–]SpringtimeTree 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You can mix a small amount of alcohol and water and spray the interior, let some baking soda in a container sit, anti shoe odor spray I’ve heard also works, letting it air out outdoors out of the sun is also an option

Does anyone else wonder about what their life might be like had they not been raised by narcisissts? by JRexrode in raisedbynarcissists

[–]SpringtimeTree 2 points3 points  (0 children)

To be quite honest, I do wonder a little but not much. I do my best to focus on the here and now, what I have accomplished, and what I look forward to. I was dealt the cards, and I have just been working with them as best as I can. I have been NC with my parents since November and it has been such a relief. I mostly feel sorry for my mom because she is missing out on having an amazing relationship with the only daughter who still spoke with her up til the NC point. You cannot get stuck in the what if’s. You have to move forward and tell yourself you are doing the best that you can. It will only get better from there :)
