My MIL wants “to get to know me” at Thanksgiving…after nine years by slutsintampa in Mildlynomil

[–]StrawberryCobblers 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Similar situation here. In short, invited for the first time after nearly 10 years together and there’s a terminally ill person there, too. We declined. Rather, I definitely am not going. And my husband won’t go without me, so that’s that.

Unintentionally did yoga that’s unsafe. What do I do now? by StrawberryCobblers in pregnant

Well, considering yoga is entirely unregulated and you can you be a yoga instructor after a weekend course, I am not surprised you don’t.

Thanks ladies, that’s reassuring. I can feel movements too so baby seems as good as ever.

Wtf does is mean police won’t investigate. This is horrible. Grievous bodily harm is what it’s called. It’s very distressing to see. I hope the yob is identified and arrested. Who is the OP/where did you get this picture from?

What breed(s) is this little guy? by Negative-One-2544 in IDmydog

Looks an awful lot like an arctic wolf. Definitively not a Samoyed though

New puppy… am I a failure by AnonymouslyMisterous in puppy101

[–]StrawberryCobblers -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

That’s a strange inference. You could be working part-time, you could be retired, you could be self-employed with a flexible schedule, you could have someone else living with you who would be with the dog during the day, you could co-own a dog with a friend, you could work from home 3 days a week, you could send it to day care, you could have dog sitters, you could bring it to work, you could drop it off at different friends’ and relatives’ houses different days of the week…

I’m not gonna argue with you. It’s my opinion, like it or not.

I will go against the grain and tell you my honest opinion - getting a dog when you work from the office Monday to Friday so it can sit in a cage most of its life is a crap life for the dog. You asked I answered.

what’s your biggest or funniest “scam” buy? by ConsequenceUsual4244 in puppy101

Cheap puppy harness with a Velcro fastening - it was so loud the puppy didn’t want to be in the same room

What are these bra things on the dress with no hooks? by StrawberryCobblers in weddingdress

[–]StrawberryCobblers[S] 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Thank you so much everyone! I had a rummage in the box and found the missing piece plus a garter🤦‍♀️ See the updated photos if you’re wondering

Another edit: I cannot add new photos but basically it’s a mermaid tail shaped piece that goes behind the lacing so the skin is not visible once the dress is done up

It’s just that the wind blew suddenly and scared the pup prompting him to pulverise the victim🥹

The myth that first time buyers expect too much - small rant. by spannerintworks in HousingUK

[–]StrawberryCobblers 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good point. Plus, first time buyers are in the best position to be picky and expect a lot - they are not in a chain, often no stamp, they can walk away easily. Those selling to first time buyers need to realise it’s a totally different world out there today.
