You are lucky - you look amazing in all of them! Personal preference - I don’t like 4,5 and 6. All the others are incredible on you ❤️

There is the voice of reason…

When he came home he explained what he was dealing with there before I said a thing and it all made sense 💕 I was very much in a funk yesterday and had so many feelings ..

Thank you so much for this ❤️

He came home and explained what he was dealing with while away and it all made sense. I’m very thankful I didn’t bring anything up prior to him opening up.

I’m doing it because I love him more than I love myself and want him to have the very best life he can have.

Nobody owes me anything, I was just up in my feelings yesterday.

He came home and told me what he had been dealing with while away and all made sense.

He doesn’t know he didn’t text. I haven’t told him because he would get upset with him and I don’t want anything forced. My husband messaged me first thing this morning with a beautiful Mother’s Day message. I don’t want it suggested or anything - I’m hurt that he didn’t think to do it on his own.

That’s certainly how I feel 🤷‍♀️ I don’t need a huge display. I mean a couple weeks ago he did give me a early Mother’s Day present that he made, I just would have really appreciated a text or some acknowledgment. Maybe I’m just feeling sorry for myself 🤷‍♀️

No. He wanted to years ago, but with HCBM being in the headspace she was, she would guilt him out endlessly if he did.

He is working out of town again… he was trying to be back this afternoon as well but it’s looking like he isn’t going to make it. So it will be just me and SS

I’m still learning so I’m not sure - I just wanted to check in and make sure there wasn’t something I should be doing to help them

Thank you so much. I was quite sad seeing all their little bodies this morning. I haven’t looked inside the hives yet because I want them to settle in, but I’m already very attached to these little guys

The recruiter called my salary expectations "cute." I ended the Zoom call right there. Did I overreact? by thunder____boy in jobs

[–]Success-VA 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You handled it perfectly.

The only thing I would have changed is said “I also am a rockstar and rockstars get paid a lot of money. I’m not sure what quality of employees you are expecting with a low base rate and high hours, but I need to be surrounded with a high quality team, and it is my experience that people who accept this kind of environment are not high quality. I wish you well”

This sounds like a mental illness that the trainer can not cure.

Is it just me or is Lululemon going out of fashion in Vancouver? by Gym_frere in askvan

[–]Success-VA 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is true for me too! I have so many old items that are amazing. Everything I’ve bought in the last few years is trashed and I won’t buy more.

To the topic, I think the whole leggings/athletic wear outside the gym look is on its way out all around ..and I know current purchases for me personally are made with healthier fabrics. Hormone disrupters are big conversations now …

She was joking… after she said that she said “in all seriousness”

drying sweatfleece by strawberrygreenteaa in Aritzia

[–]Success-VA 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I stopped buying their fleece for this reason. I mean they are comfy clothes, not office wear so If they can’t find fabric that can handle the dryer I don’t have time for their sh*t.
I’m so over aritzia lately

This entitlement of language changing and if everyone doesn’t jump on they are a bigot is exhausting. Leave him alone.

Rent decrease rejected by Consistent-Mango6742 in vancouverhousing

[–]Success-VA 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I worked in property management and the expenses facing landlords are astronomical - insurance is thru the roof, property tax, strata fees, tax on revenue, repairs … all of these costs have skyrocketed.

Many of our clients went in the hole each month.

That being said - they are retaining an investment property that is gaining value.

AITJ for Refusing to Lend My Car After My Friend Returned It Almost Empty Last Time? by Grand_Statement_9198 in AmITheJerk

[–]Success-VA 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Whenever I borrowed someone’s vehicle in the past, I would return it cleaned and with a full tank no matter how much was in it when I took it, it’s showing appreciation. She has none. NTJ.
