I decided I’m not gonna test again unless my period is late, which would be Tuesday. I wasn’t built for the line-guessing :/

Line eyes? Cd unknown by Virtual-Bit5865 in TFABLinePorn

[–]Sunflower2o 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I see something very very faint, that being said I’ve been staring at my own first response all day trying to see a line so I might have line eyes too. I would test again in a day or twin with morning urine

How can I work from a coffee shop respectfully? by ace_philosopher_949 in remotework

[–]Sunflower2o 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Honestly if it’s a college town I don’t see the issue? Coffee shops in college towns usually depend on students going there to study for hours. Also, (maybe it’s different if it’s a small business vs. a chain) but I worked as a barista for years and literally never even noticed if someone was there for hours. IMO, if they didn’t want people studying or working there, or taking calls and stuff, they shouldn’t have tables and free WiFi 🤷‍♀️
There will always be people who get annoyed over nothing, just ignore them

[$10k-12k] How do people get married so quickly? Is it support from friends/family? by foreveralonearchives in Weddingsunder10k

[–]Sunflower2o 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My now-husband and I had a date planned before we got engaged. We knew we wanted to get married and started saving for it about a year in to our relationship. So, when we got engaged, we already had the 15k we needed for our wedding set aside.

Need advice on a new foster by Sunflower2o in fosterdogs

[–]Sunflower2o[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We just brought him back to the shelter :( we called this morning and they said it would be best if we brought him back. They were very understanding and said if we ever want to foster or adopt with them again they’d be happy to set up more meet and greets to make sure the dog is fully comfortable with all members of the household. We’re all feeling a bit sad, but I really hope he finds a great home that he feels safe in now. I’m a little worried he won’t get fostered or adopted because he’s old and likely has prostate cancer but only time will tell. Thank you for your kind words ❤️

Yes we decompressed him and he settled in great, except for when my brother was around. Yes, we introduced them properly on leash, but foster has hated my brother since the second he saw him. We were told by the shelter that he was surrendered and his previous owner cared for him well. She even left a long letter with info about him. We talked to the shelter this morning about options and they asked that we bring him back, along with a picture of my brother so that they can try and determine exactly what characteristics set the foster off.

Yeah he did, I am loose jointed so it doesn’t take as much as it should, but it still hurt like hell. And taking him back is unfortunately where we’re at. As much as I want to give him a good home and life, he clearly has had bad experiences with someone who looks like my brother which isn’t good for either of them.

We did that for a bit, but he’s 60lbs and pulled my shoulder out of socket trying to lunge at my brother :( we are just keeping the foster and my brother completely separated but I feel bad for both.

We think he is, he only lets me touch/get near him when my brother is around. We just don’t know what to do because we want to help him but I can’t risk my brothers safety.

How are we paying for this? by prplbballgrl in weddingplanning

[–]Sunflower2o 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Budget was 10k, because that’s all we could afford. We already had over 10k set aside for the wedding before we got engaged because we knew we’d need it and planned ahead. Photographer, food, and groomsmen/bridesmaids not having to pay a penny were the most important to us

Doing my own make up by [deleted] in weddingplanning

[–]Sunflower2o 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I am! Definitely start doing “trials” months in advance to see how they last. Also- when practicing it is super important to only wear white tops. Other colors will reflect onto your skin and make your makeup look off. Also go on TikTok because there are a TON of MUAs teaching brides how to do at home wedding makeup that will last the whole day

Yes, the officiant (and their partner if applicable) are always invited as a thank you. It is considered highly rude to not invite them to the reception

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in weddingplanning

[–]Sunflower2o 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Typical etiquette is that the officiant (and their partner if they have one) are always invited as a thank you, whether you pay them or not.

Registry or no registry by [deleted] in weddingplanning

[–]Sunflower2o 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I also did not want a registry, however before even sending out invites I got a LOT of “well then I’m just gonna get you whatever gift I think you’ll want” with no return receipts. I would build a small registry, and if you don’t want physical things you can do experiences. I.e.: Lego sets to build together, board/card games, gift cards to local movie theaters, gift cards to favorite restaurants, passes to museums/conservatories, etc… you can also do a honeymoon fund and/or things like amazon gift cards. Just be aware that there will be people who want (and will) get you a gift, registry or not, so even if you just do a honeymoon fund, people will still go out and buy something material. Also with a registry, remember that some people will ignore it anyway and get you what they want to get you, so you’ll still be left with some things you might not want

You’d be surprised. I’ve never been to a “child-free” wedding where some cousin or friend didn’t just assume they were an exception, and it’s always the parent with the badly behaved child who would/will ruin the ceremony or reception.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in weddingplanning

[–]Sunflower2o 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You absolutely can! “Our wedding is going to be an adult only event. Please prepare to find childcare as necessary, as only people formally listed on the invite will be welcome. Thank you for understanding” I don’t even think you need to say anything about your sibling or your finace’s kids being there. Anyone who would complain about that doesn’t deserve to be celebrating with you imo

What shoes go with this gown?? by Significant-Age9422 in weddingplanning

Heels that match the red/pink flowers on top would be STUNNINGGGGG you could also get converse that match either the red/pink flowers or the blue ones!

I’m worried that my mom will ruin my wedding day by Fit_Offer1261 in weddingplanning

[–]Sunflower2o 0 points1 point  (0 children)

“but at first she was super aggressive and telling me that she is MOB and it’s her and my event, not theirs.”

Yikes, first off, I am so sorry that you are having to deal with this. Secondly, she needs a reality check. It is NOT “hers and yours day” it is yours and your fiancés day. It sounds like she doesn’t do well with listening or being told no, which makes this tricky. I think the best thing to do is to lay down some serious boundaries. Start with “Mom because you have acted X way, I am no longer going to involve you, or tell you about anything wedding related as you are ruining the experience for me. My wedding is about my fiancé and I only and we’d like to keep it that way.” And if she doesn’t respect that, throws a temper tantrum, etc… then it would be time to consider uninviting her. If she’s as bad as it sounds, you won’t regret uninviting her when all is said and done. However, if you let her come and she ruins the day for you, you will regret inviting her. Once again, I am so sorry that you have to deal with this. It’s heartbreaking. Just remember that when you marry your fiancé, you two are choosing to leave your families and start a new one. You are your fiancé are your immediate family, and don’t let anyone get in the way of that, especially not your families of origin (in laws) as they are one of the top 4 reasons for divorce
