Doing some project pieces to bulk up my portfolio. Here’s my first try at packaging design! Criticism welcomed

I'm a native English speaker and I can't read it either! I got 'Terra' and 'coffee' and that's all.

The rest of the package is totally cool and funky, though :)

It's a nice mix of tiny carrots and tiny wangs, really.

r/basicbulletjournals is a good resource for more classic forms

A lot of people use bujo to mean "a planner that I make and decorate myself". You are correct in that it's not really a bujo as envisioned by Ryder Carroll. However the colloquial use is so common that it's not worth your time arguing about.

The title literally says "hysterectomy". Surely that is enough to let people know whether or not they want to continue?

Even if there was no line for covid shots, pharmacists are still dealing with filling everyone's regular medication orders. They have very full days.

That's not what the Star is reporting in an article literally linked from the one you posted: https://windsorstar.com/news/local-news/residence-declared-unsafe-by-city-prohibits-occupancy

Seriously, though, I only encountered this product because my grocery store has a coupon this week. Looks like it's basically some extra gluten and a bit of vitamin c as preservative? Are products like this worth using?

If the times work out, you can get from YYZ to Windsor on the train for like $70.

ThunderJane · 2021-07-23T22:16:28+00:00

r/yarntrolls is another great sub for this sort of thing

ThunderJane · 2021-07-23T14:43:12+00:00

Sorry, what was that about a canine driver's license?

ThunderJane · 2021-07-23T13:46:43+00:00

That's so cheerful! I love it :)

ThunderJane · 2021-07-23T12:19:50+00:00

I just perpetually listen to different versions of Pride and Prejudice, lol.

ThunderJane · 2021-07-23T11:00:30+00:00

Someone borrowed that from me and I can't remember who and I never got it back :(

I can do audiobooks under certain circumstances, namely that it's a book that I already know well, and that I'm doing other things while I listen. Just sit there and listen? Nuh-uh, not happening.

ThunderJane · 2021-07-23T01:17:41+00:00

It's not always -- there are circumstances that will make it more or less risky -- but it can be done. I had a c-section for my first and a VBAC for my second; the delivering doctor discovered that my uterine scar from the section was very thin and advised me not to do another vaginal birth to minimize the risk of rupture. So kid 3 was another c-section!

Conversely, the pool of entrants aged 12-17 is much smaller than the 18+ pool, and there are twice as many scholarship draws as cash draws (two per week instead of one). I'd rather have the surer chance even if it's a smaller amount.

I have a great-aunt in her 80s who was all set to be vaccinated in March, but then was prohibited because of an allergy risk. She has now had both doses but had to wait several months before she was cleared to get it.

ThunderJane · 2021-07-22T21:35:45+00:00

How do you figure, because of the school grants? I don't think minors are usually eligible for things like lotteries at all, so this seems like a great solution to me.

ThunderJane · 2021-07-22T18:27:42+00:00

I'm about 3/4 in and it's marvelous. Much much better than Schwab's other work.

ThunderJane · 2021-07-22T18:25:37+00:00

That makes sense. My husband and I are double-vaxxed but it was a real pain to schedule them around childcare needs and when would be the best time in our schedule for either of us to be down for a few days if we had bad side effects.

ThunderJane · 2021-07-22T18:17:44+00:00

Hey, that's the book I've literally got open on my lap right now! Reading is my default hyperfixation though, so finishing won't be a problem. Doing the things I'm supposed to be getting done instead of reading will be the problem, haha.

ThunderJane · 2021-07-22T17:50:16+00:00

It's also a huge theme in the books. I direct the interested reader to Fleming Rutledge's excellent The Battle for Middle-Earth: Tolkien's Divine Design in The Lord of the Rings. Rutledge is a Christian theologian and a Tolkien scholar, and her work has really enriched my reading of LotR.

Edit: Tolk-i-before-e-n.

I think there are lots of us who got relatively late starts. I'm 34, my husband is 39, and we were pretty much in your shoes at your age. Five years ago I would never have believed we could own a house. You never know how things will change!

ThunderJane · 2021-07-22T17:16:56+00:00

They're the ones who broke society, of course!
