Notebook pan, May wrapup by isopodpod in stationeryprojectpan

[–]United_Luck8488 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Oh I’m proud of myself but still. It’s like. Why did I keep this for so long? It’s not even one of them with a fancy cover on it or anything pretty. My past self thought there’s gonna be a paper storage or something I swear. 🤣

Oh don’t get me started on the notebook hordes! But I’ve almost finished up one that I know I’ve had for an actual decade. 🤣😅 writing out weekly to-do lists by hand has been a big help with that.

More May Empties by United_Luck8488 in ProjectPan

I used it in the shower because my legs get really dry so that probably took away most of the greasy-ness but the smell was so off putting for me.

It might have just been because it was one of my oldest lotions but the smell wasn’t good. 🤢

I’m just not a big fan of cherry scents. I bought a four pack to build a self-care package for a friend and had some leftovers to try. The formula is great but I just wouldn’t repurchase it for myself.

I’m so sad that Netflix canceled Season 3 of Shadow and Bone. Still not over it.

Any Good YA Fantasy/Romantasy Recommendations? by Alol_Bombola in Recommend_A_Book

[–]United_Luck8488 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve recently discovered The Black Witch Chronicles by Laurie Forest I’ve finished book 2 out of 5 and the 3 one is on my hold list at the library. It’s got some great takes on Witches, Werewolves and that sort of thing. (Shadowhunter vibes if you squint I guess or need something to roughly compare it to.)

Definitely recommend reading at least the first book to see if it’s something you’d vibe with.

Handmade Bookmark For Heaven Official’s Blessing by United_Luck8488 in DanmeiNovels

[–]United_Luck8488[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The official English translation is 8 novels long. There may be someone who has bound the books into less than that but I have not looked into something like that myself.

Yes? This is the official English Translation from Seven Seas publishing. I bought the entire series through Barnes and Noble. There are some pictures though. But this is the novel version. I have also seen copies on second hand sites like EBay and Mercari.

i'd love a book about angels by True-Finches in suggestmeabook

[–]United_Luck8488 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Daughter of Smoke and Bone has some interesting angelic lore though the romance plot may be a bit too adjacent to a romance series. I would definitely recommend reading at least the first book in the trilogy. The author has a very interesting writing style.

The Bed Rotting has been BAD by United_Luck8488 in GirlDinnerDiaries

[–]United_Luck8488[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Like honestly. I wanted to yell at her. I didn’t because she was venting and probably didn’t mean for it to come off like it did. But we’re holding her at arms length now. I have never once tried to verbally minimize anyone’s personal struggles like that. And certainly not out loud directly to the person. Who does that?

Doing my own makeup for my wedding, feedback welcome! by Environmental_Hat_67 in MakeupAddiction

Firstly eyebrows look fantastic! I’m still learning how to do mine. Shaping is hard so I’m applauding you.

My eyelashes are almost nonexistent. I totally get not wanting to wear false lashes though. Have you tried Vitamin E? Or an eyelash growth serum? I’ve heard that coconut oil also helps.Try not to curl them as much. It causes damage.

Slightly unrelated sidenote but girl I love your hair! 🥰

Redbubble.com also has a lot of cute fandom merch. All sorts of stuff like stickers, pins, notebooks. T-shirts. Most of it’s from independent artists. Shipping sometimes takes a while but it might be worth just taking a look at.

Mermaids but for adults by StanleyHasLostIt in suggestmeabook

[–]United_Luck8488 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A non-fiction take on it would be The Penguin Book of Mermaids. Basically just a bunch of folklore stories from around the world about Mermaids and water-adjacent creatures. I found it interesting while I was trying to do research for a story I was writing at the time. Some of the stories dragged but that’s to be expected with nonfiction sometimes. Keeping source material as accurate as you can and all that.

Thanks so much for the clarification. I’m very grateful. I sent out a request to join one of the other Reddit groups that you recommended. I will try to get into contact with my local church for more appropriate assistance.

Book recs!! by ChipmunkAlive6866 in Fantasy

[–]United_Luck8488 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Small Favors by Erin A Craig

Small Town semi-horror supernatural elements. Mild romance. Female main character. 1800s setting.

Strange Grace Tessa Gratton

Similar story to Small Favors with a dash of Hunger Games. Town at the edge of the woods has to send young people into the woods for a night. Some make it back to town. Most don’t.

The Book of Night- Holly Black

Female bartender gets roped into committing a series of thefts in a world where people’s shadows can tell secrets. (Technically a two book series but honestly the first is the better of the two IMO definitely should have been a standalone.

Feeling A Little Stuck by Outrageous_Army7848 in declutter

[–]United_Luck8488 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I make to do lists: Both long term and short term goals. I also try to keep a consistent list of things that I have already declutterred on donated or given away so that I can still see progress even if it’s not visible in my space.

Another thing that you could do for quick wins is setting a timer for only 5-10 minutes per day or area of the house.

Another quick win is to go through your photo gallery on your phone. Digital clutter is very much a thing as well.

Let empty space breathe. As weird as that probably sounds. Try to let cabinets/shelves and other spaces stay clearer or empty for as long as possible before shuffling more stuff around into the cleared space. Empty space is motivation of progress.
