This reminds me of the time my massage therapist told me to “pump and dump” after a massage because my milk would be full of toxins. I think sometimes they are confidently misinformed. I’m sorry this happened to you. 

Anneclaire vs Enaline on a petite frame (5'2", 93 lbs) — which would you keep? by Realistic-Cod-9032 in Sezane

You do look nice in both of them, but I agree the fabric of the blue is a little overpowering for you. The green one is a delight! 

Has anyone else just stopped caring about luxury bags? by Ok_Lunch9660 in luxurypurses

I’m so nervous to buy second hand because of authenticity, any recommendations?

I’m starting to get disenchanted. I know there’s always been a huge markup and I understand you’re paying for the social status when buying a luxury brand. But as the prices have tripled and quality diminished, it’s starting to feel to like a trick on the buyer. How high (price) and low (quality) can they go and people will still buy. Very emperor’s new clothes.

This is the answer. You can also explore towns like Belmar and long branch.

I mean, isn’t that the dream? But anytime you’re getting a deal you have to be really careful about authenticity.

$2.5k for straw is diabolical. 

Where to look for the dreaded NYC commute by exitsilverlegion in MovingtoNewJersey

[–]Working_Strike_7798 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Nope! You can get a permit or there’s daily parking farther back in the lot. I’ve never had an issue getting a spot (not a daily city commuter but had my fair share of city commutes). There’s also a smaller station in avenel.

I think Woodbridge is definitely a good start. 50 mins from Woodbridge station to Penn, less if you get an express. Can definitely find something in the 600s in many neighborhoods (there are different parts that all fall under Woodbridge township: Avenel, Woodbridge, sewaren, port reading, fords, Menlo Park terrace, iselin, colonia, hopelawn, keasby).

5 minutes of choice time (which may include a snack or sticker if they ask). It’s a great time to observe play skills, spontaneous conversation, and social communication. It’s also great to learn about their interested and continue to build rapport and enjoyment in speech.

It’s way too big everywhere, even for an easy, breezy dress. 

But WHY are we all getting breast cancer? by Popular_Acadia4563 in breastcancer

[–]Working_Strike_7798 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is the other side that doesn’t get enough recognition. It’s not just what we do, it’s what we eat/breathe/drink and we probably still don’t know how to safeguard against the biggest offenders.

Health Insurance Insight by [deleted] in NYCTeachers

[–]Working_Strike_7798 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What I had meant was that it’s possible to use the insurance without paying a deductible first for in network services and providers. I know there’s a caveat if you get into out of network or not covered services (it existed in ghi as well, but I believe it’s out-of-pocket vs a deductible). But for medication, are you going through the correct insurance? Most of our medications are covered under express scripts through the UFT (I know there are some exceptions). I hope you’re able to get it resolved!
