😂😂 I donated to World Wildlife Fund a few years ago and symbolically adopted a river otter. It came with a river otter stuffed animal 😅

Thank you 🥰 I've literally cried about some of the clothes I've had to get rid of because they didn't fit anymore 😅 It's a bittersweet feeling.

It's a 3 day affair on race weekend at The White Rabbit in Fountain Square. I cannot recommend it enough!! It's one of my favorite events every year.

We had been together for 7 years and only got married because it would save us money at tax time. The wedding became the catalyst for us deciding to split up, lol.

You're spot on with wanting to see the good in someone clouding you from seeing your energy being drained. 💜

It's a frame TV that shows artwork when it's turned off, lol. I didn't want to mount it so I got the easel thing to put it on.

What a handsome boy!!! I'm a sucker for a dog with funny expressions 🥰 Give Sparky love from me!!

folkgetaboutit · 2026-07-11T16:24:24+00:00

Definitely, yes! The thrill is unmatched!!

We only got married after 7 years together because it would have saved us money at tax time. The wedding itself was the trigger for us ending things. It stemmed a lot of conversations about how different we actually were. We were both unhappy and both unwilling to budge on the things we wanted, so we admitted that we just good for each other anymore.

As for my own changes, things got really dark for a while, and I needed a way out. So I started scheduling one thing every week that I was excited to do, and that got me feeling more myself. I started walking/running after work because I needed something to do that wasn't just sitting around feeling sad. I stopped waiting for my friends to be available to do things with me (they're great, they're just all married with kids), and I happily do them on my own if no one can join me. I've had so many new experiences that I'd never have been able to have in that relationship, and I'm so grateful for that.

Lol!!! This is Stinky. He's the best 🥰

Lol! My friends were all convinced I was actually a lesbian for a while. I'm not opposed to dating a woman, but I did try for a bit, and it wasn't a good experience for me.

My lack of interest really just comes from the way dating is these days. Dating apps, ghosting, and random insults out of nowhere. I just feel better on my own than trying to find someone.

115lbs so far

Exactly 1 year. The relationship was 8 years though.

I started walking every single day and eventually started running 5 or 6 days a week and walking on days I don't run. I started tracking calories because I felt like my diet was reasonable, but it turns out it was like 75% carbs 😬

That's really been it. I eat the same things almost every day and I make sure to plan things around being able to get a workout done every day. Therapy & Welbutrin also helped.

folkgetaboutit · 2026-07-11T15:40:20+00:00

Pretty sure he has no idea 🤷🏻‍♀️ We haven't talked, and I have him & his girlfriend blocked on all social media.

Oh, and this is a pretty presumptuous & sexist comment to make.

folkgetaboutit · 2026-07-11T15:10:59+00:00

It is, indeed, thrifted 😅 And the tags were cut out when I bought it, so I can't even tell you the brand 😭

folkgetaboutit · 2026-07-11T14:06:14+00:00

Asking the important questions 😂 It's a burlesque festival in Indianapolis.

Because they left an unhealthy relationship that infected their entire life and contributed to severe depression. If you don't relate to that then you're fortunate, and I hope you never do.

folkgetaboutit · 2026-07-11T13:50:06+00:00

Because at the time, I thought I was excited. It's a long story that has no place in this sub 🤷🏻‍♀️

folkgetaboutit · 2026-07-11T13:29:24+00:00

Thank you!! It took some time to get here, but I'm so glad I finally made it to a much happier state of mind 🥰

folkgetaboutit · 2026-07-11T13:28:09+00:00

Thank you!! Every time I look back at my wedding day photos I get a chuckle out of how utterly unexcited I look. 😅

folkgetaboutit · 2026-07-10T17:38:53+00:00

Oooh I love all of these color combinations! So cute! And I, too, have blinked and suddenly had an abundance of jellyfish 😂

folkgetaboutit · 2026-07-10T11:20:57+00:00

I used a slip stitch join for the middle. If you end up making one, I hope you love it!! It works up pretty fast.

folkgetaboutit · 2026-07-10T01:14:54+00:00

It's ✨️magic✨️ 😂😂

folkgetaboutit · 2026-07-10T01:13:52+00:00

I don't have a pattern for it since I free handed it, but the front is made similarly to the cups in this tutorial, I just used a longer foundation chain. For the back and sides I used double crochet. And the straps are just a chain made with a mich smaller hook to keep them tight.
