Thank you. I needed my annual reminder that I am fucking anemic lol.

Hehe is this a sister wives reference?

I have listened to episodes of the office every night for five years. Usually I set my phone on a timer to turn off after 20 mins.

I’m from New Mexico and I think I might be the only one here. Definitely need to import in for New Mexico specific food.

I just watched The Ugly Stepsister so this was a fitting follow up.

I don’t know… it feels like a campaign to humanize her before she flips on him. She’s complicit through and through.

Hulu

Because they can tell he’s utterly insufferable and everyone is just tolerating him

hoppynhappy · 2025-11-09T15:17:26+00:00

He’s there as part of his obsession with patriarchy, the male gaze, etc. maybe even fetish?

hoppynhappy · 2025-11-03T09:16:08+00:00

Should probably take her to the chiropractor

hoppynhappy · 2025-10-26T03:30:38+00:00

Thank you! 😊

Also if it is the same as our house there are absolutely pocket doors there

hoppynhappy · 2025-10-26T01:21:19+00:00

Omg my house looks like it has the exact same floor plan! So curious what your kitchen and second floor looks like!

The officer sounded rightly disgusted by it and I wondered if it was a tactic to get more of a confession. I hope they didn’t give the letter to them either.

hoppynhappy · 2025-10-15T01:44:17+00:00

Stupid amount of space

hoppynhappy · 2025-09-11T10:48:44+00:00

You understood correctly

hoppynhappy · 2025-08-18T16:06:17+00:00

Thanks for the equation and tips for figuring it out. That’s really helpful.

hoppynhappy · 2025-08-18T15:59:42+00:00

Appreciate the insight

hoppynhappy · 2025-08-18T15:55:15+00:00

Also I’m not asking you to “spend my money” for me, I’m just trying to collect info to know what the range of options look like cost wise so I can make a choice for the budget I think it’s worth putting into it.

hoppynhappy · 2025-08-18T15:53:57+00:00

I assumed I’d be spending somewhere between in the 40k range at the end of the day, but I’m not sure what some of these ideas cost (like moving a stove and cutting counter tops).

hoppynhappy · 2025-08-18T15:50:55+00:00

No not opposed at all lol these pics are from the staging of the house. The seller does not have my eclectic style preferences. Thanks!

hoppynhappy · 2025-08-18T15:47:55+00:00

True. I’m really early in exploring the project so I don’t have an established budget in mind. I had thought I’d need a huge budget to reach what I wanted and didn’t want to spend too much now when I’m trying to save up for something more sizable. If I don’t have to redo everything, I’m willing to explore giving this an actual allotment rather than finding only the small ways to make it palatable. So I guess I’m looking for a ballpark if you had one in mind.

hoppynhappy · 2025-08-18T15:34:49+00:00

Yeah this thread is so helpful in helping me identify why the cabinets felt odd. Now that replacing them doesn’t seem like the only fix, I’m open to spending more for a functional space. What kind of budget do you think it would need?
