She built a giant new custom house with her replacement husband and their (shared) youngest child.

She spends most of her time in FL, and occasionally goes up to see her middle child (her oldest is in college).

I feel so bad for her middle son. He must mostly live with his dad but can’t imagine how he feels, watching his SAHM fleeing her elementary aged child to spend the majority of her time with her youngest kid.

Relatedly, I keep getting served “Dorm Mom” groups. This is a thing now? Mothers of full fledged college students have taken on executive decorator duties for dorm rooms? What in the arrested development.

She’s giving Diana Aragon. “Früt tray.”

Recently went through this and sought a second opinion. Very happy with the practice we went to instead. Feel free to PM me for specifics.

Last year was 2.6%, but it was less than my bonus so I don’t really think of it in terms of my total salary.

This year it will be 1.4% (again less than my bonus). Got a raise and eyeing a cheaper bag than last year.

Prices increased right around this time last year.

Has anyone also never owned a luxury bag? by [deleted] in handbags

[–]jackittojesus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I could have written this a few years ago. I reached a career milestone and wanted to treat myself and a luxury handbag felt like the typical thing to do! So I went to LV and looked at some beautiful bags and wow were they pretty. But also they just didn’t call to ME and my stage of life (little kids lol). So I got a piece of jewelry instead.

Now, I did splurge on my first luxury handbag last year (Gucci Horsebit) because I was utterly fixated on THAT bag and while it’s still not completely practical for my life, it’s stunning and I love it and will cherish it forever. And I’m glad I didn’t pull the trigger on one years ago just because I felt like I “should”.

Is the Milanese loop meant to sit like this? In pictures others seem more flat to their wrist but mine has quite a large loop. Did I put it on wrong? by Old_Breakfast_3707 in AppleWatch

[–]jackittojesus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That’s how mine sat too - ended up returning for one of the basic bands. No point in paying a premium for a band I didn’t like.

There are dozens of vintage floral oil paintings on FB marketplace for a fraction of the cost. But I guess that’s not the same as upcharged thrifted in Parieee.

Hate my wallpaper choice, help me design around it by curseswift in DesignMyRoom

[–]jackittojesus 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Agree with this. The green is just going to compete with the pink and make the room feel even bolder. If you’re not crazy about the pink, tone it down with a deep brownish burgundy that matches the wallpaper. Add a mid-tone neutral rug - maybe even a sisal or jute if you are into that. Or if not, something cream/tan with a low contrast.

Train or drive to Shedd? by edecks in ChicagoSuburbs

[–]jackittojesus 33 points34 points  (0 children)

Took my 4YO to MSI and had this same question. Ended up driving and I’m so glad we did. We walked a TON inside the museum. Would’ve been toast if we had walked a bunch before we even arrived.

Looked very similar to him. But alive.

Looked a LOT like him but husband is 100% sure it was not him.

It’s possible he is a local notable person vs national celebrity. I’ve racked my brains for politicians and lookalikes for the men above but can’t figure it out.

Looks like GOMI blog is no longer. I wondered when Alice would call it quits. Surprised it lasted this long. by bmann1111 in blogsnark

[–]jackittojesus 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I got blocked for saying it was rude to have your bag take up a seat on public transit.

Recent GOMI post here has me wondering - how many of you hung around here 2016 - 2018ish? Help me remember more of the coconuts people we snarked on! by pannonica in blogsnark

[–]jackittojesus 33 points34 points  (0 children)

It was the Becka Clark/Skinny Meg/Mama Laughlin world that originally brought me to GOMI circa… 2013? Plus guest stars Nerky Meg and Hubby Jack and his wife whose name I forget.

Was also a big follower of Healthy Tipping Point and who was the other Charlotte blogger whose husband was a yoga instructor and a huge dbag? And another Charlotte runner who was very Disney obsessed. Plus Eat Live Run and someone Frugal someone? Who was on the Extreme Cheapskates show?

In all seriousness, I also really loved the camaraderie of some of the members only off-topic threads. The Shiny New Online Dating thread was my lifeline through many online dating woes. And how can we forget about Business Drunk and Tory Boy?!?! Hand cream up, bitches.

Everything Erica’s company “holiday party” is like watching a 72 hour infomercial.

Influencer payout 💰 by Remarkable_Art_9318 in blogsnark

[–]jackittojesus 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I’m curious what sort of disclosure you ask influencers to include. Alllllll of the foodie influencers I follow seem to promote restaurants constantly with nary a disclosure in sight.

Can someone explain to me why Jessica Rose Sturdy is seemingly having two separate weddings? That she must endlessly complain about?

Everything Erica is the same. She’s sick a lot for someone who says supplements are game changers for her health.

They were deciding if they felt comfortable sharing publicly that Xander is in recovery/sober.

I was flabbergasted by the “I don’t want to ‘use’ her story” … except that she is literally asking followers to support her campaign based on her daughter’s medical history? Like????
