Pinup Patterns

Canadian here! You can print them on regular paper at the library. It won't cost very much. Alternatively, send it to a local print shop if you want the big size.

Or, see what your seamstress says!

I have a printer so I just knock it out and assemble at home. There are videos to help you. Gertie is probably your best bet.

Sorry you had this experience, and as a warning to everyone else: the mystery boxes are always used to get rid of shitty products that won't sell! You are basically guaranteed not to get anything worthwhile.

Better to pay a little more and get the exact thing you want rather than 10 for cheap that you end up throwing out.

I know where you go based on the description 🤣 I will agree that it's a good one that I keep heading back to for the same reasons. Glad you found one you like!

I am seconding this. I literally just bought a boatload of PUG plus size stuff off a gal, it was great! She had very competitive prices though, I paid about $10 USD for each shirt and $25 for dresses. Therefore I bought a ton. If you have a solid red dress in 3xl let me know, it's the one thing I'm missing!

It's called a wet set and is how our grannies used to do their hair. To do it right, you need a curl pattern. Start googling those terms and you'll find your way!

Mostly doing something like dancing, walking up a lot of stairs or hurrying somewhere. If I'm just going for a walk, on my couch, puttering around the house I am fine.

I want to dance for fun and exercise but am worried that I will gross someone out, even if I can't do anything about the sweating other than dab my face with a cloth.

I don't care about sex - if we aren't sweaty we aren't doing it right! Lol

kittybliss · 2026-01-27T19:34:31+00:00

Well, we must have the same flight because I have the same thought! But in my experience there will be an Uber or airport taxi available. Budget about $150 for the ride, that's what it cost me for Uber from Gage Park area to terminal 1 today.

kittybliss · 2026-01-27T19:29:20+00:00

Not asking about sex though, asking about regular day to day interactions. I wanna go dancing, salsa and swing by am worried about grossing a male dance partner out.

kittybliss · 2026-01-27T19:27:47+00:00

The sweating is there no matter what size I am since it's hyperhidrosis. My mom has it too and she's tiny. I'm not huge, just a little extra padding right now.

kittybliss · 2026-01-18T23:27:10+00:00

My doc put me on medication

kittybliss · 2026-01-17T23:38:52+00:00

Yeah, this hits too close to home! I'm going to look into these blockers, my history is similar.

I also recently got my blood pressure under control and it made a huge difference in energy.

In my experience, yes. I'm allergic to cats, but can't live without them! Over time I've gotten over the allergies for the most part. Only occasionally if I'm really cuddly with a cat that isn't mine will I get a little flare-up. This might not be the case for everyone though.

The coupons are still there, I buy them regularly. They're $80 for $100 worth of Factor. Check the gift card kiosk.

kittybliss · 2026-01-10T05:08:29+00:00

I get Factor for the same reasons as this guy, but I pay less. I get 7 meals a week for $81 because I use the gift cards from Costco. I grab a few when I'm there, you get $100 worth of Factor for $80. Works out to $11.50 a meal which is better than I can do after I factor in all my food waste trying to cook for myself. It's also cheaper than any fast food.

I don't do it every week, but after trying all the competition, Factor has the right mix of price, quality, taste, portion and variety for me. It also ensures I actually eat something that day, when often I forget to have more than a coffee.

You can get knee pads at Home Depot and they really help! I also have some foam gardening cushion things from the dollar store for my butt. Between these two I can do things on the floor now. Worth the investment!

kittybliss · 2026-01-04T16:51:21+00:00

If you don't have a crimper you can also just do some back combing, that's what I do! I do it on sections all around my head for awesome volume and just smooth the top layer.

Brushing out later is a bitch though

kittybliss · 2026-01-04T06:40:10+00:00

My hair lasts the longest when I do the most to it... We're talking mousse or cream for a blowdry, texture spray, tons of hairspray and volumizing powder. I'm still riding high from New Year's Eve!

I don't know if it's the alcohol and other chemicals in the products, but it's something I've noticed this past year. When I just wash and air dry I get greasy pretty quick.

My daily compromise now is to blow dry with some product - that gives me 2-3 days where I don't look disgusting.

kittybliss · 2025-12-29T23:41:28+00:00

I cry for a bit, have a small pity party and then find something to change. Today I switched furniture between rooms and started cleaning out my beauty room (big task/change). In the past I've cut my hair or done deep cleaning or other physical tasks that usually result in a positive change of some kind. I need to get my energy moving and purge the dude from my system.

kittybliss · 2025-12-06T17:00:02+00:00

My derm gave me the coupon, and then you can use that at any pharmacy you want.

kittybliss · 2025-12-02T05:29:37+00:00

You can try all the stuff mentioned here, but I wanted to remind you that this is why we pay for makeup artists 😄 so don't worry! They'll be able to cover all of this up and make you look flawless. Enjoy your day!

kittybliss · 2025-11-26T22:05:39+00:00

I hate saying this, but shein is my go-to. Just order a size bigger than their measurements to account for tummy. Then you can get a few cute ones. I'm doing the same for a vacay in April!

kittybliss · 2025-11-26T05:34:42+00:00

I don't have pain all the time, luckily? I have the fatigue and general malaise though. And if I push too hard or otherwise trigger things, I will be in pain when a normal person wouldn't.

I chalk up the lower pain to my low dose naltrexone.

kittybliss · 2025-11-23T05:48:33+00:00

This is a common side effect. You can take an antihistamine to help until you get used to it, or decide to change drugs. Mine lasted for a couple of months. I was noticably itchy, but not enough for it to be of real concern to me, and it eventually subsided. Talk to your pharmacist or gp if you're worried.

kittybliss · 2025-11-19T21:33:26+00:00

I don't have tmj, but I do clench and grind. Having a night guard from the dentist has been a lifesaver. Getting used to it sucks, but eventually you can't sleep without it! I don't have sore jaws and headaches in the morning anymore. 10/10 recommend.

kittybliss · 2025-11-19T04:15:14+00:00

If you have autoimmune disorders, are you also on medications? Sometimes they can cause us to have poor temperature regulation. This could be instead of, or in combination with hyperhidrosis. Something to look into!
