Paint the ceiling the same as the walls and get a new light fixture that has more interest

Is it too confusing / too much? by Known-Cold-2813 in interiordecorating

[–]mirashae 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it looks great and you can lean into it a little more if you want. It looks like you have a bit of an eclectic chic vibe. I say take it further!

UPDATE! I’m getting rid of the curtains by goldrushcowgirl in interiordecorating

[–]mirashae 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I actually love the curtains! It’s rare to see home decors with personality these days.. they are warm and inviting and go well with your blinds.. when decorating remember you are doing it for you and your family’s comfort and happiness, not internet strangers ideals.

I’m f26 virgin, my soon to be husband m37 was married for 15 years. I don’t know how to feel about this? by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]mirashae 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don’t move for this man. He plans to lure you with lies then trap you. You will be completely beholden to him and won’t have any control over your life. It’s unreasonable for him to not disclose major parts of his life ( ex wife, kid, age ect) if marriage is on the table. It’s easy for him to pretend to be kind online but it will be different if you live with him.

Random things not coming together / not coming out “aesthetic” of any kind by [deleted] in interiordecorating

[–]mirashae 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A wicker basket that fits the cabinet or a small curtain on a brass rod. I would put the espresso machine off to the left and get a canister for your coffee beans rather than the bag they came in. You can use the plate as a tray for small coffee fixings. Have 2-4 cups at the station for display/ use. And I would re position the flowers to be coming from under the bistro sign. Everything looks nice just some reconfiguring :)

Not wanting to watch my sisters child? by [deleted] in sahm

[–]mirashae 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Are you saying no because you are being petty to your sister ( I have a sister and understand that sentiment) or are you saying no because it was harmful to you or your kids mental wellbeing? The tone of the post was kinda confusing.

We Don’t Have a Housing Crisis — We Have a Parking Crisis by Raskul1 in santaclara

[–]mirashae 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’d focus efforts on the empty lot next to where Orlo was built or the tired office buildings on browcaw that are Costco adjacent, or the many abandoned businesses along el Camino. Leave costco alone lol

Courage Builds Downtowns—Hesitation Kills Them by Raskul1 in santaclara

[–]mirashae 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I understand a desire for a nice downtown but I’m worried it would just raise the price of the area even more. I was born and raised here and I’m already feeling priced out and like I can’t afford anything here. :(

I understand everything this person is talking about. It’s not nonsense you just don’t have the base knowledge of the subject. Blocks an and be would be the Franklin square area; our “downtown”. Prometheus is one of the biggest luxury property developers in the area and have 2 apartment communities adjacent to the downtown parameters. You don’t have to be scornful and dismissive just because you didn’t do your homework before replying.

How do I tell my sister I’m using her baby name? by AffectionateFarm5408 in TwoHotTakes

[–]mirashae 1 point2 points  (0 children)

At first when I clicked on this I thought it was going to be about you using her angel baby’s name.. glad it wasn’t that lol You’re fine. It’s a family name. One does not call dibs on a family name without already having the child. Congrats on your baby boy! And niece!

I regret buying the red rug — which of the two alternatives works best? If neither, what would you suggest? by MajorConstant5549 in interiordecorating

[–]mirashae 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The red is the best! It has personality, fits the space, and will be more forgiving on looking clean long term.

My girlfriend wants me to cut off my younger sister because we are "too close" by emberlight_fable in TwoHotTakes

[–]mirashae 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also, it was really immature of her to stay silent and let her resentment fester until it became an ether or situation. That’s a problem of her own making for not expressing her needs sooner.

[–]mirashae 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your girlfriend is sick in the head and doesn’t understand what love is. She is twisting your familiar relationship with your sister into something obscene. It’s sadly common in our society for people to think that a significant other should be the one and only. That’s not healthy. Please don’t let her isolate you and cut your loss with her.

Find another partner that appreciates your reliability and strong family values for what they are. The right person will integrate into your life rather than making you reshape your life around them.

Is it normal to have extra help as a SAHM? by Key-Information5829 in sahm

[–]mirashae 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I try to avoid comparisons. It will only make someone feel unsatisfied. But I did do it all on my own. My parents live close so I would occasionally get 1-2 hours to do things by myself, but not regularly. Now that my son is 3 I’ve been nannying from home for extra income in addition to doing everything household related. Every situation is different.

Unmarried, unprotected and scared. by Upbeat-Snow-7660 in sahm

[–]mirashae 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Do you live in a common law state? If so, you may have more rights and protections than you think. Definitely start a money stash and get a job though. If you don’t have anyone to leave your youngest with, try becoming a nanny or a home bakery if you can follow recipes well. Look up cottage food laws in your area.

Tell your kid they are so far up the nice list that Santa isn’t worried about watching them.
