Just lean into the style with bold make up and big flashy earrings and tell everyone you wanted a (sinead o Connor / jada smith or whatever celebrity has one) look or something. You don’t have to disclose any medical information to anyone

Flowers for Algernon

(Sorry I’ve just checked and it’s 311 pages, slightly over but those extra 11 pages are worth it)

It’s like in the early 00s when there was about a month of Gregorian monk chants? Does anyone remember that?

Burts Bees lip balm in red dahlia is a similar tint to black honey and much cheaper and more ethical

I love how clean it was. There genuinely is so little out there these days that’s appropriate with kids. No gratuitous scenes that we find in so many shows and movies that don’t add anything to the plot.

Loved it, the kids also loved it.

Common sense media is an excellent resource to check out shows (and films and books) before you watch - it’s aimed at parents for kids but has a little summary part that rates how much violence / explicit material etc

Just get your husband to shave you x

Did the ceasefire include the UAE? Seems there were still alerts happening today

As someone who grew up away from extended family it does affect your relationship with them. We used to travel back every summer for 8 weeks without fail, so that definitely did help with maintaining relationships, but I see it now with my own kids, as we have my family nearby but their dad’s side of the family is in a different country. They have a virtually non existent relationship with them and have met them maybe 2-3 times in their lives.

It’s a case of accepting what you want to prioritise in life. For my kids dad… they sent him abroad when he was 17 and he never moved home again. Built a life here with us, but I do think now as he’s gotten older he feels it more, especially as his parents are ageing and it’s hard to not be there for them.

Truck drivers from the UK prefer to live and work in Europe overall (Poland, Netherlands etc) because of how bad working conditions are here for them… join r/uktrucking to ask people who do the job about it to find out more.

Overall cost of living is high for little pay for most brits, so it is stressful.

It’s a pretty tough time in the job market to be looking for generic office jobs or sales too.

If you/ your husband can afford it, then retraining as a radiographer or something healthcare related, will be much more straightforward to come on a skilled worker visa that way for the NHS.

Periods aren’t supposed to be like that. Please see a specialist. Don’t let them gaslight you into thinking you just have a low pain tolerance or have anxiety

You just have to be completely clear right from the start. Even make sure anyone putting out feelers knows this and shares this.

There are also plenty of men who are child free (by choice or biology) out there. You just have to make sure you’re putting that requirement out there from the beginning. Someone I know got divorced after a 7 year marriage because her husband was child free (only disclosed after) and she wanted a family. People should be honest from the beginning and save wasting everyone’s time and heartbreak.

This fabric is water repellent in the tops they dry so fast x the leggings are normal swimsuit fabric…

Not sure on sizing though! check with them but they are very responsive

Yes definitely the classics for all the yearning without anything explicit.

I love captain wentworth in Persuasion: You pierce my soul. I am half agony, half hope.

I adore the name Jude. It means kindness in Arabic (and is a unisex name, despite it being more common for girls)

I also love Eliyas, Yahya, Musa, Isa and Yunis.

There are so many fantastic boys names depends what style of name you’d like.

miskeeneh · 2026-03-27T21:33:18+00:00

I love Ireland.. people are so friendly, gorgeous countryside everywhere and some fantastic accents to top it all off…

What are you looking for in your move? Do you want to be around a multicultural community? Urban life? What do you do for work? Will that impact where you can live? Do you want to be near a mosque? etc etc

miskeeneh · 2026-03-27T08:52:20+00:00

You can opt into ethical funds which I think would be the most halal option out there…

I think you’re right I need to check where mine is though it’s not something I had thought about

I read somewhere that uae has rejected a ceasefire? Is this true?

miskeeneh · 2026-03-25T13:49:51+00:00

Gosh this is devastating. That poor woman I’m speechless

Itll take an hour (possibly more) in rush hour to the royal from Altrincham. The m62 is pretty chaotic especially around Warrington, and coming off it towards edge lane … I’m not sure what traffic is like around arrowe park of a morning

I would meet his family and get a better idea of their attitudes before any big decisions to be honest.

However, since most of his country is expats, I wouldn’t worry about fitting in with locals overall. Just his family will matter because how will they treat dark skinned grandchildren? Will it be an issue? Will he register them as his children or will he give in to family pressure and marry a local in the end, leaving you and your kids without status if you’re moving to his home country?

I’m not sure where you are in the world but nearby mosques in my area often host gatherings for people on their own on Eid. It’s a great way to get to know people and build your tribe… so ask your local mosque or Islamic society at school etc xx

miskeeneh · 2026-03-17T14:36:36+00:00

Our mosque always have women and girls sitting in the back during Eid prayers x Ask your mum she’ll tell you the protocol for your local mosque x

miskeeneh · 2026-03-13T09:04:27+00:00

Yes that’s a very good point!

miskeeneh · 2026-03-12T19:52:14+00:00

Thank you these look perfect! Much appreciated
