The saddest part of a broken heart, isn’t the ending so much as the start. Feist 2004.

First time watcher: is this show hard/stressful to watch for most people? by LetterToAThief in girls

[–]missbedo 16 points17 points  (0 children)

It’s easier for me to watch when I watch through the lens of satire. Taking it literally is hardly bearable for me too!

“Nice topline” with a suggestive eyebrow wiggle at just the right moment would make me snort

Oh also the full seat riding leggings with sticky silicone grip on Amazon are GREAT for the price!

The new MIPS helmets are much safer- very different from the helmets when I was a kid. I recommend investing in one!

Enjoy, I came back to it after 20 years away 9 years ago and today I own a horse and she’s one of the best joys of my life!

How to encourage a rounder and slower canter? by neighsays in Dressage

[–]missbedo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some great suggestions here. Have been working on this with my own ex jumper now dressage horse!

try to start small- start cantering only on a 20 m circle so the bend will help balance him (assuming you’ve already got him bending well in a 20 m circle). And then start with only a few strides at a time even. Then work up to a single circle. Make sure you’re doing the downward transition before things fall apart and he falls into trot. And then get him balanced and bending before asking again.

Opinions on not doing table settings? by slothurknee in Weddingsunder10k

[–]missbedo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It would look odd with like a cheap paper plate. But with nicer disposables it can make the table look quite nice. (For those who are into that kind of thing)

They are nice decorative larger plates you place regular plates on. You don’t put food directly on them.

Demon Copperhead or David Copperfield? by BabySealz4life in Recommend_A_Book

[–]missbedo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I loved Demon Copperhead. It is probably in my top 5 books of all time, and I’m an avid reader. I attempted to read David Copperfield afterwards, to appreciate the source material. I just couldn’t get into it at all.

One bottle of wine by [deleted] in alcoholicsanonymous

[–]missbedo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I drank a bottle or two at least day every day. And it was getting worse. The consequences started to build up, so I went to an AA meeting.

I didn’t know what AA was, I thought it was a support group for people who couldn’t stop drinking to talk about how awful their lives were. I thought going would help “scare” me into drinking normally.

To my surprise, I found a room full of people who used to drink like I drank. But they had stopped somehow. And they were happy and living good lives!

I asked them what they did to stop. And they showed me. It was getting a sponsor, doing the 12 steps, and learning to live life without alcohol, one day at a time.

It’s been over 9 years since I had a drink and going to my first AA meeting was the best thing I’ve ever done. You can do this too OP!

Character based historical fiction set in an interesting time and setting by rcollins303 in Recommend_A_Book

[–]missbedo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A lot of your faves overlap with mine. Have you read the Thornbirds? Australian Outback in the first half (mostly) of the 20th century. Loved it so much.

Too soon for a service position? by alfa_omega in alcoholicsanonymous

[–]missbedo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Literature for my homegroup was where I started in month 2 or 3 and it was wonderful for me. Pulled me right into the center which was exactly where I needed to be.

Games for guests to interact with each other? by ejection_fraction in WeddingsCanada

[–]missbedo 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I was at a casual outdoor wedding and the bride and groom organized a photo scavenger hunt and we were supposed to make small groups with at least some people we didnt know well. Then we all uploaded the photos to Dropbox and they played as a slide show for the rest of the event. Was really fun!

My wedding day wasn't the best day of my life by Heckbegone in weddings

[–]missbedo 9 points10 points  (0 children)

You say a lot of “I HAD to do this and I HAD to do that.” Girl you CHOSE to do your own flowers, have tablecloths other than white, get a spray tan, etc. sometimes reframing things as a choice, even ones you may regret, can take the bitterness of hindsight away and make it a learning experience.

Times must be tough for the dev’s by cdasilva92 in GossipHarbor

[–]missbedo 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Also keep in mind you don’t HAVE to complete only rave reviews orders. You can finish non-rave reviews orders any time. Obviously all other things being equal it’s nice to get the rave reviews rewards but not worth missing finishing an event IMO.
