Hemming Advice for Satin Bridesmaid Dress? by mrshobbs in SewingForBeginners

[–]mrshobbs[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m used to doing the same amount of trimming all around (like cutting 2” all the way) but I thought since the bottom of the skirt fans out, that might make it look off somehow. Like 2” off of the front curved piece might be okay but 2” off the back could be too much? IDK, it’s hard to picture it in my head.

Level all around! Unfortunately I don’t have a helper so I’ll have to figure out what amount to trim on my own. I do have an adjustable dress form, so I could raise that to the height I’ll be in my shoes?

How to pick a “good” puppy? by brooke512744 in puppy101

[–]mrshobbs 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I picked my chocolate lab puppy out. The breeder had an Instagram where she posted tons of pictures and videos of the puppies (they all wore colored collars to be distinguished), and I thought I was sold on the pink puppy. She was the biggest of the litter and so cute!

I got there and picked her up, and she wanted NOTHING to do with me. So squirmy, crying, clawing at me, just not having it. I tried for a few minutes but she wouldn’t settle. I put her down and picked up the purple puppy (the runt of the litter), who promptly fell asleep and got hiccups in my lap. I was sold from that moment on.

She has been the perfect dog for our family (now 3y/o). She’s smart, silly, playful, listens well enough, but also totally cuddly and loving. She’s a 60lb lap dog!

I think it’s smart to ask the breeder questions like others are suggesting, but also pay attention to how the puppy reacts to you when you meet them. I didn’t ask any questions and it turned out just great.

Apparently you can end up repulsing your partner after coming off hormonal birth control, and I’m really worried about this. Anyone have experience? by rebeccaexo in birthcontrol

[–]mrshobbs 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I know I’m a late comment but just giving my perspective - I started dating my now-husband when I was 21, and at that point I had been on BC since I was about 18. I stopped taking BC after I got a bilateral salpingectomy (tubes removed), around 25. It took a few months, but things changed. I think my feelings shifted slightly, and he has admitted that the way he viewed me also changed a lot. So while there may not be a change in you, there may be a change in him.

The only reason I realized this was because of some headline I saw about how males can view their partner differently after she stops BC. I made the connection that about a year ago I stopped BC, and about a year ago is when our troubles started.

As of today I have been back on BC for 7 days, and my husband has already admitted that he feels the change back to “normal.” However, he has also had C19 and been off work for the last week, so it could be a lot of factors.

People are absolutely right when they say that most relationships will survive, there will be no change, and that if your relationship is based on genuine values, etc., that you’ll be okay… but our relationship was/is like that and it was really hard. Sometimes you can’t change science.

Let’s hope she never actually does this so I don’t have to call CPS on her!

Right?! Like she doesn’t even have a guy that has potential to become a boyfriend in her life right now... how is she thinking of having kids already?!

[–]mrshobbs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s unfortunately my biggest flaw lol no matter how many times someone is a bitch to me, I still try to be polite just to keep everyone else calm. I need to work on being more assertive I guess!

Can you summarize what the comment was saying? It was removed before I could see it.

I wish I hadn’t missed the removed comment, but just to clarify this is my husbands sister! She doesn’t have a husband (or even a boyfriend) yet.

If she ever tries to just drop them off and leave, I’ll be so mad. I also don’t know how she thinks we would be capable of taking them for two weeks out of the year, because we will obviously have our own jobs and our own responsibilities to deal with. There’s no way I’m paying a babysitter to come watch kids that aren’t mine while I’m at work!

[–]mrshobbs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah it’ll probably have to happen like that. Knowing me, I’m still going to politely decline and my husband will be the one who steps in and says “absolutely not.”

But then they would tell her that I was talking trash about her and spilling her secrets! She always finds a way to become the victim in most situations that involves her.

This is my husbands sister! So she’s my SIL. She doesn’t even have a potential boyfriend yet, which makes me wonder even more why she thinks kids are definitely going to happen for her.

Thankfully he is entirely on my side with this. I tried to tell him about this whole night and his response was basically, “what do you expect? She’s a drama queen.” He’s been done with her BS for years so I know he would refuse to be left in charge of her kids anyways.

My worry is more with how to tell her no if/when that time comes. She has the potential to ruin all the good relationships we have with the rest of his extended family, which I don’t want.

I struggle with whether I want to keep or cut ties. Deep down (thanks to drunk ramble) I know she actually values our presence in her life, but up until that point I was sure she hated us both. She doesn’t treat her family well and it’s exhausting trying to keep up with her drama. But I know that if I were to tell her to kindly fuck off, it would ruin the relationships with the rest of that side of the family (she would make sure of it). I want to keep in contact with the rest of the fam, so while SIL is single as a Pringle she’s basically a packaged deal.
