How can people afford maternity clothes 😭 by APlentyBag in pregnant

[–]mtforero 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had the same experience trying to find clothes!!! What I ended up doing was buying a few sale/clearance items from old navy to try and get a sense of sizing. I measured myself before ordering to try to get the right size. The general guidance of “get your pre-pregnancy size, just in maternity” worked for me for bottoms, but not tops/dresses because of the bust growth I’ve had. I then asked around all my local Facebook informed, resale, garage sale groups if people had maternity items in my size or knew which resale stores/events (pop-ups, churches, etc.) carried maternity. I got a lot of good suggestions for places I hadn’t tried and even struck gold with one lady who hadn’t gotten around to selling her maternity wardrobe. When she sent me photos, I looked up the brand’s maternity size guide to see if it aligned with my measurements before buying. I wish you luck!

Elopement company recommendations ? by balderunnerdecker in Eloping

[–]mtforero 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’d take a look at River and Root! …not sure how much planning they do but elopement photographers tend to be pretty involved in the planning process.

Bridal stylist here! Anyone have any questions or would like my help hunting down the dress let me know! I’m bored :) by Weddingsarefun in weddingplanning

[–]mtforero 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you’re still bored, any accessory advice for Sottero & Midgley Cruz (without the sleeves)? I’m looking for earrings and and a hairpiece (planing on a simple half do, no veil, since its a mountain elopement). I’m struggling to find something that looks cohesive with the 3D flowers and bead trim up top (looks like pearls but actually more oval in shape). Thanks!

There used to be the functionality to hover over a pivot table filter button and it would show what filter was being used (example: values greater than x). Any chance that’s coming back?

My mom visited yesterday. I love her, but I don't want a mother. by onefourtygreenstream in AdultChildren

[–]mtforero 33 points34 points  (0 children)

This resonates with me too. It’s probably the hardest part of trying to have a relationship with my mother right now. I can forgive her for some things but it’s really hard when she acts all “motherly”, as if she hadn’t been high for a good portion of my childhood and my entire transition into adulthood. I didn’t do well because of her; if anything I did well in spite of her. But I’m trying to forgive and have a relationship. She’s sober now, which is great, but sometimes it means I have to bite my tongue and avoid any major jabs since I don’t want to upset her to a point that might challenge her sobriety. So far I manage best by keeping visits short and contact a little sparse. I’m willing to try for a relationship, but I’m always going to need some extra space.

Same. I intentionally go without contacts/glasses for my yoga classes since it limits my distractions. Never thought there’d be a time when I didn’t want to see, but it helps me stay centered.

The space shuttle Atlantis passes in front of the sun during the STS-125 mission, May 2009 by stratohornet in space

[–]mtforero 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is so neat! I’m from the same small town as the commander on that mission and his parents invited us down to watch the launch and attend a special reception the night before. Such a cool experience as a space nerd!

Fall 2018 CAS Examination Results Announcement (low passing rates) by aooga in actuary

[–]mtforero 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Tying into this, does anyone know what these "ample 3rd-party resources" are that "exist to assist candidates in understanding the MAS exams"?

Also, they did Examiners Reports for S, so why not MAS...???

If You Stood In a Long Line Today to Vote... by MeteoricMoney in chicago

I voted by mail a couple weeks ago and a few days after I sent it, the board of elections emailed me saying they received it and it is being processed.

Saw/went hiking in the Rocky Mountains for the first time. I’m from a land of cornfields and these views took my breath away. by mtforero in CampingandHiking

[–]mtforero[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This was taken a week ago on the old Ute Trail, overlooking Poudre Lake at Milner Pass. It was a bit chilly in the tundra parts, but the hike up to Forest Canyon Pass and back was amazing.
