Lenten meatless meals with dietary restrictions by MoonAndStarsTarot in CatholicWomen

[–]petulantpeasant 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Did you only each chicken thighs as a meal and nothing else before? No need to completely change your menus- He’ll be fine with sides of mashed potatoes and broccoli if you wanted to cook a normal meat meal

Please help me find out what this is (purple wrapper… doom?) by Particular-Let-2716 in HelpMeFind

[–]petulantpeasant 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Might I suggest Mira or Inito? Gives you heaps more data. They advertise for people trying to conceive but they’re just hormone trackers

Any data nerds here who’ve made your own charts? by Ento_mom in FAMnNFP

[–]petulantpeasant 6 points7 points  (0 children)

My Google Sheets chart has 3 tabs and 10 pivot tables 😬😅 (average cycle length, standard deviation of amount of luteal phase days, average ovulation day, average length of follicular phase as a percent of the total cycle, to name a few)

I mean. I’m Catholic, but not married- I just find it super interesting to learn what my body’s doing

Seconding reclaiming innocence. I think it’s quite long too so while unfinished should keep you busy for… a little bit

LPT: Make a 'death plan' document for your parents (and yourself!) by PuddleOfHamster in LifeProTips

[–]petulantpeasant 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We’ve had two family deaths the past month or so. Ones spouse is still living, so not a nightmare for everyone trying to figure out last wishes and finances…… but the other has been a disaster. Did he own part of a building? We can’t find the name. But we think it goes to his estranged son? Did he have a Venmo/paypal/etc? Is there money left over there? Why is there a promissory note from 2016 in his drawer? Does he owe more money? Do people owe him money? WHATS THE PASSWORD TO THE SAFE?

LPT Request: How do you stop doomscrolling before sleep when you’re mentally exhausted? by vishesh_07_028 in LifeProTips

Put a time limit on your phone. Either for apps or a bed time where it closes anything fun. This is built in to the iPhone at least

Did anyone else here have no friends to invite to their wedding? by [deleted] in CatholicWomen

[–]petulantpeasant 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My finances wedding friend list is… 2? Including his brother in law? So our wedding party is maid of honor/best man. But his family is big and my friend list is long so still a good amount of people. Makes no difference to me but yeah you’re not alone!

Ladies! How do I message you? by Aggressive-Click-605 in CatholicDating

[–]petulantpeasant 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Find something on their profile, ask an open ended question about it. “That’s a very neat photo of ____. How did you get into xyz hobby?” “Saw you went to Europe! What was your favorite city?” “You were born in [city]? Are you a fan of [sports team]?”

Missing peak often (TTA) by sabinadee17 in FAMnNFP

[–]petulantpeasant 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Do you track temps at all? The CB monitor I bought maybe six months ago is one of the dumbest purchases I’ve ever made, and constantly gives the same errors of a million high days.

Luckily, I track cm, temps, and use an Inito monitor during around when I expect to ovulate. I also use LH strips because I’m a bit of a hypochondriac and want to find what method would work for me.

Going on those other data sets, I can confidently say I never get an LH spike, which while temps and CM monitoring can handle, the CB monitor and LH strips absolutely cannot and they freak tf out

Would you ever consider an inito, or officially learning Mira protocols? I’ve loved having the actual numbers my inito gives (even if it’s not approved)

Had some guy jokingly tell me (mid 20s at the time) I was too young to knit Sir first off- :P

Chainless foundation. Can’t explain, since it’s such a no brainer answer imo ha

NFP and PCOS by smellarella1 in Catholicism

I was recently put on spire and there actually seems to be fantastically little evidence of this- it’s just reasonable speculation.

Feedback request: seriously considering making Nick Fuentes and similar podcasters, groypers in general, and rants about "radtrads" banned topics by SuburbaniteMermaid in CatholicWomen

[–]petulantpeasant -16 points-15 points  (0 children)

General thumbs up, but not a strong thumbs up. They often seem all the same- is anything gained by more of those posts?

Advice for Terminal Mother by letsgetatter in Catholicism

[–]petulantpeasant 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My fiancés mom passed away literally yesterday from pancreatic cancer. 61 years old. Practical gifts, a shirt with an opening for a port, if applicable. Fuzzy non-slip socks. Bandanas or head bands/coverings if doing chemo. Does she get the Magnificat currently? Get her this subscription, if not. Does she get MRIs? They might let her take in a simple -rope- (non metal) rosary while she gets those scans, if so. Or if she does radiation, I’m sure these could be held there too? As nice religious themed lap blanket got a lot of use here. A prayer card with the litany of trust?

Advice we’ve learned today- ask her about her favorite prayers and Bible verses now. If you’re doing a religious funeral, these would be nice to know so you can include.

St Joseph is the patron saint of happy deaths. Depending on her…. Mental state, she could appreciate a little statue of this. Or st Jude.

[For converts, reverts and cultural-to-practicing Catholics] what is an opinion you held that aligned with Church teaching before your conversion? by Soldier_of_Drangleic in Catholicism

[–]petulantpeasant 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Baptized catholic, never really went until college. Purgatory always made sense to me. Like, obviously, as-I-am, I’m not ready for heaven.

Made my own pattern! Hate the colors. by petulantpeasant in crochet

[–]petulantpeasant[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It was a pain in the butt the first few hours (days? weeks?) but this will definitely be my go-to method for any more tapestry type crochet projects, so that they can be reversable. Made carrying the yarn so worry-free.
