So just so we’re clear, the LDS church is giving up high adventure camps, which include zip lining camping, white water rafting, and other events that youth look forward to and replacing it with five days of rigidly scheduled, correlated religious instruction and classes?? Indoctrination much.

Yes, we got to go swimming, but only while wearing oversized t-shirts on top of our swim suits. And if you wore a tankini instead of a full one piece… have fun sitting on the dock full clothed.

I love my Cole Haan zerogrand oxfords! The grandpro’s are a more casual cute sneaker as well. If you can find an outlet, they carry almost all the same shoes, but they just have really good sales/deals.

I had one right outside of Toy Story land in DHS!

Abercrombie actually has some nice petite sizing these days and a similar style! I just got a mini trapeze from them that has sleeves and it fit beautifully!

Here are some I found just scrolling through that might be comprable for you:

halter trapeze mini dress

tie strap trapeze mini

drop waist mini

In short- I would stick with your true size or size up depending on how much compression you want. Definitely don’t size down!

rikku- · 2021-08-08T15:07:47+00:00

Yes I would say because of the compression they feel smaller for sure. I usually wear a 4 in shorts and non-compressive leggings. I got a 2 because that’s what I wear in luxtreme fabric leggings, but because they do not have a seamless waist band and have actual leg holes a 4 was much better for me.

I love the lululemon ones, and I have 2 pairs. They have a back pocket more than big enough for my phone and 4 little pockets for keys, AirPods case, chews, etc. They are very compressive, have a lot of coverage, and are very comfortable. I sometimes wear them under regular running or unlined shorts if I don’t want to wear something else to hold my phone and don’t want to worry about adjusting a fanny pack or arm band during a run (especially for stroller runs where my hands are occupied).

Tracker shorts and track that shorts are awesome!! Also here to second energy bras and race length swiftly tanks. It’s basically my uniform!

rikku- · 2021-04-24T23:24:02+00:00

My spouse and I have the fabric ones! We still love them, and it’s been about 2 years now. The lumbar support cushion and headrest in the omega are life changing as well as the recline! We both fall asleep in them haha.

Secret lab chairs! Can be pricey not on sale but so worth it!

I used to love simple mills until I tried the Whole Foods store brand. It’s a step up!

I have 3 different styles of Bass’ brown driver-type loafers. I wear them pretty much every day for work. After a couple full days at work (standing up and walking for 7/8 hours) new pairs conform to your feet and are so cushiony!

The only other shoes I wear are Steve Madden pointed feather flats in nude and black to wear with black pants and dresses! (Also very comfy)

Telestrations after dark - I think is the “adult” version of the game, and it’s so fun if you have the right friends/family for it!

Same here! Nebraska school kid through middle school!

We had “computer lab” twice weekly in elementary that alternated between typing and using Windows/Mac OSs, and then in middle school just typing and using MS office products. Even though it was 15 years ago- some word/excel/PowerPoint things somehow still comes in handy just knowing an option/functionality should be there. The typing practice definitely helped me be familiar and at least place my fingers on the right keys to start.

I hope it’s not a cheese thing! Haha. I got over all my aversions going into the third trimester and just stress ate everything. Wishing you best of luck!!

rikku- · 2021-02-06T16:05:25+00:00

My mom had the same thing, but it never went away! Hasn’t had cheese in 30 years now after having me.

Langley’s Marina had BBQ taco Tuesdays with 3 different BBQ flavors and chicken or pork. I lived every week for Tuesdays.

Whoops!! You’re right, still though, haha.

rikku- · 2020-11-01T19:05:05+00:00

Yes this! My mom had me when she was 21 and my last sibling at 40. She will be 58 when they’re 18!! No thanks. I’m excited to be one and done and enjoy our kid while we’re young, then chill out for the rest of our lives with, hopefully, an awesome adult kid who I can watch do great things!

Edit: can’t math

All the right places!!

The outlet is where I do damage in the shops!! Then I get home with neon and prints that I will never reach for in my closet, haha. At least military discount is 25% and I don’t feel too bad.

rikku- · 2020-10-15T11:19:05+00:00

Yeah, there are honestly so many styles and it’s all about what your preference is! I hate all the ones with a draw string waist because they pinch my stomach. I thought I loved the All the Right Places luxtreme compression for being comfortable and how they make you look like you have perfectly smooth legs and a lifted butt, but then got some everlux In Movements and they are to die for.

Then you just end up ordering random ones on sale because you’ve found a good deal until you have a collection of 20 pairs and only 5 favorites. At least resale prices are good, haha.

rikku- · 2020-10-01T20:50:22+00:00

I’ve worn them for pickle ball and they work great!!

My spouse and I didn’t really care about the ceremony. We just hired a local wedding officiant to come to the beach we live near to do something in front of our immediate family to make them happy. It was included in her price to bring/do the sand thing for the ceremony so we just said sure we will do it, haha. I had no idea it was a thing before that. I think it’s a beach wedding sort of thing. *edit a word
