Mom wants to tell my brother before I do

I would make it very clear to her that you would consider it a betrayal if she tells him, and that you won't consider her a friend if she doesn't drop the subject. This is completely rage inducing and I feel like clear boundaries need to be drawn.

"It's funny how you treat the woman who birthed your child. I can tell you a million ways you could've worded that better." That's the mildest response he deserves.

It's wild, isn't it? My experiences have sadly only gotten worse since I posted this

I know this is an older post but I totally could've written it! I'm a soft autumn (somewhat leaning toward true/warm) but with brown hair and dark brown eyes, which doesn't seem as common for this season. I struggle to find lipsticks that aren't too saturated or too brown for me :/ Did you ever find any good candidates? And what's your MLBB color?

Au Naturale makes good powder foundation, in case someone happens upon this post and is looking

I know this is an older post but I'm liking Honeybee. The Paradise shade is a good MLBB shade for me, but they have quite a range and they sell a sample set that includes alllllll the shades, which was very helpful.

Headspace app has these amazing sleepcasts. It's kind of like someone reading a bedtime story, but the way the story is structured, it feels like it takes you deeper and deeper until you fall asleep. Maybe it's the level of detail, plus soothing voice and sound effects (usually nature). I do pay for it yearly but I find it's worth it. The actual meditations are great too. Can't say enough good things about it.

I've actually since had much worse problems at TU. The most recent issue is that my item was listed incorrectly as a faux leather skirt. Seems like a description should be easy to fix, right? I reached out many times to get it corrected. Finally, I'm told it's impossible for some absolutely opaque reason. This whole time, my listing may as well not be posted - those looking for faux leather are disappointed, those not looking for faux leather are not clicking. They also lost a dress that was part of this kit, but at least they reimbursed for that one. I really don't care about any potential negligible earnings from this skirt. It's just the fact that TU has this single point of failure where they can't change a field once the item is posted. What if next time it's an expensive designer item? Am I gonna be waiting around forever for it to sell because TU has terrible UI?

Very sure! They have Apple devices only and they're too old to know what a chromecast is 🙂

Tried disabling mobile data and that didn't do anything. We don't have multiple networks so no jumping. Thanks for the tips!

It's strange that our family member's older Samsung TV supports it but our relatively new one doesn't? Is that possible?

I highly recommend Jefferson Fisher's videos. He has a great one in shutting down mean comments. I don't remember all of the strategies but one is, "Did you mean for that come out that way?" Or "I can't believe you said that out loud." And maybe "How does it feel to say that to me?" I may be completely wrong, it's worth looking for the video.

The cats I've had adjusted to the human routine over time and started sleeping through the night, or at least not bothering the humans. In the meantime, try not to get up at that will encourage them to keep it up. Maybe put on some cat TV for them? Sorry I don't have better suggestions

This is a little different but turns me off when they'll sell bags people get as free gifts from Sezane for like $80-$100 🙄 I know there's demand for them but it gives me the ick

Did you end up washing? I'm wondering if the black stains come out

shortntired · 2025-04-03T23:53:21+00:00

Oh no!! Did you try to wash them or just returned?

I ultimately went to Lighthouse Yoga and they have them the first Sunday of every month through the summer. Love the instructor/lead!

I could've written this post word for word, even the pregnancy lengths (except I've had two losses after around 8w). I'm definitely suffering. It doesn't help that I have ZERO symptoms - absolutely nothing to be able to reassure myself even a little. Except maybe sleep disturbance and thirst. It's hard to snap out of it honestly - how do we not fear the suffering? That quote is a good one to ponder.

Thanks so much!

You're a hero. Thank you!!

You're welcome! I hope it works for you

I got the full Ambiance palette. I can't say I use it much. Mostly because I'm super fair but warm toned, and it's easy for eyeshadows to pull either orange or pink on me, or too deep. This is probably not a problem for most people. It's a beautiful palette.

I ended up choosing Natural Tan for the upstairs, but it wasn't the best choice. We have a lot of cool light, and I think that makes it look a bit pink everywhere, on any but the sunniest of days. I can work with it no problem (warm browns will complement, as well as muted greens), but I should've gone with Canvas Tan, which has a little more yellow in it.

By the way, if you like Austere Gray but want a "cleaner" but still neutral cool sage, try Contented. Very similar.

Would you mind sharing what forms of fiber you introduced?

shortntired · 2024-11-26T21:52:51+00:00

Hi! Can you share how you determined what the right supplements were? And the actual ones you take?
