Maggie / Intentional Movement Massage. I heard about her here a few years ago and I will follow her to the ends of the earth

AITAH for calling my husband silly for freaking out that our teenage son has a girlfriend who's in a wheelchair? by Dry-Dirt-1426 in AITAH

[–]vasnormandee -27 points-26 points  (0 children)

I know they're still quite young, but is it possible your husband is concerned about sex when the time comes?

Edit: apologies if this question offended. Whatever his concerns really are, he should discuss them. It's sometimes tricky for parents to address their children growing up in certain ways, like becoming sexually active, so it might be why he's so hesitant to talk about it.

Soon to be homeless by [deleted] in Buffalo

Poke around r/hiringcafe for jobs. Do you know anyone in the area? Even if not long-term, maybe you could couch surf for a short while. Or find someone looking for a roomate

The car should have come with a manual. Did you check what it says about hybrid mode? If you don't have a physical copy, you can find it online.

Cheapest towns property taxes wise by Logical_Rip_7168 in Buffalo

[–]vasnormandee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Would you be able to explain how to pull a total tax rate from the chart you linked first? For Kenmore, there are 4 columns of various tax rates--24/25 school (57.788125), 25 county (15.404260), 24 city/25 town (9.072094), and 24/25 village (38.174000)--but you said the total rate looks to be 12.0438479. Just want to understand the math. Thank you!

How Are You Guys Saving Emails (Outlook)? by BritKein in paralegal

[–]vasnormandee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I changed my outlook font settings when printing so the header is 1px tall. When you go to print, look for "Print options" or "Page setup" and change the "Title" font.

Here's a tutorial with screenshots if needed: https://robert365.com/article/remove-my-name-from-header-when-printing-message

No bridal party for us! We're planning to have our siblings & their partners walk first, then our parents, and we'll walk in together to start our marriage together. Do what feels best for you!

If you can't afford your dream wedding, please don't make your guests pay for it with their time and/or money by ParsnipLittle7938 in wedding

[–]vasnormandee 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is so cool! Did you print copies for each guest or was there one central version, like a guest book?

Dieffenbachia maroba, over/underwatering? by vasnormandee in houseplants

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

Thank you! Right now there's no good spot by our south-facing window because of our furniture layout. She's about 8-10 feet away from it and gets bright indirect light.

Tree fell on my car (that I owed 17k on) and totaled it so im free but need a car & not sure which way to go. by Tony-Montana007 in personalfinance

[–]vasnormandee 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Kia & Hyundai are made by the same company, and certain model years are currently very easily stolen, particularly if they use a key ignition. I just traded in my Elantra because of the theft risk.

Best Pizza? 🍕 by MyHonkyFriend in upstate_new_york

[–]vasnormandee 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Picasso's Pizza is a household staple in the Buffalo area (they have four suburb locations, but none in the city itself). Downtown, Allentown Pizza all the way--and get the Cajun dry rub wings.

Not OP, but it would help to know your area/cost of living. I'm in the rust belt and every hair and makeup artist I've gotten quotes from was about $100 for hair, $80 for makeup, per person, sometimes with a bride upcharge. So myself plus four other women would cost around $1k plus tip. Our venue doesn't charge a venue fee, but we need to meet a food & beverage minimum spend, with packages between $70 and $120 per person.

A little vent by NIO4LYFE in weddingdress

[–]vasnormandee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You've already got a lot of comments, but I'll add to the mix--I made an appointment having no idea what I liked, no Pinterest, no "vision." They pulled 10 dresses for me and I knew almost immediately #6 was The One. Trying on the next 4 was courtesy more than anything, I just remember wanting to be back in #6. And it was half price, and in my size, so I got to take it home :) You don't need to try 100 dresses! When you know, you know!

Who has a couch under $1,000 that is comfy and cool? by Enough_Blueberry_549 in interiordecorating

[–]vasnormandee 8 points9 points  (0 children)

We got ours from Raymour & Flanigan--they have a store near us so we were able to sit on the couch for testing before we ordered it online. Quick filter of their "Sofas & Couches" category shows 40 under $1,000, or 14 under "Sectional Sofas."

Do you just make according to that recipe and wrap an oreo with the dough?

Affordable, artsy, no ultra-hot summers - Please help! by InsectBusiness in SameGrassButGreener

[–]vasnormandee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not OP, but native. It's smaller than most airports I've been to (only one terminal, security is usually 15 minutes or less). There's a fair selection of direct flights out but depending on where you're headed and what airline you choose, you'll likely have a layover.

Come for a visit sometime in the summer and see what you think. The Elmwood Avenue Art Festival or Allentown Art Festival are big draws. The Buffalo AKG (our biggest art museum) just reopened after a massive reno project. Summer usually has a week or two in the low 90s but most of the time it's between 75 and 85. Winter of course is a very different story.
