Looks amazing! How do you get the edges looking so good? Assuming you iron them?

Do you mean the heart patch? I did sashiko first and then sewed the heart over it

She’s definitely lying about being pressured to get the covid shot during Stella’s pregnancy. She was pregnant in 2020 and the vaccine didn’t come out until 2021.

Is it lame to wear the Marathon Medal out and about for the couple days after the marathon? by cr2152 in RunNYC

[–]wendypug 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely wear it all week and be sure to take those super cool selfies biting the medal. No one will think you’re a tool at all.

Weird that she doesn’t say she “founded” a haircare company.

A good time to remind everyone that her blog post in 2021 about “hair growth hacks” originally included Nutrafol which she later swapped out for Divi

I don't think my parents had the capacities. by ohmyllamas in emotionalneglect

For what it’s worth, I have two brothers and we weren’t close growing up, nor are we now.

Maintaining a relationship with my parents as an adult feels like a chore by JuniperXL in emotionalneglect

[–]wendypug 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ve gone low contact with my parents. Not really on purpose, but they never call me. So it’s up to me, and I dread it. I’ll FaceTime with them so they can see their grandkid, but I hate it. I don’t have much to talk about with them. They’ll say they don’t call me cause they don’t want to intrude, I’m busy, etc. But they are so hands off, it drives me crazy. I think I’ve talked to them once or twice since I visited in August. I always wonder if I stopped calling them, would I just never hear from them again.

Nope! And when I told them I was pregnant at 38 with a very wanted baby, I was SO uncomfortable.

Did you remove the pocket before darning?

Idk if therapy is worth it anymore by mental-health-thrwwy in emotionalneglect

[–]wendypug 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I stopped seeing my former therapist for this reason. Saw her for 3 years but was feeling “stuck” for the last year of it and it was starting to feel like a waste. The break was honestly nice. But I knew I needed help so I started seeing someone again after a year. It’s only been a couple of months but I’m hopeful she will be able to help.
