Literally 100% of this is going on my Wishlist.

I was thinking of going to church and lighting a candle, or maybe taking a hike some where pretty. I dug out a bunch of pictures of her to show my husband and it made me feel better.

No offense at all. Thanks!

Thanks for your honest answer! I’m sorry if I upset you with my questions though. You have a unique perspective on the topic so I was curious. I hope you and your uncle both make it through this ordeal soon <3

My grandma died really suddenly this week. To make things worse I just had major surgery on my inner ear and couldnt fly. I went to my other grandparents funerals who treated me like shit and ended up writing me out of their will but the grandma who loved me and was proud of me I couldnt go to say goodbye. I feel so…

I know I’m grey, so not many will see this, but for once the color is appropriate. I want to wear this grey/silver dress to a wedding. Is it too close to white to be appropriate? Help! I live in fear of accidentally making people hate me! (sorry if picture is big...)

I think he needs more than you can offer. Do you maybe know a therapist to whom you can gently refer him, I guess probably via your mother or grandmother? This sounds beyond nephew-level support to me, and also apparently he’s not talking to you about it anyway, which is just as well. You’ve got enough on your plate.

Ok, that was an unexpected turn.

I wrote a couple weeks ago about being super depressed after breaking my leg and having surgery and not being able to walk and stuff. I’m happy to say that I am feeling a bit better! I went out both evenings last weekend....with friends to a BBQ and then to the lake, then dinner and a couple drinks out. Doing some…

Order a club soda, pretend it’s a gin and tonic and act slightly drunk.

You’re making a little progress. At least you were able to get out of the house today.

Every spring, I try on a long, flowy, bohemian peasant dress. And every year I don’t buy one because it’s too expensive, and I’m not sure it won’t look stupid on my very short, stocky frame. I tried one on today, and as I was hemming and hawing over it, the salesgirl shook her head and said, “no, not for you.” She…

It will take time, but it will get better. Hugs, again.

I worked for 10 hours today with some of the most useless coworkers ever (HOW IS IT PHYSICALLY POSSIBLE TO TAKE 10 MINUTES TO MAKE ONE FUCKING CAPPUCCINO) and we were short staffed and I wanted to murder everything.

Ugh. That sucks. It sounds like you’ve done everything you can yourself, and they are ignoring you, which is a dick move on their part. It’s time to get management involved. A lot of places have a “three strikes and your out” policy, so if management knows they are causing you problems, hopefully they will take care…

You’ve done everything civil that you can. Next step in my book is to go to management. Explain to them that you’ve tried to handle it yourself but to no avail.

Hang in there, Mindy!

I need advice regarding a noisy neighbor.

Week two of the blood clot. The swelling in my calf and foot is down, but my thigh is as big as ever. I found out that my Busia’s dad died of a pulmonary embolism. All of this time, I was blaming the genetic disorder on my Dziadzia, but with this new info, now I don’t know who to blame and it sucks! Busia felt guilty…

Keep trying different brands until you find one that fits you best! Women’s clothes (I’m assuming you’re a woman, I’m sorry if you’re not) have bullshit arbitrary sizes that can differ a LOT from brand to brand.
