i've used freecycle several times and it was great when i had a car! i don't use it anymore because it's hard to coordinate pickup of many things without one. my roommates and i periodically have a free-box out in front of our house. i've found some great stuff in others' free-boxes as well :)
i agree! i think my first time at the oregon country fair was the most nudity i'd ever seen in one place. it is truly amazing to see the vast array of human bodies, when not controlled by the beauty industry. everyone looks so different. i think it's when we keep bodies a mystery (except the...
i grew up in southern california and have never had any sort of air conditioner, but here are a few non-air conditioner cooling down tips. :) i'm sure people have other ones as well...
- identify spots where you can direct air through the house with fans
- keep blinds closed during the morning...
there is a pair of shoes at a local vintage store that i've been hemming and hawing over buying.
for my wedding.
at this point, it bears mentioning that my boyfriend and i have been together a MONTH. :eusa_doh:
vintage overalls are my holy grail - i've never found a pair in my size, in 10 years of looking... except one pair i missed on ebay by $5!!! i think making them is the way to go. i have a pattern (bought on ebay) and a pair that has been half-finished for years now (i outgrew them before i...

well ladies, it's been almost a week since i started my drastic sugar cut-back and i feel GREAT. i've been eating healthier snacks and pretty normal meals, have been cooking for myself more, and since i've had so little coffee (i'm a mocha girl, which are definitely on my...
yeah, i'd love to fit in a vintage size 14!! but even at my heaviest, i haven't ever worn a modern 14.
i had plastic surgery (breast reduction - yeah it's more easily justifiable than a lot of surgeries, but it IS cosmetic) while i was nannying a 2.5 year old. everyone was totally up front...
update: i've been super busy and so i haven't gone shopping yet! i did research all the suggestions online and have a list to take with me. i'm going this week - possibly tomorrow! i'm VERY excited. thanks for helping me make an education decision! i really didn't want to go to the store, pick...
you mean, someone who's a human and not a robot? i would agree with you on that ;)
i'm a terminal klutz and terribly absentminded. i'm sure i've had many moments like these... but i think i've blocked them out! :p
unfortunately some of us live with relatives, roommates, or partners who are total enablers. someone ALWAYS has something junky in my house, and is willing to share at the drop of a hat. still, it's not nearly as bad as when i lived with my ex-girlfriend -- she worked at trader joes and brought...
