Is FF down for everyone? Grr.

ashaislurking · April 2020

@legallykate I follow them on twitter. They're having server issues. It's down for everyone.

emeraldduchess · April 2020

@legallykate yup! Tried to put in my bbt this AM and it was being a butthead. That's right, I said butthead. I'm feeling particularly juvenile this morning.

legallykate · April 2020

@ashaislurking Ahh good call, I didn't think to look at twitter. @emeraldduchess Butthead is accurate

I'm debating if I can pull off cropped cheetah-print leggings under a black swing dress. I already own the dress, and the leggings are in my online cart right now. Quarantine shopping is full of questionable choices.

gingermama29 · April 2020

@legallykate it was down for me this morning but seems to be up and working now.

emeraldduchess · April 2020

How I feel finding toilet paper at the store.

My birthday is coming up and Facebook had that notice about starting a fundraiser in honor of my birthday. I looked to see if Resolve was on the list for nonprofits and now all my sponsored/suggested posts are at-home progesterone tests and books to finally get pregnant. Dammit Facebook!

emeraldduchess · April 2020

@inthewoods23 Facebook seriously knows how to punch us in the gut, doesn't it?

Hi all, just popping on here to tell you all I'm still alive, just horrendously horrifically busy. We literally cannot get masks for our essential employees at work, so my work bestie and I decided to just buy fabric and sew some ourselves. We're each making 200 face masks, so it's literally taking all of my time. I was cutting out lining fabric last night until 9pm. I'll try to get back on here soon, hopefully I can make a production line of these things and get them done quickly!!!

@inthewoods23 If you want to permanently stop seeing ads like that (at least like 95% of the time), you can right click on the upper right of the post, in the settings, and pitch a fit about it. I've done that several times. Basically mark them as inappropriate for you and let loose about why. Puts an end to shyte like that!

@mtv2003 Woah! 200 is a lot. Good luck to you and props to you!

inthewoods23 · April 2020

@capnjackharkness I should. One of the books, I'm pretty sure, is all about changing your mindset and that's how you'll finally get pregnant. Stupid. Might only apply to those with an unexplained diagnosis though.

emeraldduchess · April 2020

@mvt2003 wow!! Thank you for stepping up to help out essential workers!

linzrunz · April 2020

@mvt2003 wow you are awesome! We miss you!

whitealbum29 · April 2020

@mvt2003 Wow that's so great! Good luck!

asf0613 · April 2020

late to the party here but @mvt2003 that is amazing that you're taking matters into your own hands. make sure to find some time for yourself too between all this!

asf0613 · April 2020

does anyone have an amazing go-to for allergy relief? ive been getting hit hard this year for some reason. super congested and nonstop sneezing. so between the sneezing and blowing my nose i'm also getting mild headaches. going to the store today to try my luck finding something!

jackie_dunny · April 2020

Hi ladies! I know I like, literally just made a post about staying while NTNP but I have made the decision to leave for now. When we were going to NTNP for a few months it was fine but now that it’s going to be a year+ it just seems silly to be apart of this (although lovely) community if I’m not REALLY apart of it. I’m too worried about offending people and it just doesn’t seem appropriate to me. Thanks to those of you who have reached out to me about staying but it just doesn’t feel right. I’ve lurked this community and TB while participating on the very slow BOTB board and I’ve seen how much hurt drive-bys and the like have caused and I just don’t want to be apart of the hurt, although unintentional. I’m not sure if this post is even necessary because I’ve only been here about 3 weeks but I didn’t just want to ghost. So I’ll go back to lurking in the shadows and rooting you on! I’ll be back but I hope that by the time I return, NONE of you are here (in the best way)!

stillcozy · April 2020

@jackie_dunny hugs wish you the best.

photographerwife · April 2020

@jackie_dunny I hope my comment didn’t make you feel like you needed to rush off. I just wanted to offer another perspective about it. I hope you’ll still pop in. Several “regulars” don’t post regularly, and if you change your mind or status that you’ll join us again!

jackie_dunny · April 2020

@photographerwife no, no! Wasn’t your comment! I just felt weird lol like a fraud. Nothing against people NTNP but I feel like DH are mainly on the NT side of things so it just doesn’t feel right to me. Plus, like you said if we did get KU while NTNP I would feel pretty terrible so yeah it’s all cool lol just not my time yet 🤷🏻‍♀️ maaaybe I’ll still participate in the other threads and not the daily’s.

ashaislurking · April 2020

@jackie_dunny sending you lots of love! I definitely understand where you're coming from and hope that you make the decision that's best for you and come back when you're ready. Until then, lurk to your heart's content.

linzrunz · April 2020

@asf0613 I've had good luck with Claritin. I used to use it when it was by prescription only and always have it on hand just in case. I don't deal with allergies as much anymore now that I live in a different state, but H uses it too and likes it. It's not something that will help right away. It needs to build up in your system so give it a few days and you may need to keep taking it daily until allergy season is over. I hope you find something that helps you!

keikilove · April 2020

@asf0613 I used to have terrible seasonal allergies, but only when I lived in a particular state. The only treatment that worked for me was Alavert D-12: I could only find it at Walgreens, I think, behind the counter. (There’s also Claritin-D that supposedly has the exact same ingredients as Alavert-D, but it didn’t work for me.) Be sure to try it out in the morning first because it may give you a burst of energy that you don’t want to experience at night. I also drank Tonic Water, which helped to calm the itching in my mouth & throat & quieted down there sneezing. Good luck, allergies suck!

keikilove · April 2020

What is up with the random people who post a comment in the stickied “Ultimate TTGP Guide—Newbies, Read This First!” thread?

stillcozy · April 2020

Look someone found a Magic book that is going to help us all get pregnant 😂 see pinned post.

inthewoods23 · April 2020

@stillcozy someone must have marked it as spam because it's gone now!

coldlife2 · April 2020

*Lurker.*

This is happening all over TB and from multiple accounts. Super annoying! Someone must have a lot of time on their hands to create so many accounts.

legallykate · April 2020

FFSC: At this point I would almost try the magic book.

inthewoods23 · April 2020

I reported a number of those posts as spam and my messages from the admin says they don't violate the TOU. My guess is those are in reference to the posts that didn't have a link to the "magical" book

gingermama29 · April 2020

Ugh I'm so irritated by all the spam posts from people that just joined. They really need to reinstate the 3 day wait period

stillcozy · April 2020

I have been saving baked good gifs in particular pie ones to save and huzzah today is the day these glorious things get to see the light! New theory on life don’t engage just gif delightful treats

ashaislurking · April 2020

I didn't get in to the peggy post fast enough for pie!

emeraldduchess · April 2020

@ashaislurking same! I was so disappointed we didn't get to do too many pie gifs!

jackie_dunny · April 2020

*lurking*

Is no one else confused why the drive by thread was closed by a bump admin with the username “rosesareblue” and not an admin username? 😂

ashaislurking · April 2020

@jackie_dunny yeah that admin popped up a little while ago and we were all confused about it.

ashaislurking · April 2020

Reading the board rules without reading the rules of a thread or lurking enough to read the vibe of the board is... Bold?

inthewoods23 · April 2020

Happy Earth Day everybody!

Ugh I miss the refresh button on this app update its back to pages not loading

asf0613 · April 2020

anyone watch the Little Fires Everywhere finale yesterday? How did you like the series compared to the book (if you experienced both)?

i guess answers in spoilers for those who havent watched yet

personally i was disappointed in the way the show altered some of the final events of the book. i felt like it didn't need changing and to have all the kids involved seemed like a stretch, especially with Elena still inside. i think the book did that sequence of events better. However, i really did enjoy the series overall, even though i'm not really a fan of Kerry Washington. (i love Reese though! and Anna Sophia Robb--i didnt know she was going to be in this!)
