So I love the fall drop colours. I will be getting at least one item but I'm struggling so much to not go ahead and buy more ahh. Here is what I want and reasons for why/why not.

- Wild Plum Small Cloud Carry-On: Recently went on some trips and realized I don't have a weekend bag or even a decent carryon. I am also going to teachers college soon and this might be a good work bag

- Sunflower Medium Crescent: I have two crescents (seafoam and cypress) so like... why do I need another? I just love yellow so much. I could sell my Cypress crescent because I'm not really reaching for it... In the past little while I've also been like well I should have a brown crescent because it goes with more but the sunflower is just so fun

- Wild Plum Nylon Shoulder bag: This is the most "wellll... do I need it?" bag. The colour is gorg and my favourite bag is the shoulder bag. Like, I use my bay laurel shoulder bag most days so like, I already have one and for some reason multiple crescent bags doesn't feel as silly as multiple shoulder bags. But the colour is beautiful and I'm like oh the outfits hehe

Sos I want bags

Also I have a Large Nylon Sling in seaweed I never use... I could try and sell it? Idk how popular it'll be to sell tho.

When selling, do you guys wash the bags first? I've never washed one lmao (I probably should, my seafoam has some spill on the outside of it)

I live with a couple of roommates and we’ve lived together for over a year so far. One roommate has a lovely little orange cat who I love and who would come in my room and lay on me or in my bed a lot. Like, if I came home from work he was waiting in my bed.

Recently I’ve noticed he’s always lying in a different roommate’s bed. Not the owner, a different roommate. I think I’m feeling some jealousy and frustration but I know a lot of it is still pent up frustration from some mental health stuff I’ve had to deal with recently.

I don’t understand the change… my room is just as messy as it always is. He preferred my room last summer, maybe because of my fan (it is cooler downstairs but my room is very cool because of my fan setup). So is temperature really at play?

I think I’m also a bit like… other roommate used to shoo him away from her room but now is fine with him in there I guess because lets be real, being chosen by a cat is a special feeling (no matter how much she says she hates the cat)

I guess I’m scared he sensed my mental health went to shit for a little bit and now doesn’t want to be around me and my overly-sensitive self is like… has he left me too like the other people around me I’ve lost connections with during this mental health stuff

I don’t know… i think i want reassurance that it’s not me and he’s just a cat

Maybe my door was closed more than I realized when I was going through it? I’m gonna try and keep it open more but yea, I’m just bummed

I’ll be going to school in September. Right now I’ve been at a before and after school care program/ daycare for about two years but I want to leave this job for a few reasons. I know they wouldn’t be ecstatic about me leaving unexpectedly before our summer camp starts.

When I become a teacher - how much are they looking at these kinds of references versus practicum references? I’ve been a good employee at my current workplace but I worry about feelings about me leaving earlier than expected clouding potential good references… I don’t know!

Basically, how much weight do you think references from my current position would hold with future employers?

I love these but can't find them in nearby stores to try on.

I'm a size W9 in almost all shoes (W9.5 sometimes but depends on the shoe)

My feet grew from a W8-8.5 to a W9 about 2 years ago. I am generally a 9 in crocs.

I have the crush sandal in size 9 and it was too big so I did have to shrink them with my blowdryer. Wondering if these fit similarly and should I size down?

Photos are:

note i did try on the brooklyn low wedge and gataway strappy yesterday in size 9 and those fit well.
