So anyone coveting any particular color for a possible new spring/summer bag? I’m still thinking cobalt/sapphire since House mentioned it. Now it just needs to be released. [emoji14]
You must have been so proud of these amazing women for keeping their heads up high and pushing through. That is resilience and determination. I couldn’t imagine studying or working under those conditions.They were the kind of women who were very stoic and simply kept pushing ahead. They talked about it afterwards, though. This was over 25 years ago, but still absolutely horrible. Some very noted scholars said this stuff, too.
Wow! All the birth stories were amazing. I was about to respond to each one, but I might get kicked off for flooding the thread (more than I am already!).I loved reading them all.
I have to comment and hug
@Syren , @Sarah03 , @eleanors36, @Alexa5 and anyone else ever on the receiving end of hurtful words for having no children, not enough or too many children. We all have reasons for our choices or lack of choices, and I hope mean people will stay out of your way. Some questions are too personal to ask. You never know what someone is going through. I lost my first baby before I told everyone; so only a few knew. Everyone else kept asking what was taking so long because they knew or assumed correctly that I wanted children someday and the clock was ticking. It was painful even to hear what a fun mom they thought I would be. I didn't know if I could even have one. All of you be proud for sticking with what you know is the right choice. Anyone here who cannot have children and wants to, I send a special hug to you too. This was my agony once upon a time. Surround yourself with goodhearted people.
It's important to love the lives we have right now. I wish I could go back in time and tell my younger self all of this!

Omg. What is up with these crusty men thinking women cannot be successful or have amazing jobs and opportunities?!My cousin and my mentor were told at Harvard that they were taking fellowships away from men.

I love hearing everyone’s wishlist for Spring bags! [emoji7]
I’ve realized most of my work bags are all Fall and Winter colors haha Although that won’t stop me from using them in the warmer months!
My mother faced a lot of this as well, so to me, my mother and cousin really showed me how to hold my head high and keep going. I owe them a LOT!You must have been so proud of these amazing women for keeping their heads up high and pushing through. That is resilience and determination.

Me too! I don't have many bright colors. I wish I could find a bright green (of course).Same! My bags are all dark colors. The only “bright” color would be red.
