@wildflowerchild25, Are you OK in terms of the horrible flooding in our home state? My husband and I were looking and the whole area we used to live in is under water. Definitely a state of emergency. Wishing you and your family well.

@Innerzone, I hope you recover from that bad fall, quickly. That sounds like a scary one!

@~Christina, perhaps the Rexulti will help end your disturbing hallucinations. If most are musical, if the new AP doesn't work, I wonder if an anticonvulsant moodstabilizer would, for you? As I wrote before, one did for me.

A portion of the area where I used to live in NJ was under water because of Ida. If we still lived there, we would have been stuck at home. Maybe still. They say 25 people have died in that area from the flooding. I just emailed my sister to ask how she and my brother are doing. Both areas have many waterways (rivers, streams, canal).

Hubby and I have been spending so much money on groceries, lately. Today we submitted another HUGE order. The biggest portion is for mineral water and alcoholic beverages. Hubby is not a problem drinker, but he drinks it regularly. Perhaps the overall price is still less than in NJ, but it doesn't seem so since alcohol here in CZ can be purchased at grocery stores. In NJ, though some grocers are beginning to sell it, it's more the exception than the rule. NJ mostly has liquor stores, so grocery expenditures are usually split from liquor.

Next Thursday I'm going for a hair color consultation at a different salon than before. The first stylist didn't know what she was doing with my curly hair. Thursday is just a consultation, at which time I'll also schedule a hair cut and the coloring itself. I want to lighten my hair a little and get rid of the auburn hue. I am not naturally auburn. My hair was light golden brown most of my life. It did darken over time, though. Now, my roots are medium brown with gray mixed in. If the new place also has no hair diffuser, I'll just ask them to leave it wet, so I can let it air dry or diffuse it at home. The last time I left looking like a "before" picture for anti-frizz hair products. The last stylist seemed to cut it like a 10 year old cuts a Barbie's hair.
