They usually have a pretty good selection at any drugstore.

Amazon (and google in general) has made library rats of us all! Its the same as rooting thru the old card catalogues. But different. How did we SURVIVE in previous decades??!!

Yeah at one point, i was keeping two separate trays, one for scrips, one for supplements (which are sometimes HUGE!). The scrips i filled monthly (4 rows of 7), the supplements every two weeks (two rows of 7).

I started this after watching my mom confuse HER pills. She was like, "well if there is an even or odd number left in the bottle, that means i did or didnt take it today." Honestly my head exploded!

Started my therapy homework. I think sometimes the first step (getting started) is the hardest! Dr. K wants me to journal about what makes me depressed and what makes me feel better when I am depressed. I'm giving myself bonus points already because I didn't say, "I don't know!"

SlumberKitty · May 04, 2021 at 03:02 PM

I don't know why T's like homework so much. Pastor T used to give me like 4 assignments in a week. It was way too much homework.

Anyone have the Dyson Corrale hair straightener? Is it really worth $500? I know Dyson is good but dang.

For $500 I want a stylist to come do my hair everyday.

That sounds like a case of "the cure is worse than the disease." My nose burned just reading that. Pretty sure it would clear you out though!

Yeah, I've never heard of it but I can pretty confidently say it isn't worth $500.

Yeah, that's what I think. I was thinking about getting one for my sister, because I saw it advertised on TV and it looked pretty cool. Then I looked it up on the website and my jaw dropped. Sheesh. That's a lot for a straightener.

For that much, it should Roomba for you too.

This is why I switched all my meds to extended release and night time. I kept forgetting to take certain ones or missed certain times. Now I keept them in a bag next to my bed and take them all when I sleep. The prn's are also there just not in a bag. It's great taking them mostly at night not just so I can remember them, but also because I skip all the nasty side effects (i.e. dizziness, stomachache, etc.).

LonesomeTonight · May 04, 2021 at 04:27 PM

Pretty much anything Dyson is ridiculously expensive. The vacuums are good, but haven't tried any other product from them because difficult to justify the price

This is my dream pool.

I would imagine a cloth mask in a swimming pool would restrict breathing when it became wet and plastered to one’s face. It also wouldn’t filter very well.

Speaking as one with naturally curly hair, hair straighteners...bah. Curls are better.

I really want one of those Dyson fans that don't have blades because they seem like they'd be a whole lot easier to keep clean. My fans get so dusty! The price always stops me from getting one though.

Yes, the fans have intrigued me, too!

Me too! Then it turned out, a few years later, that one of my meds started recommending to take it at night, not the morning. I was like, aha i was right, wheres my medal?!

Also my dr was like, but prozac is supposed to rev you up, not put you to sleep! Im like, then why do i need a nap after i take it?

Hoping to make some Ethiopian Dabo bread tonight and take some to a friend who just graduated with her B.A.
