I have an aversion to people touching my feet as well.

That's a long day at work.

'Still unwinding from my life'...I relate to that, una.

I also hate manicures and pedicures, though for me, it's mostly that the smell of nearly all nail polish gives me a headache, sometimes a migraine (so I also avoid hair salons that do them now). I think the only time I had them done professionally was, like Scarlet, for my wedding. I used to polish my toenails sometimes in the summer and would just do so outside to avoid the smell being as strong, but I've gotten away from that, too. I know there are a few brands of nail polish that are more natural, so I may need to try one of them because it is nice looking at my toenails in pretty colors. Manicures are a waste because I seem to mess them up almost immediately.
Thanks for this!

I was rushed to the er Monday night for vomiting and migraine. CT showed no sign of stroke. But they never checked my vomiting and heartburn. My oral surgeon took me off my antibiotic and pain med in case it was too strong on an empty stomach. The otc pain meds are working, but I still have horrible heartburn. Saw a doctor today and she’s putting me on an acid reducer. She said if that doesn’t work for a few weeks, I need to see a gastro.

Life is kicking my butt right now with everything. I’m struggling in all aspects of my life.

Oh, that sounds scary, Scarlet, I'm sorry. Gentle hugs. I hope the acid reducer helps you.
Thanks for this!

I hope the acid reducer does it job. I get really intense nauseating heartburn as well but I’m slowly figuring out I just can’t eat anything I like then I don’t get heartburn.

My husband and I don’t really talk anymore. I guess you can call it like an emotional separation if that’s a thing? Like he still lives here but we were fighting about something and I told him that he’s only here to pay half the bills and I don’t need him to do that and he can leave at any time. He’s walking around here all high and mighty because he made a small repair to the backyard fence so I essentially brought him back to earth with the statement that I don’t need anyone to split the bills with.
