    All that seems pretty good and mild! They will likely keep an eye on the regurgitation, but I don't expect they'd need to do anything further now.

    We use generic Zyrtec from BJ's and I can only take half or it makes me too sleepy. It works well though.

    I use Native deodorant. DD12 previously used Native, but it didn't quite cut it with pre-teen smell, so she's currently using Dove. DH and DS18 use Dove. We used Schmidt's previously, but it caused irritation.

    I agree with your DH. I think it was for insurance payment purposes.

    DH wakes up faster and requires less sleep. He brings me coffee every morning. By the time I've finished the cup, I feel almost human and am able to hold a conversation.

    If you think they will attack the snake, I wouldn't do this. They might get hurt.

    You expect your teens to plan and prepare their own healthy meals, including ordering and paying? This is bizarre. I know full grown adults who don't do all these things on top of working a full day (school is a full time job!)

    My only homeschooled kid, DD 12, needs pretty much constant interaction, which has gotten much "worse" now that we have moved into a fantastic neighborhood with lots of kids her age.

    Thanks for the replies, everyone! That's what I thought. 🙂

    I am wondering if it's typical for daily meds to continue being given during hospice care, or if that up to the individual/family?

    She's an adult. I would work very hard to have the kind of relationship with her where she has no reason to lie to you at all. (ETA: Asking questions you already know the answer to is a big no!)

    I'm impressed that you have enough kids in your Sunday School program to need ID or wristbands or stickers! Ours is so small - we all know exactly who goes with each child.

    Um, no. I literally have 2 children who have PTSD and when they were younger we were told over and over again that children are resilient and they would be fine. They are not fine. My kids are far from kept in a bubble. They know more about the world than they should. And my children/young adults aren't whining victims...thank you very much.

    This is bizarre.

    I was responding to the comment about kids being resilient. We often say they are, but they really aren't as much as we think or hope. I don't think this kid was traumatized, but that wasn't my point.
  16. hippymamato3
    That resiliency often ends up later being PTSD.

    My husband once told me that all the things I perceive as flaws are things he loves because I'm his forever. I am a far more flawed, difficult person than he is, so I try to emulate him.

    We use Weruva food mostly.

    scissors, tape, pen

    Just curious - why the different answers depending on how you became single?
  22. hippymamato3
    No. There was no one worse than my first husband and there is no one better than my second. I'd live with those memories and make a life not surrounding marriage if it came to that.

    Any reason why you'd have to do 5 days? You can have a pretty awesome time going just 1-2 days and spend some time at a beach the other days...
  24. hippymamato3
    I was going to say that I assume most couple do that, but then realized that maybe they don't!
  25. hippymamato3
    Nothing wrong with that!
