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.

Ok, great! Good to know. Dogs are heading downstairs now. 🤣 I will be insisting that the dogs hang in the basement all day!
IRL friend (who is a snake lover, and would happily remove a snake for me) just stopped by, and we did a quick check of the couch and anyplace our tweens will be hanging down there. All clear. The rest of the basement, including the unfinished storage area … we will never find a snake who chooses to hide!
And just to reiterate … snake friendly house here, we would just take it outside, but I am totally not up for snake friends popping up when not expected!
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.

Give me a break. This attitude is, frankly, a huge part of what ails our society. So you're going to avoid all adversity and keep your kids in a bubble because PTSD? That's totally unhealthy, unrealistic, and is creating a generation of whining victims.
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.

Did you watch the video? The child wasn't even upset, just decided not to do an activity that seemed to annoy another person. Hearing an adult say "That's annoying. That's aggravating" in a loud voice, not even directed at the child, is not going to traumatize anyone.
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.

You must not think that children are very resilient.
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.

It depends I think. If I were single because of divorce, no. If I were widowed, maaaayyyybbbbbeeeee
Just curious - why the different answers depending on how you became single?

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...

I did not have sex with my husband before marriage and I have no regrets about that. I think actually not having that on the table as something to be concerned about before marriage helped us get to know each other better before we got married. And we did make out a lot, so it wasn't like it was going from no physical contact to sex. There's a lot on the way to sex and I am glad we explored that first.
I was going to say that I assume most couple do that, but then realized that maybe they don't!

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.
