  1. @hellen Awesome information…thank you so much!! Dealing with bathroom stuff is my biggest worry right now. I assume my dad will use a taller potty chair at first? Regarding a bidet, I will talk with them about it. Funny side note, I have a bidet at my house. Back in 2020 my dh severed both of his bicep tendons 😳. We had like two days to plan for surgery and the first thing I did was to have a bidet installed. Saved my marriage!
  2. Good ideas! I will contact the social worker today to talk about home health. It is tiring to care for someone on this situation. I have been running back and forth between the hospital (30+ minutes away) and my parents’ house (15 minutes away in the opposite direction), while trying to work and take care of my house and my own family (youngest is 16…thank goodness). I sit at the hospital, but it just wears me out. How is sitting so tiring??
  3. My dad is 79 years old and had emergency bypass surgery last Monday. He has been progressing well in the hospital and is set to be discharged on Wednesday. My dad lives with my mom in a one-story ranch home. My dad has always been fairly active, but my mom has some medical issues (her balance is very off - she seems so feeble). My brother and I have been splitting our time at the hospital. Now that we know the discharge date, I’m starting to think of what we need to do and how we should prepare. Fortunately I work from home, so I should be able to work from my parents’ house some. My brother is a business owner, so while he is busy, he is also in charge of his own schedule. Thoughts on how we should be preparing? Anything we should make sure to have at their house? Any tips or tricks?
  4. Dh and I both have Chase cards but my email address is used as the contact info for both. I get Chase emails all the time and have no idea if they are intended for dh or me, because they don’t put our names in the email. I would definitely look up Chase customer service number and call them.
  5. There is a widespread cellular outage across the US. AT&T seems to be the provider most affected and I read that Verizon says their customers aren’t affected directly. https://www.nbcnews.com/news/amp/rcna139938
  6. No cell service here. Although I did receive a text from my dd recently and I was able to respond. I have AT&T service, which seems to be the most affected. I am also curious to know what’s going on!!
  7. Yes, thank you!! I’m going to place an order for some too. I do have one additional question. I have purchased a high quality retinol that I use at night and vitamin c for daytime. Should I be using either of these near my eyes? If.l not, what do you use around your eyes? Thank you!!
  8. We celebrate our 25th anniversary this November and I would like to do something special. For our 20th, we went to Vegas which was fun, but really more his idea of a vacation. I’d like to go on a cruise or even just vacation somewhere warm, but no definite plans yet.
  9. My 19 yo ds is coming over and bringing his girlfriend. Dh will be here too. We are having wings, some type of taco dip (I’d like to make a dip with ground beef if anyone has suggestions?), veggies with dip, and jalepeno poppers. I may also put some chicken tenders in the air fryer. I’m looking forward to it. This will only be the second time that ds girlfriend has been over. She is a sweet girl and I am glad to get to know her better.
  10. Perfect! I just started using a retinol and I ordered the vitamin c you recommended. Did you say what brand of sunscreen you use? I have some neutrogena that I’ve been using, but not sure what to look for in a daily facial sunscreen.
  11. I did the same!!! I have a question, when using vitamin c, sunscreen, and moisturizer in the morning, what is the order for application?
  12. Can you share a bit more about your routine? For the tretinoin, is this prescription? I recently purchased a retinol from the esthetician that waxes/tints my eyebrows (I haven’t used her for anything else yet). It was expensive and I keep hearing about tretinoin. Is it a better option (the brand of retinol that I bought is SkinMedica)? Can you tell me more about Vitamin C serum? What brand? The SkinMedica one that was recommended to me was $$$ so I didn’t buy. I am intrigued by the Jones Road makeup and will check it out.
  13. What is the name of the podcast? Never mind…I see after reading again that the name of the podcast is Criminal. I am going to listen and then watch on Netflix.
  14. “Symptoms range from mild to pure hell…” My 48 year old perimenopausal self is over here cracking up at your description. 🤣🤣🤣
