Try the Almay in the blue tube. The purple one gave me the same burning, tired eye feeling.

VT sticker shock and questions
melbotoast replied to sangtarah's topic in The Learning Challenges Board
We are paying $185 for an hour 1-on-1 visit every other week. They recommended weekly at first but said we could do every other week if we were diligent about homework. Homework is 20-30 minutes 3x a week. They will retest for progress every couple months, estimated 10 months overall. I haven't heard anything about the light box stuff. -
Walnut (placed in the toe of the stocking), tangerine, banana, cracker jacks, lifesavers, toothbrush, chapstick, some kind of chocolate

I like Calm, but only some content is free. It has some kid stuff but I don't think it is free. Free downloadable meditations for kids: https://www.shambhala.com/sittingstilllikeafrog/

I'm thinking of adding this to my list. It is a poster with all the dresses Elizabeth Bennett wears in the 1995 P&P. https://www.etsy.com/listing/556583652/pride-and-prejudice-minimalist-poster?ga_order=most_relevant&ga_search_type=all&ga_view_type=gallery&ga_search_query=elizabeth bennet&ref=sr_gallery_1

:grouphug: Our family has been dealing with mental health issues. It sucks. Things that have helped: trying not to schedule activities in the evening. Even though I do way too much driving around during the day, at least we can be home for dinner regularly. Curbside pickup for groceries Taking a walk most mornings has helped my mood. Doing more strenuous exercise has been too much for me lately. Meditating daily. I've also been pondering hiring a maid to come in occasionally.

Best board and card games for 8 players?

Bang! -
Thanks, I appreciate the validation! :hurray:

You would probably like this one then! It was covering the bottom part of my thumb/palm. I liked the style otherwise; I actually have a similar one in blue.

Yes, it goes great with the new pants! I have a pair of flats I can wear with it but I want to find a cute pair of booties.

I got my second fix on Saturday and have taken until today to decide. Liverpool Cameryn skinny pant in olive ($88)- This was petite, ankle length, and it actually fit! I end up hemming a lot of pants so this was a nice surprise. This fit nicely and I need pants that are not jeans, so this is a keep. 41 Hawthorn Abrianna Longsleeve Knit Cardigan in burnt orange.($38) - This was a pretty, drapey cardigan, but the sleeves were too long. Return 41 Hawthorn Montgomery Cross Front Knit Top in navy ($48)- I put in my notes not to send me sleeveless tops, so I'm not sure why this was sent. I didn't care for the fit or pattern. Return. Justin Taylor Garland floral print infinity scarf in orange ($28)- This was okay, but I just don't like wearing scarves. Return. Kut From the Kloth Sinclaire Button front blouse in navy ($68) - I loved the colors and pattern of this one, but I had a really hard time with the price. I eventually decided that this is to treat myself so I went ahead and got it. Keep So I ended up keeping the most expensive items. Hopefully, that doesn't create problems in the future!

Food allergy people....reaction to Honey Mustard Pringles
melbotoast replied to Ottakee's topic in The Chat Board
I would definitely ask for an epi pen right away and then make an appointment with an allergist. We suspected milk/wheat with DD but were not sure so he did a panel with the most common allergens. It turned out to be corn. Edited for typos because I'm on my phone -
I usually do 1800contacts.com

My go to is chicken pot pie.

Weight-training ladies: back strength and aging
melbotoast replied to Ginevra's topic in The Chat Board
I am not a weight-training lady, but I have been working on my tummy lately. I had a slight abdominal separation which is getting better. I've been doing the exercises found here: https://tone-and-tighten.com/2014/03/how-to-treat-diastasis-recti-advice-and-exercises-to-help-you-feel-better-now.html I'm not a professional, nor do I play one on TV, but it sounds like working on the diastasis recti might help with core/back strength.
