It's the way the walls are put together when it is manufactured. You can read about it here: https://www.theshabbycreekcottage.com/three-ways-cover-mobile-home-walls.html

Thank you! I just opened the pack I received from round 1 - I tested negative when feeling a little crappy last week, and dd24 just tested positive with a runny nose and mild sore throat tonight, so we only have 2 tests left. I missed round 2 of free tests, so I'm thankful to get in on this round.

We tried. Took a midnight stroll around the house outdoors, but although we could see the stars the moon was nowhere in sight.

This happened to me a few years ago, but I thought I must have been imagining that it was purple before - a bit of floral-gaslighting? I could swear that thing was purple before! But sadly, the flowers are just opening white.

Imma go a little bit further, beyond "orchestration" to speculate that she broke up her prior relationship, as well as his relationship with the mother of his two children, just as he became addicted to the painkillers he had been prescribed, and contributed to his continued addiction to drugs as he battled for sobriety throughout the duration of their relationship.

Painting the ceilings the same color as the walls makes rooms look larger (if you are not using dark colors). It saves a ton of cutting-in time too, as well as neck pain. I prefer it but dh does not. I think your mistake was in signing off on your spec sheet with the vague paint specs. DH has clients sign off on actual paint colors for the houses he's contracting.

Yes, actually my husband had one for work in the 90s before we were a couple. Although we had been friends since 1988, I was in NH and he had moved to FL, so we only chatted once every few years. Cell phones were just becoming widespread in the late 90s, and he had just gotten one when I contacted him via the pager - the only number I had for him. He had been planning to ditch the pager the following week. I contacted him for something business-related, but we caught-up on personal stuff which turned into a relationship, marriage, and children. And here we are!

How about something like this? You probably need to search for twin sleeper loveseat or chair.

Why do people assume that men cannot be abused? I think public opinion was previously on her side due to just what you wrote - people recognize that. So I guess it's a good thing there is other corroborating evidence. She is also an actress, yet she can't even keep it together for court?

Who in their right mind would think it's okay to non-consensually drug a group of people? Wow.

We have a hand-mowing competition at our local fair every summer.

Could also have been hayed.

I set up an Ads folder in my email account and also set up a redirect from those things so they go directly into the Ads folder. This way, I can hunt down sales and coupons when I'm ready to make a purchase. Otherwise I send them to spam

If she needs that much help, she'll probably be better off in a nursing home?

It is probably hurting because he is out of shape, as you had indicated, and he used those muscles, or other muscles that pulled unevenly on his back, while working on the shed. This happened to my dh - he moved from a physical field-work job into an office job, and his core muscles weakened so that doing low-level activities was hurting his back. He also gained a bit of weight, and refused to come work out with me (in our basement!). I told him that he needed to strengthen his core to hold his spine more erect instead of settling into his hips and compressing it, but he wouldn't believe me. Instead he went to the doctor who sent him to physical therapy, where he learned to do the core-strengthening exercises that made his back pain disappear. Go figure. Perhaps you can encourage him to get fit again by working out together, in between bouts of work on the shed? But really, spending a bunch of money every single month for a storage unit will cost a lot more in the long run than paying once for the shed to be finished by someone else.

Yes. When my endorphin levels are low I feel it acutely - there is no point to all of this struggle, none of it matters in the grand scheme of the universe, so why bother suffering through it - and ruminating on it causes me SI. When I'm very low I do experience that out-of-body feeling you described, with a bunch of other symptoms like tunnel vision, a gray-ness about the world like a lack of color, insomnia followed by feeling fatigued but not sleepy, a mild headache in a particular part of my head like I'm wearing a headband that's too tight, and a sense that space is infinitely large and time has slowed to a crawl (so feeling small in relation). It is very difficult to concentrate or do anything productive when I feel that way. I hope you feel better soon. ❤️

I haven't read the rest of the replies yet... I read this to dh, who is a residential construction project manager, without giving him the price you were quoted. I asked him for a ballpark figure. On the back of a napkin, it took him ten minutes to calculate this job to cost $54,700.

He had it coming. There's such a thing as fighting words. I wouldn't make her apologize.

A lot of rosacea and acne are caused by overgrowth of skin mites. It can be treated with sulfur gel and/or sulfur soap.

We had a house-bunny for 7 or 8 years, until he passed away last year. We were warned by the breeder that females who are not bred are very likely to develop reproductive cancer. We also had a multi-story cage with a litter box in the bottom which we made from plywood and cube. We learned that rabbits eliminate while they are eating, so the feeder was up on the side of the cage above the litter box. He wasn't good about using the box when he was out of the cage, so despite our best intention to allow him to roam freely around the house, he did spend most of his days in the cage. If you google "cube rabbit cage", you'll find lots of ideas.

And ignore all the research that shows people earn more over the course of their lifetimes, and have better health and social outcomes as well, the more education they receive.

I voted for eat chocolate, but I also think you could: A. Type out the letter, so that you've gotten it out of your head, print & burn it, OR B. Shout & scream what you want to say to them into an envelope, and then mail them the empty envelope.

I agree with this. I informed all of the extended family - some supportive, and some bigots - when dd started to transition as an older teen. She has chosen since that time not to attend 99% of family gatherings because she doesn't want to deal with misgendering and deadnaming. DH has a niece getting married this summer, and even though dd would have chosen not to attend had she been invited, she was not invited. DH is more upset about it than she is, because she knows who the bigots are and has intentionally cut that toxicity out of her life. And yes there was some grief attached to the experience, but also a great deal of relief. I have joy for my dd that she is finally happy living as her authentic self.

I agree with this. In the same way that it is your story to tell those family members about your children's jobs and other life happenings, this is also part of your story now. IMO, it really doesn't matter that they are adults; you are the go-between because they are your family members on both sides, but only extended family to your children. How about another metaphor: If one of them had cancer, and didn't have the emotional bandwidth to tell all of the family branches - you would probably run interference before they showed up to Thanksgiving looking bald and ill? Or would you just say - "not my story"? But I like the pregnancy metaphor better - because transition should be a happy event - it's all about how you frame it in your own mind. Being supportive in name only isn't really support? Actions count more than words.
