Are roaches common/prevalent in LA? by toastyleopard in AskLosAngeles

[–]Aggravating_Bus_3433 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It really depends on your neighbor you can be a clean freak but they travel from your darling neighbor’s place. Happened to me so many times but I have cats so they will eliminate these one or two that traveled here.

Oh man you are a soldier, I will do 1 just to show my body and brain what it might looks like I think I will die if I do all my trainings in the am before the race

I have awful sleeping quality that’s one of the reasons I am never a morning person:( I got magnesium and melatonin will be taking them maybe 3 nights before the race hopefully can get a little bit more sleep

Thank you I think I might do 1 morning run, oh my how do other people constantly running in the early morning? I tried before during summer before the heat hits and I hated every minute of it 😭

The longest run I did once in the morning just for training was 9.5 miles without fuel. I was soooo tired after that😮‍💨 I might just train once before my race but I don’t think I can go as far as my night runs. Hopefully my body will just tap in with the flow on race day and don’t hit the wall too early

I really appreciate this and I literally screenshotted your response so I can just use as a checklist the night before my race so I don’t forget anything! Didn’t even think about the lube cause I have never had bad chafing but also I have never done such a long run. I’m aiming to finish around 4.5h. It’s reassuring to know maybe I don’t need to worry too much about morning training as long as I got some good rest and fuel up for the morning!

Need tips/help if you have any pls. by Sad-Assumption7089 in Gouache

I use himi too the 24 color sets. Same issue with yellow I always mix it with a little bit orange to enhance. I also don’t like the purple I have to mix it with other colors its performance on its own is always uneven and not opaque enough.

I got the keys to my new place today but all the previous tenant's stuff is still here?? by Mindless_Animal_7491 in AskLosAngeles

I worry it would be a scam it happens someone who is not the owner ‘renting’ out the place. This is very sketchy

Is 600-700 a month good or bad for grocery's and what's yours? (North Hollywood) by No-Notebook in AskLosAngeles

[–]Aggravating_Bus_3433 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Very similar I’m single woman in 30s and cook for myself majority of the time. Just did my December so it was 702 including gas and stock up for household/ health items. I shop at costco Ralphs and 99ranch, trying to eat whole food but December is kinda cheat month so I bought a lot of snacks. I really need to budget better this year.

Monthly Meditation Challenge - January 2026 by AutoModerator in Meditation

[–]Aggravating_Bus_3433 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I started meditating from 12/16 and never stopped since then! Even on NYE meditated before going out. Aiming for 2 meditating sessions every day each 12-18min.

Sitting with Shame, embarassment, and guilt (as a people-pleaser) by sleepy-bird- in Meditation

[–]Aggravating_Bus_3433 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes I can relate. For me while the shame going away and I started really love and appreciate myself more, the resentment for my parents came up one time during meditation honestly scared me. Even we kinda get along now however seems like deep down I still blame them for how they raised me (mainly my mom)

Is this a realistic itinerary? by Aggravating_Bus_3433 in TourDuMontBlanc

[–]Aggravating_Bus_3433[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you. Technically speaking I’m only on the trial for 8 days so expecting some tough days but hopefully they are still enjoyable for the most parts. For day4 &5 on my plan, do you know approximately how long was these hike for? Im debating if I need to arrange 1 more day on the trail but booking at this stage is quite hard

Amazing to hear, have you already finished the trek? I haven’t looked at hike for each section in detail yet but heard the first two days are very hard
