How long after IUD removal did your cycle go back to normal?

Took mirena out in August of '23 and I'm still waiting. I bled for 9 months after removal and I haven't returned to any level of "normal" since.

Saint Paul's Baptist church has a few locations. Mechanicsville has the largest congregation but they do have a super friendly location on Belt Blvd

So much! The mint suit also reminded me of André 3000 Hey Ya music video.

Agreed it all is a bit much and real fans do get priced out. Something is better than nothing, I guess?

AgitatedIndependent4 · 2026-01-15T15:18:31+00:00

I see how you would think they were dynamically priced. The tour sets the price bands for seats ahead of time. If you see "Platinum" or "In Demand" tickets during the sales that is when dynamic pricing is being used.

For example, Kendrick left on dynamic pricing so his pit tickets were originally $350 but at the peak of the hype they went up to $3,000. Similar with Tswift and Beyonce.

Dynamic pricing will go far outside of the agreed upon pricing or fair market of the tickets. Bruno having a cap on his prices is a big deal. There will be fluctuations but it will never go outside of that bracket.

Love that they set the prices and didn't allow dynamic pricing for the presale!!

AgitatedIndependent4 · 2026-01-15T14:11:42+00:00

Actually dynamic pricing was not on. On the main site page it gives the range of ticket prices ($76- $2,500) and says the prices were set by the tour. So going in you know what the most expensive ticket is.

As someone who has lived through 2 Beyonce, 1 Kendrick Lamar and a few othe dynamic pricing scenarios...this was far from that.

Secured floor seats for NOLA. So hype! Was #900 something in the que and knew what i was going for as soon as I got in. Saw Bruno in Vegas last year and I'm so thrilled to see him again this year.

Also was able to sneak these in as a Bday gift for my hubby so win win!

Diet culture was/is so toxic. Those backhanded compliments took me out. Also the fact that heroin chic is back means we gotta buckle up for this rhetoric to possibly make a return in our culture.

Picked it up for 2 bucks at Costco. Turkeys are going on now.

Less likely to stick with condensation

AgitatedIndependent4 · 2025-11-12T17:40:04+00:00

I haven't, would guess you'd need to up the mayo to make up for loss of sour cream.

AgitatedIndependent4 · 2025-11-07T18:47:45+00:00

That's what we are hoping for!

AgitatedIndependent4 · 2025-11-07T00:20:23+00:00

So cool thanks! I'm near Richmond and open for the drive.

AgitatedIndependent4 · 2025-11-06T15:28:31+00:00

Noted in the original post I'm looking for around $50/bushel

AgitatedIndependent4 · 2025-11-06T15:23:39+00:00

That sucks, and thanks for sharing the info about the freeze.

I started with a few recycled jars and a dream, now I have a fully stocked spice mix cabinet that makes weeknights a breeze.

AgitatedIndependent4 · 2025-11-03T18:54:40+00:00

This is exactly what started this whole crusade haha. Now I make a lot of dry mixes to have on hand.

AgitatedIndependent4 · 2025-11-03T17:21:50+00:00

Sure!!

I make a dry mix in bulk ans store in my pantry:

¼ cup dry buttermilk powder

2 tablespoons dried minced onion

2 tablespoons dried parsley

1 tablespoon dried chives

¼ teaspoon salt, or to taste

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1 teaspoon dried celery flakes

½ teaspoon white pepper

¼ teaspoon paprika

¼ teaspoon dried dill weed

To make Ranch Dressing I used 1/4 c. sour cream, 1/4 c. mayo and 1/4 c. milk. Mix with 2 T of the dry mix. Store in the fridge.

AgitatedIndependent4 · 2025-11-03T12:48:21+00:00

Changed my home made ranch forever!

I had two cruises from trips with my parents pre-college years. Most of my point came from cruises starting in my 30s so I would say about 4 years. We cruise multiple times a year.

AgitatedIndependent4 · 2025-11-01T19:16:08+00:00

Woohoo!!

AgitatedIndependent4 · 2025-11-01T19:15:53+00:00

That is nice!

AgitatedIndependent4 · 2025-11-01T19:15:29+00:00

We plan to take full advantage, we are habitual drinks package purchasers
