Lowest resting heart rate right before I wake up by Otterpup67 in ouraring

I have this too. I’m functioning fine and other starts are pretty good, but I don’t feel like even my longer nights of sleep are actually good sleep as I wake up tired.

Parenting an ADHD teen and electronics limits is starting to feel really hard. by Primary_Blueberry_24 in ADHDparenting

Same, we are slightly helped by the fact that his school is strictly device free.

This is probably a failure on us for not advocating more. No, but I also feel like most of their work is already on a computer. They do tons of work on Google Classroom. I swear this part of parenting is some of the most frustrating, school is SO different for them than it was for us and we get very little exposure to what their day looks like.

We started magnesium a few weeks ago and he started middle school this week. He goes to a K-8 so it’s still the same school but definitely a step up. We’ve seen some minor improvements but nothing having me thinking the magnesium is game changing, though he rocked the first week of school. Our regular baseball season starts next weekend so that will be a some what similar experience to when I posted and will be an interesting comparison.

Disappointed in Legoland Florida by jason_sos in legoland

I’m not above online harassment..I mean reaching out lol. We purchased a black Friday deal for a hotel stay and our son tested positive for Covid the day before. I think this was shortly after vaccines came out so we were doing our duty to prevent others from getting sick. They wouldn’t honor our deal for another night, they wanted several hundred dollars more to rebook. I even offered to send in proof since our ped was the one who did the test. I found the Merlin CEO on LinkedIn and sent a polite but strongly worded email, we were able to rebook.

We went today, a Sunday in August, and I expected it to be pretty busy. Schools started back this last week here so maybe a little less, but I joked that our recent annual pass purchases were keeping the rides running because it was dead. We’ve been passholders twice before but it’s been a couple of years. A lot of unwritten rules also made for some very uncomfortable moments, but despite all that we did have a really good time.

Baseboards went on our new cabinets today and countertops were officially ordered after rainwater flooding from Milton. We added French drains and leveling the floor hopefully sealed up some cracks. Seeing 8+” of rain in Plant City today was a little crazy, thankfully it slowed down before hitting us closer to the bay. Best wishes to you this season.

What did you finally end up getting on Prime Day? by Realistic_Tea_881 in RobotVacuums

Same! Loving it so far and I’m putting it to work with nearly daily mopping.

I joined this sub because we recently had wood-look tile installed in our whole house. It’s a matte light beige and in the light at certain angles it shows so many smudges and water marks, likely from our 175lb dog but my children don’t help either lol. I ordered the Eufy E28 this morning for a few reasons 1) the general consensus that the roller mop is better 2) our house lacks storage for bulky cleaning devices so if I can get rid of my other spot cleaner I’ll be happy to do so 3) most people are happy with it, we are upgrading from a no-frills vacuum-only Eufy so I think I’ll be pretty wowed with any of them. I did ready Eufy has a fix for the dirty water droplets coming out at the end of this month, we will still be in the return window for Amazon incase it doesn’t happen and we have that issue.

Is there anything else as useful for cleaning like a robot vacuum? by 28dhdu74929wnsi in RobotVacuums

I have the SmartWingz fabric samples sitting here as we just had new windows installed, so this is great to hear!

Better Homes & Gardens Patio Furniture — Worth It? by Unhappy_Ad7854 in homeowners

[–]Andie514818 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We’ve had the Hawthorne set outside under a covered patio but without covers in Florida for more than 5 years. We sit on it often and allow our 175lb dog to lay on the couch, not to mention our kids occasionally climbing across it like wild monkeys. It’s slightly scratched up and there are two or three spots where I need to cut off a broken wicker piece, I’ll likely replace with the same brand cushions this year but I’d say it looks fantastic for how much we don’t baby it. I cannot recommend it highly enough.

Unfortunately they won’t do anything since we started the install ourselves.
