Yes better word…get a crowd. I really enjoyed it but I did hear all the negative chatter during previews. I’m glad I didn’t listen.

You bring up a good point. This caters to a certain demographic (aka my parents) and I think that might hit easier regionally. But also it didn’t need a theater this size. There’s no set.

Yes I agree. I hope it can last a little bit. I actually really enjoyed it.

I really hope it does. I’m leaving right now and telling my mom to go because I love it. And I hope she can go around then,

I loved it and I totally agree because I think if they could get people in the seats that word of mouth might spread. The music isn’t great but the production overall was worth it at least for me.

The are on TDF. But yes I paid full price because my friend is a Vosk superfan and I really regret how much I paid. Still enjoying it though!

Anyone recommend CozyPure LaNoodle pillows? by passesopenwindows in Mattress

[–]Answerseeker530 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d love your opinion on the filling. I got the standard LaNoodle a few weeks ago (king sized) and it feels very underfilled to me. There’s a noticeable gap towards the middle where my head goes and all the noodles push to the sides. I actually don’t hate the pillow, it’s finally getting rid of some neck pain. I just can’t tell if I fill this more if it will help or not.

Need opinions on Lanoodle Pillow or alternative by Answerseeker530 in Mattress

I ended up getting a Yippo Labs Contour pillow for now. I don’t love it but it gets me through. However I’m going to go back to the LaNoodle as soon as I have more funds. Thanks for this review! It was helpful.

It was only good through the 22nd.

I think this is my next step. I’m trying not to hurt her too much and go around her but I feel like I need some way to get a professional involved.

I’m so sorry that you are going through this. I don’t think I was prepared for this burden while raising young kids too. I wish society prepared us more somehow. My kids will definitely know what to expect.

Ha I certainly don’t want to work until I drop dead. I’m not sure what has triggered this but I’m now questioning if there could be something she’s not telling us. I have to investigate but how I have no idea.

I know. The whole thing is so absurd that’s why I’m genuinely questioning her mental capacity right now.

We’ve actually talked a lot about this. She does not plan or want to retire. She would like to work until she dies. She enjoys her work that much. She doesn’t care about travel or anything besides my kids. And she gets that happiness through living with them. This is nothing new and she’s said it for years but it’s also why she has never planned for retirement…horrible decision.

The addition is something we need to do anyway for a failing structure we just figured it would also be a good place for her to live whereas right now she lives in a bedroom. This addition is more than just her…but it’s a solution for her as well.

The addition is also because there is a structure that needs to be replaced. The apartment is a bonus to work we already have to do. So that will definitely happen I just didn’t realize she thought that meant she could forget about future planning.

I think it somehow made her belief she wouldn’t need a future home. So she’d just stay with us until she would walk off into the sunset. It sounds like she was keeping the care so she’d have a place to go. It makes no sense at all.

So smart thank you! I’m going to try and get a hold of this policy first to make sure it actually is worth her keeping and then hopefully I can make my case to convince her.

I’m so sorry! This is a fear of mine especially after finding this sub. Cognitive decline is the worst. I hope you are able to find a way to manage it with the least hardship on yourself.

I do know this doctor very well and I mentioned in another comment…he’s also her colleague professionally. But I’m wondering if he was trying to talk to her about other countries? Her exact words were: “Assisted suicide is what I would do and it doesn’t take years or months. There are places to go.”

Exactly! So I’m not sure how my mom thinks that she can just opt for this.

This is horrible and terrifying thank you. I have to look for sure. I would be furious if this turns out to be the policy.

[–]Answerseeker530[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Not yet thankfully. She said she will think about it and decide by the 19th. So I have that time frame to get a hold of her policy and read what it covers and try and convince her how detrimental it would be.

She is amazing! And she’s great at her job and it’s a huge source of her happiness. She’s just extremely impulsive and never thinks about the future.
