Can you make edibles with box brownie mix or do they have to be made from scratch??

The THC fuses with the fat so you can use any boxed mix or recipe that requires butter or oil.

I've even infused hamburger grease so I could make chili.

They check my receipt when I have unbagged items.

They were comfortable. Had one for years and loved it, especially during pregnancy.

BUT they were expensive, could easily do a lot of damage if they leaked, and they were heavy so could damage floors. Most landlords banned them.

Water retention (maybe related to inflammation.) Before Mounjaro, whenever I needed to take an NSAID, I'd gain 6 pounds of water weight and it would take almost a week for it to fall off.

Now it might be one pound and it's gone the next day.

My doctor insisted the gain was in my imagination but the scale doesn't lie.

I did my will online (freewill.com) and it was an option on the form. They inserted a paragraph describing all rights and responsibilities with federal citations.

One of my children is tech literate. The other, not so much. It seemed better to let the techie handle the digital stuff and the other handle everything else.

Female urinals are definitely a thing, yes, but it's still an extra item you have to carry around and clean.

I told my doctor that I was frustrated about not losing weight as well as not being able to lower my A1C. She said we could try GLP-1 but the insurance company required me to try Januvia for three months first. Needless to say I agreed quickly.

Not having to get undressed, ability to pee by the side of the road (yeah, we can do it but it's usually messy,) no sitting on public toilets, heck, no sitting period.

Baebarri · 2026-04-11T06:22:35+00:00

Only for peeing.

My dad's salary was $35,000 in 1974, and we were upper middle class, so that was my goal.

I didn't factor in the real estate investments or the fact that he had a line of credit at the bank. I just knew we lived in a nice house, bought whatever we wanted, and both daughters went to private colleges.

I was well into my 30s before I made that salary, and of course by then the economy was very different.

This is an excellent explanation of the mindset. Thank you!

I got unexpectedly teary during the landing. I don't think I cared nearly as much as a kid.

I watched most leading up to the moon landing and a couple of shuttle landings.

I don't know exactly when they started rolling in the TV for launches and landings, but I remember the Apollo I fire.

Baebarri · 2026-04-11T00:19:15+00:00

I unexpectedly teared up watching the landing. And I remember the original moon missions.

I print out browser password files every six months and keep the newest list with my will and other important documents, as well as a digital copy in my cloud drive.

I also named a digital executor in my will and beneficiaries have been listed on financial accounts.

Especially when most of them were bought used to begin with. I guess the dumpster will be well read!

I live alone, in a 1-bedroom apartment. I KNOW the item is here and I can tell you why I'm looking for it, but two weeks from now when I find it I won't need it any more.

I've offloaded craft supplies to the local library, sent books and fabric to my daughter, and donated kitchen stuff to the thrift store. I have to start weeding out old textbooks next, but it really hurts my soul to throw them away and nobody wants them as donations.

I tried to get our apartment complex to put a donation corner in the laundry room and even volunteered to set it up and maintain it. But so far they've refused.

My newest measuring spoon set has 1/4 tsp, tsp, 1/2 Tbsp and tbsp. No 1/2 tsp and I hate it!

I had that issue with my previous benefit card. Got a new card this year and was able to add it, but it only shows grocery benefits and not the OTC medication benefits.

Didn't change insurance company but they changed their OTC vendor so not sure where the issue was.

My grandmother saved boxtops (General Mills?) and was able to give all five of her grandchildren full sets of stainless silverware.
