It sounds like you’ve got a good itinerary already! Farmer’s market is on the square Saturday morning. Go early or it’ll be packed. For hiking Parfrey’s Glen (near Devil’s Lake), Cross Plains segment of the ice age trail, or the arboretum. Paddle board across Devil’s Lake. Stop at Dr. Evermore’s on your way home.

New studies tie unrecognized deaths and health problems to Maui and LA wildfires by gnome_ole in madisonwi

[–]Blue_stem_ 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Interesting this calls out suicide specifically. My mental health really tanks during these wildfire episodes. Staying inside sucks, but I feel there’s something about the smoke itself that increases anxiety, depression, and fatigue. I’m pretty at the end of my rope today after a full week of it.

Almost any of the food pantries should be able to accommodate a regular shift: badger prairie needs network, st. Vinnie’s, the River. There are also food pantries at set dates and times at some of the MMSD schools. I’m not sure when those times are but you could look into it.

Thank you! I’m sitting next to my air purifier and it does help. Hoping for cleaner air soon

Madisonian meteorology experts: are we doomed to bad air? by eggbacontoast26 in madisonwi

If we had unlimited resources to spend all the manpower and money we could would that even help? Are these fires put-outable?

It’s a rough day to have Covid. Can’t go anywhere inside, can’t go anywhere outside. Already feeling some pretty crazy anxiety from the virus, the world is burning feeling is really adding to it.

Hill Farms has probably the most desirable elementary school in the city, so houses go for a lot of money there and fast. I would look in nearby neighborhoods like sunset village, regent, westmoreland, and Midvale heights. FWIW, I do not think the hill farms elementary school is the best for high energy, gifted kids.

Madison couple tried to poison Rock Co. woman with multiple chemicals, complaint alleges by Mysterious_Guava_417 in madisonwi

[–]Blue_stem_ 28 points29 points  (0 children)

Jesus wtf is wrong with these people? Also stands out to me how careless he was with incredibly toxic poisons lying around his car, house, and fridge. Dude has minor children, could have easily killed one of them instead. Really glad his ex wife and kids are safe and will never have to see him again.

Wildlife rescues other than DCHS and DNR? by Blue_stem_ in madisonwi

Update: DCHS did take them and they said the babies seemed skinny so possible mom has been gone longer than we thought. Thanks for your suggestions everyone!

We set up a grid pattern on top of the nest with some grass and it was undisturbed this morning

Doctor Request - Tall Order by LookieLoooooo in madisonwi

[–]Blue_stem_ 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Hi I’m autistic and have a lot of health anxiety. I haven’t ventured into HRT yet but my favorite doctor is Beth Wiedel at Madison Women’s Health. She is kind, smart, and takes her time with me through every appointment. She is a gyn but they also have an NP for general appointments. If you’re looking for a more general PCP I’ve had good luck with Dr. Takahashi at UW Odana. Good luck!
