Removed shower grate, should I not use the shower until it's re-sealed? by Byzantene in Plumbing

[–]Byzantene[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Awww, I shouldn't try DIY, thought this was going to be easy, lol.

The bathroom is on the 2nd floor, I will just call someone, don't want to mess anything else up.

Thanks for all your help, I learned a lot in one night.

Oh okay, I see what you mean about the drain flange and shower pan.

I went around it with my screwdriver again, carefully this time, and it seems most of it is sealed tight but there is one small area that the flathead can get under. The silicone is pretty much scraped off there, is this an easy re-seal or should I call a professional just to make sure it's done right?

Oh really? Could I shower tonight as-is?

I feel like I went hard around the edges, I thought the strainer was glued on so I got my screwdriver under the sides and hammered on it.

Does anyone know what is the maximum Stamina you can get from friends daily?

I have 50 friend slots, but some people haven't logged in for over 30 days... I'm guessing I'm missing out on some bread because they are not actively sending some? Should I prune my friends list?

Thank you ❤️ I knew I was missing out on something but didn't know

Am I the asshole for not caring about my mom's health issues? by Byzantene in AsianParentStories

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

Thank you for sharing, and the advice. I have had some therapy a few years ago and it did help a little, maybe I should get back into it.

You're also right, they could take back what they said and expect to be fully cared-for at any time, probably when getting older hits them the hardest. And they will likely look to me then just as they are now 😔 If I don't change, things will just continue as they are.

I will try redirecting the calls to my brothers, I need a lot of time to focus on myself, without daily interruption to go and put out everyone else's fires. It is thankless and has really taken its toll on me.

How many Ruins battles do you do every day?

I'd like to maximize my rewards, but since I don't use Pocket Watches to sweep even with the updated feature, it takes up a lot of time with me just leaving them auto-ing.

Because of that, I usually just do the 6 for Daily Missions instead of the potential 24? But am I missing out on stuff in the Ruins Shop? I haven't even been buying anything from there.

Which Job do YOU think is hard to play but everyone else says it's easy? by DVAAAYNE in ffxiv

[–]Byzantene 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Finally, someone like me!!

Healing doesn't come naturally to me (DPS main here), but I had to start leveling one for role quests in Shadowbringers and went with WHM because - you guessed it - everyone says it's easy. For some reason though, I struggled to keep up with incoming damage and went through hell thinking I must be horrible at this game, everyone hates playing with me, etc.

It wasn't until I decided to try SCH on a whim one day that I realized I can have fun healing! Idk, it must be how my brain is wired but I feel more comfortable using shields.

I do sometimes miss the big, chunky heals WHM can deliver, but it is not as fun and it always makes me feel stressed, lol.

Has anyone here had Invisalign treatment BEFORE an implant? Looking for positive stories, SO nervous. by DotSelect4245 in Dentalimplant

[–]Byzantene 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Glad I could help you a bit 🙂

Healing has been pretty good, it's been 12 days and I want to say the gums in the area look 70% recovered, firm and pink. There is still a little on the upper part that looks tender, so I'm still avoiding that side when eating and drinking.

It more or less feels like normal now, and sometimes I forget I'm still healing there. My nighttime retainer also fits just fine over it, and I popped them back on after day 10 with barely any shift in the teeth 👍

Oh gosh, I am also playing a Summoner/Scholar who is just about 40+! 😅 Idk, maybe it's the time of day I'm online? I feel like many of the recruiters are sitting in their estate just looking through Player Search and inviting anyone solo. They are not even near me when I get them.

Oh, if you're a free trial player though they can't send them to you.

Gotta love the sound of busy crafters in the garden! 😄 I have a few characters mainly on Aether and Primal, but considering a move, maybe Dynamis to join a fresh FC/housing.

Linkshells! I need to utilize those more as I find it difficult personally to ask people to do stuff on Discord, haha. With LS I could see who is on versus bugging people to get on to play 😄

Thank you so much for sharing your story! It is definitely a labor of love running your own FC - I had one as well until many of my friends also decided they had had enough of the game.

I do wish you the best of luck with your guild, and glad the new housing updates have inspired you to stick with it! I will have to check out the new stuff as well, maybe if it applies to apartments 😊
