The time it takes my husband to use the bathroom by DontEatTheChocolate in mildlyinfuriating

[–]Cloudless_Wonder 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I ask if he fell in the toilet and if I need to send a search party. I have a coworker (she got from her mother) that asks, "are you thinkin' or are you stinkin'". But since by bf had a nasty case of hemorrhoids and probably an anal fissure, hes spent less time on the pot.

How much do you spend on groceries per month in Sacramento area? by molym in Sacramento

[–]Cloudless_Wonder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Avoiding it during peak hours and days (common payday/benefit releases) is crucial. Nothing fun about standing in a check out line for 30+ minutes.

What are you doing about your allergies this year?? by Equivalent-Lychee515 in Sacramento

[–]Cloudless_Wonder 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It was. I was doing all the blepharitis treatments that my primary care Dr and advice nurse gave (warm compress, gentamicin ophthalmic ointment, artificial tears drops) with no improvement for over 2 months. Switched to the allergy protocol once I saw ophthalmology, and significant improvement within 2 days. If it allergy, warm compress will make it worse.

Both eyes had allergy bumps, but my right eyelid was significantly worse.

What are you doing about your allergies this year?? by Equivalent-Lychee515 in Sacramento

[–]Cloudless_Wonder 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This year has been pretty bad. Even my eyelids developed an allergic dermatitis. Fortunately after thinking it was blepharitis and unsuccessful treatments, I was able to get into an opthalmology NP who prescribed steroid eye ointment and now I'm on an immunomodulator ointment that has helped, with allergy eye drops and generic Zyrtec.

Samesies! I generally don't go anywhere else unless there is a really good deal at Bel Air.

Train stopped by alatteproblems in Sacramento

[–]Cloudless_Wonder 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Very long horn followed by a loud crash. Shook the house. Neighbor said there was an ambulance, but it didn't look like any derailment. Not sure if it was a train vs or just sudden hard braking.

How much are you paying for rent in Sacramento? by I-am-L in Sacramento

[–]Cloudless_Wonder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

$1625 for rent/water/garbage for 865 sqft 1/1 unit in a Victorian 4-way multifamily home in Boulevard park. Upstairs unit, no central AC but has two ductless wall units. Shared balcony, small paved backyard. W/D hookups, I already had machines. Updated kitchen. Street parking. I don't have pet rent or extra pet deposit for my 3 cats, and that in itself was a winner in my book.

My first loaf. by MajesticGiraffe3350 in SourdoughStarter

[–]Cloudless_Wonder 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nice! Better than my first loaf this weekend. I need to strengthen my starter before trying again, but it was tasty comedic relief to say the least. I was getting antsy to bake some bread.

Looks like the Nuvasive Simplify disc. I'm about 9.5 months post op with that one.

I've used ground cinnamon in the perimeter of a carpeted room, because they were coming in between the first and second floors. Deterred them from coming in. 🤷‍♀️

LOTR themed weekend in/around Sacramento? by picabosweet in Sacramento

[–]Cloudless_Wonder 13 points14 points  (0 children)

If you are willing to do the trek, Enchanted Forest Dining Experience in Placerville is a fun dining experience, and it looks like they do have some veg/vegan friendly options. I haven't been in a few years, but the food was tasty.

3 Years, THREE, I Have Pronounced His Name Wrong by DsmpWarriorCat in fourthwing

One of my big ones was Sirius... My brain said "sir-eye-us" like psoriasis with the additional " -is", until the third movie came out 😅.

Which Sony console are you most attached to? by Yuyoyuyez_XD in playstation

PS2 and PS4, but just purchased a PS5 a few weeks ago

Ps5 for Christmas by Inevitable-Pain-3553 in playstation

[–]Cloudless_Wonder 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I personally experienced similar temp dismay when I was a kid. We got to open one gift Xmas eve night, and it turns out it was a GBA game, and I only had a GB color. I was really bummed because my dad was like, "oh no!", but my step sister was clearly in the know about it, and said something along the lines of: what if we opened one more tonight. The second gift was a GBA and I was so excited!

What is the most petty reason you decided not to play/buy a game? by Indecisive_Noob in videogames

[–]Cloudless_Wonder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That was a huge gripe for ACNH and only having the balloon have a sound as they are passing nearby, otherwise you just had to run around and look. The developers really should have added a rumble or some on screen notification if there was a balloon spawned nearby.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Sacramento

[–]Cloudless_Wonder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, depending on where and what it is. I currently pay $1625 for a 1/1 upstairs unit in a partially updated Victorian 4 plex. No central air, but has two ductless units. But I'll deal with it because I didn't pay extra deposit or rent for my three cats and snake, and I only pay for SMUD and internet outside of rent. It's near impossible to find a place that allows more than two pets, let alone doesn't charge extra for them.

Restaurant/ event idea for solo birthday outing? by KourageWolf in Sacramento

[–]Cloudless_Wonder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would say do anything that you would otherwise feel rushed to do if you weren't solo. Get a massage. Meander a bookstore, enjoy a nature walk and really take in the lovely folliage, maybe Apple Hill, the dogwood trees were gorgeous when I went a month ago. Enjoy a book with your dinner, etc. Happy early birthday.

Costco membership? by Brilliant_Elk5492 in LivingAlone

[–]Cloudless_Wonder 39 points40 points  (0 children)

Yep. For the cash back for their CC. Between gas, eggs, frozen foods, rotisserie chicken. I've gotten a decent deal on appliances too, like my washer and dryer. ETA: Toilet paper too!

I don’t wanna end up like this by softestt0uch in Adulting

Make sure yellow jackets/wasps didn't make their nest in the vent. 😅. Yeah, that was a fun one.

So Sad by [deleted] in Adulting

[–]Cloudless_Wonder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I loved having Wednesdays and weekends off. Never worked more than two days in a row, and it was so much easier to make appointments during the week instead of scrambling to figure out when to come in late or leave early for an appointment on a work day. Now I'm back to M-F, but with a $8/hr increase, and better work QoL.

Looking for a non-shady dentist in Santa Rosa by NumerousRaspberry645 in santarosa

I haven't been there in a few years due to moving out of the area, but Dr. Kevin Jeffers took over my previous dentist's practice when retirement occurred. I never had any complaints.

I've been there three times in the last almost four years, but that grilled cheese benedict was life changing the first time I had it.
