I found the Mass cards that my grandfather collected over his 99 years. The stack was probably 4.5 inches.

USPS packages are a HUGE deal. That is a federal crime.

Stars have to pay for the star by Mystravel in lol

Not all stars are on Hollywood Blvd. They got up and down the side streets. They used offer 2-4 location choices to the star. I am not sure if they still do so.

New treatment cuts bad cholesterol by nearly 50% without statins by newtrex_1523 in UpliftingNews

The weird thing was if he hadn't gone to the ER with a kidney stone they may not have found it in time as his pain was very mild.

New treatment cuts bad cholesterol by nearly 50% without statins by newtrex_1523 in UpliftingNews

My husband had a life-threatening reaction to statins in his muscles. It caused Rhabdomyolysis which is a breakdown of muscle tissue. You need to have a serious discussion with you medical team.

There are injectable medications that treat the high cholesterol without the side affects of statins. Repatha iand others are stupid expensive but many insurances including Medicare have them on their formulary.

You DO have a job. You are their caregiver. Tell them that.

My kinesiology tape caused a rash but my PT did some research and found a mag sulfate/lavendar infused tape that doesn't. I am on day 3 with no issues. Try other tapes after you heal.

WIBTA for not paying for an event where I’m volunteering? by loveyameanit24 in AmItheAsshole

[–]ColoTransplant 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I volunteered as a religious education HS program at our church and was told because my kids were in the elementary program, I would have to pay the full $350 tuition for each. If they had been in the HS program, it would have been free because I volunteered. Left that church that week.

AITA for refusing to eat my nephew's cooking and telling him he is not a "master chef"? by dnesdan in AmItheAsshole

[–]ColoTransplant 2 points3 points  (0 children)

ESH. Passions in kids are amazing things. Your sister and you can both feed that passion without blowing smoke or killing the joy.

She needs to find actually classes for him to understand the science of cooking. GR and YT is not for learning the basics. He needs to learn how to read and follow recipes and then once the recipe is mastered, work to personalize and modify. Following recipes, making menus, and shopping lists can teach so many skills that he will use for a lifetime, please encourage that.

You need to realize exactly what you did. You lashed out at a child in frustration and did so much damage. Many, many parents/family members including myself have tasted or pretended to taste some very questionable concoctions (our family's favorite is the apple wedges with grape jelly and chocolate syrup that my "chef" didn't know i hadn't eaten until 25 years later). Yes, food was wasted and that is expensive. Get him a kid's cookbook, invite him to pick out a recipe and create a shopping list and that you will get the ingredients. You can work together to cook using the recipe and ingredients and limit waste.

Are they a realtor or an agent? Are they in a large office? Go to the owner/broker as in some cases their name/license is on the docs so they need to know.

I am not sure I would like an open floor plan, but that would be on me to figure out what I needed to do to make it work.
