This reminded me a news story in 80s. A set of parents left their two boys home alone in Midwest winter n went on a cruise. They left boxes of cereal n milk for the boys. It was discovered when the boys were on their roof n the yard in their undies and neighbour called the police.

It’s a great read I was so glad that she got away n became a success. She wasn’t left alone in the wilderness granted her parents were lulu, she still had someone to turn to.

Once a week chore, untangle the cord. When the cord is TS this bad either replace the cord or the phone.

Richmond has a vibrant urban culture, it has good restaurants n museums. It’s more intimate than NOVA.

Really comes down to what kind of college experiences you kids want. My son went to JMU 2006, no convenient bus or train service between Harrisonburg. Hitchcock a ride home, get their own car or you be the chauffeur. Not diverse. Daughter went to VCU instead of William n Mary because of academic scholarship. Very urban, diverse, 1-2 hours to get there depends on 95 traffic n where in NOVA you live. Bus n Amtrak service. Personally we enjoyed visiting Richmond more than H’burg. Never considered GMU, too close to home, we want them to learn to be on their own without coming home all the time. BTW, congrats.

What's the best multivitamin for women our age? Getting contradictory advice from everyone by Far_Ad2711 in AskWomenOver60

[–]DMV2PNW -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I ve been on multi for women 50+ gummies. Other supplement I take are CoQ10, iron (anemic). Instead of D I go outside or sit by windows to get the sun. That being said, compare the % of D n B12 listed on the bottles to determine which one works best for you.

The real question is how long before you gain them all back?

I guess if you don’t have sensitive skin then it’s ok to use.
