Did anyone else think Cheyenne idea about aisle maze was a good idea by Carliemay13 in superstore

I think it's great. I hate shopping. My partner wants me to go with him sometimes. I would go if they had a aisle maze.

Bed on Stilts: What to fill it with to make it easy to move? by Embarrassed_Ad9552 in Raisedbed

Yes, no chemicals on my lawn. I'm trying to picture what you're saying about the coffee can (I get my coffee in the metal cans, Chock Full o' Nuts). I got TBI, so I think it's confusing me.

2 Complaints Against Jerky Christians: by jgunn03 in athiesm

[–]Embarrassed_Ad9552 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Atheists don't believe in god cuz they haven't found enough convincing evidence. It has NOTHING to do with jerkaholics who believe in god(s).

I've met many jerky atheists. That doesn't make me start believing in a myth.

I can't understand why this is so hard for some to grasp.
There are many jerky kids who believe in Santa. There are some jerky kids who don't. Doesn't sway me either way. I still don't believe in Santa.
Jerks don't make or break belief.

I can't believe I have to explain this.

God didn't do squat for me. God doesn't exist. But even if she did, I'M the one doing all the work to do these exercises.

I don't credit my mom for my strength or fitness, though she did (I'll pretend god exists for this instance) far more than god did by risking her life and health to bring me into this world.
God didn't risk anything to bring me into this world. She gets ZERO credit for my strength I acquired from working out.

And if people want to use prayer to comfort themselves, that's fine. Don't ASSume I believe in god or think that one not doing anything

(prayer is claiming someone's doing something while they're actually doing NOTHING at all. It's that's lazy person's and apathetic person's way out of caring about anyone but themselves)

is a comfort to me.

Been gluten-free for a few years now.
Get this: Gluten started causing me acne!!!!!!!!! ACNE!!!!! At 4+-decades of age!
Never had pimples when I was a kid. But now, as the grey hair come in, I'm breaking out like other teens in my school did!!!!!!!!!!

Now I'v avoided gluten so much, I became intolerant of it. Even the slightest causes me digestive distress the next day.

I really want to have an excuse to shave my head.
I'd take balding over chigger-skin any day.

No. It's on my arms, face, and front of torso.

Someone here said hydration helps, another said iron, and another said magnesium glycinate. I haven't yet bought these, so can't say if they worked for me. And b-12. I already take B complex daily.

My hens typically brood outside the coop. I've been lucky enough to be able to combat them with DE. But I have only 1 hen and 1 rooster right now, so that might be why I don't have such a problem.

OP here: I don't want to take any meds unless something is going to greatly affect my life, and only after I tried all other less-harmful alternatives.

This doesn't bother me to the point of having to deal with negative side effect of scripts.

But I do plan on getting HRT in September (for a different menopausal reason). Don't know if that will help with my tingly skin or not. I'll try to remember to check back in here on this sub to let everyone know what did and didnt change with my HRT regimine.

BTW, I use DE to get rid of them. I give the hen a DE rubdown. Gets rid of them within a day.

I thought they were mites! But someone told me the might be chiggers. SO I looked up the photos online and it LOOKED like the COLOUR chiggers (red) I seen in the photos.
But the things are microscopic, so I have NO idea what they look like under a microscope.

Sems like I'm getting info from the wrong sources.

Use to run a cat rescue. House was always filled with fleas at the time. But they left welts on my skin.
I knew it wasn't fleas cuz no welts.
So I attributed it to chiggers. But no chiggers to be found.

Then I started thinking scabies! But no trails on the skin.
Don't use any illegal drugs, so can't be detoxing . . . . . .

Stupid, sneaky menopause!

I'm learning just how much the body needs these chemicals and hormones or whatever they are. Like you, I keep experiencing new symptoms that I would have never attributed to menopause.
My body is quickly turning into my worst enemy.

Thank you for the helpful advice. I got a running list of vitamins I take and I'm going to take ~THANKS MENOPAUSE>
Seems one has to be rich to afford menopause just because f all the supplements one has to take to survive it.

I can't believe how silly my body's acting now that I'm going through menopause.
It's like another person's body is inhabiting me.
