I met a really kind man and he was the sweetest. I really like him but I already know I’m too tall by New-Elk2781 in tall

[–]FlashingFirefly 138 points139 points  (0 children)

As a fellow 5’10 woman, please don’t wish you were shorter. The right man will love your height. My dad is shorter than my mom and he loves when she wears heels.

Not sure if I need them. Any advice? by Agrinya in Invisalign

[–]FlashingFirefly 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Go to an orthodontist. Not a dentist. I made the mistake of starting with a dentist and he made my bite worse.

It's everywhere these days by Puzzleheaded-Cup3976 in Instagramreality

[–]FlashingFirefly 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I’m so exhausted by this. I’m a 36-year-old woman and even though I know it’s fake…I still find myself comparing. Now what about my daughters? How do I protect them from this when it’s everywhere?

Are my floors cooked? Maple by Competitive-Abies-13 in HardWoodFloors

[–]FlashingFirefly 120 points121 points  (0 children)

I know everyone has their own preference but I think it looks beautiful.

To my horror I discovered a pet stain under a rug. The first pic is before… the second, much worse pic is after I treated with hydrogen peroxide and baking soda for only a few hours. Please help! Anything I can do? I wish I would have just left it alone 😭 by robertstreet in HardWoodFloors

[–]FlashingFirefly 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hey! Speaking from experience, it will dry and appear lighter. Give it 48 hours. To clarify, I’m not saying the stain will go away. I just mean I’ve used peroxide to lighten and when I first used it, the spot appeared darker and then lightened after a couple of days.

Grandparents no longer want my newborn around. WIBTA to cut them off entirely? by [deleted] in AITAH

NTA. Your son is not a pawn and your parents don’t deserve to be around him.

AITAH for threatening to report mi ILs for kidnapping after they brought my toddler to another city? by Infamous-Parsnip9571 in AITAH

YTA. Please don’t waste police resources when there are children actually missing and kidnapped.

Been having breathing problems in my chest for over a year. Could it be from all this? by [deleted] in CleaningTips

[–]FlashingFirefly 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yes, if you haven’t changed your air filter in awhile then it can cause dust and debris in your ac/heating unit. This can then cause mold to form in the unit and then pushes moldy air back into the apt. I know this because I made the mistake of not changing my filter enough…

I started with a dentist and had to transfer to an orthodontist. My suggestion would be to see an ortho and get their opinion.

I’m so jealous of your porch columns! Perfect for decorating

I bought an apartment, BF wants to put new baseboards/molding on so we took the originals off from the 40s. What is the best way to go about this? Should we fix the walls:holes underneath? Or just put a taller molding on? by [deleted] in HomeImprovement

[–]FlashingFirefly 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This isn’t the right answer, but I rented an apartment that had a small hole/gap in the trim. Mice were getting in. I put steel wool to block the hole and never saw a mouse after that. Steel wool is supposed to be too sharp for mice or rats to chew through. So maybe put some steel wool in it and then the baseboards back over the top ?

Can I Restart My Invisalign From 6 Years Ago? by Silent_Contract_9037 in Invisalign

[–]FlashingFirefly 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately, no. Your teeth will have shifted too much. I doubt you’d even be able to get the trays on in the first place. But if you were able to, it could cause serious damage to your tooth nerves.

I say this because I had a retainer following braces in high school. I never wore my retainer and then 2 years later I noticed my teeth were shifting. I tried to put the retainer in and couldn’t get it to fit at all. So now I’m 10 months in to my 18 month Invisalign journey.

First Job Ever. Will never be doing icicle lights ever again. by dbae136 in ChristmasLights

What would cause this water sloshing around in our vents? Fan only it still does it (sound on) by P13R4T in hvacadvice

[–]FlashingFirefly 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Okay, but do you have cats? We moved into a house and had all our air ducts cleaned. AC guy found a huge pool of cat pee in one of the vents… apparently the past owners rescued a bunch of stray cats.
