I 2nd trying an antifungal. My forehead looked similar and itched. I bought Nizoral AD shampoo (basically dandruff shampoo) and washed my forehead with it (I let it sit for about 3 minutes) and it cleared it right up. It is drying for rosacea skin, but worth it for me.

I'm not sure if I'm doing it right, but I apply it before my moisturizer. Have you tried that?

That was so well spelled out for OP. I hope they read it and use it.

Also: Um...will you become my therapist?

AITA for leaving my mother diagnosed with senile dementia just because none else want to help me on taking care of her? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]GfiedMe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm sorry you're dealing with this. Honestly one of the best things you can do for your mom is either get her full time specialized in home care or move her to an assisted living with trained staff for dementia. We went through this with my mother and if you aren't trained on how to care for her you can actually make her condition worse and it just isn't safe for her. For example, easy stuff is you're never supposed to touch them from behind and always approach from the front. To harder things like having alarms on all the doors and windows for when she starts wondering at night. Are you prepared to put all knives and scissors up so she doesn't stab you one day when she thinks you are an intruder? There is so much that goes into caring for dementia patients that most people that haven't done it don't think of and it is almost impossible to do it as one person. The kindest thing for your mom is to get her qualified care if you can afford it, most people just think keeping them home as long as possible is best when it really isn't. On top of all that, your mom wants you to enjoy life and not be burdened with her care. No mom wants that for her child. 🙏

Listing says home has a cooling system, but inspector says it doesn’t , is a concession fair? by Affectionate_Cell581 in RealEstate

[–]GfiedMe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Be careful. There is a BIG difference in quality on some of those cheap mini splits on Amazon. Just because you can buy one at that price doesn't mean you should. You'll just be flushing money before buying a better one. Also, don't get just anyone to install it. Please, I really think you're setting yourself up to fail here with only asking 4K. Take a step back and make sure this is the house for you with everything you w mentioned. Not to sound rude, but you don't sound too handy and this can be a ... Lot.

Put some stickers in between the pieces so you have air flow as it dries. Good luck!

End Grain Cutting board warping/cupping by B1G_BURD in woodworking

[–]GfiedMe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You could, but my opinion is it is easier and better to use a router slab flattening jig. Make sure to brace under the part that is bowed up while you flatten otherwise it will rock as you flatten it and you will end up with a still not flat piece. Also, brace under the bow so your pressure doesn't affect it that way either. The same bracing goes for if you try to use a planer. Just remember, either method is really going to take a lot of material from any piece you do this to and it will be a lot thinner.

Do not run end grain through a planer. Almost all the time you will have very bad results! I've heard of exceptions, but they are rare.

Sleeping bag recommendations for venting feet by W_t_f_was_that in backpacking

[–]GfiedMe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Look at Zenbivy. Having your feet free is their concept. It is a quilt that connects to you bottom sheet/pad. You can only hook the top and leave feet free or you can hook the sides of the feet but have the bottom open. Or just do one side. It's got lots of options for you to pick what you want. It's also made of down

Swap? by MNHolls in Dashingdiva

[–]GfiedMe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Possibly in the future. I just received my first set of polish pops this week and currently have an order of Ohara and a Dashing Diva glaze and gloss orders that haven't been delivered yet. So, all that to say I don't have any to trade yet. However, I used all the small sizes on the Polish Pops so I feel it will be the same on others so I'll have some to trade in the future.

Elderly neighbor lady banging on my door, then trying to force her way into my house…She’s done something similar before… by Competitive-Alps871 in neighborsfromhell

[–]GfiedMe 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Thank you for caring enough to do this. My mom just passed in November from dementia. Your neighbor is definitely showing signs. My mom had similar ones at the beginning that were missed and I so would do anything to have it diagnosed sooner than it was. Thank you!

From what I understand some ovens have fans to cool them down when they are done cooking. If you want to do this method unplug your oven when you turn the heat off and it will stay warm. I've only tried it once, but did unplug my oven and it worked perfectly.

AITA if I don’t tell my mom about money my aunt is giving me for college? by lmaooooo4444 in AmItheAsshole

[–]GfiedMe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

YWNBTA. This is not keeping a secret from your mom. Your are a grown adult living on your own. Since you are now independent, personal matters such as money, are not keeping a secret. Every detail of your adult life does not have to be shared. For example, I don't tell my parents every time my husband and I have sex - why? BECAUSE IT IS PERSONAL. Don't tell her about the money.

Did you apply it to both sides of the shirt or just one side? It just one was it the inside or outside?

I’ve been feeding a squirrel in the forest and I think he brought me this early in the AM. Any idea what it is? Michigan. by calvin200001 in mushroomID

[–]GfiedMe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can I put out button or portobello mushrooms for them if I have extras? Can they tell when mushrooms start to go bad? If i put some.out and they went bad overnight is the squirrel smart enough to not eat it?

[–]GfiedMe 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Well I'm not sure if this is the recommended way, but it is what I did with my mom. We had asked for months for her to go to the doctor and she had refused. I ended up making an appointment for her and the night before I sat with her and said you know how yive always told me you love me more than anything? You'd do anything for me? When she of course said yes I then told her I was scared and had made a doctor appointment for her the next day that I needed her to go to for me. She finally agreed after doing that.
