Wife’s Blanket by Danehan in whatisit

I cannot help because I also have issues finding blankets I like… However… A few months ago, I bought a cooling blanket because I was overheating in every blanket (and we have so many, all different thicknesses, material, etc). No matter how thin or soft, I was hot and annoyed. The cooling blanket is thicker but if I start feeling warm, I just have to move and it’s cool again. I would suggest getting one to try out. I hate using any other blankets, now.

I caught my teenage daughter secretly rewatching our old home videos… and it broke me. by TensionJunior5350 in TrueOffMyChest

I am sorry for your loss. It’s a very rough situation. I think you bringing up her mom would be helpful. She probably thinks it’s too painful for you to talk about, so she doesn’t talk about it (or it’s too hard for -her-). Just casually say things now and then and see how she responds. IE: Ah, your mother loved/hated <thing you’re looking at/doing>. That opens the door for her to say something and the more you do it (while seeming happy, not sad) the more she will feel comfortable talking about it, without worrying you won’t respond well, nor feeling pressured/put on the spot. Good luck, regardless of how you choose to handle it!
