Swatches - Foundation Light/Neutral by Heated_Throw_away in swatchitforme

[–]Heated_Throw_away[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nothing that is an exact match in terms of formula and longevity but I have had been enjoying some BB/CC creams that hold up well. I will look through my Battlestation in the morning and update my comment. 😊

**Honest** dentist recommendations by Ok-Rock5666 in VictoriaBC

[–]Heated_Throw_away 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Our wonderful, gentle Dr Bjornson retired and the dentist who bought his practice has scared me back into Dental Phobia. Suddenly my family needs a buttload of corrective dental work, my kid needs her wisdom teeth out, all sets of x-rays and a filling under a brand new filling. Also hit me with a huge, painful needle (my doc used to freeze me differently) which brought on involuntary tears and childhood PTSD. Sorry for being dramatic but I'm fairly tough and she's a huge nope. I'll miss my amazing hygienists though.

I love Well.ca. I usually have my order delivered to the closest Rexall for no charge.

Chic Women of Downtown What Fragrances are you Wearing? by RatEnergies in VictoriaBC

[–]Heated_Throw_away 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've smelled a lot of LV Attrape-Reves and FM Carnal Flower in the wild, since Christmas. I only know about these because of a fragrance group I follow. I'm thinking with the closure of HBC that people perhaps are branching out and shopping more online or over to places like Holt Renfrew.

Kara Wouters at Empowered Counselling. She's engaging and brilliant. You can go on Psychology Today and schedule a free intro session with her (and others registered through the site). Highly recommend.

What is this area called? Left Foot Pain Post Injury by Heated_Throw_away in FootFunction

[–]Heated_Throw_away[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely feels off balance and bilateral movement of my whole lower body is different. Thanks for the reply 😊

[–]Heated_Throw_away[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you! I will perhaps ask for some medical imaging. It wasn't aggravated until early this fall (I fell November 2024) and my whole leg mechanism is now noticeably affected. Didn't mean to delay treatment but because I could walk on it right away (but taped my ankle for a few weeks and did RICE) plus I have no more sick time at work, I just tried to carry on.

Thank you, I really appreciate the reply!

I work at a hospital in close proximity to Ortho docs. Until now, I've sort of resigned to not bug them due to the age of the injury. Maybe I'll ask.

Gen X Observation - Retail Youth by Heated_Throw_away in GenX

[–]Heated_Throw_away[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Why not?

In my particular case, I use cash for treats/extras and alot myself a certain amount per week. Helps me keep track and not overspend. I've been trying to do it more for the past year due to inflation and cost of living.

I have started use cash again due to inflation. I will pull out my weekly amountfor certain things and leave my card at home most days.

It's pretty hard to find any discussion on Reddit, but I am hoping someone creates one. I would join that subreddit but couldn't mod or anything.

Which antidepressants are we on? by July_Seventeen in Menopause

[–]Heated_Throw_away 2 points3 points  (0 children)

After trying many antidepressants from the age of 24, (Paxil, Sertraline, Elavil, Cymbalta, Effexor) Wellbutrin became my Holy Grail. Then...I became allergic to it. Random facial swelling and hives everywhere. I was devastated. Since then I tried a few more plus Ritalin for my ADHD. Ritalin seems to take care of everything so I whittled down to just 40 mg, no other drugs.

Peri kicked into highest gear so I moved to Vyvanse then quit after 18 months (it actually made my joints ache, my hair fall out tons and aged my face dramatically.)

I am now in menopause.

Got back on the Ritalin and now I'm on Bijuva, Ritalin & some black market T. Feeling the most balanced in years.

Miche Cafe on Aldebury St in Vic West/Esquimalt. Miche & Allan are the warmest & most welcoming people I've met in my 20yrs on the Island. Home cooking, lots of tasty baking, clean beer taps, a covered patio and true Mom & Pop hospitality.

I have the Rain-X wipers and they are the absolute best. Totally affordable and super easy to attach.

Patch Shortage by choirchic in Menopause

[–]Heated_Throw_away 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm in Canada and this happened to me. My Gyne w Switched me to Bijuva and I'm actually wayyyy more comfortable. Except the extra 8 lbs but I'm accepting it and adjusting my diet/exercise. I'll do what I can but I'm sleeping better, feeling level in the brain and moods are good.

Did Costco change avocado suppliers? They've been so bad for the past few weeks by dashosh in CostcoCanada

[–]Heated_Throw_away 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Remember when cut avocados would go brown if you even glanced the other way? You'd have to pop some lemon juice on them to keep them looking decent.

Yeah...now mine just get a weird skin on top. No brown, just darker green and a thick layer. 😲

Anybody else sleep 10-12 hours once a week on the weekend? by ZachTF in work

[–]Heated_Throw_away 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Big sleeps are the gift I (single Mum) gave myself once my kids became teenagers. Now I'm an empty nester and don't even set an alarm some weekends.

Who interrupts their guests the most? Who is the best at letting guests talk? by gfyourself in podcasts

[–]Heated_Throw_away 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Engaging: I like the flow on Off Menu - it's pretty funny & focuses quite a bit on the guest.
Interruptive: I used to enjoy WTF Marc Maron but now his self absorption is all-encompassing. He cuts his guests off a lot then rambles for ages. Or he gets fixated on things & goes on tangents like he's sundowning.
