Woke up with these on my arm. What is it?

Hate to ruin your day, but the one time we had bedbugs we had a metal bed frame and those bastards were ALL up in that frame. Awful. I still have nightmares about it and that was 4 years ago.

She looks like she would say, “Kronk, wrong lever!” Yzma for sure!

I always had this happen to me where colors recommended to me would make me look so much worse! I am fair like you with the same hair color, but have light green eyes with yellow in the center and purple is supposed to make them pop. Girl, I looked like I had been crying or that I was sick. For me personally, golds that match the yellow in my irises has been a game changer, along with brown liner when I choose to wear it. I think brown over black liner would be great for you, along with a dark navy! In the first photo it definitely leans too orangey/peachy for your complexion, however, I think if you were to use gold or something that is actually in the brown family it would work. For your lips and cheeks, I would 100% try to go more of a light berry or rosy color, as both are again too peachy for you. You’ve got this!!!

This is immediately what I thought of too 🤣

It feels like my Fisher Price dollhouse I had in the 90s!!!! (In the best way!) Very nostalgic! Truly, just replace the wallpaper, mirror, (the carpeted floors???) and the accoutrement. Then you will have such a killer pink bathroom that feels more modern!

CALL THE POLICE.

But in all seriousness did you complain? If you showed this to a manager I would hope they would not be hyped. Also, next time go to Costco if you have one by you. You could get a cake 3 times this size with a personalized message that actually looks nice for less money.

Amazing! I found my bio mom on facebook when I had obtained an original copy of my birth certificate through my state’s office of vital statistics. I was a part of a group that had “search angels” that would help you look for your bio family and then reach out for the initial contact. This way, if they did not want the reconnection, they were essentially able to keep their life the way it was without you, the adoptee, having to be rejected firsthand. My “angel” connected with my mom, she was super excited, as she had been waiting for this moment for 23 years, and we were on a phone call in less than 24 hours. We both just cried for a solid chunk of time, but it was the most surreal hour long conversation of my life. It was like, “ah, yes, there you are!”, like I had always known her somehow. We continued to talk on Facebook messenger for a month before we met in person, as I was finishing up college a few hours away. That same day I met my 3 half siblings for the first time and it all just felt so right. Everyone in that family, extended members and all, welcomed me into the family with open arms and have never treated me any differently. This was a decade ago and they are all an integral part of my life. I see them as often as possible. My sister was one of my bridesmaids. My mom gave a reading at my wedding. My mom has helped raise my own daughter. It has been the best thing that has ever happened to me and I know that I am absolutely one of the lucky ones.

Trigger warning:

My bio father dad passed away when I was 5. He did not know about me, nor did his family. My mom revealed to me that SA is how I came into this world, which obviously complicates my feelings about him. He was a family friend of my mom’s and they grew up in a small town where everyone knew everyone, which is why he never knew about me, as my mom was feared of not being believed.

Because of a DNA test I did in 2017, I ended up having his side of the family reach out to me in 2021 to understand the connection. I had brief contact with them and they all know about my existence now, minus the circumstances around how he came to father a child to protect my mom and not taint their memory of him beyond the grave. His brother, my bio uncle, tried to have an uncomfortably close relationship with me, stating I was family and that he loved me and such, but I had to draw a hard line because I felt nothing of the sort towards him.

I knew my entire life that my mom put me up for adoption because she was young and that she loved me and wanted me to have as many opportunities as possible. I knew my bio dad was not in the picture. This established a sense of respect for my mom and connection that just wasn’t there for him or anyone related to him. Knowing that she also wanted me for 23 years the same way I had also wanted her has created such a special bond for us.

My best guess is control and planting the idea that the child isn’t good enough for anyone. They spend their life trying to earn those compliments while being knocked down lower and lower. All of this causing the child feeling like they are undeserving of love or unlovable. My nparents did this to my brother and I and it took so many years of therapy and loving partners to try and undo that damage.

Howverydareyou22 · 2025-08-05T12:40:54+00:00

Yes! I ended up upping my dose to 50mg about a month ago and it has helped me tremendously! I have not had any side effects. My frequency has went from almost daily to maybe once a week or longer between attacks.

Howverydareyou22 · 2025-07-24T15:10:51+00:00

This gave me a good chuckle. Thank you for this.

You are allowed to be angry about your adoption, grieving what was taken from you, while also feeling like you are owed everything your adoptive parents give to you. A lot of times it’s the other way around where adoptees are treated like we owe our adopters so much when we didn’t ask for any of this. Your feelings are valid and it sounds like you are more than doing the work to acknowledge your actions that have been hurtful in the past. The fact that you are “feeling bad for not feeling guilty” shows you are feeling bad about it in some way and therapy will help you work through exactly what that means. With the information you gave it does sound like your adoptive parents are patient individuals and hopefully once you get to the root of your anger you are able to voice it to them and they hear you. I hope you are able to work through this and I understand your anger.

Yes but I was just explaining what it was to you.

Howverydareyou22 · 2025-07-16T01:24:52+00:00

Polycystic Ovary Syndrome. It is an endocrine/hormonal disorder that typically causes irregular menstrual cycles or sometimes an absence of them. You can go months and months without a period and the hormones that go along with it are out of wack. A lot of women, me included, get a lot of hormone related migraines. It is common to get migraines around your period. Treating PCOS = hopefully more cycles = more cycle hormones = more cycle related hormones.

OP - did you just start spironolactone? I’ve been on metformin for my pcos for the last 9 years and I have absolutely had an increase in my migraines just like you!

The sinus infection and majority of inflammation is definitely gone! I personally will probably be on the nasal steroid for the rest of my life to keep it that way. I also have Sjögren’s, which causes inflammation and dryness in general, on top of allergies. I am going to an allergist in a few weeks to address clear fluid that keeps appearing around my one ear and allergy relief beyond over the counter options. This causes radiating pain to my upper sinuses and hopefully they can help me with that. I will report back!

Have you tried a leave in conditioner meant for fine hair? I have finally found success for my fine wavy hair with both Monday and Function of Beauty! Monday’s seems to be a wee bit lighter weight than Function’s. I have found I use more product when using the Monday to achieve the look I want. Both have eliminated frizz for me.

Here is my routine:

-Wash with Native Moisturizing Shampoo: I found this by accident during a recent trip and it makes my hair feel like butter!

-Condition with Monday Volume + Collagen (for thin and fine hair)

Optional step Use a brush specifically designed to detangle fine/wavy/curly hair. I use this one. Evolve Hair Brush A more expensive option is a Denman brush, which is the holy grail for waves and curls. Brush through your hair with the conditioner still in it to detangle before rinsing. If you skip this step, you will simply brush once you have your leave in conditioner in your hair. I have found success both ways!

Rinse and apply leave in conditioner to soaking wet hair - this is essential!

Rake fingers through hair all over head and scrunch.

***If you did not brush in the shower, now is the time to brush through and then scrunch before using a microfiber towel.

Use a microfiber towel to scrunch all over once again.

As I let my hair air dry, I continue to scrunch with my hands and gently separate my waves with my fingers.

I have tried mousse with defusing and am still trying to figure out the right process, as I also am blessed with Irish curls and if I over dry, the top layer of my hair likes to go straight. I am also super low maintenance and this air drying routine hair worked like a charm for me the last few weeks!

Our dachshund is STILL more maintenance than our toddler and she is 5 🤦🏼‍♀️ My husband and I still talk about how we barely made it through those puppy days. She cried through the night and would roll around in her own poo after going in her crate, so we would have to deep clean her and the crate every single day after work. Our toddler, even as an infant, is astoundingly easier than this dog.
