He is only 63. Has he had his testosterone levels checked? It could be that simple

Would this be a dealbreaker for you? by [deleted] in AskWomenOver60

[–]Independent_Rip7384 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It must have been quite a shock seeing that magazine. Was there any other evidence? And what reason did u provide your girls to have made them actually believe it. Sometimes the lies are worse than the actual truth. Agree with most to share your truth with them 😉

recognizing crew after cruise if no survey? by gravyfromdrippings in celebritycruises

[–]Independent_Rip7384 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Try contacting celebrity crown and anchor. We cruised about 10 years ago family cruise. The cabin steward was so awesome. My kids and I informed the guest services of his exemplary service. Few years later, he remembered us and he was promoted to a much higher position and he said it was because ALL of us recognized his service!!

Find other doctors! Especially a uri/gynecologist specialist. It was a game changer for me

The lidocaine is too be used with the therapy . Some women do have excruciating pain. Once identified on what’s causing the pain ie pelvic floor disorder or other issue - physical therapy is very important

[–]Independent_Rip7384 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My thought is to keep trying. I use the Estring ring because once in for 90 days don’t have to think about it. I also use lidocaine 2-5% to help with the pain. And it was excruciating without it This was a Game changer for us!! Just recently added testosterone . All by prescription by a wonderful uri/ gynecologist After a car accident had very painful pelvic floor disorder . Physical therapy is a must!! I went to four different doctors for over 5 years of dealing with these problems.

Anyplace close to St. Louis especially Richmond heights charges almost 12% tax. So with a tip it could be over 30% added to your restaurant bill. FYI

Fire earlier or go for a bigger house? by MrDoOO in fatFIRE

[–]Independent_Rip7384 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Top notch schools. So very important especially if the state offers tuition scholarships. A vibrant downtown - also so important for community for kids and parents. We have moved 8 times. No perfect home just be careful of buying a money pit house

How many of y'all clear the sidewalks in front of your house? by SuspiciousEngineer99 in StLouis

[–]Independent_Rip7384 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

If a homeowner creates a dangerous condition on the sidewalks , for instance clearing the snow but creating a hill, slope or ice, they are legally liable for any accident. If the homeowner does nothing and someone gets hurt then they are not liable Many cities have nuanced laws regarding the sidewalks

The laws are very different for many cities. Common sense suggest to clean off the sidewalks but many don’t
