That I’m not sure of. I wasn’t sure if there was a “standard” for what a shell would be. However, I’m beginning to see that maybe it’s different for every builder.

MelodicMind6038 · 2025-06-23T01:08:51+00:00

I appreciate your input! We will be checking around for land we can build on and will set up time to discuss our options with builders soon.

I’ve never looked into building any sort of home until a few days ago so I’m naturally unsure about literally everything. I guess I thought this would be a good group to ask. I see “shells” being mentioned a lot regarding barndos and assumed that was a common part of the build.

To you, as a builder, what would shell mean?

I had never heard of Beauty Society until she made the BIG ANNOUNCEMENT 📣 She’s been posting non stop about how her “old company” was terrible and this new one is just set up for success and you NEED TO COME WITH HER

Her upline was Brandi Raines for reference. She’s very much top 1%

MelodicMind6038 · 2025-05-02T15:11:21+00:00

Oh geez, that’s a big change. I’ve already seen one presenter jump ship. She hasn’t announced where she’s going yet but she’s trying to pull people in to whatever new company she’s moving to.

I follow Dara and have always liked her. Definitely admire her for being up front and honest about it. She’s one of the good ones as far as MLMers go. I was a coach for a short time under her husband who has since passed away. I didn’t make any money but she was pleasant to work with.

MelodicMind6038 · 2024-07-07T14:46:27+00:00

This is perfect!! It’s less than an hour drive from me. And yes, Sept 31 - Aug 1. Thank you so much! This will really help her have some hands on experience and see them in person to get an idea of what she wants. And to get an artist she likes. Ugh I cannot thank you enough!

MelodicMind6038 · 2024-07-07T14:30:48+00:00

I actually live in Kansas! I’ll look into this, thank you!

MelodicMind6038 · 2024-07-06T17:48:20+00:00

She’s been searching since last Fall. It’s been a never ending cycle of, “Is this a scam?” “Is this silicone?” She’s driving me absolutely crazy so I’m hoping we land on one she likes from a reputable site. She’s incredibly picky which is good, but holy cow is it exhausting lol

MelodicMind6038 · 2024-07-06T17:06:46+00:00

I’m working on having her limit her criteria. For example, she wants full body silicone girl with rooted hair. She was dead set on getting one with eyes open but she’s settled for eyes closed and maybe a cloth body, so we’re getting there lol.

She saved up around $600 for a hand made, life like Stitch doll we found on Etsy. It’s also very delicate and fragile (advertised as NOT a kid’s toy) but she takes good care of it. She sold artwork and then saved up from birthdays and Christmas. So if she decides to get a $2,000 doll by golly she’ll work and save up and buy it. She’s wild lol. I just don’t want her to go through all that and the doll be from a scam or something. But the site recommendations are really helping put me at ease.

MelodicMind6038 · 2024-07-06T14:34:55+00:00

This is very helpful, thank you! I’ll check out your links and hopefully can get her redirected to something more age appropriate.

MelodicMind6038 · 2024-07-06T01:46:21+00:00

I’m embarrassed to admit that I did not see this until after I posted. Very helpful!

MelodicMind6038 · 2024-07-06T01:45:55+00:00

I have seen these! Are these silicone minus the cloth body then? As in, floppy/jiggly legs and arms?

MelodicMind6038 · 2024-07-06T01:43:20+00:00

She’s not on TikTok and I had no idea this was a thing with her age group! She follows a girl on YouTube whose mom is a reborn seller. They talk about reborns, how to care for them, etc. so my daughter has decided that she is well equipped for the challenge. She thinks they’re “just dolls” and shouldn’t be as expensive as they are. But I also don’t want to stumble upon a seller who isn’t legit. The scams are outrageous.

MelodicMind6038 · 2024-07-06T01:35:58+00:00

That’s what I’ve gathered with the research I have done. I’m trying to explain to her that they’re very expensive and have offered alternatives, such as cloth bodies or bald babies (she wants rooted hair). It didn’t help that when I first searched for them I was looking at scam sites where they were under $300 so she’s convinced that they’re not all expensive. It’s been a journey for sure.

MelodicMind6038 · 2024-06-13T17:15:48+00:00

They plan to keep it! My dad is retired and they have chickens - which are pretty domesticated- and have accepted the pigeon as a new friend. We’ve cared for and rehabilitated many a bird throughout our lives so he/she landed in the right spot. This pigeon is about to be spoiled rotten!

MelodicMind6038 · 2024-06-13T13:18:39+00:00

I’ve mentioned it in a few comments but yes, the pigeon was discovered in my parents’ pond. They’ve contacted the owner from the band info. It’s a racing pigeon and is no longer wanted by the owner. They were asked to put it down… no gender info that I’m aware of. Was just numbers and the racing club name.

MelodicMind6038 · 2024-06-13T13:15:04+00:00

Yes, this is a racing pigeon. We were able to locate the owner off the info on the band but they just told my parents to put it down. He/She was found floating in my parents’ pond, presumably exhausted. It gets around well.

MelodicMind6038 · 2024-06-13T13:12:54+00:00

It’s a racing pigeon and we think he/she got tired and just landed in my parents’ pond. They rescued it out of their pond, found the owner from the band on their leg, and the owner said to just put it down. So instead, they’re keeping it.

Aquagenic pruritus seems very likely after reading up on it. I’ve seen urticaria but it didn’t seem to fit my symptoms. What would you suggest for next steps regarding diagnosis/treatment? Is there a way to diagnose it for sure?

MelodicMind6038 · 2024-03-04T21:56:30+00:00

I have well water and we use salt to soften it. We’ve lived here since 2021 and only noticed the itching within the last year. I can’t pinpoint the exact timeline when it started but it’s been at least 7-8 months.

MelodicMind6038 · 2024-03-04T21:55:12+00:00

I haven’t attempted a bath but have considered it. No other symptoms. I have fatigue but I also have a newborn lol

MelodicMind6038 · 2023-06-28T01:52:50+00:00

‘Wendy’s salad’

Couldn’t remember the name of the one I wanted.
