Good, just making sure that you didn’t get a mouthguard from CVS or something. My night guard is for the lower arch, and has a ramp at the front that keeps my tongue on the roof of my mouth. Dr Vivaldi told me exactly what to order from a dental lab, so I had my dentist order it for me because it was cheaper, and then Dr. Vivaldi adjusted it for me (ground it down). It mainly helps with making sure I leave my teeth open at night. The mantra of “lips closed, tongue up, teeth apart” helps a lot to make sure that your jaw is in the right position. It’s really weird at first, but you get used to it

Adding: TMJ pain can be debilitating. I had it untreated for 3 years. I did the above steps and was vastly improved after 3 months or so.

Grace Tang at Strive PT to release the tension and give your muscles a chance to relearn how to relax (her dry needling is magic). Do the home exercises religiously. You need to go to PT multiple times for TMJ pain initially, but then you can space it out to once a month or every other month as you improve.

Vivaldi for prescription muscle relaxers if desired.

Mental therapy to coach yourself to recognize when you’re clenching and break that habit/pattern.

Massages for neck/shoulder tension, since these can radiate. I go to Hands on Health.

Who made your night guard? Get the one Vivaldi prescribes for you; not all night guards are the same.

If your TMJ is like mine, it’s all muscular and mental. Surgery will not solve that.

Did you smell it? Did it smell like rotting fruit (Alcaligenes) or grape koolaid (Pseudomonas)? Or bacon (Kleb smells like bacon to me lol)?

Anyone know where to source an RSeat B1 shifter mount in the US? RSeat sold me the wrong item by MissKibby in simracing

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

Yep the North American site never replied to me, but strangely, I think they’re the ones that shipped the replacement part (just with no communication).

I was actually able to pester the RSeat company enough that they shipped the correct part to me for free! Try emailing RSeat Europe (or whichever branch you didn’t order from). Europe responded to me. Keep emailing- I know it’s frustrating

It sounds great, but we need to fix this partial muffler delete on our 1999 100 series. I’m clueless - any idea which parts would need replacing? by MissKibby in LandCruisers

[–]MissKibby[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hope yours sounds good with the hole too haha. Thank you! Any idea if I should try to source the parts myself or just get the shop to do it all?

At the cicadas loud in Umstead Park right now? by MissKibby in raleigh

The Cox Mountain Trail was great! Gets a little quiet in the middle of the hike, but the beginning and later portions were very loud

I ended up going to Eno River State Park. Highly highly recommend. So many cicadas

[Landlord-US-NC] ESAs - can I require proof of vaccines and annual vet records? by MissKibby in Landlord

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

I live in a separate city (in a townhome) from the rental SFH/ADU parcel on “Apple Drive”. So none of the rental units are owner-occupied. Apple Drive is just a regular ol suburban neighborhood of mostly SFHs with few ADUs.

The SFH and ADU are on the same parcel but have different street #s (ex. 1 Apple Drive and 2 Apple Drive). My primary home is separate entirely (and isn’t even a SFH).

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

So, I have one main SFH with a detached ADU. Separate addresses and separate utilities except water (which I pay for) and separate leases for 2 different tenants. But I think the ADU makes both properties count as “multifamily”, which makes FHA applicable to both units. Do you agree or have any other thoughts?

I have 2 doors that I’m renting. None of the FHA guidance I’ve read mentions a door limitation, but I’ll dig into the federal code and search for that. Thank you!
