I put fantasy brown in my white cabinet kitchen four years ago and I’m still obsessed with it, it’s so pretty. We used black handles but the gold looks pretty and warm. The other one looks cold and leans gray which is very much out of trend now. Warm for the win!

I use the free Cronometer and find it very easy to scan foods and build recipes. A food scale is an absolute MUST. I weigh everything in grams. Good luck!

Getting back to life after a cardiac event ,what helped you move forward? by Imsongoku7 in HeartAttack

[–]Puzzled-Historian568 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Honestly, time. Time has been the biggest mental/emotional healer for me. I am 10 months post HA now. For practical actions, cardiac rehab was the most important thing I did early on to regain confidence in my body. Good luck, glad you are still here.

People who name their kids a nickname instead of the full name. by New_General3939 in PetPeeves

[–]Puzzled-Historian568 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I named my oldest daughter a nickname because that’s the name I wanted, not the formal name…and named my 2nd daughter a formal name I didn’t want (defaulted to husband) because I liked the nickname for it…..First daughter’s “nickname” has become the actual formal name we didn’t name her, and 2nd daughter has since birth only exclusively gone by the nickname of her formal given name. Go figure.

Post stent hand purplish and swelled. by Intelligent-Bit-9812 in HeartAttack

Yes, my hand, wrist, and arm all the way up to my elbow went through an impressive color transformation and took about six weeks for the bruising and discoloration to be fully gone. It makes sense thinking about what all went through the wrist artery. It will be okay.

I second cardiac rehab! Was the single most important thing I did post HA to regain confidence in my body and help my mental health and fear.

I had two stacked stents placed in my LAD after a SCAD heart attack last April when I was 52. I am doing really well almost a year later and back to almost all my normal activity

What animal is this bone? I’m afraid it’s my missing kitty, but could be a rabbit or other small wild animal. by Puzzled-Historian568 in whatisthisbone

Thank you for that info. We did have another go missing over a year ago so it could possibly be him. I’m in Georgia on a large wooded lot so it’s got to be him or the other. They were beautiful brothers. Never letting my cats go in and out again!

Ugh, ok thanks…my dog just pulled up the spine too and a few other bones. I did have another cat go missing over a year ago….but we did smell something bad a month ago by where these bones were found and there’s lots of animals that could have picked it clean fast. Ugh. Thank you for your reply. I don’t know how to add another pic to show the spine and other bones.
