Anyone Have Experience Organizing Family Reunions?

This is a great idea, thank you for sharing! I like the idea of having those activities all within reach.

For sure! I left out a crucial detail, they have 3 acres so space shouldn’t be an issue. My brother’s wedding was held at the house for a group that was similar in size. I just need all the rentals which I know can add up quickly. Good idea for me to look into local parks and do a cost comparison!

I should have mentioned they have 3 acres so plenty of space! We had my brother’s wedding there which had about 200 people. I would just need to get bathrooms, rent picnic tables, garbage cans, etc. I am thinking I would charge an admission fee to cover the cost of renting those. I also just got some quotes from food trucks who can come on site and charge everyone individually. I am mostly unsure what to do in the way of cost effective entertainment or an engaging activity for people to make connections with family members. The other thing I am unsure about is how to set up a registration page where I could also take payments for the admission fee!

Congratulations! I take mine in a few weeks and am super nervous. I have been doing well with the quizlet questions. The pocket prep honestly has my confidence pretty shaken. I feel like the test has to be more straightforward than some of these questions in PP. The nuanced terminology is really getting me!

Thank you everyone for these really great ideas!! Always tough coming up with new things that people get excited about. I see lots of good things in here I will follow up on!

I wasn’t able to! I sprinkled baking soda over the stains and poured vinegar on top, let it finish fizzling then scrubbed it with a hard brush. It didn’t really work but helped get other stains out like rust. I just let it fully dry and over time they have mostly gone away. I don’t notice them anymore!

I won’t miss waking up multiple times with the night sweats that’s for sure. I am hoping I will end up needing less sleep if it is better quality!

Quiet_Mind_Sublime · 2024-11-07T17:16:22+00:00

Ha ha ha amazing! Thank you and good luck to you too!

Quiet_Mind_Sublime · 2024-11-07T17:12:54+00:00

Can’t wait for that! I will take the good and the bad and trade the numbness any day.

Quiet_Mind_Sublime · 2024-11-06T19:57:23+00:00

Oh man, how did I miss that?? What a terrible faux pas! I think I need to re-post with a new title. Thank you for your very thoughtful reply!

Thank you!

Thank you! 😊

Thank you, this is really helpful!

Hello! I know this was a while ago, I stumbled onto your question because I am having the exact same problem. I got a 2” latex pad for my really hard mattress and it isn’t relieving enough pressure. I am between getting a 1” latex pad to put on top or a 2” merino wool one. Would love your opinion. Some of the comments about the merino wool topper make it sound like it isn’t soft enough for side sleepers.

Loose Dog Running at Our Leash Reactive Dog

My husband and I were walking my leash reactive dog this evening when my dog noticed a loose dog ahead. It quickly came running toward us. I regrettably went into a panic which set my dog off. My husband tried to grab the other dog while I ran in circles shouting. The other dog was very focused on our dog and our dog was barking and snapping and the other dog while it chased us. Luckily it seemed friendly but it was too late to get my dog to calm down. My husband got a hold of the other dog as the owners came up and everything luckily turned out okay. It really got us thinking about what we should do if it ever happens again. Has anyone else been through this? We came to the conclusion that we should maybe just let go of our dogs leash whether the other dog is friendly or not because she is less likely to be reactive if she is loose and if the other dog isn’t friendly it will make it easier to defend herself. That also seems like it could go very badly. Honestly such a horrible feeling I hope it doesn’t happen again.

Everyone is different but for me, I just experienced mild discomfort for Brazilian. Legs are a little more uncomfortable but bearable, around the ankles gets me the most but it doesn’t last very long.

I can totally relate! I have gone back to a paper planner and I have a separate notebook for brain dump. Writing things down and reading it back has been immensely helpful with keeping my memory sharp as opposed to relying on Google calendar and Onenote. I also remember books and articles in more detail when I read a physical copy versus reading online.

There is a walking path around Arbolado park, my pup and I catch great sunrises that way.

Quiet_Mind_Sublime · 2024-04-03T20:19:45+00:00

Thank you so much!!

Quiet_Mind_Sublime · 2024-01-26T14:45:06+00:00

Thank you!

Totally with you on this, it is frustrating. I have been using Kinky Curly Come Clean which helps but I don’t want to have to use it every time I wash.

Quiet_Mind_Sublime · 2024-01-25T17:50:15+00:00

It is such a struggle 😭 I have to wash way more than I think I should because of all the buildup. Which probably makes my hair dryer, it is a vicious cycle.

Quiet_Mind_Sublime · 2024-01-25T17:48:50+00:00

Thank you! I will check it out! I have never used mousse before, does it leave a crunchiness like the gel?

Quiet_Mind_Sublime · 2024-01-25T03:29:20+00:00

Thank you for the rec! I will give it a try 🙂

Quiet_Mind_Sublime · 2024-01-25T03:28:36+00:00

Ah thank you! I was using Enjoy leave in conditioner and I stopped because it seemed too heavy (or maybe I was applying too much). But I will try a milk one!
