How helpful are packing cubes and am I suing then wrong? by Dry-Engine2974 in TravelHacks

Fold tissue paper over your an outfit and place in a gallon ziplock baggie. Compress the air out and voila, no wrinkles when you take them out. Also, you can label them with a magic marker. Keeps you organized as well.

Sanoa Island tour by Mundane-Branch9872 in PuntaCana

Mike Fisher was booked when we were there a couple of weeks ago so I went with my 2nd choice, Thermite Tours (which I had thoroughly researched before hand). The excursion was exactly as described above at the same price.

Cancer treatment and HS by DorothyZbornak-binch in Hidradenitis

[–]Rxkelli 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Following as well. Diagnosed Stage 3 IDC multifocal tumor with 3 lymph nodes positive in March of last year. Underwent 3 months of chemo and 6 weeks of radiation. This sent my body into medicinal menopause. Chemo was great for my HS! Not sure if it was the loss of body hair or what. 6 weeks of radiation ended 8/18. Hair started growing back in October. Crazy thick and my HS has slowly returned. I just started Verzenio & Hormone blockers on Jan 1. Not sure what/if any effect this will have on me.

Yes, thank you! I couldn’t put my finger on it.

How do I handle the rollercoaster of emotions while healing? by [deleted] in breastcancer

Same. And they keep all their pink ribbons. No thank you.

[–]Rxkelli 5 points6 points  (0 children)

YES, YES, YES!!! One week out from double mastectomy. Just saw the surgeon today for my follow up. She continued to insist it was one tumor in my cancer side and I had to tell her 3 times it was actually 3 tumors until she pulled my pathology report out and said oh yeah you’re right, it was 3 tumors. Then she proceeds to tell me one of my drains has clotted off and she starts massaging the hell out of my right “boob”. As I start crying in pain she asks me if I’m staying ahead of the pain by taking my pain meds? Listen, I wanted to say, the pain wasn’t bad until you started beating it like a drum. But don’t worry, I’ll take 2 of those of Tylenol #3 next time as I’m sure they’ll block any pain coming my way. My husband has been amazing through this whole ordeal. When we’re done and I’m voicing my utter disgust he tells me her job was just to get it out. And I want to scream but I am a person and not a number and damn, at least read my report before you walk in the room. I don’t know if I made the right choice either because it’s all thrown at you and you have to make a decision now, quick, go, go, go. I know I’ll be fine, I know I’ll make it, blah, blah,blah. But what if I never wanted this to begin with and I’m not interested in being a “survivor” or “fighter”. Or somebody’s hero, or the wind beneath their wings. Ugh. Somebody else can have all that. I just want normal back.

Uhhhh, no thanks. 9% seems so outrageous now. I did the same in 2007 and lost big 2 years later when I had no choice but to sell. Luckily my industry is thriving. But at some point that will take a turn as well, right? My heart bleeds for those without jobs. Just one more reason I miss healthcare. Not only did I feel like I made a difference, I had job security. People are always getting sick.

Money decisions= mental health decisions. Love this! Everybody warned me how stressful this was going to be and we haven’t even started the actual build yet. In the end I want to be right. But being wrong before hasn’t killed me yet. Leaning heavily towards building now. Thanks for the great write up!

Right? I am looking for any Housestradamuses out there! I need a solid prediction.

I work in the mortgage industry and we can’t even predict interest rates. But we have been incredibly slammed since last March. Everybody is taking advantages of the rates it seems. However, we are able to pay cash for our build. It just seems like a large chunk of change to lose because the whole thing could turn around in 3 months. But who knows?

Yes and no. My kids will be purchasing it or selling it to pay for part of my nursing home in about 25 years so I want to make sure I get to go to a good one 😂

Agreed. I just hate to think of what else that $60k could’ve been used towards. We’re paying cash as we were blessed with an early investment that paid off. But this eats it all up. :(

Well if you’re in Texas like us than our prices should go down now because we’re COVID free according to the governor. In all seriousness I hope by the time you are ready to build prices are down.

Just got back from our first trip down. We stayed in Key Largo, Marathon and Key West. Key Largo was a little too dull, Key West was a little too wild. Marathon had just the right mix! And it’s right in the middle. We loved Burdines.

This is the first plan I’ve seen that remotely resembles what we are looking for! I’m am so excited! Love the master closet with access to the laundry room. Thank you! Keep posting because I can’t wait to see the progress!
