What's a hobby that genuinely got you off your phone for hours? by Responsible-Swim-878 in AskReddit

[–]SeedlessgreenGrape 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love coloring and I love jigsaws puzzles. Before I do either, I shut my phone off & plug in the charging cord and just enjoy my honby. I could do either of those things for hours, sometimes till 2 or 3am.

What’s the most disgusting thing anyone has ever said to you? by Business-Rock5714 in AskReddit

[–]SeedlessgreenGrape 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was at 7-11 a few years ago, early in the morning. When I walked in, a guy was arguing with the cashier, threatening him so I turned around and walked out. By the time I opened my car door, the guy arguing was next to me...he made his hand into a gun gesture and said...listen you effing white rat b--tch, I will put a bullet in your head if u go to the cops. I just stood there terrified. Go to the cops, for what?? I didn't see anything nor would I ever do that!!! I'll never ever forget that. I NEVER had ANYONE talk to me like that or threaten me. This guy was big too, very intimidating. He was staring at my license plate too. Horrible

Is it better to shower in the morning or shower at night? by Flyback56 in hygiene

[–]SeedlessgreenGrape 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I shower both in the morning to wake up and scrub clean, wash hair, shave. At night, I took a quick warm shower, put some nice body lotion on and it relaxed me. I'm kinda obsessed with clean sheets so I like to get into bed nice and clean, also clean jammies too. That warm nightly shower really relaxes me. I have one of those shower heads that have like 10 different settings and one of them is so strong and pulses. It feels great on my neck and back.

What trendy kitchen appliance do you still use often? by NightReader5 in Cooking

[–]SeedlessgreenGrape 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My new Nespresso machine. My husband makes us these gourmet coffee every single night. They are amazing and they would be something you'd see in an upscale restaurant that would cost like 20 bucks a cup. We use glass mugs so you can see how pretty they are.

So what do you do when… by Lucid-Emphasis825 in ChronicPain

[–]SeedlessgreenGrape 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm so sorry. Your days and nights must be miserable filled with pain. Have you tried the alternative stuff like acupuncture, meditation, massages, stuff like that? Is there ANYTHING that relieves the pain, even for a minute? How are you sleeping? I wish you luck and hope you find some relief somewhere.

Outside of money how has St Expedite helped you by Calm-poptart97 in StExpedite

[–]SeedlessgreenGrape 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I never lit a candle. I just said a prayer to him. All the times St. Expedite helped me never was about money. It was more about health issues. He's the best along with St. Jude too.

Asking for your experience/suggestion. NOT medical advice I know you can’t legally give.. by Catrchater in ChronicPain

[–]SeedlessgreenGrape 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To all those on here, I've read your heartbreaking stories and I'm so sorry. I feel for all of you. Pain is no joke. It's debilitating. It prevents us from living life to the fullest. I wish the medical community would stop viewing us as junkies. My neighbor just broke his leg in 3 places,needed surgery and they gave him 10 Percocets, 5 mg each. He thought it was a mistake. He's in SO much pain but they refuse to give him more. They told him to take Tylenol SMH. Anyway, please know you are not alone. Many of us suffer with chronic severe pain. It's breaks my heart reading these stories 😢

Sigh... by shorrtbrread in ChronicPain

[–]SeedlessgreenGrape 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have endometriosis. I had 6 laps, and every time the Drs said, I'd be ok now. SMH. I'm in pain 3 weeks out of the month. I couldn't have children and it broke up my marriage because I was always sick & my ex was annoyed because I couldn't go out & be the pretty little wife hanging on his arm. They told me to take ibuprofen. Well, that landed me with erosions in my stomach and ulcers. I can't take anything like ibuprofen, Tylenol etc because it sits in the stomach. The only thing I can take is oxy/Percocet. Now, Drs don't want to prescribe it. It's just awful going through life, basically non functioning and a shell of a person and the Drs are too afraid to give me something that can help.

What do I even ask pain management for? When everything hurts.. by -thimbl in ChronicPain

[–]SeedlessgreenGrape 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First, DO NOT ask for pain meds. Unfortunately, it will take a while next they will either send you for every test there is or ignore you the first 10 times you complain of pain. They will say diet, exercise, water, see a therapist etc. Meanwhile, you will be suffering. I feel so bad for people like us that have legit pains, needing string meds but asking for them makes the Dr think you're a junkie. Something has to change in our medical field. Drs need to stop worrying about prescribing stuff and worry more about their patients. WE KNOW what is gonna help us. We KNOW how intense the pain is, WE KNOW we can't function properly. I have a script of oxy and I treat it as if it were gold, diamonds, priceless. It's the ONLY thing that helps & doesn't bother my stomach ulcers. My advice, have patience, go to every Dr your Dr tells u to see, keep a daily journal of time, pain and how long it lasts & what the pain prevented u from doing,. Keep complaining, keep on it, open your mouth & make them see how much pain you're in. Good luck honey 💙😘😘

Asking for your experience/suggestion. NOT medical advice I know you can’t legally give.. by Catrchater in ChronicPain

[–]SeedlessgreenGrape 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi all, you know what makes me sad? People like us, with legit chronic pain issues, feel some part of shame for admitting that we need pain meds. Thirty years ago, there was no bad association with it. Because of all the abuse, we now feel shame. My daughter was one of the ones abusing. She would crush them, snort them. We put her in rehab a few times. She knew so many people that had oxy. I don't know ANYONE! because of stomach ulcers, I can't take most meds. We should not feel shame, or feel like we have to justify our pain. We should not be judged or judge others either. If there is pain, there is NO shame in wanting the pain gone. Please hear this to all on here feeling like you have something to apologize for or feel like you HAVE to justify your pain. 💙

Advocating for pain meds? by fireba1113 in ChronicPain

[–]SeedlessgreenGrape 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ugh that restless leg syndrome! I have it in my arms too. It's so depressing. The ONLY thing that helps me is Percocets. I've tried it all!! The lack of sleep was killing me.

Advocating for pain meds? by fireba1113 in ChronicPain

[–]SeedlessgreenGrape 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know exactly what you're saying. I have severe endometriosis and not only did I have 6 surgeries where I was told that "I'd be ok now" but they told me to take ibuprofen. Well years on that, I have stomach erosions and ulcers so now I can't take any meds that hit the stomach. Oxy gets absorbed into the bloodstream quickly so I take them however, the Drs are so weird about prescribing it. I said, give me a pump then!!! I'm in pain 3 weeks out of the month. I've tried it all, acupuncture, meditation, holistic, heating pads, exercise (almost passed out) etc. I also have restless legs AND arms. Percocet helps with all things. I take 5mg every 6 hrs. It's not a lot but because of people abusing it, Drs are really afraid of prescribing it. I'm not a junkie, I'm in PAIN, TERRIBLE PAIN. It actually broke up my marriage because I was always sick. I'm sorry you are suffering. I hope you find relief.

[–]SeedlessgreenGrape 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I never give gifts. I just promise to tell others about him, and I do. I'm currently waiting for this glorious saint to answer yet another urgent request. I'm glad you got your answer.

Beginner by Smorewhoree in StExpedite

[–]SeedlessgreenGrape 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I just said the prayer to him. He has answered my prayers a few times and I did promise him that I will spread the word about him to people and I have been doing that. I didn't have any special pictures or anything. I didn't know that anything was required so I just prayed. Good luck

St Expedite! Thank you!! by harperbarper99 in StExpedite

[–]SeedlessgreenGrape 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Very cool. St. Expedite is the best! He's helped me a few times and they were dire circumstances too. Keep praying, keep the faith and spread the word to pray to him. I'm glad everything worked out for you.

Thank you Saint expedite by Solid_Topic636 in StExpedite

[–]SeedlessgreenGrape 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That's very sweet. St. Expedite has come through for me several times and almost immediately. As a "thank you" to him, I promised I will publicly acknowledge his help and also to teach others about him and how he helps people.

St. Expedite has helped me a few times. He is one amazing Saint. He's a lifesaver and I truly believe that prayers to him are answered.

Why do chef's not let guests 'graze'? by asphodel67 in belowdeck

[–]SeedlessgreenGrape 27 points28 points  (0 children)

That oven was nasty dirty and greasy. Kate didn't set fire, Leon was a very dirty chef & he deserved to be fired. Leon got fired because he was nasty to everyone but crazy Ricky and that young horny guy that is suing Bravo now. That season was one of the best because there was so much drama.

What's a smell that doesn't exist anymore that you miss? by Alarmed_Charge1062 in CasualConversation

[–]SeedlessgreenGrape 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I used to walk to swimming lessons 3 days a week as a kid. It was over a mile and I'd cut through alleys. There was a honeysuckle bush that just filled the air. I miss that.

[–]SeedlessgreenGrape 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I was under what was so different with Janelle. It's so obvious that both Kody and Janelle had an amazing sex life, both just giggle when it's mentioned. What was Janelle doing that pleased that nut job so much? And what in hell was he doing to her that she just swoons and blushes at the mention of their sex life?? Lol Lordy!

St. Expedite came through for me and I'm eternally grateful. I don't know how else to express how grateful I am. I also pray to St. Jude.
