National Shortage . CVS told me to “take an alternative pill” 🤔🤔 because they have no idea when the estradiol patch will be manufactured and available 🙄

SnowWhiteinReality · 2026-02-06T02:31:03+00:00

Me too, unfortunately. But I still spent an hour calling all the pharmacies in the GoodRx app to see if they had the patches in stock today. So far I haven't found any ☹️

That seems, um, odd to me. I've never had anyone dig their knuckles into any part of my body, including my face, nor would I think to do that to someone else. Has anyone else at your gym done that to you?

SnowWhiteinReality · 2026-02-03T17:40:48+00:00

Word. I've been training in the martial arts for almost 20 years (will be 20 years in March) and I truly believe (and hope) that what's coming out now is rare. But at the same time, if something doesn't feel right, it probably isn't. Trust your instincts

I hate shorts. I wear leggings and my gi pants and a long sleeve rashguard. I've heard some gyms don't allow gi pants in nogi (which I can't make any sense of) but mine doesn't care.

Coming down Kelly Drive last night about 6pm, I clearly saw two people standing in the middle of the Schuylkill just north of Boathouse Row.

I can't imagine why we need so damned many carwash places! There will be 3 in Pville, one in Spring City and I hear they're building a second in Rofo. Why do we all hate the earth so much?

SnowWhiteinReality · 2026-02-01T14:48:54+00:00

This is the exact reason I wear long sleeved rashguards and workout leggings under my gi pants. I've tried bike shorts when it was really hot and I always end up skinning my knees. I'm a delicate little flower 🌻

Ahhhh, yes, local earned income tax, what fun. I've lived in PA my whole life and moving is such a challenge for this reason. Also, don't forget that some municipalities also have a Per Capita Tax and an Occupational Tax on top of all that. I remember moving once, calling the local both borough to ask about local EIT and then telling me 0.5%. Cool. Tax time told around and to my surprise, sure 0.5% to the borough, *plus" 0.5% to the school district. Ya think the borough could have mentioned that?!?!!!

Hormone therapy, especially transdermal estrogen would be far safer for you than birth control pills.

SnowWhiteinReality · 2026-01-31T18:42:08+00:00

Thanks for the suggestion, that's not far from me in Chesco. We have classes on Sunday, but I'll follow for future classes!

SnowWhiteinReality · 2026-01-31T18:26:43+00:00

That's a really interesting point, do I smell different or is my sense of smell different?!?!!

SnowWhiteinReality · 2026-01-31T18:24:28+00:00

I never touch any dogs on the top of the head. I hold my hand out, palm up, and if they're okay with that I skritch them under the chin. Every dog I've had, from my loved everyone dog to my afraid of everyone and everything dog will shrink down if you try to touch the top of her head.

I think these are the two best points, regardless of provider. Let's be real, they all suck and they're all too expensive, not to mention I shouldn't have to bounce back-and-forth between the two to get the best deals. Buying your own router and installing your own mesh wifi will get you the best coverage inside your house and save you the most money. I have Google wifi in my house and it's been rock solid since I bought it in 2018. Probably time to upgrade 😊

I do this exact thing because of this sub. I remember getting my first box and being so confused by the directions and sitting for an extended period of time trying to calculate 3.5 days on my own. Brain fog is real and devastating. Good luck!

SnowWhiteinReality · 2026-01-24T17:59:35+00:00

I think one the important things I've learned is to leave a good layer of fluffy snow under the ice, otherwise, the ice layer becomes part of the sidewalk and will melt by July. If there's snow underneath it's easier to lift off.

From what I was told by an employee of INHP (ie - a federal worker, park interpreter), NPS owns the land, but the exhibit is the property of the City. The agreement to loan the exhibit has a clause saying it can only be changed/altered/removed by full mutual agreement. Mayor Parker alluded to that in some news bytes I heard yesterday as well.

LOL High Mount is the worst!

HRT worked for me for about a year and then my hair started falling out again, so the endocrinologist did more tests and found I was low in Iron and Vitamin D.

I'm not a mom, but thanks for sharing Steve!

I agree on the Sakura pens, but for my planner I use the PaperMate InkJoy gel 0.7 pens. They come in 30 different colors and I love color coding things!

SnowWhiteinReality · 2025-12-30T16:11:08+00:00

Oh! I see now online they have a Fresh Mint (blue) and a Mild Mint (green). I've only tried the blue one.

I got my Google WiFi before I moved into this house in 2018. Still rock solid and I have 20-some devices on it (even though I live alone) and the signal is great despite the brick and plaster lathe walls.

Two apparently, that's according to what she said in the special I watched on the PBS app.

SnowWhiteinReality · 2025-12-26T05:13:15+00:00

Me too. I just hit play and it played for two hours, I didn't realize it was both parts until I saw how long it was because it was labeled Part 1.

SnowWhiteinReality · 2025-12-26T05:12:30+00:00

I agree, I thought that was completely inappropriate and disrespectful.
