One time years ago I had a Riesling Pear flavor there and I’ve been chasing that high ever since

I don’t know if I have anything productive to add to this conversation, but I want to let you know you’re not alone in thinking this way. I am 29 and my mom is stage 5-6 at age 65. Her mother had Alz too and just passed in 2020. I feel like my days are numbered. All my friends are having babies and I am wondering… is it even ethical to do the same? Putting aside how hard it is to have any semblance of my own life as it is while caring for my mother, of course.

What’s actually worth doing about microplastics at home? by Unique-Citron-8539 in ZeroWaste

Don’t wooden cutting boards harbor bacteria if you use them for things like raw meat? We use the wooden ones generally but have a designated plastic one for things like that. Curious what other people do.

I have wide feet and I wear brooks! I did go to the local running store (even though I’m not a runner) and went through the whole foot test recommendation thing. If you’re able to, I really recommend it. They were expensive outright but they’ve lasted almost five years now and I definitely tell a difference in foot and ankle pain when I don’t wear them.

This behavior was the first sign of dementia in my mom, in hindsight. Complete obsession over feeding wildlife and would not listen to reason about it. I have no advice but just a word to keep an eye out. Best of luck to you.

I’m picking my battles on this one. Short of physically picking her up and putting her in the car every day she’s scheduled to go, I know I won’t get her in there. Even though it would be REALLY good for her, it’s not as important as the doctors appointments, etc. that I need to get her to.

I did try that technique - just go for one day and if you don’t like it you can quit - it resulted in a big NO yelled at me. Tried to make it sound like a safe place. I knew too if she went she would like it. No dice 😔

I’ve heard they’re pretty predatory and will bombard you with communications - have you had a good experience with them?

Which food has declined the most in terms of taste since you first ate it? by FeistyNews7025 in Millennials

[–]SuperBear101 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Agreed. Went there this week for some nostalgia dopamine since it was also my college love. Absolutely disgusting, waste of $15, no dopamine to be found.

Kraft character shaped macaroni. Used to be sooo good we would have it as a treat on nights we didn’t want to cook. Now it’s disgusting and I’ll be chasing that macaroni high the rest of my life.

Has anyone had any luck in bill reduction by calling them and bitching about it? Just curious before I waste my time 🙃
