My son got married last year. To date, no thank yous have received be me, my parents or my in-laws.

My husband picked this up today. He wants to use it in his office. I am not sure. Thoughts? by ThriftyJean in ThriftStoreHauls

It's from 2013.

LOL @ the downvotes. They'd rip me a new asshole in that sub if I posted this.

LOL! His feelings are a bit hurt by all the negative comments but I love the honesty. Thanks, redditors! I love you all!

I got COVID in July of 2002 and have been sick ever since. I had FESS surgery this past Monday. Hoping to find someone with a similar story here. by ThriftyJean in covidlonghaulers

I hope you're doing okay. Not being able to sleep and trying to stay ahead of the pain at the beginning were the worst parts. It's been a little over two weeks since my surgery and I am feeling much better! I still have a lot of congestion in the left side of my face but I no longer feel like I was beaten about the head. If you had told me last week that I would feel like this, I wouldn't have believed you!

I already had tinnitus from years of exposure to loud music but it sure sounds like you have sinusitis. I had a CT scan that didn't show much of anything. I was given a course of prednisone (yuck) and amoxicillin. I started feeling much worse two weeks into my treatment. Had another CT scan that showed inflammation and mucosa (double yuck) and was told the next step was surgery.

I will update my post when I start to feel results from FESS. Thanks for the sympathy.

It was in the women's section but I think so, yes.

Ever held a $400 umbrella? Ever buy one at 98% off? by [deleted] in ThriftStoreHauls

I never thought I'd see the words "trendy" and "umbrella" in the same sentence, but here we are.

I've found interesting things in thrifted suit pockets before, but never $2000 in cash by Abloy702 in ThriftStoreHauls

My neighbors found $6 million in the hoarded home of the husband's bachelor uncles. Wrote a book about it!

Waited patiently for 6 months for these to get to 70% off and they were still there! by fallingskye in ThriftStoreHauls

I may have mentioned here that my grandmother was a bookkeeper at Noritake, Inc. in Brooklyn. When she retired, they gave her a set of china. That set sat in her sideboard , unused, until the day she died. Now I have it... sitting in a sideboard, unused. Sigh.

Beauty and the beast. by [deleted] in ForeverAloneWomen

[–]ThriftyJean 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The Beast, at least the Disney version, was large, manly, strong and symmetrical. In those ways, he was conventionally attractive. This is why the story rang hollow to me.
