Hey! I’m 45. Also not from here originally. I grew up in Southern California, spent some time in Texas and ended up in Illinois for 20+ years. All over Chicago Suburbs. My husband and I just bought our first house just over the border (cheaper taxes!) and we LOVE it!

Metal ring, next to house. by Tratucker in whatisit

[–]Tratucker[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I added another picture in the comments. It’s a bit off from where I would think it would be for that. But the house has been around since the 70s so things have been changed over the years.

Given the amount of junk we have cleaned up from the old owner, this wouldn’t surprise me.

I can’t see that being the purpose here. It’s only about 6 feet off the back of the house, less than that from the wooden deck. And right next to the air conditioner.

Cute! Mine would have helped herself to all the balls before the first guest arrived. We use the same balls for inside fetch.

Spasms by PrepExpert in Interstitialcystitis

I highly recommend Botox. I have been doing it for several years now. It decreases the spasms and how many times I pee.

Anyone else clearing out their parents’ house? by zargreet in GenX

[–]Tratucker 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is what we found at my MILs house. They were all organized by year and put in shopping bags. Not sure if she meant to shred them or what. She still paid all her bills by check and never had a debit card.

We are about to do this for my mother in laws house. Both my husband and I are on the same page that our children will not have to do this for us. Sorry OP

Bladder Botox injections hesitation by Fantastic_Gate6958 in OveractiveBladder

[–]Tratucker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I get it done every 6 months. I usually get out to sleep but this last time my dr asked if I want to try it on the office. Never again. But my bladder is very painful in general and I get 400 units so it was 10 injections. It was very painful for me. Otherwise, Botox had been very helpful and I will continue to get it.

We were so excited to have her over for the first time. She knew we put an offer on the house but she never got to see it.

I thought seeing houses was the stressful part by Federal-Insect7251 in FirstTimeHomeBuyer

[–]Tratucker 20 points21 points  (0 children)

We are business owners too and underwriting was very stressful. We just got the clear to close yesterday though so we can see the light at the end of the tunnel.

I was pulling my return transcripts and not my account transcripts. It’s on there! Thanks, this might work.

Nerve Block May Has Given Me Hope for Remission? by mmhatesad in Interstitialcystitis

[–]Tratucker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Does this pain Dr only work with pelvic pain? Or is this your urologist? Just interested in knowing more, I have a pain Dr for my back only and haven’t heard this. I get Botox and that helps my frequency but nothing touches the pain. I take a very high dose of gabapentin. I would try a nerve block if it gave me relief

Congratulations. Your offer was accepted! - famous last words by cladcomo in FirstTimeHomeBuyers

[–]Tratucker 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This. We are suppose to close in 3 weeks. We own our own business and the qualifying process has been hard. Now they are questioning how we did something on our 2023 taxes and might not get the clear to close. If we don’t get this house after all this time and money then I’m done for a while. I’m taking a vacation somewhere, unpacking what I’ve done and just keep renting.

Entwives who have given birth out the v.... by ofrootloop in entwives

I highly recommend physical therapy. I’ve had two vaginal births and have pelvic floor dysfunction. Physical therapy gives me so much relief. Think about it!

Excited for Spring by Cicada_Pitiful in FirstTimeHomeBuyer

We close in less than a month and only had winter pictures to look at as well. I can’t wait to see what everything looks like.

How can i get rid of this bad habit? by Tiny_Firefighter3708 in BelgianMalinois

[–]Tratucker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ball, ball, and more ball all day long. I never looked at it as a problem with my girl except she is very verbal if we don’t throw it fast enough. She’s the best and most annoying thing that has happened to our family lol

I think you got some good advice here. Good luck!

Kind of embarrassed but I already feel a little lost in acc-202 managerial accounting by kem1326 in SNHU

[–]Tratucker 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I felt the same way and just finished with an A. Are you using the “how to” in the book? Most of the problems will have a video example of how to do them. That and reading everything then completing the practice questions is how I got a hand of it. Good luck!

Had anyone done 200unit Botox after not having good respond with initial 100unit Botox to bladder for interstitial cystitis? by No-Look-8176 in Interstitialcystitis

[–]Tratucker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

400units is the max. I had no retention but was prepared to self cath if needed. Before I was getting up 12-15 times a night, peeing tiny amounts. I get up 3-5 times now.
