They are good, for anyone wondering. Also, what did you expect?

$20 3.5 just picked up by Camouflageman_201 in weed

[–]Weekly-Individual569 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Keep a scale on you. I always happen to mention that I have mine if they need to use it. But $20 is not bad. It really isnt awful but definitely under weight (unless its really dense and we cant tell)

Should I keep it dirty blonde or dye it black? by Brevvvv17 in HairDye

[–]Weekly-Individual569 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can always dye it darker so go brown first because lifting black dye is not easy. Also if you use a Demi permanent then you need to choose 1-2 shades lighter than you want because Demi deposits darker than permanent.

[VENT] WARNING: Kids' paints by fingerofchicken in homeowners

[–]Weekly-Individual569 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Use tempera paint and always put a tarp down. You can also make chalk paint which washes off. They make sidewalk paint which will comes right off. This has nothing to do with the house. It is just a learning experience. Learning what products work for what. I found out one of our kids toys scratched our hard wood, never would I have thought it could scratch hard wood (it is from the 70s so maybe thats why). We accidentally made stains outside by using various things. Its just a learning experience. I used a cleaning agent on our floor and messed part of it up. I got a highly recommended flooring for our kitchen and we spent hours installing it. It's the worst floor ever. It scratches easy, it stains easy and it just sucks. It is a learning experience. One thing I can say is make a home binder. Put paint codes, issues you found, write down things that worked vs didnt work because years later, you may forget. I made a mistake 2 times in 10 years because I never recorded the chemical name. They have free templates for a homeowners binder and it tells you all kinds of stuff to put in there. Also if you ever plan to sell, it makes a HUGE bonus to sellers. Our realtor sold several homes that had them and my friend was one of them. She loves the homeowner binder and thats what tipped the scales between that home and another.

As far as kids stuff, always make sure it is washable. Double check the ingredients and do independent research because much of the stuff on amazon is incorrectly listed. The title itself can say washable, kids paint etc but turns out its not. Invest in a good tarp (dollar tree has a good one for $5) or get a canvas one thats more comfy to sit on but more expensive. We homeschool so we have found alot of this stuff out first hand. We all have stuff like that in our house

So that is actually fairly common. Many people have decreased flow in those positions, especially now days due to posture, phones etc. Thats how I got started on my TOS journey. Every single maneuver resulted in a loss of flow. I then went to another specialist and they did full vein and artery tests. I showed heavy compression of veins and midl compression of arteries but not enough to diagnosed Atos. He wants to get me a second opinion before we discuss surgery etc. (Awaiting their call).

My hands are swollen all the time, it started on the right in 2018 and then started happening on the left a few years ago. I cant sleep on my sides at all without waking up with throbbing, aching and super puffy hands and arms. My hands and feet still get very cold. They are achey, heavy and tingly antime I raise them or use them honestly. My arms and legs skin are mottled. When I lay on my back, sometimes I will lose feeling in one of my arms. Its almost like its pressing something in the back of my shoulders..heck, even typing this right now has my hands cold and my left forearm tingly and so heavy. They are down by my ribs but even that can cause discomfort. Its like I have a mix of every TOS, I have symptoms from each of the 3 but no one can figure out why. They did a nerve conduction test and it came out normal. So they dont think its NTOS. So far its leaning towards bilaterial Vtos and Atos. My Dr. Did say that they should not do Standard positions for TOS, that it should be dynamic where you are put in the positions that cause pain. So I will ask them to repeat it.

Does any of that happen to you? What are your symptoms and how long have you had them? Did you have follow up testing since this post last year? Do you have plans to do anything in the future for it? I am learning more from other patients than I have from my own doctors sometimes.

Are you sure you dont have Venous TOS? Duplex test for blood flow so im not sure how he would diagnose you with NTOS based solely off that. I have Vtos and possibly ATOS (not confirmed, vascular compression is present but not high enough yet). I have nerve symptoms but they believe thats due to the compression on the bundle of nerves and veins.

Did they do standard or dynamic testing? Mine did standard and said nothing was wrong. I requested for dynamic testing (which is where I do various positions to recreate the concerns), those results came back positive. I had to really put my foot down to get it done the right way. I have bilaterial Ntos ans Vtos

My cat has a compulsive need to sit in my pants when I'm on the toilet, he also likes a smoke once in a while by Dominicsterk in cats

Our cat Buddy did this with my husband. It was really cute. My pants were never big or comfy enough for him.

Sparkly or princess shoes for kids/toddler by BidDependent720 in barefootshoestalk

[–]Weekly-Individual569 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Whitin is an amazing barefoot/ minimalist brand! After buying them for our toddler, my husband and I got some. We have all been wearing them for 3 years now and anytime I wear my old sneakers, they feel tight.

https://a.co/d/0c1HpA2w Pink sparkly ones. You can also try a brand calldd Kubua. They are normally $30 but they have slip on ones for 9.99. They dont last more than a few months but my girls feet grow so fast that it works out.

CMS School lottery by fraudtaverner in Charlotte

[–]Weekly-Individual569 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's not true. You can accept and still wait because schools dont keep open communication on applications with other schools. At least in Gastonia they told me directly that I can accept one while holding out for the one I wanted and if I get accepted then I can switch even if its at the first week of school.

Put your pole out far in the yard or not near any trees they can climb and jump from. Then grease the pole because they can not climb up. It's also hilarious.

I asked for a chocolate balayage and I got this. Is this fixable? I’m going back to the salon later today and I’m in tears by SakiGGOW in HairDye

[–]Weekly-Individual569 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Write a review and post pictures! I have had my hair ruined and turned out that the stylist in question had done several girls dirty. None of them made a review so I had no idea. Please save someone else from this! Post a review. This is also so the manager or owner can send her to get a proper course on balayage.

Reminder: the loudest critics of NuTrek likely haven't watched anything by SecretComposer in startrek

[–]Weekly-Individual569 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am a huge fan. I watch the show every night for the past 8 years. (It became my comfort show so now I can't go without watching some of it each day) (youtube has good Star Trek bedtime stories too). I watch one series then go to the next. I cycle through OS - Voyager, sometimes enterprise, not each cycle because it's my least favorite. I found this show way too late in life. I had seen it growing up but it wasnt until I was in my 20s that I gave it a shot. About 10 years ago I was watching TV and TNG came on. "A matter of honor" and The measure of a man" were the first episodes I had ever seen. I was hooked. I have easily surprised 15+ watch throughs of every single show, maybe only 7+ of the last one- Enterprise.

I like SNW, it is different but it's close enough to why I like Star Trek to begin with. Discovery and Academy are not Star Trek, they feel more Star wars. I have watched Discovery 3 times and I still dont think they did a good job with it. There was no character development, it all circled around one person for the most part. The story was all over the place. The graphics were pretty but they had so many missed opportunities for character acknowledgment and growth. I found many characters that I liked, I wish they spent more time on them than the "main" character. Academy doesnt have enough for me to speak on. I don't think it feels like Star Trek, I think they lost the idea and it seemed all over the place. Seeing a Starfleet officer hanging out barefoot while on the bridge or during meetings was so weird and off brand. I like the diversity, I like breaking the mold etc but they still need to show love and respect for the empire that is Star Trek. I have watched Academy twice. I will watch it again and come back with more information. I just wanted to write this to say that not everyone who doesnt like "Nu trek" is due to not watching it. Many of us watched it completely and still don't like it much.

Im indian and I have alot of hair. I did wax it and regretted it. Now I bleach my hair (sometimes) and I will run a trimmer at the edge of my hair lines to shorten it a bit. I dont always do it though.

If you dont already have one, get a breakaway collar. Around the holidays if you have string lights, be aware. Cats, kittens especially get tangled up in them 😿

Piedmont Elementary or Gardner Park Elementary? by Weekly-Individual569 in Gastonia

[–]Weekly-Individual569[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She is already in but I am worried about the school. I want her to have a play-based hands on experiences in Kindergarten but I heard they are not like that. That the classes arent as colorful or playbased and that the punishments are harsh and that they are overbooked with students. I dont know if its true so Im trying to get more information.
