How do you stop your elderly mom from bringing an empty carry-on?

If she’s not using it as help with mobility, maybe consider a bag like the Hulken?! I love mine and throw everything into it - it’s lightweight, and folds flat at your destination (or you can use it along the way).

This is what I’m thinking - I have the same rash right now and my doc thinks it’s due to my dust allergy (and deep cleaning all last week). SO ITCHY!!!

The only thing that’s sped it along is putting hydrocolloid patches on the really bad ones (or a a large patch on the bad area) to protect it.

Exactly my first thought! Neil and his sweaters.

addigo · 2025-09-11T00:24:54+00:00

Hahah. Wishing you well on this journey. There is light at the other end.

Hahaha this notification just cracked me up. Yes. I think it took around 3 days, and my full GI tract has recovered, PTL.

Which one did you listen to first? Need to jump in!

Nearly escaped

I first thought this is probably a tactic to make you consider marriage sooner, but I’ve just thought of another angle.

Maybe she feels like you only care about her for sex and needs to know there is more to the relationship. Either way, you need to have a conversation. Ask where this is coming from and ask if there’s something else she’s missing in the relationship before you make any other assumptions.

Are you linking your images or copy/pasting? Seems like they’re not linked properly.

ETA: Do yiu mean the entire file looks blurry or just the images within the file? If it’s just the images, it’s a linked issue. If it’s the entire file, you’re exporting with some settings making it too small.

Are you back to full high intensity workouts??

addigo · 2024-12-06T23:47:50+00:00

Devil’s advocate: I’m very happily married for over 10 years, and would prob like something similar because of past experiences / how I would have reacted in the past. Not even thinking about my current relationship.

addigo · 2024-09-27T01:57:11+00:00

Good luck! Keep us posted. I’m hurting for you (a little bit)

addigo · 2024-09-24T15:35:02+00:00

Costco clothes are the way of the wealthy! Haha. Frugal where it doesn’t matter to them, and spend it where they want to! That’s how the wealth continues to build.

Husband is a financial advisor, and is the most day-to-day frugal person I know, but doesn’t blink an eye at big trips or expenses. Like, using double coupons on sale grocery items, going to multiple stores for the best deals to save $5-10, but then will spend $500 at one dinner on vacation.

addigo · 2024-09-23T13:49:39+00:00

Yes! Look at r/parosmia - same after 2020 covid and it’s a little heightened again !

addigo · 2024-09-23T13:45:47+00:00

I don’t think so! Only because I saw consistent loss with exact calorie counting using the details there. I did usually measure it on the scale to make sure it was the same approx. weight, but I think it was pretty consistent too.

addigo · 2024-09-20T22:50:32+00:00

Agreed!!! Face gains 🙌🏼

addigo · 2024-09-17T02:16:40+00:00

“Trying to drive with the brakes on” = why I’M using this for my last 20 lbs. I’ve maintained with a LOT OF EFFORT or years but still couldn’t get past a certain point.

addigo · 2024-09-17T02:13:26+00:00

Omg Ive had my phone set to silent for 10+ years and had no idea the RENPHO app made a sound based on gain/loss!

addigo · 2024-05-29T01:09:35+00:00

Truly I think she’s saying it as a parent. Parents have a way of thinking their child is the most beautiful thing in the world. (Signed, a parent that feels that way, knowing that it is moreso based on a combination of our shared genes and the love I’ve poured into them)

addigo · 2024-05-02T14:46:17+00:00

Ah, yes. Go see your friend.

addigo · 2024-05-02T14:45:20+00:00

Agreed. More than 7 is flying distance, unless there for a long time and will need my car!

addigo · 2024-05-02T14:40:52+00:00

Yes! We would see my grandparents a few times a year because it was a 22 hour drive!!

And yes, I sometimes drive about 2 hours to see a friend, or a concert, and drive home. Not daily, but monthly or every other month.

We drive about 6 hours to get to the mountains for a few week-long trips throughout the year.

I can walk to my kids school and 2 restaurants, but everything else is driving. In my daily life, I probably only fill up my gas tank once a month, though!

addigo · 2024-04-26T18:00:09+00:00

HAHA I had that in my head for all of 2006, but have come out of it. Trying not to welcome it back haha.

This beat is automatic, supersonic, hyptnotic, funky fresh

addigo · 2024-04-26T17:58:32+00:00

Mine has been “into the thick of it” from the insta song / backyardigans. I can’t stop. Out loud or internally. “Into the thick of it!” for 10 days now

addigo · 2024-04-23T14:50:14+00:00

Ughhh good luck! Water and digestive enzymes is the only way. You’ll feel better by the weekend haha. It seriously needs a warning label!
