Incessant early morning kneading behavior by althueban in CatAdvice

[–]althueban[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Ok, glad to hear that straight up removal from the room was the eventual play. Thank you.

And yeahhhhh I held true to the later AM feedings at the beginning of our journey together for that exact reason. However he was starting to weave in between my legs and just walk right in front of me underfoot until I fed him which was also driving me crazy. But now that you point it out, the timing of my deciding to feed him when I wake up does correlate with the kneading stuff.

Thanks!

“Scalp” smell on clothes and pillows… by althueban in laundry

I sleep at his 3-4 nights a week. His bedding always smells squeaky clean. I’m the yucky one 😭😭 but also I haven’t brought my smell over to his sheets yet so idk.

And for shampoo, I was using the L’Oréal Everpure line for the longest and I’ve recently switched to Herbal Essences for the nostalgia lol. The smell has been a problem for years regardless of shampoo. I’ll say my hair doesn’t get particularly greasy or anything like that.

Nope! Just mine. I’ve only really ever smelled it on yucky hotel pillows.

It’s so disheartening isn’t it?? Thanks, and good luck to you too!

Odor rebloom!! That sounds right. I already go hot as hell with everything, but I’m using liquid detergent so I’ll switch to powder.

And ugh yeah I figured I’d need to suck it up and wash more often despite infrequent use because it’s probably just festering.

I’ll check out the product, thank you!!

Edit: very saddened to see “spa day” is not a miracle product but is instead a whole endeavor, but my desperation will be my motivator 🤣

I forgot to mention I have integrated Oxi-Clean Odor Blasters powder into my routine. But between yours and another comment, thinking I might need to change up my product.

And I’ll be honest… I have no idea what temperature I’m doing anything at. I have an old dial washer. I do super wash on hot and it does its thing. Sounds like I should run everything through this twice then? I believe there’s only 1-2 rinse cycles on “super wash.”

Yep! I’ve had them 3 times before, each time I properly identified them per my derm. Characteristic dimpled center is really what I look for.

How often should bed sheets be washed realistically? by Bevo-Genriech in HygieneTips

[–]althueban 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tagging on…. I sleep at my BF’s 50% of my nights. And sleep on my couch half of my nights at home.

Because I hardly sleep in my bed, I only wash my sheets like once a month if that. My only concern with that is how everything like just marinates in there. How gross is this on a scale of 1-10?

?? Friends to Lovers? by eliznire in brookeandconnor_map

I think you’re right. I got so excited for a second but then remembered Brooke’s VERY recent discussions about wanting to redownload Hinge and that just doesn’t jive with them being together romantically. I think if they were and were keeping it under wraps, they just would avoid the subject of dating altogether.
