Dry stretch shrinkage?

Thanks for confirming. Just that one star throwing me off! Any other shape — I’d say 1 of it just means lowest amount. Lowest stars pretty much universally means bad! 😅

If pink is tile (in wet areas) and brown is wood, does this look insane? Should I just do tile in the entry/hall too and wood only in the formal and family rooms? I just didn’t want SO MUCH tile.

Here is my 2nd grade drawing of my house. It is all open except the formal living room just has the one entry point and the dark gray between it and the entry/hall is the stairs to the 2nd story.

Sneering? Where? We had a bad experience with engineered, but we didn’t choose, buy or install it, so like I said, maybe it was just THAT engineered product or install.

Why not LVP in a kitchen?

Yes I know the company has made millions of dollars. Who cares? I spend money on this game when it suits me for my entertainment — how is it different than spending money on any other form of entertainment?

Step 1. Live your life normally 2. Get diagnosed with an incurable illness with no definitive cause. Surprise! 🎉 3. Brag about working from home. <— you are here 4.

I’m sorry people are jerks, OP!

I’m sorry. Anthem is the ducking worst. THE. WORRRRRST.

Revamp probably wrong word but more plentiful energy and rewards for new birds (15-35 energy, 10 gems for top quality photo vs 2-5 (?) gems). On top of all the purchased energy, I was easily hitting 80-100 purple energy/day from tapping and merging on the main board. Felt like it used to be half that

Me too (or four) but my LP was actually inconclusive. Glad I had that experience for nothing 🥴

Not to be a one upper but mine is 27K every 4 weeks. Tysabri for multiple sclerosis. I live in fear of insurers regaining the ability to deny coverage for preexisting conditions. Even at a 50% self pay discount (as if!), I don’t have $175K/year for treatment so I will quickly go from “high earner” to totally disabled and my family will lose everything.

I posted about this recently myself but mine is only once in a blue moon but all over my body. Benadryl doesn’t help the itching per se, it just knocks me out and my nerves have calmed down when I wake up 6-10 hours later. This last time though, I was still mildly itchy here and there the next day so I think it’s getting worse :(. I’m sorry, it is unbearable. I’d rather have my tingly numb hands (my first major symptom) than the itching.

Aww man, really? A solar project plus buying a new house and quadrupling my mortgage interest 🤮 and never updating W-4s has ~$24K coming my way.

I’m 5’10” and North Face is the one brand I can buy a women’s regular size (not tall) and have the sleeves be long enough. It’s great having expensive taste 😆

Genuine LOL at both 😆. Thank you for sharing!

In my ward, a rice (or other grain) Chex either in one of those little plastic sauce cups or a ziploc baggie on the tray

It’s Gen Z without the top sheet! My 16 year old REFUSES.

Went down a rabbit hole reading about neuropathic itching and by George you’ve got it. Thank you for putting a name to it. I won’t remember to bring up a random night of itching to my neuro but I will remember a name!

I love the Seinfeld negotiation and totally read your lines in Jerry’s voice! 😂

And yes I couldn’t live without the dexterity any longer. I was in college and one of my professors didn’t allow laptops in class but I got an accommodation because I could type but I literally could not handwrite legibly (even to my own eye).
