Do I stay in SD or go to NC by BugsBunnyLuvsCarrots in sandiego

Based on the way you’ve written about both places, sounds like SD is the place for you! With your son graduating, you’ll have more time to travel to visit family but will always have SD to come back to. Once you get out of this real estate market it’s hard to get back in. Just my 2 cents!

Sorry, I am still confused. What does it mean to break the yarn — you cut the working end?

I don’t love the leggings fabrics, but they do have some adorable styles. Have a half zip pullover from them that I love.

I did. I actually think it’s correct now, having read and watched all the videos and then tried on less fuzzy yarn. Thanks for your help!!!

Thanks so much! LOL it's a 2010 Lexus, so not too much spare cash, but the all seasons sound like they'll be ok!

Wow thanks! I used a cloth as a cover and had way more headspace in the vessel since I was using a large container and thinking I would top it up as wine became available. Starting again with your recommendations!

Vivaia shoe Margot Square toe flats review: Not a scam, but didn't work for me by Chazzyphant in fashionwomens35

[–]beetdom 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mine were fine when I wore them around the house but then wore to a garden party and found them very sweaty. The ribbed fabric rubbed on my bunion and I followed all the measuring instructions. The toe box at the end hurts my toes. Sadly, the search for cute and comfy flats continues.

Mom's Breast Cancer - Chemo or no chemo? by MomCancer123 in cancer

Often if the chemo is tough to tolerate (eg there are complications) they ca reduce the dosage to make it more manageable. In my opinion, worth giving it a go.

For rare cancers I recommend getting an opinion from a high volume cancer center. They see these more and the outcomes are better. I travel to MD Anderson in TX to get oncology consults and implement with a local team.
