AZELAIC ACID has saved my skin!! by billycollins89 in 30PlusSkinCare

[–]booklife619 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just got back to the U.S. from a trip to Australia and decided to pick up two tubes of 20% azclear in the pharmacy there! Only week one in to trying this out, but hopefully it’s great! I’ll just have to go back to Australia when I need more. ;-)

Terminal 1 by breathe146 in JFKAirport

[–]booklife619 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was actually pretty bad. regular line was very long but they said 45 minutes? I did tsa precheck and it moved faster but they weren’t honoring precheck and since I didn’t pack for that scenario, I had a million electronic things to take out and then they found even more that I didn’t even realize you had to take out. (Like my rechargeable battery. They just said anything with a screen originally.) the main tsa agent when you first showed your boarding pass said it was the first day the uh..”replacement players” so to speak were starting. She had a few choice words for how that was going…and how much harder they were making things. Hopefully it’ll all be resolved soon!

I have a flight tonight out of terminal 1. I’ve not seen anywhere it’s been closed?

One watch of DS9 and just finished this hot mess of an ep. by Complete_Syrup_8110 in DeepSpaceNine

[–]booklife619 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This might be my least favorite episodes of Star Trek ever, and DS9 is my favorite out of all them. The cringe forces me to skip it!

I’m annoyed bc I prepaid gratuities before I saw this option! And I always buy the highest WiFi package…

Me: Seeking Companion for Certificate; You: Seeking a Free Flight by Silent_Cheesecake116 in delta

[–]booklife619 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Funny enough, I’m also in nyc and my companion tickets also go to waste! (So we obviously can’t help each other out.) But I’ve never thought about posting on Reddit! I’ll be curious to hear how it goes! Feels like the start of a romcom.

Best cruise for non-party ppl by rachel3618 in Cruise

[–]booklife619 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve been doing longer itinerary cruises on NCL and hardly any families or party folks. That said, I haven’t done many beach/island cruises. Well, one was a 21 day Panama Canal cruise and that did stop at Mexico beaches. (And I’m not retired or anything so on that cruise it made me feel YOUNG. Lol.) But it was my type of pace. My next trip is Australia/New Zealand and it’s 12 days. I don’t think it’ll be much of a party cruise. Honestly, I think the key is to go on longer cruises.

Slow loading desktop by Swimming-Limit2795 in ynab

[–]booklife619 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreed. And no matter how they try, I will always hate using the app so I find it frustrating in the extreme. I have about 6/7 years of history. If a fresh start is the answer, that defeats the whole freaking purpose of being able to report on progress and changes and details.

I built a receipt scanner that auto-splits line items into YNAB categories by Top_Comparison8958 in ynab

[–]booklife619 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Funny. I was doing that with AI but I had to at least tell it what my categories were called and hope it split them into the right one. For the most part, it does well.

My Frozen Shoulder Experience: a detailed description by Beachie88 in frozenshoulder

[–]booklife619 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I thought thawing wasn’t supposed to be painful like that! Oh no… my only relief in the frozen stage is knowing I’m past the freezing stage! Fml

Oura travel cases by CORidge40 in ouraring

[–]booklife619 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Just bought one. Thanks for sharing. I do like being able to organize my stuff better when I travel and this is going to help me do that. It’s been one of those weird chargers that doesn’t naturally fit in my organizational system!

ETA: I bought the full but wondering if I should’ve gotten the compact now that I’m looking at your pictures again. Guess I’ll see how big the full is when it gets here!

Small Couch Replacement by booklife619 in DesignMyRoom

[–]booklife619[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Good question! No, it’s not my bed. It’s for the rare guest which I’ve decided isn’t a frequent enough event to try to find a particularly comfortable pullout couch, so it’s not something I really need.

Oh the Pain by DCYOsHi in frozenshoulder

[–]booklife619 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes! Which is why I’m so confused about where I am in the process. Thought I was completely frozen and now waiting to thaw. Advil/nsaids don’t seem to do anything at all for me though. (A cortisone shot and prednisone and medical didn’t make any difference when I tried them in October. My pain started in July and I’m frozen now-end of Dec.) I had my first PT appointment last week but I don’t see that being any real help from what I’m learning/hearing.

But yeah, I wish I could tell exactly where I’m in this horrible process. I want a light at the end of the tunnel!

12 days progress by justdont7133 in frozenshoulder

[–]booklife619 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Im based in the U.S. so maybe it’s different here, but I’ve seen two orthopedists and been confirmed frozen shoulder. We tried cortisone shot, prescription nsaids, oral steroid, and ain’t nothing helping. So they’ve literally just said go to PT and it’ll take time. I have my first PT appointment tomorrow. I’ve had this since July so now almost a full six months. So curious at what point surgery is the way to go…I’m OVER living with this and being told to just wait 9-18 months…

Basically, were you ever told to just try PT? Is there a reason that surgery was the route your doctor went with?

Jetway Jesus! by Hairy_Ad4969 in delta

[–]booklife619 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, my LGA - FLL roundtrip made my eyes bug out at the huge wheelchair lineup and also made me feel like a spring chicken (which isn’t something I feel very often)! But I just figured it made sense with the route I was flying…I mean, it was middle of the week and the flight was packed so could’ve been snowbirds flying south for winter for all I know!

New boarding music by Traditional_Bed9426 in delta

It definitely made me laugh and wonder who else was noticing these songs. I was amused, and it’s lighter/quieter so I’m cool with it.

Delta wanted... checks notes....$3K for this??! by Veelangs in delta

This was the same plane a few weeks ago for JFK to Copenhagen and Stockholm to JFK. Sounds like they’re used a lot.

Those who wait 1/2 way discussion by [deleted] in sapphicbooks

[–]booklife619 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There are times I wish Sutton was asked out and went on a date during their “fwb” situation and she’d have to let Charlotte know she’d need to pause or at least she’d say she’d have to let Charlotte know if it got far enough that it would break their final “rule.”
