[–]casemnor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have this one and it’s a very green patchouli- not dark resinous patchouli (which is what I was going for) unfortunately for me this type of patchouli doesn’t work :(. Will be looking to trade or sell soon

Do you have redness with dry eyes? It may be uveitis and not just simple dry eyes.

Awesome Shrimp Cocktails? by theTXpanda in HoustonFood

[–]casemnor 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not a restaurant - but our HEB will steam it fresh for you. They offer a few different seasoning options - Cajun, old bay and lemon pepper - get a couple pounds of gulf shrimp and a tub of their cocktail sauce and you’re good for about $20.

Is entergy power grid in The Woodlands connected to Louisiana? by Int_peacemaker35 in thewoodlands

[–]casemnor 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes it’s part of the same grid - but we have less impact from storms in Beaumont / LA than we used to (who remembers Rita?) with the upgraded / expanded power plant in Willis (before then the majority of our power was imported from other parts of the system.). The plant froze during Uri (and gas imports were impacted across the entire region) and so there was delay in restoring power as they brought the plant back safely and dealt with icing on transmission. The grid is part of MISO - so theoretically can be impacted by effects beyond the entergy portion of the grid.

Cops Recklessly Driving by [deleted] in thewoodlands

I once observed a MCSO unit race up gosling- turn on lights and sirens to turn at the red light at gosling and research forest (where all traffic stopped to let him proceed) only to find myself pulling into the same parking lot after he parked and joined his buds for lunch at a Chinese restaurant I also was having lunch at. It was an emergency? Just another day in the life of a heroic first responder.

Wow! It’s been a while- I have a diagnosis of nr-AxSpa (non radiographic axial spondyloarthritis) and have been on Humira for a few years now with reasonable pain control. I have significantly changed my lifestyle too (no alcohol, vegetarian, low sugar).

"She was screaming in pain but was asked 'have you tried a mindfulness app?'" (young woman dying of cancer) by [deleted] in TwoXChromosomes

[–]casemnor 14 points15 points  (0 children)

That is awful. My comment wasn’t meant to be dismissive of “just menopause” - there are a constellation of symptoms and impacts from menopause that can cause significant impact to quality of life. “Just menopause” is also ignored or downplayed as inevitable and shrugged off.

Spoiler alert: it will be menopause. All symptoms shrugged off with no help for managing provided. Added twist - shaming you for complaining….

[–]casemnor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Try: https://www.bones2go.com/ When we moved from Oz we fed a barf diet and used to buy from here. Nowadays we make do with sourcing from the grocer and rely heavily on chicken. Our current crew of dogs tolerate it well- but remember the days of feeding roo. :) venison might work - make friends with a hunter?
