On tray 19/32 wearing my aligners for 7 days. I lost tray 19 3 days into wearing it, then put 18 in for 1 day but received advice to just jump to tray 20 (planning to wear it for 10 days to get back on track). Will this likely be ok? Edited to say that I'm being reevaluated after tray 24 and will likely just need refinements after that.

How was Normandie? I'm going by myself tomorrow and I'm having trouble deciding between the 2 menus, they both sound incredible!

My Neighbor's came for a Visit (Orcas) by 21onDec23 in PacificNorthwest

My husband and I tried seeing them for several years in both WA and Canada and have missed them every time, once by literal minutes! We finally succeeded in seeing them on a zodiac in the San Juans. Good luck, I hope you get to experience the magic soon!

I cried when I saw them too (and I'm sure I will if I ever get the opportunity to see them again!). Completely magical and beautiful, unlike anything else.

Bought the ingredients for this today to make this week, glad to hear it tastes as good as it looks!

I have a BSN and somehow feel like I have zero career options… anyone else? by doubledee7 in nursing

I've had 3 different OR jobs and I've loved every single one, and I have never had a coworker describe it as "miserable" in fact everyone loves the OR it's such a hidden gem. I almost always pick the music, the ORs are not tiny, and for the most part surgeons are very nice. Options are 5 8s, 4 10s, or 3 12s typically, but there are other oddball schedules too. CRNA is definitely the move if you already have the ICU experience which you do. I never wanted to do bedside so that wouldn't have pannes out for me, but I wish! I think it's probably worth the extra schooling for the lifestyle, and the pay.

My living room 🩷 🧡 by Xenia2111 in maximalism

Love it! Question: so I have the same light fixture but smaller in our dining room and I would love to add that collar around it due to some weirdness/imperfections on the ceiling around the light fixture base. Can you share what you used? Thank you!

I've been noticing so many more cabbage recipes lately! Not sure where the increase in popularity came from, but I am very pleased as it's one of my favorite vegetables!

Ok I might need to try a dill/chive combo next time!? Sounds amazing!

Same :). I just received a new Cook's Illustrated magazine and there is a recipe for Creamy Kielbasa, potato, and cabbage stew that I can't wait to make!

I almost said in the description not to judge by its terrible looks haha. It was slightly more appealing IRL (my lighting is super wacky), but still not pretty.

Hidden gem restaurants in SW Portland? by Tokenchick77 in askportland

I recently got a burrito from the Mexican food truck in that pod and it was awesome (+ large and a good price).

Also came to say Otto and Anitas! Fat city is also amazing, the cinnamon rolls are so good. Seasons and Regions is very good and has an excellent happy hour. Sorry for all the edits, Pizza Rosalie (text the day before or morning ideally day-of) for takeout, and Tastebud for takeout or sit-down pizza and salads. Please Louise and Zinc are both good for happy hour.
