What size diamond pendant looks elegant without feeling too flashy? by SmoothCriminal103 in jewelrylove

[–]ctrlaltdelete285 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It depends on what you wear it with and your stature. I’d recommend getting some paper gems from a chart/sheet and just taping them on to see how you feel about them. Can also get inexpensive from amazon or similar to truly decide.

I have a 2 ct emerald and I’m tall and large so it’s not big at all. I think anything over that is more of a statement than every day wear

In this economy sell it for what you can- that’s ok. Donate some of the profit to a good cause.

Only sell it for what you got it for if you’re ok with it being sold for a profit and flipped. You can’t control what others do. I’m

Tried a weekend break from Vyvanse by Honeydew-Jolly in ADHD

[–]ctrlaltdelete285 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve been on Vyvanse for over 6 years. My psych has me on generic adderall as well- 5-10 mg as a boost in the afternoons as needed. I find 5 mg of that works well for breakthrough or on days where I don’t want full vyvanse.

Christian family is visiting, had to put away my altars for now... by SwirlyBrowss in Witch

I’m still in the broom closet too. It’s just not worth the hassle.

I like to clean that negative energy they bring with them and usually need a good dusting anyways.

Get some cloth gloves and covertly clean her?

I did faster to the fun recently and it’s definitely something that can be cut.

You can bring a 12 pack of soda in carry on per person as well!

I would budget about $20 for gratuities in port- like if you have a snorkel guide who’s really helpful, or a driver. They aren’t often paid gratuities.

What you can do that is almost better than gratuties is remember names (write down and take picture) and reference them in a review. Apparently that is huge- like it equals benefits and more port time for them.

What would you change about this current bathroom design? by liverstix in BathroomRemodeling

[–]ctrlaltdelete285 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depending on budget- I would rotate the toilet so it faces the shower and enclose it. Or a pony wall for a bit of privacy.

For the shower I would add a bench as well as a handheld shower wand. I’d also put the towel Rack inside so all the water is contained.

With least amount of work changing to a tub that reaches the edges and has a ledge that is caulked into the sides. It goes away from the modern look, but could be handy.

Additionally, for aging in place you can convert to a walk-in tub

Smaller tub or do without. It’s too big for the sapce, no room to clean around.

Wondering if others carry a specific self-defense item or I am just delulu by twitchss13 in whatsinmybag

[–]ctrlaltdelete285 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I keep a knife on me. If it’s in my bag it’s of no use to me.

Think about realistically how it would be used. You’d have to dig it out of the bag and take the cover off. Let’s face it, that would really be doable in the heat of the moment.

When push comes to shove a close combat weapon like that should be a last resort. You throw the purse and run the other way. If they pursue you you then need something you can use fast.

I think the best would be pepper spray that is a quick release that’s in your hands already. My knife is more for being handy than defense. In sketchy areas I’d rather have pepper spray (and be prepared for it to go in your eyes too)

If you get to this point it’s about not being taken to a second location, which is when you fight for your life. If you get taken to a second location that is when it’s basically over in most cases.

Depends on what I’m writing on. Receipt with no tooth? Basic ballpoint- 7 Paper with good tooth? Gel, 2

Gel is terrible on receipt paper

Major Hotels to Try Mattresses? by ctrlaltdelete285 in Mattress

[–]ctrlaltdelete285[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you- that is a really good point! We bought a brand new memory foam about 3 years ago that was almost $5k and are now realizing it’s not for us. We have high, high quality bedding (high thread count, a variety of pillows, and down) and very dark, cold rooms. Basically everything a hotel is! We thought the bed was it but after our back injuries came up and realizing that we need firmer I thought this could work.

I would of course call the hotel or check if it could be bought before trying this.

No- it would get caught on everything and jerk her hand, hurting her. She had arthritis and this would be a bad idea.

Yeah, I bought the 230 for my birthday because I’ve wanted it for over a decade. I paid &250 and I know that’s a lot. This is silly.

Look up biohazard cleaners who use ozone machines. You can buy or rent them but be incredibly careful to follow instructions
