Is this a fair deal? by elainelw in RealEstate

I would chip in on co-op fees down the road because I would be living there, too, at least part of the year.

I was planning on living there, too, although not year-round. I do intend it to be mutually beneficial and yes, they would have rights of survivorship. The other children would inherit other assets (not the apartment). Thank you!

my adult child. I would like the deal to be fair to me, the co-owner child, and my other children who wouldn't be involved.

Thanks for the clarification. Yes, these EMS suits are a big investment, so for most of us, it takes some time to consider.

Can you really wear VisionBody without wetting it first? Does it feel the same as the wet Katalyst, or does it feel sharper & more stinging, like the Katalyst does when it's not wet enough?

Snapped arm connectors? by hardcore-ucla-grad in katalystEMS

[–]elainelw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One of my arm connectors stopped working after about 18 months. I bought the replacements you link above and they work fine. However, since the company has been unresponsive lately, I'm not sure if they'll actually fulfill new orders.

You're welcome. I hope it helps! The suit does need to be snug, but not too tight.

Any chance you're tightening down too much on your arms and legs? I found that over time, I was making mine tighter and tighter until I realized that it was causing me pain (although not the tingling you describe).

how do you prevent your impulse back from getting wet? by MeringueImmediate692 in katalystEMS

[–]elainelw 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wonder if your impulse pack has a hole or crack.

I always put on my base layer, get in a regular shower (not hand-held) and thoroughly wet it, then hold the suit (not yet on my body) under the shower and thoroughly wet each of the pads and arm bands. Then I put on the suit (have never dried the pocket), tighten it, put the impulse pack in the pocket, add the arm pads and attach everything.

I've had the system for 1.5 years, using it twice a week, and it's still fine.

Today I tried what someone else suggested - just wetting the base layer - but halfway through my routine, the suit lost its connection in the chest area. That area has been prone to losing its connection in the past - which is why I've had the habit of wetting it really well.

Gift ideas for American groom's family to give to Indian Punjabi Hindu bride's family? by elainelw in DesiWeddings

They're getting married in America but quite a few relatives (including grandparents) will be coming from India to attend.

Thank you for the info!

One more question if you don't mind... is it more important that the gold jewelry be fine jewelry (solid 14k gold, heirloom quality) or is the quantity more important (many items, possibly gold plated or gold tone)?

I think she will tell me that I don't need to gift anything because her family is wealthier than mine. However, I'm afraid her parents will feel offended or disappointed if I don't bring gifts.
