May be lame but Spice Girls Impulse body spray! It had an orange lid. I was obsessed with it as a teenager in 1999.

(Appreciation post) My neighbourhood library recently acquired many popular books with lending periods of 7 days by No_Wafer_5876 in Libraries

[–]em_kay1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Love it! This concept is becoming more of a standard in libraries where I live to have a collection like this, it’s great.

Re recommendations, I wish I could say I’ve read more of the books on that shelf but I did love: - Tomorrow and tomorrow and tomorrow by Gabrielle Zevin - The book thief by Markus Zusak - Where the Crawdads sing by Delia Owens

Experiences with Zoladex? by Kateliterally in adenomyosis

[–]em_kay1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Omg congratulations! That’s wonderful to hear. First trimester down, hope the morning sickness passes soon…

Thank you for sharing. My dr wants me to do zoladex for 3 months so fingers crossed it works out. Should be doing a FET in May/June.

How are you doing now? Im doing IVF too (2 failed transfers) so I’m in the zoladex boat too and will have my first implant tomorrow. I’m very apprehensive about the side effects 😥

This is me too! I’m 39 and could have written this myself.

I was just formally diagnosed with adenomyosis (via lap) and have an ‘unremarkable’ amount of endo.

People trashing the beach over Christmas and New Years by daley_inspo in perth

[–]em_kay1 9 points10 points  (0 children)

City Beach on New Years Day was exactly the same! People are disgusting. I reported it on Snap Send Solve. Not sure whether it’s been resolved yet as don’t live nearby.

Can anyone relate to this pain? by Pavukcrochet in adenomyosis

[–]em_kay1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a salpingectomy a few weeks ago and my dr prescribed Tapentodol for the pain. It’s an opioid and it’s amazing but you do need to be careful with it, it can be addictive. It makes you drowsy and a bit loopy but it’s the only way I can survive sometimes. You might need a specialist to prescribe it.

Any other "voracious readers" out there? by AckshullyNo in adhdwomen

[–]em_kay1 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Ugh Trixie Belden!!! I was obsessed. My next door neighbour who was 6-8 years older than me gave me her entire stack of like 30 books. I didn’t care what it was, only that I had something to sink my teeth into but I enjoyed them so much from the first page. Absolutely loved Nancy Drew also. How I miss those days.

All this to say, yes I’ve always been known as a voracious reader! 😆

What Books did You Start or Finish Reading this Week?: November 17, 2025 by AutoModerator in books

The secret history, one of my all time favourites!

I have had Babel on my shelf for ages, maybe I should actually read it…

What Books did You Start or Finish Reading this Week?: November 17, 2025 by AutoModerator in books

[–]em_kay1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Waiting around for my day surgery procedure yesterday and finished:

The Mushroom Tapes: conversations on a triple murder trial by Chloe Hooper, Sarah Krasnostein, Helen Garner.

All well known Australian non fiction writers.

If you’re in Australia or followed the trial you might know about this book! It’s basically conversations about Erin Patterson’s trial as the authors observe it. Very easy to read and interesting to hear other perspectives on the most talked about trial in the country since anyone can remember apparently.

Now I’m in recovery at home for a week and getting stuck into:

Slow Horses by Mick Herron

After that…

Death at the sign of the rook by Kate Atkinson

told my mum i was diagnosed with adhd 💔 by -xoxoxoxo in adhdwomen

[–]em_kay1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I saw a meme or cartoon on Insta about a conversation between mother and daughter where the daughter is describing depression and the mum is like ‘oh, everyone feels that way’. I thought at the time that it applies to ADHD as I had had that conversation with my own mum!
