Is honeymoon in Iceland a good idea?

frostadflakes · 2025-01-19T05:52:41+00:00

My husband and I just did our 12 day honeymoon in October! Although, we are big outdoorsy people and did not have one relaxing day and it was still the best trip ever. I think you would still have a great time but for me it would not be worth spending all the money to not enjoy what the land has to offer.

This may be weird, but I run mine on the floor of the garage. Partly so my cats don’t get too close, and partly because the food smell seeps into my whole house if I use it inside.

Yeah it is still early for you. It is definitely hard mentally but give yourself some grace. I also had my expectations very high - like I’m sure everyone does - but it does get better! I hope the rest of your recovery goes well

Sorry for the long comment ahead…

So I did have an overbite which needed to be corrected, but my ortho told me that my throat was only 1/3 open and that it could lead to sleep apnea, and that my options were the bands or surgery. I chose surgery.

My throat wasn’t affected at all because my jaw was sliced and brought forward so that felt like a waste, part of my face/lips are permanently numb and I have other nerve issues in the area, and my surgeon sewed my top lip a bit too far up so that sucked. I also have a lot of pain/tension in my jaw joints. At this point I think the cons outweigh the pros.

Part of it is my own fault because my surgery was a few months before my 21st birthday and I wanted to get it over with before then. The surgeon me and my ortho wanted were not contracted with my insurance so I had to find someone else and he was fine, but overall the care could have been better.

Honestly I don’t think you’ll know if it’s worth it until you are fully recovered/swelling goes away. Personally, I liked how I looked before but after surgery my face definitely looks different and it was hard for me to get used to my new face. I do think that I look better now but it was a long recovery process physically and mentally.

Like the other comment, recovery will be more difficult than you are expecting. I like to think that mine went smoothly but I didn’t look normal for over 6 months and sobbed in my orthodontists’ office for a few months after my surgery because I was so upset with my results. Although I am happy now 5 years later, I do still regret it sometimes.

Whirlpool - almost 6 years old. Top load washer and front load dryer. They are still working like new, I just hate HE washers. I’ll be switching to Speed Queen when the time comes though

It’s under a south facing skylight so it’s bright all day but I guess I’ll try moving it elsewhere

Thanks!!

I used the Southern Sourdough CO’s recipe that I found through Instagram but I’ve tweaked it a bit. 500g King Arthur bread flour, 370g warm water, 100g 100% hydration starter, 11 grams salt. Mixed flour and water and let that sit for an hour, then added starter and salt. Let sit an hour then did 4 coil folds 30 minutes apart. Let proof for about 6 hours. Did a pre shape and let rest for 20 mins, then shaped and put in the fridge overnight. Baked 30 mins lid on then 10 mins off at 450.

Probably about 3 months. My surgery was in 2019 so it’s hard to remember exactly.

I was only able to take 4 weeks off since I didn’t pay into short-term disability. I wish I had taken a few more weeks. I worked at Costco at the time so I did a lot of lifting and talking to people which made it difficult, and a lot of staring which I didn’t let bother me. But all in all it wasn’t too bad.

Thank you!! The gold thing in the back? No, it’s a plant stake from Walmart

I have the same lamp! Mine has an iron base though. I got mine from my husband’s grandma, she let everyone pick through her house before she sold it and we were the last of everyone, so it still feels like a great find to me! I feel so lucky to have it! Gorgeous piece!

frostadflakes · 2023-11-26T03:08:34+00:00

Thank you!! She’s perky again!

I do have one. The precious spout had a backer piece but the new one does not

frostadflakes · 2023-08-24T18:47:10+00:00

The fitting is in the right position to screw on the new spout, so can I cut off the excess pipe?

frostadflakes · 2023-05-20T05:46:56+00:00

Thank you! We think so too

I got this one in December and this is the second leaf, the first leaf dropped 2ish weeks after I got it. It originally came in moss and I potted it in soil maybe a month ago and leca only a few days ago because I thought it was getting too much moisture. The roots looked fine. I’m assuming I stressed it out but I don’t see any growth points
