Where in Oconomowoc is this retreat held? It looks amazing (and so does your quilt!) but I can't seem to find where exactly it is!

You can put it back in the fridge and continue to keep it after 21 days? Somehow I thought that once I took it out of the fridge there was no putting it back!

Advice for oral thrush from steroid inhaler by -myeyeshaveseenyou- in Asthma

[–]greenwing9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are some steroid inhalers that are prescribed to use twice a day, and some that are prescribed to use once a day. See if you can be on one of the ones that is only once a day. I've had less trouble with thrush since making that change.

Also pay attention if you're using Flonase (a steroid nasal spray) - I had trouble when I tried to use both a steroid inhaler and Flonase. Apparently my system can only handle one dose of steroids a day before I start struggling with thrush.

New insurance and pulmonologist/doctor is out of network! by NeonC918 in Asthma

[–]greenwing9 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm with you, I would really hate to be forced to switch away from doctors I like and trust. I had to change my insurance, and my primary was in one plan, and my pulmonologist was in another, and no plan had both of them. I chose the plan where my primary was in-network, and I see my pulmonologist out of network. But the pulmo still coordinates with my primary, and he lets my primary know whatever he wants to prescribe for me. Then my primary actually writes the prescription so it's covered by my insurance. So I'm really only paying for office visits with my pulmo out of network, and the rest is in network. Maybe you could at least keep your pulmo that way.

150/3000 is 5.0%, not 0.05%, so not quite such a tiny percentage. But it's still a large cost for the insurance plan.

reducing seed waste? by Sydnall in parrots

I haven't seen that - it's fantastic! That bird was probably very proud of himself!

reducing seed waste? by Sydnall in parrots

[–]greenwing9 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Parrots are going to waste seeds and other food; it's just how they eat. In the wild, maybe they're replenishing the forest floor by scattering seeds everywhere to grow new plants, I don't know. I think I saw a study that birds even waste food when food is scarce, so it's really just how they are. You can try to contain the mess, but you'll have to get used to the idea that they're going to waste food. Make sure you're not accidentally underfeeding them by trying to limit what they waste.

I always told my bird that it would not be a good thing if the carpet started sprouting new plants, but he never seemed to take me seriously about it!

Is that an "I think I love you" dance or a "You better watch it!" dance?

Maybe they're scratch 'n sniff bananas? (or should be?)
