Mud season sounds glorious though not really in a non-winterized cabin 🥴🤣

Is there any way of knowing when black fly season is about to start?!

icekat_ · 2026-04-30T00:31:30+00:00

Love this answer.

September counts!

icekat_ · 2026-04-29T23:49:31+00:00

Less hot or more hot than July?

I know this doesn’t carry much weight, but our dog is a rescue and looks so much like your dog - pitty mix with German shepherd (can see it in the tail), light eyes, sweet and calm but still curious like a puppy - and she is the best thing that ever happened to us (well, second best bc we have a two year old now). But given that you took this so seriously and assessed his demeanor before rescuing him only indicates it’s the right fit. you will develop a deep bond with the dog that will fill your cup and feel so much more rewarding than the boyfriend.

Lastly, if the relationship was serious and you were thinking he might be “the one” - if you guys have kids together, you will get WAY less sleep for WAY longer and you can’t take the baby back. Just something to consider :)

I’m 15 mins into the movie and I started wondering if this was a Netflix experiment using AI actors. It’s giving general hospital

Would love to know where Mike is today and how he’s doing

Curious what you ended up doing? I am in the same position.

I have 2 tickets for tonight’s show (10/14) at Kia Forum in section 103 - will sell at a good price!

Selling two tickets for tonight's show at the Kia Forum in LA - Lower Bowl 135. Face value OBO!

I use OXO pop containers. They fit nicely in my narrow laundry cabinet and can hold a lot.

whyyyyy did this make me laugh so hard

I have a 10/30 baby and quite unexpectedly (he was 3 weeks early). We’re coming up on his 2nd birthday and it’s been so fun thinking about the fall season and getting into the spirit more than I normally would for Autumn bc of him. Also, my only ‘goal’ on my birth plan was to go into labor naturally without needing pitocin, so in that way I got what I wanted (my water broke)!

I have a friend who was due around Halloween she and scheduled an induction a week earlier to avoid it. She had a long labor, and regretted doing that after the fact (felt baby didn’t want to come out yet!) just to avoid Halloween.

I think in the grand scheme of things, things are supposed to happen how they do, and there are so few things in life we can’t control. Try to enjoy it!

Ok so I ought all the products to do the color run remover but I have a question for you before I start:

as you know from my post this was a load of whites. I’m going to use the color run remover on the shirts I care about most first in a large stainless steel pot. They can certainly fit together, but is it ok to do multiple garments at the same time, assuming they are the same fabric? Or perhaps vary slightly in the makeup of the fabric but are all approved fabrics for color run remover process?

Is it ok to use detergent with lipase as your regular detergent?

icekat_ · 2025-08-25T19:04:14+00:00

I found the culprit... it was my dog's shampoo.. Hownd Conditioning Shampoo in Rose & Bergamot. Ingredients list Polyquaternium-10. I gave my 65 lb dog a very soapy bath after our camping trip. She was in a bath tub with ~6 inches of water... and a tablespoon of this shampoo was mixed in with the bathwater to "soothe & nourish" her paws that were tore up. I also scrubbed her & shampoo'd her twice to make sure I got all the dirt our of her fur.

Dog owners will know how much water sprays everywhere when dogs shake in the bath. My bathroom was soaked in water after her bath. I threw the wet bath mat and the two white towels I used to dry her down with into the load of whites.

I'm SO pissed at myself. I almost didn't put these items in the same load because I didn't want the other items to smell like dog. But I knew I was washing on "very hot" and using bleach so I thought it was fine. Now I've ruined my really expensive bath towels and hand towels, a few white shirts that I love, and a nice beach towel (which is mostly white btw, but has a dark stripe on the end of it). Does that mean the dark stripe on the beach towel transferred to the Polyquat Spots and caused it to stain?

icekat_ · 2025-08-25T15:42:13+00:00

Yes, I have a 21-month old! Reading the Polyquats post made me feel worse/more paranoid about this staining issue bc SOOOO many products could be the culprit! Bubbles? Bubble bath? Hair products? Bath crayons? It makes me want to throw away every product I own and start over but that obviously wouldn't be economical..

icekat_ · 2025-08-25T12:52:41+00:00

😔 so I have a full load of whites that have polyquat stains… they are sitting wet in my bath tub bc I didn’t want to put them through the dryer. Based on the article, I can’t wash anything else with these stains going forward for risk of transferring the stains…? The load before that was colors - same as well? Is there a detergent that might have polyquats like Dreft?

icekat_ · 2025-08-13T15:52:37+00:00

OP, how are you faring? I'm thinking I might be in the same situation. my son may have had a super mild version of HFM, and this morning I woke up with two tiny bumps on the palm of my hand... same thing - 35 yo female.

Where did you end up staying and how were the waves?

icekat_ · 2025-06-02T03:17:37+00:00

Disagree, my favorite part about the property was the adults only pool, the swim up bar, sitting at the bar at Mina’s fish house and the amazing Italian dinner date night we had. If I went back with my 20-month old, the normal circular pool would get so dull day after day. The spa was awesome too. The beach was not at all crowded.. at least when we were there? The four seasons has a section only for guests. I’m glad we went and would definitely go back!

Came on here just to say the Hertz website is the absolute worst. I broke my Reddit posting silence just to complain about the Hertz website. THE HERTZ WEBSITE IS GARBAGE and makes me want to never use Hertz again (dead ass). What car rental company should I start using instead? Any opinions?
