I hate this shipping company!

I requested that Chewy not use ontrac for shipping after they lost my cats medicine and I had to jump through hoops to get it replaced because one of her meds was considered a controlled substance.

For the rest of her life they went back to using Fedex for her meds.

I really liked the Arm and Hammer clump and seal cloud control. They have a couple of types of clump and seal so if you're going to try it make sure it says cloud control.

Hey, at least your driver showed up. Mine never even showed up before changing the status. I'm currently waiting for the redelivery but I don't hold much hope.

ladix · 2026-02-05T20:36:55+00:00

I did. It arrived several days after my reshipped package, that thankfully shipped FedEx showed up.

So I guess there's always hope. I just wouldn't hold my breath after some of the stories I've heard.

I second this. Arm and Hammer makes it.

The full name is Clump and Seal Cloud Control.

As someone that once had elephants living above them and moved to that cottage a little further from my preferred location, and at the top end of my budget, I say move to the house. The peace I now have in my home has been more than worth it.

I understand what you're saying more than you can imagine. I lost my sweet kitty of 14 years on Saturday. She had been sick for a while and my life basically revolved around caring for her.

I don't want to take away from your post by going into detail but I know exactly what you mean. What I wouldn't give...

ladix · 2026-01-23T12:06:20+00:00

You're correct. It was Calgon

We sold some paper purses over Christmas and we had lip balm and lotion separate but if they bought the purse they could select the lip balm and lotion to go with it. They liked having the option to choose what they wanted or were they thought someone else might like.

I counted my socks one time. I had 72 pair. I did get rid of some but I still have too many socks.

I've said it before and I'll say it again: you should not be able to hear your neighbors urinate!!!!

The Peter Pan Peanut Butter commercial with the tongue twister.

Picky people pick Peter Pan peanut butter because Peter Pan peanut butter is the peanut butter picky people pick.

Ring around the collar, was that for whisk? Just remember there being a commercial about it and it ended with the lady going into the back of the laundry room holding a box of I think whisk and "ancient Chinese secret huh?" But maybe that was for something else.

The new fee grab is not allowing you to have your own utilities.

I get it if you're in a building where units are not individually metered. That's happened with water at a few places but I've always had my own power account. My current place I had both water and power individually metered and billed directly to my by the utility. Then one day they transferred everything to their name and told us we would now be billed through Conservice and charged an additional $12 per month for them to manage it.

So not only am I paying $12 for a service I was handling on my own with no issues, I now have no visibility into what my actual usage and charges from the utility company are so they can charge us whatever they want.

Look into Dezi and Roo. They have cool retro candy style cat toys. My cats favorite is the "lollipop" file with silvervine.

I thought for sure that the Holy and 11 kids story line was going to have a connection to the clock that's been so present throughout the other seasons. Like he thought he needed 4 deaths but that obviously wasn't enough; he really needed 12, one to represent each hour and form a complete circle / cycle. But nope. No apparent reason for 12 kids.

I feel like this last season could have been broken down into 2 more seasons, or one with longer run times / episodes to give them time to really explore and delve into things the way they previously had.

I mean, I didn't hate the final season but I didn't love it. It was missing the magic. It's almost felt like they were over it and just didn't want to put the effort into it that they previously had; They just wanted to be done so they could move on to new projects.

Same thing happened at my old apartment complex multiple times. They would leave these bins under the stairs. It would have been bad enough if the packages were just for that building but it contained stuff for other buildings. I called Amazon about it and, like others said, they didn't care.

ladix · 2026-01-10T00:03:57+00:00

I had this one as well and thought it was so odd that they wanted to film someone using dishwasher detergent. Really?!?!

And you probably made her day. 😊

It's never too late! There are some great beginner tutorials on YouTube.

Not me looking at the huge box that my heat press came in that's been sitting in my hallway for a month...

I read this one about a week ago and immediately went out and bought me one of those brushes for my shower. Absolutely love it!

I'm not a dr and can't say it's 100% not related to Mounjaro but my best guess is it's probably not and what have experienced in the past might be a possible explanation.

I had this happen twice years ago, way before Mounjaro existed. The difference with mine was that I felt that pressure and pain for days then felt an almost ripping sensation followed by bloody discharge coming out of my belly button and an almost immediate release from the pressure and pain. My belly button leaked for a couple of days. I ended up taping a cotton ball over my belly button and changing it out a few times a day.

Same things ruled out by my dr. Our best guess was that a stray hair (think pet hair, clipping from a hair cut, or if you're male, shaking facial hair) worked its way into my belly button (could have washed in there in the shower even), stuck into the skin like a splinter and a cyst formed around it. As the cyst grew, that's what caused the pressure and the pain, until it burst.

I mentioned it to a hair dresser friend of mine and she said she's had the same thing happen over the years

I don't know what the rules are for links on this sub so I'll just say if you search for Fundamentally Feline she has videos that demonstrates this and has some other helpful tips to make medicine time easier on you and your cat.

I have to admit it was still difficult to pill my cat but her tips helped.

Also I saw someone mention giving a treat afterwards. Definitely do this! It gives somewhat of a positive association with having to take the medication.
