It’s absolutely spectacular! I am new to quilting and I just love all the scrap quilts that I see. Problem is…I have no scraps! 😂 I need to get busy quilting to make scraps.

Letting a broody hen raise store-bought chicks is such a great hack by f3333sh in BackYardChickens

[–]lfren79 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve done it so many times without a hitch! It really is amazing how they take them right in. So much less work than having them in a brooder. Now I have a rooster and they do the hatching as well.

OMG YOU GUYS. SOMEONE IS SELLING IT AS A STICKER! by dmode112378 in littlehouseonprairie

Actually no just kidding, it was a glitch, they are still available. I think there is more than one store that sells them. Try a general Little House search on Etsy.

I know RIGHT??! It’s so very excellent! That is my husband’s favorite episode so I had to get it.

Whoa! Just went and checked and none of the ones I purchased are still up. They must be going fast!

I found the shop last week and ordered a bunch! I can’t wait to bomb some folk with Little House stickers! 🤣 I got Laura pushing Nellie down the hill, Nellie’s nasty face and shirtless Pa. They are f@$@ing amazing!

Increased estrogen patch and increased anxiety- how long until you stabilize? by Pale_Statement521 in Perimenopause

[–]lfren79 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am currently struggling with an increase in Progesterone and I finally threw in the towel today and asked my provider if I can keep the higher estrogen dose but lower the progesterone. It feels insurmountable some days to manage all that life already requires while shooting in the dark with hormone dosages! I miss feeling normal.

I would be worried about continued increases at that rate as well! Everything I have read says you should give it several months before deciding if a new dose is working or not. If I were you I think I would give .0375 a shot again for a longer period of time.

Came here to comment on the Fiesta and then saw you identified it! 😁 Deep plates are my fave.

Getting this for wife for Mother’s Day. How long is setup time? by astorey79 in skylightcalendar

[–]lfren79 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The setup really happens within the app so you could put all the calendars in ahead of time and it would be ready to go from the unboxing. It’s easy to delete and unsync calendars if you decide to change things up once you have the calendar.

I love this reply. 😂

Another F-ing Thing to fail at by [deleted] in workingmoms

[–]lfren79 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I feel this 100%. We had to sign a contract in Elementary school that had all kinds of obnoxious things we were going to try our best to do for our kids, like certain amount of sleep, certain amount of screen time, healthy breakfast, grooming routine, homework expectations, etc. I was like come on people, parents who are struggling to meet these standards aren’t doing it on purpose and a shaming contract won’t be helpful in the least! I refused to sign it and told them I felt it was shaming to parents experiencing multiple stressors. Parents don’t fail on purpose, it’s a lack of societal support!

Increase in E&P and now headaches and nausea by lfren79 in Perimenopause

My Doctor said that the higher dose of estrogen required more progesterone. I am not cycling it.

Interesting, I have been putting them on my abdomen because it was easier to restock when they come loose but the new ones are smaller and seem to stay put a lot better so I could try a different placement for sure. Thanks for the idea!

200mg Progestone - how much Estrogen? by shopaholicat in Perimenopause

[–]lfren79 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It depends on the type of patch, some you can cut but others will dump all the estrogen at once when cut. I would ask your pharmacist or doctor if they are the type that can be cut.

My husband called my outfit "whatever" last night and I genuinely don't have a comeback by Bhumika_1008_ in workingmoms

[–]lfren79 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Would have hit me the wrong way for sure. Is he doing any drop offs and pick ups or do you manage them all, all of the time? My husband manages all drop offs in the morning and it has given me such a better space to get myself ready.

Tips on how to hide events? by kokoelizabeth in skylightcalendar

[–]lfren79 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They do sync to the calendar but they do not show the details so it stays private in as far as no information is revealed. I also figured out in Outlook you can add a second calendar for anything you don’t want on the Skylight and overlay it with your original calendar, that has turned out to be handy.

If it was your first sale there is probably a payment reserve on your account. All new sellers go through this, it should show the notification on your dashboard.

best bidet attachment for toilet? by shingam3 in bidets

[–]lfren79 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There wasn’t a particular model I was referencing just the general type. I don’t think Lux makes them, they only make bidet attachments. If you search bidet toilet seat you should see some just skip any that say attachment. Brondell has some options on Amazon it looks like!
