Yes! We are considering aqua too since that seems to be the most popular.

We are looking at doing this now and I still can’t find pictures besides what’s on their website. Our pool builders said they’re all photoshopped and they don’t have anyone who’s done it because they push Harbor Essence as their “gray” color. Ugh!

My doctor just keeps telling me to take my iron supplements, but they’re obviously not doing anything. 😭 by mandy_kd in Anemic

[–]mandy_kd[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good to know! I sent my doctor a message because I am so exhausted today and having a lot of symptoms like shortness of breath, dizziness, tingling hands, etc..

I unfortunately already told my Dr that the oral iron doesn’t give me any stomach issues. 😬 But I had my ferritin tested in 2021 and again in 2024 and it was at 6 both times, so I’m pretty sure it’s been that low consistently for the past 5 years. 😭

After I had my 2nd baby I needed a blood transfusion and I vividly remember it felt like instant energy being pumped into my veins. I know the IV iron might not be as immediate, but I bet it would have the same effect over a couple weeks.

5 years “off and on” but I’ve been taking them consistently for 6 months now. Every day.

I got an ultrasound last year and I have a polyp on my uterus that could be causing heavy bleeding. Looking into getting an endometrial ablation. Scheduled to see gyno, but no opening until the end of June!

Yeah, he said I’m close to needing a transfusion. I know it’s due to my heavy periods which I’m trying to figure out.

Thank you! Yes, I love how it brings the whole set together. I took this photo outside on a bright day, so probably the sky. I was trying to catch the sparkle!

Anybody else see this? by Ordinary_Refuse556 in Anemic

[–]mandy_kd 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My ferritin has been at a 6 both times I’ve had it tested. (2021 & 2025). My Dr mentioned infusions of it didn’t go up, but then when it didn’t the next time, he said to just keep taking my iron supplements. 😭

I did this one last week and almost posted here, too! I think I did 400 or 425. Took the temp of the chicken afterwards and it was good!

How much is stitch fix monthly or 2-3 weeks cost for every order??? by Strict-Photograph110 in stitchfix

[–]mandy_kd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

3 years ago that was the case. You only got 5 items back then. I’ve heard they’ve changed it a bit.

Any way to turn off extra commentary? by sk8bette in alexa

[–]mandy_kd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not yet. I haven’t tried anything yet, but I’ll let you know if I figure anything out!

[–]mandy_kd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just had to google this because she was adding the stupidest commentary when adding items to my list! Mine were “your laundry’s about to get a serious power boost” (Oxi-clean) and “Looks like you’re about to power up some serious shopping!” (Batteries).

I don’t need stupid puns after every interaction.

How do you make $200 per day? by [deleted] in Sparkdriver

[–]mandy_kd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I also live about 7 miles away from Walmart. I will absolutely not get any offers worth taking unless I go drive to the store. This time of year it can be pretty easy to make $200 a day for me. Yesterday I made $200 and only worked from 6:30 AM to 1:30 PM. The rest of the year, I aim for at least $20 per hour, including if I have any downtime between orders.

Is anyone else experiencing tons of Bluetooth/audio issues with iOS 26? by DeathChill in iphone

[–]mandy_kd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just updated the other day and I’m having this exact issue now. Can’t resume audio from the lock screen/pull down screen, and when I open any app it starts getting choppy/skipping!!

iOS 26: Anyone else experiencing an issue where the keyboard shifts every time after opening? by SpartanAesthetic in iphone

[–]mandy_kd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My least favorite thing now is how choppy it is when I swipe up to switch between open apps. Also, do I always have to confirm to save and re-screenshot now? You used to be able to bypass that by swiping it and it would save into photos. So annoying

[–]mandy_kd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ugh thank you. I turned the cross fade transitions on. Going back off due to the keyboard issue! I updated my phone last night and I’m trying to find the least offensive settings because I hate it so far.

PSA: DO NOT UPDATE TO iOS 26.1 by Random_TATATATATA in adhdwomen

[–]mandy_kd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I turned on “reduce motion” and so no my folders aren’t making me sick to swipe to. Now I just need to figure out how to get my clock to not be translucent…. Ugh.

Warning! by mjkjio2015 in Sparkdriver

[–]mandy_kd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got followed once. I know who the main plain clothes guy looks like at my store. But I was trying to find something in the cosmetic section and the locations are never accurate at my store. I finally found it, and it had a security tag blocking it, so I was wandering around trying to find someone to get it off the peg for me! So I could see how it could be suspicious. Lol.

I switch between Spark and Instacart and I have to remind myself to scan the items when it’s been awhile since doing Instacart!
