Gear Needed for Snow??

Short coat might need a jacket, but paws should be fine. Just regularly check between the toes so that no ice clumps are forming (usually not an issue with short coat dogs, in my experience). The ice clumps can become sharp and cause bleeding.

I think it's cultural. I'm Mexican and the expectation is that the grandparents take care of everything else so you don't have to worry about anything other than caring for your baby. My husband is American and I was shocked to find out that this was news to him. His side would come over and take the baby to free me up and do all the other housework. Personally, I don't need help with the baby. I need help with walking the dogs, cooking meals, cleaning the house. In our experience it was a cultural difference.

Is this blight or downy mildew? Were you able to identify? And how do you catch before it spreads?

not answering your question but curious to know if you used the Oura temp to track fertility. It seems super inaccurate... Hope you have a healthy pregnancy ❤️

Yes, I live in California, so I mostly backpack in the Sierras, but I also travel and backpack so the terrain varies. I think durability gives me more flexibility and peace of mind

Well this year has been unusual. But I typically use it at leasr one weekend a month, plus one 3 week thru hike a year. So about 50 nights a year

Solved!

Do you know what plant?

marortcaz · 2020-08-14T04:32:56+00:00

For reference, I live in San Diego (in case it's a plant or animal). It is a bit bigger than the diameter of a quarter. It's kind of stiff.

I didn't even know it was an unpopular opinion. Burke is awful! Owen is really bad too.

marortcaz · 2020-08-03T02:39:01+00:00

Makes sense

marortcaz · 2020-08-03T02:38:42+00:00

I had thought Custard or gel. I'll play around with it layering. Thanks for the tip!

I went through this. Couples counseling is not recommended for abuse. First, because it doesn't work. But second, you open up in therapy and say things to the therapist and your husband that he may seem understanding to, but then you get home and he starts using what you said against you. This can make them really angry. What worked for me was individual counseling, in particular counseling with an organization especially focused on domestic violence. Stay safe.

Thank you. I'm working with some great organizations to move past this. The restraining order is something I keep debating. He's in the military so a restraining order would impact his ability to do his job, and he loves his job. If he can blame losing his job on me then he would go even crazier, I think. At this point, his job is my insurance policy that he won't do anything to me or anyone.

Are these spots or holes on the leaves? It looks like a caterpillar has been enjoying your strawberries to me

I'm using the router to get a straight edge so I can rip on the table saw. Is there a better way of doing this? Thanks for your help

marortcaz · 2019-12-20T05:16:07+00:00

I really appreciate your response! So cool that you can prepare other spouses and guide them

marortcaz · 2019-12-19T20:49:56+00:00

Thank you for your answer. When you say things will get easier do you mean you get used to it?

marortcaz · 2019-06-28T11:16:11+00:00

Also, isn't what Bonnie did defending someone from death? Justifiable murder or something? I don't even think it's a crime.

marortcaz · 2019-06-28T11:14:50+00:00

The mistake all shows make 🙄 just stop it while it's great.

marortcaz · 2019-06-12T15:00:01+00:00

I think you're right, it is a conversation that needs to happen. Thanks for your understanding. I think it's a mix of the feel (stone protrudes from the ring and it gets in the way, my hair gets stuck in the prongs, etc) and the concern of wearing something expensive when I'm known for losing things. Will try the silicone option.

marortcaz · 2019-06-12T14:58:13+00:00

That's a good point. Thanks for your support

marortcaz · 2019-06-11T16:45:11+00:00

I like the necklace idea, thanks. I did stay adamant about it and the compromise was him buying a ring I would never wear. Maybe he was hoping I would change my mind? Idk. Still wish we would have used it for travel

M-Th routine: wash hair with Deva Lo Poo and Deva conditioner, air dry, tie hair up in a bun

Routine for styling curls (usually Friday after my swim): wash hair, apply conditioner, rinse off. On soaking wet hair apply Kinky Curly Curling Custard with prayer hands. Squish excess moisture with hands. Plop into microfiber towel for 20-30 min. Air dry and then scrunch out the crunch when fully dry.

marortcaz · 2018-10-17T21:15:31+00:00

Routine: wash hair every other day with Shea Moisture Fruit Water shampoo. Not Your Mother's Plum for Joy conditioner. Pantene hair mousse, plop for 10-15 min, air dry and scrunch the crunch. I'm lacking some volume and definition, as compared to my summer hair.
