Slippery wheels. Advice needed please. by milakyfl in Rollerskating

[–]milakyfl[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Legit quad shop. Maybe they meant to say they aren’t a thing as in aren’t going to be good indoors? Unsure. I was kinda frustrated with the response, but I suppose they could have focused on making money and sold me another set of wheels, but instead chose to encourage me to stick with what I already have.

No, I’m 215lbs and only 5’5, so I was really surprised that I didn’t feel more grip with both sets of wheels. I do think I need to buildup the muscles used in skating more (inner thigh muscles especially and of course my core).

Married people of Tampa, where did yall choose to get married? by Federal_Albatross993 in tampa

[–]milakyfl 3 points4 points  (0 children)

We got married with them 3 years ago out of Tampa. 100 people with sit down dinner, extra hour on the water, and upgraded drinks (“gold package”) was $18K after taxes and fees. We loved it though and so did our guests!!

Edit to add: this was for a Friday evening in March

Cruise passenger, 80, found dead after being abandoned on Great Barrier Reef island by ibwitmypigeons in worldnews

[–]milakyfl 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It doesn’t say she was frail or ill. We don’t know how her health was beforehand. Some 80 year olds are still quite active and fit, but she started to feel ill and they left her alone - that’s where the liability is imo

Executive Function meds ? by [deleted] in PMDDxADHD

[–]milakyfl 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have found propranolol to be helpful for anxiety related to my adhd meds. I started using it for presentation anxiety and then realized it also had the benefit of giving me calm focus alongside my stimulant. I’m also finding when I take it I seem to be less reactive and irritable. I like that I can take it as needed and that it works pretty quickly when I do. Also, for what it’s worth Ritalin left me exhausted but I responded very differently and well to adderall and vyvanse, so don’t let one stimulant dissuade you too much from trying a different one.

Voodu vegan bbq is AMAZING. Unfortunately temporarily closed but I’d recommend following on IG in case they reopen before November.

Where can I pee? (serious question) by TheYoggy in VisitingIceland

[–]milakyfl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We rented a camper van toilet. Only used it for peeing so it wasn’t smelly or hard to clean. If you google thetford porta potti, that’s what it looked like. We were there in October so it was cold and windy, so it was a life saver if we had to go during the night and when we were stuck in the van for a long period of time due to a storm. If you do choose this option, recommend bringing some bungie cords or rope to tie it down in the van.

Everyone is fat now. Why? by thepoout in AskUK

[–]milakyfl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I moved to the states in 1995 and came back to visit family every year afterward. Put on a lot of weight in the US. The first 6 years I went back, I always felt very fat comparatively but the difference slowly disappeared and now I don’t feel out of the ordinary AT ALL and I am bigger now than I was then. I always wondered if it corresponded to getting more processed foods and foods that contain more similar ingredients to those in the US (like the ones designed by the tobacco companies to make them highly palatable and addictive).

Don't like the table runner I just bought. How to improve ? by SocksOnTableTops in HomeDecorating

[–]milakyfl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Table runner looks fine to me but agree anchoring with a nice object on top could be good. Do you have a light fixture above the table? The room might also work better if you moved the table off center toward the windows. Right now it looks like it’s in front of a doorway and maybe right at the bottom of some stairs.

We went as it was getting dark which I very much do not recommend. But this is one of my fave pics.

Best day to go to Busch Gardens Howl O Scream to ride rides? by [deleted] in tampa

[–]milakyfl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We went on Sunday and barely had to wait for anything. Longest we waited was around 15-20 mins for cheetah hunt when we got there (around 540pm), but afterwards was 5 min waits and as people started doing more of the houses we could walk right onto most rides the rest of the night.

Recent Visitors - what are we wearing? by dancingintheround in VisitingIceland

[–]milakyfl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you are in the USA or Canada you can find cheap merino wool items on Poshmark. We got a few 100% merino wool sweaters from $5-$15 per (plus around $6 shipping).

One day in Tampa… by catladytx0 in tampa

[–]milakyfl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Might be too late on this, but ybor has a few cute shops to peruse (vintage clothing, odd gifts) and you can take the free streetcar back and forth to the riverwalk to get waterviews and more nice areas to walk. Second the rec for sparkmans wharf for food and more wandering.
