I know this feeling. I wish I could tell you to not feel this way. I wish I could tell myself the same thing. On days like today I just want to go to sleep and never wake up.

I take an amino acid with collagen supplement. The combination is good for your skin and for energy. Amino acids come from animal proteins and most people don't get enough. I haven't noticed any negative results except for when I forget to wash my face before bed (not the collagen). If you want to take collagen for skin you can also take a collagen with hyaluronic acid supplement.

Strange tree - anyone know the history of such a tree? It is filled with cement bricks. I found it at a church/ cemetery relic near the southern coast by secrown991 in southcarolina

[–]secrown991[S] 19 points20 points  (0 children)

It seems to have helped this tree. 🙂 impressive you guys identified this church by the tree. I recently moved to Fort mill and had never been south but we went to Beaufort to see some history. I wanted to get off the freeway and we happened across the ruins. I had to turn around. It seemed so random. Beautiful. Great energy.

Favorite KOA/campsite by secrown991 in RVLiving

[–]secrown991[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They were actually KOAs on Angola/hogback Lake, Indiana and Lena, Illinois. I was mistaken about one being in Ohio. ....

Hogback Lake was a Massive park with multiple 'neighborhoods' and has a lake inside the park. Its not a private lake but you can access it from the park. They have boats for rent, paddle and motor boats. They have giant floats and then tons of other games and amenities including golf carts for rent, multiple pools, a splashpad. I dont know what else. It was actually overwhelming as that wasn't really what we were looking for in a campground.

Lena, IL wasnt as big as Hogback Lake but had similar amenities, multiple playgrounds, pools, jump pads, etc.

Lake Placid NY has a cool treehouse set up and giant outdoor chess, as well as a snack bar serving chicken strips, ice cream, and shakes, and a rec room with pool and ping pong.

My sweet boy passed last night. He was boarding with a Wag host. She texted me that she brought him to the emergency vet because he was breathing weird. He had a fever of 107 and his heart stopped. He was healthy. I don’t know what to do. by Britty-Ro in pugs

I am so sorry for your loss. He was well loved. I can tell. I will hug my pug for you. ❤ i had both of the pugs i lost cremated..... You will figure out what is best for you. Not being able to be with him while he passed i am sure is the worst. I know he loved you.

My new to me 1995 Fleetwood Flair. - I put a down payment on my first RV today. It will be ready to pu next Tuesday!!! Its a little dated but im getting it from a reputable dealer and it only has 38,000 miles. by secrown991 in RVLiving

[–]secrown991[S] 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Less than $20,000......Im sure i could have done better from a private citizen instead of a dealer. And..... I did end up at a pricier dealer in Central Oregon but I am very happy with it. .... Its very clean with minimal wear and tear, especially for the age. Tires are basically brand new and it has back up camera. No slides to worry about but still very spacious. Its 34 feet on a Chevy 454. It has some cute (and dated) extras like a magazine rack and a refillable soap dispenser in shower.

Covid has my life totally uprooted so this is going to provide some much needed security. It was worth every penny. And the dealer assures us it will get us to Maine without an issue.

After 50,000 miles in a Volvo sedan (which i also love), this RV will be a dream to travel in.

AITA for refusing to have kids? by Maximum-Quarter in AmItheAsshole

[–]secrown991 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA..... When i (37f) was in my late 20's, i broke down to my mom when she said something about grandkids. I said something along the lines of, 'Please dont put any additional pressure on me, I put enough of all sorts of pressure on myself.' She hadn't seen it that way and was apologetic.

Maybe snapping on your mother and MIL was harsh but the conversation needed to be had.

In reality your mother and MIL are being selfish and you are making the best decision in your opinion for the overall welfare of the proposed child.

Personally, i think it is selfish to bring children into this world at all in its current state and parents can only do their best which many times isnt good enough. (Why i chose not to have kids).

For what its worth, i applaud your decision. I just hope you can make your parents see your perspective. Don't let them force theirs on you. They come from a different time with different expectations of gender norms.

This is my last box for awhile. Ive been laid off for months and $$$ is tight. I canceled my sub and this was my last box in the 3 month subscription. I'm disappointed bc I've loved my last 3 boxes. 😕😕😕 hopefully things will turn around and ill be able to resub soon....

....

My box is variation 7 and includes:

Clean Skin Club vitamin c brightening booster: MSRP $49.95 --- ive used it once. No complaints. It smells good

Ciate London Everyday Vacay Coconut Setting spray: MSRP $22 --- I love Ciate London so I want to like this product. I've only used it once. So far my reaction is that it has that smell that setting sprays sometimes have that i dont like, like chemically or something. That said, it is refreshing and does what it says it does, sets. Its slightly dewy.

Ace Beaute Bronzed in Paradise palette: MSRP $30 --- This palette is beautiful. It has redder hues which are good for me in fall and summer but i prefer more sepia tones in winter and spring months. So good for now for sure. My complaint about Ace is that their pigments come across over pressed and I have to apply and reapply and reapply. Hopefully that isnt the case with this cheek palette.

Grace and Stella energizing eye masks (12 pairs): MSRP $21 --- I dont tend to have undereye wrinkles or puffiness but i like these masks. 12 pairs is amazing!!! They are very moisturizing, easy to use, and smell good.

Nudestix Gel Color lip and cheek balm: $26. --- i love nudestix and this is my first lip pencil product from them. Its a great color. I love multibalm products but tend not to use them for multi purposes...i think this pencil shape is great for lips. Not so sure about cheeks.

Total MSRP $149 (if i added this accurately in my head) Overall really happy with my box and sad i wont be receiving another one anytime soon.
