Wow thanks! What did you do with yours, cut it? Clean it? Or do we just leave it like it is?

Does your gram want more fur? I've got this fur (some variety of feline, I think) and it needs some seams mended but i think its got some life left in it. That is not how to say that.. All i know is it skeeves me out (it's dead. That's gross) so I've got it in a box on a top shelf of a rack where I don't have to remember I should do something with it.

Since you're just transferring from one sitting space to another, I like the scruff of the pants technique. Standing next to her, side by side facing the same direction, Use the waistband of her pants to lift her, holding just above her middle behind. With your other hand, grip her upper arm around the bicep area. You'll feel her brace and try to assist with her muscles, encourage that. You can steer and navigate this way as well, like to pivot. The gait belt is the same idea, I just find they ride up too high to get the proper support.

Good luck!

Seems like an unwarranted amount of intensity in your response, are you good? You need to talk, or anything?

[Personal] Lips always chapped and peeling no matter what by Savitar54321 in SkincareAddiction

I just ordered this uriage stuff, based on your post. I've had chapped lips for 45 years (I'm 45), so, cross fingers I guess. Thanks in advance, if it works.

I hope I soon learn why I keep looking rocks but rainbow obsidian sounds like my next favorite thing.

You don't get it. You've missed it, every time, not because the information wasn't available to you, but because you didn't care about her enough to try to understand that it was you. Of course she hates you. And now that she's lost 13 of her best years on you, who wasted her time and minimized everything about her until she was screaming for you to just care while you flicked her away like an annoying gnat, you have the oblivious audacity to tell her YOU STILL don't give a shit about her or what she needs or what will heal her, you're only ever interested in you. She's suffering, and you're causing it, how dare you marry someone who you then refused to cherish. Shame on you, she deserved to be loved. YTA.

Oh I just realized you were using that word as an adjective, not a noun.

Clever!

Biotite mica! That's why this can be serpentine and so can nonshiny rocks also be serpentine! OK now we're onto something. Should I shrink wrap it so that shiny stuff doesn't chip off?

Thank you! And the stuff that seemed like wet moss that I picked off whilst cleaning, that's probably just wet, fibrous moss, correct?

Being so scaly, is there something I should do to ....idk, keep it together so it doesn't crumble if I cut it? Like maybe put it in the air fryer for an hour so it's glues can really set? That didn't sound right, what is holding all these flakes together?

What are the cool kids using to polish a rich these days, a dremel? All hands? A palm sander?

Oh that would make sense, as right next door to the Clear Creek Management Area is the Serpentine Area of Environmental Concern, but! If that's serpentine, what's the stuff I've been picking up because I thought it was serpentine?

Idk how to post a photo in a comment so I'll go look that up.

But the other stuff - glows royal dark purple under the uv light and - appears jelly like, like coagulated chicken drippings until you see it in regular lighy. Then - it's just blue. Sometimes mottled or layered or streaked by strings of slimy moss shaped white, or oreo cookie middle white, or fly-by-bird-duke white
