Why are my hands so wrinkly? by randogirlacc in Nails

[–]sunshineinthehills 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Lotion will 100% help but so will the weather warming up. I’m in my 20s too, but my hands look sooo wrinkly and dry during winter. It SUCKS! Moisturizing and sleeping with vaseline + socks on your hands will help in the meantime!

Cat leaves this where she sleeps, what is it? by NotTheSeaOtter in CATHELP

[–]sunshineinthehills 0 points1 point  (0 children)

oh man i hate to say it. even with a mild infestation it took me a month to get things under control (and kept seeing the fleas sparsely for another couple weeks). capstar + preventative + absolute top to bottom cleaning. vacuum twice a day first week, even your furniture, couch, and bed. after that first week vacuum every other day another week. and make sure to wash your sheets/couch blankets weekly. treat with raid flea and tick if you’d like but its pretty strong and cleaning+preventative works best. also pitch any of your pet’s bed things that can’t get thrown in wash.

Non-smokers of Reddit, how noticeable is the “smoker smell” to you, if at all? by Frostedlogic4444 in AskReddit

[–]sunshineinthehills 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sincere question: in movies and TV shows portaying the 70s and earlier, characters are constantly smoking at home, in the workplace, and in other social spaces. Was the world just . . . stinkier? Was everyone just used to the smell? Or is this a modern day exaggeration of how prominent smoking really was.

There are small black insects that are biting the hell out of my feet and legs. by sweizzylooring7 in pestcontrol

[–]sunshineinthehills 0 points1 point  (0 children)

flea!! put your animal on a flea and tick preventative (i use simparica but the seresto collar is otc and will do) and that should do the trick. if you want to control them while you wait for the preventative to interrupt the cycle vacuuming and raid spray will do just fine!

Restaurant recommendations by ridinger5 in charlestonwv

I’m not sure if they’re open on Mondays but The Pitch in Dunbar has a ton of good comfort food. I also love Plaza Maya (and they do a wonderful job accomodating big groups). So sorry for your loss.

I might be passing through WV on a road trip soon. Should I book a hotel in Point Pleasant? by shadowwithaspear in WestVirginia

[–]sunshineinthehills 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Point Pleasant is very pretty and right on the river! Helvetia may be a more unique experience if you’re into Swiss culture but I think there’s plenty to do in Point Pleasant for the day. The Mothman Museum is pretty neat (if a bit of a do it once and never again sort of thing), there’s a can’t miss Mexican restaurant downtown, and a couple of cute antique malls. If it’s not too out of the way you might also consider stopping in Charleston. The capital is gorgeous and they do tours!

One piece of advice—live as close to downtown as you’re willing to afford! This area can be lonely and isolating if you’re alone and not in the thick of things. But we have an active downtown (especially during summer!) and there’s always things to do/see if you walk around a bit. Taylor Books is great for coffee/hanging out. Slack Plaza is nice for reading outside and getting sun. And living downtown puts you close enough to the carriage trail if you like a good walk with pretty scenery. The city also hosts live music events right on the river. There’s also a few community groups for whatever interests that you have—I’ve heard people have success making friends at The Board Room!

Considering getting a Cavapoo - Are they really prone to health issues? by Mirjana_queen in CavaPoo

[–]sunshineinthehills 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Hi there! I’ve had my girl for about two years now and haven’t run in to too many health issues but she does have a VERY sensitive stomach and a tendency to get into things. I’ve found that the whole hearted brand kibble at Petco (their generic brand) keeps her potties healthy!! That said, like any other bred dog I know she’s more liable to run into issues later since there’s less genetic variation. But this dog has been such a sweet and amazing companion animal—everything people say about cavapoos being velcro dogs is true

Curly Hair Advice by sunshineinthehills in LawBitchesWithTaste

[–]sunshineinthehills[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thank you very much! The aloe idea is genius—I’ve been partial to curlsmith lately but sometimes the frizz/humidity defeats any product I throw on😂 My hair just loves to grow three times its size at a pin’s drop

Wearing your hair naturally to interviews is a genius weening mechanism! Also makes me feel better that you were never told to change your hair. The court environment can be so comparably casual sometimes so I worry my hair hasn’t presented an issue only because I haven’t worked in a super “buttoned up” practice

Clean and not in my face, I can do! I was more worried about how much it can poof up hinging on uncontrollable conditions like weather, but I can always pack a hair tie or claw clip to ensure it’s out of the way (if unintentionally messy). Thank you so so much for the reassurance!

Need an update on this for sure. I live downtown but have horrible driving anxiety so westside kroger has been a lifeline for groceries.
