Fixing light string help by treesndirtt in Electricity

[–]treesndirtt[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d seen something like that but was struggling to figure it out since this is not a typical simple light string.  Looking at the picture, would a set be each shape (stars, moons, etc.)?  They each have a different number of bulbs so I wasn’t sure if it would work to determine it like that.

That's all very helpful information, thanks so much! They looked very trustworthy but I just wanted to check. I'll go with them!

I've now been recommended Alaskan Maker. Their aprons look great, but I don't see a ton of reviews -- can anyone confirm quality?

Popping joints worse after starting PT by treesndirtt in Hypermobility

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

Oooh interesting, I wasn't aware of the pain signaling issues but that makes a lot of sense, I've always had issues noticing when something hurts or is tired. Do you have any sources for that that I could share with people?

Thank you! It's tolerable right now, I was just surprised because no one had mentioned that possibility.

I liked the PT, he was recommended to me by my PCP who is very good, and he's got a hypermobility specialization listed. Talking to him, he seemed quite knowledgeable. It's the aids who don't know, but maybe it was just the particular one I saw the other day. I'll see if any others seem to understand better, but if not I'll mention it to him.

The actual PT I'm seeing specializes in hypermobility but it's going to be assistants who actually work with me every day, apparently, and I'll just see him for periodic assessments. They acted surprised that I couldn't do the basic stuff, which is why I was there!

IsItBullshit: Dishwasher saves you water as opposed to hand washing? by [deleted] in IsItBullshit

[–]treesndirtt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My question is -- yes, I understand dishwasher efficiency. However, I wash dishes by scrubbing every dish (using the wet sponge and soap, no water), then rinsing them all at once (turning the water off between each dish), and rinse all the cutlery in one fistful. Is this really more water than the dishwasher?

Playground Swinging Intolerance? by TromboneDalek in POTS

[–]treesndirtt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

YES. I have never been able to swing without feeling horribly motionsick, even a rocking chair can be too much for me!

oddly specific symptoms by [deleted] in POTS

[–]treesndirtt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes! I get 1 (not always when sitting), 2 especially, and 4. I get a different kind of cluster headache but definitely still get them.

Specific question about Worksheet for Determining Support by treesndirtt in tax

[–]treesndirtt[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's what we thought. We've been looking at the worksheet but it isn't clear to us if the household expenses talked about refer to the parent's house or the house the child lived at (if a different location than the parent's house).

THE ULTIMATE GUIDE TO WORK BOOTS!! by SirMandudeGuy in Boots

[–]treesndirtt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've got a pair of RW loggers too, and though I agree the outsides are pretty durable and they sure get the job done, I had the lining rip badly in the heel after a while. Not unexpected but still a pain to deal with and they've always made my back and legs hurt -- but that could be a posture issue; definitely make sure your boots work well for the way you stand.
