I'm running out of my B complex vitamin. What's the best hippie brand? It is my assumption that you will know the answer to this.
Do you methylate properly? The MTHFR stuff? I'm learning about all of that and I am waiting on my results to find out how my pathways are working. I really like BlueBonnet brand vitamins, they have methyl/non-methyl, depending on your needs.
This is the first time anyone has ever asked me this. LOL. I don't know my MTHFR status, but I'm absolutely willing to use my body as a science experiment. If I'm a MTHFR mutant, which one should I take?

Careful, if you do have it, you'll be introducing something that your body doesn't process so well in the non-methylated form, so it could do some 'waking things up' and WOO!, you'll feel it. Start small if you're unsure? I'm just learning, no sciences degree, don't mind me.
My H decided he needed to go to a physical therapist for some knee issue. They gave him 6 strengthening exercises to do, but he is also supposed to go back once a week for the next 3 weeks. I asked him what the copay was, and he was like "oh, I think $35." Just checked our bank account. It was $75. Fuck me.
That sucks! My H hurt his neck and shoulder playing baseball. He's been in PT twice a week for two months. The damn copays are $35 each time. It's cost almost $600 and his shoulder still hurts. I told him it's a sign that he needs to stop playing sports.

I made 14 jars of cherry lime jam and 12 jars of mixed berry jam this morning. My house smells heavenly! OMG the sticky! Everything is sticky. Sticky and pink.
Super excited - Friday and Sat are Comic Con!! (For me, technically starts tonight) This is my 5th year and it is so much fun. Plus it is a girls weekend with my Mom and sis, and we are staying down in San Diego. Can't freaking wait.
Sorry @tambcat. Was he referred to a PT or did he decide on his own to go?
He just decided on his own. Something he needs for his running, you know!
There's a very real chance it would be covered by insurance if he got a referral... maybe back track to his primary care and restart? We had that dilemma trying to get my H in for a hand therapist.
Just work and house selling stuff. Waiting to hear about a showing that expressed some interest yesterday. Renters moving out early. And work stress. I just want to go somewhere on vacation from responsbilities for a while.
gretchenindisguise you're doing amazing, considering. pregnancy and home buying/selling is all so stressful, independently of one another. One or the other had me miserable, both at once would have me rocking underneath the kitchen table.
Hang in there! Any chance you can do a B&B or something overnight with H or a girlfriend? Lowkey but something relaxing?

Thank you so much for the kind words.
No nights away until the house is sold because we're on a money crunch (which is also not helping my stress). This weekend should be lowkey though, so that's a bonus. Hopefully we'll just lay around the pool for a good chunk of time.
I bought a Blendtec! Cannot wait to get it. I've been obsessing over Blendtec vs Vitamix for weeks. Blendtec being dishwasher-safe is what swayed my purchase.
Thanks berbles. I'm just so very tired. Everything is a struggle. I need to get into a counselor, but even the prospect of finding one sounds exhausting. I feel so sad today that my life isn't what I thought it was going to be. I just want to feel happy again, it's been so long since I was truly happy that I feel like I've forgotten how to feel that way. (My DD does make me happy, but that's about all I've got.)
Just remember that this is small moment in time. You will get through it. It would be weird if you WEREN'T overwhelmed. One foot in front of the other, until this is just a distant memory.
And, bonus, you will be SO MUCH stronger on the other side. I'm so proud of you for facing this very tough situation head-on. Power though. Make it out to the other side, where you can rejoice.

Vitamixes are self cleaning! That swayed me. You will love it!
My nose piercing bump is starting to shrink, finally! I put aspirin paste on it before bed last night, after an extra-long sea salt water soak. It seems to have helped!
So how exactly do you soak your nose?
I have to imagine it would be difficult to breathe.
