Has anyone developed eczema as adult? Over the last 4 months I’ve developed 2 kinds! 1 is the typical dry/scaly patches and the other are these weird little fluid bumps on my hands & feet.
I developed eczema about 3 years ago and it was a nightmare at first. I never had it previously in my life, and then one day I had a reaction to something and was cover in head to waist hives. After the hives subsided I developed eczema patches on various areas. My doctor prescribed a lot of topicals that had minimal results before I finally got my insurance to approve Dupixant. That cleared up about 90% of my patches. I have had it well controlled for the last year with the Dupixant and a topical med for the 3 small patches I still have flares on. I have done a lot of allergy testing and haven't been able to find out anything I am allergic to except dust mites.
I asked my kids pediatrician (she comes to the house and its a an old school chatty appointment) and she said it might have been triggered from grief. When I finally get an appointment with my doctor I'll ask about the meds !

I feel bad limiting the # of activities the kids want to do but the fees really add up! We told each kid they can do scouts, 1 sport and 1 creative activity (music/theater/art type things). Plus the time commitment is a lot .
Tell me your kids are about to start school w/ telling me your kids are about to start school Big kids upgraded from the bentgo kids this year and Ds3 is going to school every day 🙌
Y’all I know my house looks like some kids moved in right after college so please be nice. I haven’t had it in me to decorate this year but I’m starting to do it now .
babsbunnymrsukyankee DH and I have separate beds (in the same room) and it looks weird but we sleep so much better!
Do you have twins? I don’t think I could fit more than twins if we did that in our room. But DH sleeps on the couch 95% of the time because he tosses and turns a lot and is always worried about waking me.
Yes we do. It means a lot have a big empty space in the middle but 🤷🏻♀️I haven’t decorated at all but here’s what it looks like
It’s really just a grocery store. If you need groceries, go. Otherwise you’ll be sorely disappointed.
We went when we visited FL. I'll give them credit that it was super clean and easy to move around, but nothing special. If you're a beer drinker you're probably in the area where you can get Yuengling. I honestly can't tell if it's good beer, or if I just like it because it's hard to get in my area.
ETA: Yuengling was "really good beer" in college. People would bring a lot back when they'd visit home. I had a colleague bring me some a few years ago when they visited home. We also had it in FL and it was good...but just 2 steps above Budwiser.
We can get Yuengling in Dallas now and I still haven’t tried it.
If I get a craving for pie or a sub I’ll go but I think I’ll skip it. For some reason I thought it was like TJs where there are store specific items that are really good.
I’ve always been very close to my uncle (DS2 is named after him & he walked me down the aisle) and we have had a great time at his house this week. It’s hard when both of your parents are dead and when I realized that I do still have a parent figure in my life it was such a weight off my shoulders. I finally got to introduce DS3 to him this week which was incredible. instead of “uncle x” the kids have been calling him “papa x” and it makes me so happy they have another grandparent in their lives.
Also, Florida is so hot & humid I feel like I’m in a sauna.
I reached out to my doctor about getting on some anxiety/depression medication. I hope it is an easy process because reaching out just about took it all out of me.
HUGE first step ❤️ really fricking proud of you for doing this scary part.
I watch it and my mom is in it! I have purposefully not watched a video/listened to her voice since she died 18 months ago. My sister didn’t know I hadn’t. watched/listened to anything of mom so I can’t really be mad but it’s a big gut punch .
Please give me all the help with stopping breastfeeding. I went down to nursing mornings and MOTN, but now, I’m done. My last morning feed was yesterday, and today my left breast is engorged and super painful.
I’ve been using ice and hand expressing as needed, but anything else? Time is the answer, isn’t it?
Insurance is such BS sometimes. Ds3 is behind in speech and fine motor skills so the pedi recommended either therapy for both OR extra school time. It is cheaper to send him to almost full time care (mon-fri 9am-3pm) then for 2 therapies a week!
For those following the 3yo who DGAF about potty training - it’s still going poorly and we are just going to put him in the older 2s/young 3s class for now 😂
Oh--can I join? I think DS2 will need to sit out of Saturday school this year because he prefers sitting in his own filth.
It is so frustrating! I’m trying not to be mad since we do have an option but I would like to be one step closer to only wiping my own ass.

I only bought fresh stuff and barely any meat (just a pack of hot dogs and some lunch meat) but still spent $180 😢 I don’t like having chopped/pulled/ground meat for most meat meals but I think we will need to so I can use cheaper cuts of meat.
This is our last weekend with my niece and nephew in town ☹️ I really love having them around so much. We’re going to see my big kid’s play (she’s been at theater camp these past 2 weeks) tomorrow. She’s a little bummed that she didn’t get the part she wanted, but is excited for us to see it.
I have to spend part of this weekend figuring out some kind of outdoor art project for my troop. We’re finishing up some galaxy t-shirts inspired by the James Webb telescope photos, but I don’t feel like that’s going to eat up all of our meeting time. My co-leaders think I’m artsy fartsy so I always get stuck with the art badges.
I hate doing art! Hate it!!! I’m much more the “appreciate art because it is amazing and not. my. lane.” person.
What about sun prints? You can get the paper on Amazon, the girls could gather things outside to put on the paper at the beginning and by the time your done with the other things the prints will be done.
Speaking of tattoos I’m getting a copy of a heart my mom wrote on a note on my inner wrist . She used to draw one on my wrist (& I do with my kids) when I was nervous about something or going away and would miss her. We called it the hug button ❤️
