    What did you buy today?

    I did my part to stimulate the economy by spending a little bit of our government emergency "help us out" check. I bought new skincare products (just replacement bottles of what I already use, because I was starting to run low) and a replacement brush for my face scrubber. Also a perfume...

    Things to do/participate in during self-quarantine

    It's on top of a little cabinet in an out of the way corner of the living room. It doesn't make much noise, the pump that circulates the water over the roots is very quiet. But the grow light panel is very bright and shines 17 hours a day. The whole unit is small, about the size of an inkjet...

    Things to do/participate in during self-quarantine

    My husband and I started an Aerogarden herb garden 17 days ago. We're actually going to be able to prune some of the basil and use it this week. Back left to right: Genovese basil, dill, Thai basil, dill, and Genovese basil. Front left to right: Mint (with sprouting dome still on), chives...

    Type 1 diabetes

    The medical explanation is loss of insulin production following an "insult to the pancreas". I know some autoimmune diseases can cause a type of pancreatitis that permanently damages the pancreas. But I don't think you can just have undiagnosed pancreatitis and get over it. Maybe you can. I...

    Type 1 diabetes

    There's also LADA diabetes, some people call it type 1.5. It's an autoimmune related form of diabetes that presents in adulthood. It starts out looking like type 2, and responds to the same lifestyle changes and medications as type 2, but then progresses to insulin dependence with only small...

    What Are You Happy About Today? Part 3

    The seeds in my Aerogarden are starting to sprout (I'm growing an herb variety), I got my printer working (was a silly problem, we got new internet service and I hadn't used it with the new modem yet), I gave myself my weekly "vial and syringe" injection without any issues for the first time, I...

    What’s your style?

    I like boho clothes, lagenlook (loose, drapey layered linen and cotton garments), and just kind of quirky clothes in general. Lots of loose flowing thin fabrics, handmade, natural materials, batik, embroidery, earthy colors, vintage-y looks, shabby chic. There are some independent designers...

    Caronavirus

    Well, we're under protective isolation at home. Both of us are on immune system suppressing medication and we both have high risk pre-existing conditions. My husband is an essential employee in an essential industry, but he's working from home though, so at least there's that bit of normalcy in...

    Where did my fellow American members go to college/grad school? What about your SO?

    I went to the University of St. Thomas in Houston, Texas. I have a BA in Psychology.

    Caronavirus

    My husband and I are on immunosuppressive drugs for autoimmune diseases. And I'm a diabetic. So we are taking extra precautions. So far no need to self-isolate, but we're definitely limiting outings and crowd exposure.

    What did you buy today?

    Shoes. These Arcopedico ankle boots. I'm just "meh" about the look of the lace but they were ridiculously cheap for new Arcopedicos and happened to be my size. And are the only shoes I can wear when my neuropathy is flaring. If I'm still "meh" when I see them in person I may stain them with...

    Your go to sleepwear

    Cotton bike shorts and my husband's old white tank top undershirts. TBH, if I'm not leaving the house or expecting company, that's all I wear during the day too most of the year.

    Body hair

    I only groom or remove hair above the shoulders. Between genetics, perimenopause, and 20+ years taking Spironolactone, I don't have much in the way of body hair anyway, so what little there is can stay.

    Skirt v Pants

    I prefer dresses and skirts and also tunic length tops with leggings and narrow leg jeans or jeggings. Occasionally funky voluminous lagenlook style harem and bloomer pants. But never actual slacks, palazzo pants, or traditional cut jeans. I don't own any of those styles of pants. Even when I...

    Wedding gown/tuxedo shopping

    I wore a 34W tall, so I definitely had to go with a company that did custom cuts.

    Chicken burgers and waffle fries.

    Wedding gown/tuxedo shopping

    I had worked at a plus size bride, formal, and lingerie boutique so I knew which brands offered custom cuts. (They would have the factory cut and sew a dress to client measurements, not stock size measurements for a reasonable upcharge). And I knew which brands I liked best. So I called around...

    What did you serve at your wedding?

    We had a mid afternoon wedding, so a "cake and punch" reception. I ordered a couple of delicious artisan baker cakes and had coffee, tea, cocoa, sodas, juices, and a fruit platter, cheese and cracker platter, and vegetable tray for those who needed more of a mid-afternoon snack. It was very...

    What did you buy today?

    So, I've had a chance to use my new chair. A Lane Home Furnishings 4501P-19 Power Rocker Recliner. And yep, it's a good big people friendly recliner. It's rated for 500 pounds. I'm just under 400 pounds and I feel very supported and secure in it. It doesn't creak, doesn't wiggle, doesn't shift...
