That is interesting! Glad you found this out about your vitamin. I learned yesterday that there is a new drug for hot flashes- I don't think it has been approved in Canada yet though. It's called Fezolinetant (Veozah) and I've read that for many women, it's a game-changer. When I needed a...

I used to take Estroven, over the counter supplement here in the US. It worked really well to greatly reduce my hot flashes. If I recall, the formula contained soy isoflavones, black cohosh and a couple other ingredients. It was in a yellow and white box (there are a few different formulas on...

I have been tempted to buy things from Wayfair many times, but it always bothered me that I read only positive reviews on their site. That raised a red flag in my mind. Glad I listened to my gut. Sorry this happened to you. Very disappointing. Am glad you are spreading the word and you...

It may very well be a food allergy/intolerance. One of my cats had IBD and the classic line of Fancy Feast (wet), which has no soy or grain, worked wonders for him. He ate only that.

Several years ago I read an article about Americans staying in these types of places in Mexico and it stuck in my mind as an option. I can't remember where I read about this, though my usual reading sites are NPR and NY Times. I do remember the experiences were positive, and it made me go...

Would you elaborate on your experience? I’m intrigued about the “scary” part. Scary, yet fun and awesome … don’t want to highjack this thread, but please tell us more!

Thank you - just watched the first one, DH and I greatly enjoyed it and will watch #2 tonight.

I am so sorry. Have read your posts over the years and it was obvious that caring for her was a big part of your life. My condolences. We here are thinking of you.

Thanks for bringing this documentary to our attention, steelyman. I watched it last night and learned so much! Greatly enjoyed it, it was worth the rental on Amazon. I am from NJ and my mom remembers hearing about these restaurants in NYC. This was the first time I heard of them though I...

Such a beautiful voice. Loved their music, the soundtrack to my growing-up years. RIP.

One of my favorite museums is the Mauritshuis in The Hague. Not only do I love the art there, the building is beautiful, inside and out. I felt like I was in someone's home. And it's not terribly huge and overwhelming like a lot of famous museums. Van Gogh Museum in Amsterdam is my very...

Bought my first pair of Progressives from Costco a few months ago. Very pleased with them and haven’t had any issues.

I hold off on buying their cookies until Christmas ... then I buy a large tray of Costco's holiday cookies and scarf them down! I tried Costco's chocolate chip cookies once and wasn't enthused about them. I'll have to try their other flavors.

Yes, her hair will grow back.

Echoing above references to Covid - my sister had Covid in May and her hair is now falling out at an alarming rate.

Teacher Terry, I'm really sorry about how this turned out. I know how much you were looking forward to this trip. A gutting disappointment. You're not the first to be soured on international travel during this time. I don't have the stomach for it.

Pellice, I understand your disappointment. I'm sorry this happened to you, it's terrible.

This looks great. Are you able to find it in the store or do you order online? Thanks.

Almonds used to bother my stomach too. Not anymore though, which makes me very happy. I wonder what it is about some nuts that cause stomach issues.

This made me smile because the very first Waffle House opened in a town just minutes away from where I live; it's now a museum, but it's closed. Weirdly, I've always wanted to visit. Anyway, will put this movie on my list, thanks.

Oooh yes! Loved this one, as I enjoy quirky movies w/odd characters. Guess it's why Northern Exposure is my favorite series. I have a hard time finding shows that fit the bill for me nowadays.

DH and I paid an attorney $1,500 for our wills and POA forms two years ago, here in Atlanta area.

We used to have a futon - it was not very comfortable to sit on for those w/bad backs BUT it was the most wonderful thing to sleep on. More comfortable than my bed. Perhaps you could find a really good quality futon? We have an air bed and it gets thumbs up from our guests.

Sorry to hear - hope your wife gets through it quickly. Glad you are doing okay now. The thought of being reinfected over and over ... ugh. But it's easy to see that likelihood is our collective new reality. DH and I still live like hermits because we enjoy this kind of life. Still ... I...
