I noticed a long time ago that I seem to be allergic to everything made by L’Oréal. I've no idea what the common ingredient is, but whatever it is the entire brand name is contaminated with it.
They don't understand that word either.
Better than here. We don't have trains. Or a public transit system. Food though (restaurants), we have in plenty.
That sounds horrifying. I hope they'll come through it all right.
A much older friend of mine told me that her husband will lose his legs one day because of ongoing issues with themI'm not exactly sure what he has but it sounds like a circulation problem in his legs which causes frequent infections and pain. I guess the husband was told by the doctor this week about eventually losing his legs. I can't imagine what my friend and her husband may be going through. She said they're both upset but are ok with the news if it means no more infections and pain.to the two of them. My friend is a RN so I'm sure she will be able to care for her husband when that time comes. They have two adult sons whom I'm sure will help out.
The LitterRobot does empty the litter box every time it is used into a standard plastic bag underneath which you discard when it's full. I have had one for over 10 years and it has never jammed. As far as bathing a cat, not yet.
That doesn't seem selfish at all to me. Hopefully, if Emma is developing asthma it will only be mild. My RB kitty Milo developed asthma after we moved to an apartment with new but cheap carpet. Fortunately, he only had a mild case that only caused trouble a few times a year. He would take a round of prednisone and clavimox and be fine within a few days. Here's hoping Emma doesn't have asthma but if she does, vibes coming your way that it is only a mild form.
As for needing to get away to recharge - that makes perfect sense to me. I have done that more times than I can remember. In fact, introverts by definition recharge and get their energy from within while extroverts are energized by other people.
I have another zooniverse project - Recognizing Animal Faces. I'm looking at one cute animal face after the next and marking the eyes, nose and lips. The researchers are working in artificial intelligence and training computers to understand the structure of animal faces. The project write-up says their project will have an impact on "a number of fields including animal health and welfare, species identification and animal-robot interaction." I have been trying to figure out what animal-robot interaction entails. Looking forward to the day robots empty cat boxes and bathe cats....
That's so sad. However, I've come to see that people end up dealing with a lost limb much better than you might except, especially when the alternative is so much worse. A few years ago my uncle was out on his tractor and hit a large rock in the road. He was thrown from the tractor underneath a running combine. He lost one of his legs above the knee, but considering the circumstances, he was happy to be alive.

Yes, being alive is most important
See, that's the thing that's confusing me about this; as long as I pay something every month (it doesn't have to be a lot), I'm not getting charged interest on the hospital bill. (I checked.) I would be charged interest on the credit card, and most credit cards (at least the ones that apply with my "no credit" rating) have a monthly fee. A fee which, may I reiterate, I'm not sure I can afford. (Like I said, it's all I can do pull out the twenty--and even then I usually end up spending it before the end of the week.)
I'm trying really hard to keep my bill from going to collections. It's depressing to think of how little I've managed to dent it, but RB said I'm looking at it wrong: he says that instead of looking at how far I have to go on paying the bill, I should look at how much I've paid. (And I'm keeping all my receipts.)
I have a checking account--sort of. I'm sharing it with AWM--it was primarily her account. I used to have a checking account (same bank), but they started at new policy where if you don't have at least two hundred dollars in your account at one time during a month they charged five dollars--and I didn't, so I closed the account. Would a shared account work?
