I am not allergic to my chins, and I've had them for 10 years. However, my now husband is. I couldn't ever have predicted that I'd marry a man with allergies. Unfortunately, his asthma/allergies have gotten really bad in the past year and he was hospitalized just last month. Although I love...

I get so frustrated by doctors that don't stay current on medical practice. Mirena is perfectly safe for women who haven't had children. The IUDs they used in the 60's and 70's had a large risk of infertility, so they recommended them for use only in women who had children. That is NOT the...

Voted for you - great story!

For me, couches/chairs are less about brand name and more about comfort. What if you find that Lazyboy is too deep for you? Or too soft? You have to go try them out and pick the one that you like best for your needs. I personally find sleeper sofas to be awful. They aren't good at...

Thanks for the offer! My usual feed store is closed on Sun, but I found another one that is open, so I'm on my way right now. I checked, and I do have just enough PANR left for a switch. Thanks for your help!

Thanks. The fat content is also much lower. Unfortunately, I don't have enough food left for a switch no matter what I use. Until I read this thread yesterday, I wasn't even aware Purina had switched formulas. I don't usually let my food get this low, but I was out of town last week and the...

I went to my feed store yesterday, and they swore up and down that the green bag was the replacement for the PANR with the blue bag I used to use. Now I see that sure doesn't look to be the case. The new bag I have is the Purina Rabbit Complete. I don't have more than a day or two left of the...

I need to go out this weekend and get a new bag, as I'm almost out. I guess I'm going to have to buy whatever they have, because I really don't want to switch back to Mazuri.

I haven't read all of the responses, but my brother died suddenly at age 39, 7 years ago. Our family decided to scrap our usual holiday traditions because it was too sad for us to not have him. Instead we spent the holiday helping others. It is a tradition we still do now. It feels SO good...

This is completely inaccurate, and I find it disheartening that a medical professional who works with children is spreading false information. People are more panicked about H1N1 because it is killing perfectly healthy children at a dramatically higher rate than the seasonal flu. The...

Can you wear something like Danskos? My husband is on his feet all day as a nurse, and he went through so many pairs of sneakers. He LOVES his Danskos he has now and they last forever. Totally worth every penny!

Yep, everyone has different things they look for in foods. For me, cats are carnivores, so I run away from foods that are fruit/veggie heavy. The Taste of the Wild one mentioned in this thread is a good example. Two of the top 3 ingredients are vegetables, and it has all sorts of fruits...

Do you have Costco where you are? If so, check out their maintenance. It has really great ingredients (all meat) and is really affordable. I also like the Evo as well, and use that canned food.

I know! I've actually been really lucky with 2 job offers and 4 high-quality interviews in the past 2 months. My field is pretty specialized though, which I think really helps me. This is really great timing though because we just bought our first house together last month, and my husband's...

I'm so excited I just have to share! I've been working my same job for 6 years now in Social Science Program Evaluation (mostly education), and while I like it and work with some amazing people, I'm ready for a change. I was offered a job today at Kaiser Permanente's Center for Health...

How are things going with the kittens?

Except in Oregon :thumbsup:

I'm totally on the same page as you! I really don't care for cats, but my husband is a big cat fan. We adopted one almost a year ago from the shelter I volunteer for, and I love him because he's really a dog in a cat body. He's friendly, always wants to be by us, sleeps on the bed, and loves...

Congraulations! I've been married a year and a half, and I my one piece of advice would be to enjoy the engaged time for awhile and don't think one bit about wedding planning. It can be very stressful, and you should enjoy the fun, engaged time for as long as possible. That said, I totally...

A money guideline would be helpful this year too :)
