Do you recommend any particular cream or ointment? The sheet the doc gave her said aquaphor or eucerin. I use aquaphor for my lips but wouldn't it be kinda gooey in large quantities? Also, the sheet said to wear a tee shirt under her bra for treatment. Does that sound familiar? Little personal...

Hi Hisgirl, welcome. As Grace&Carolinesmom said its the club that no one wants to join. I hope you find peace in knowing that we are a supportive bunch always here to lend an ear. I was diagnosed with TNBC in November 2021, and tested positive for BRCA1. After a lumpectomy and 16 round of...

Checking in as it's been a while. Coming up on 1 year since my last chemo treatment, celebrating quietly to myself as I don't want family and friends to know I still think about it. I know that sounds odd, but it's just how I've been this whole time. The "I've got this" on the outside but kinda...

Been reading along even though I haven't been posting. It's nice to see people making progress and other chipping away. It is encouraging for sure. Here's my update: 1. Pay off car note- haven't been paying too much extra and current balance sits at $4690. Windshield is still cracked, i don't...

@luvmarypoppins, stay strong during this time of uncertainty. Trust in yourself and your medical team. Sending you positive thoughts and prayers.

@pblack - the nerve of porch pirates! Seriously, with a camera on them and everything. Just wow. Hopefully no issues with the next one.

I forgot to add to my update that our taxes were done a few weeks back. Took the accountant almost a month to get them done, I should just try to do them myself going forward. Anyway, our refund was way less than what we usually get. I know, I know, the goal isn't to get a refund, but we have...

I didn't do a check in at the beginning of March, 1. Pay off car note- haven't been paying extra, in fact I paid even a few dollars less this month. I usually put $500 but only did the minimum of $485 this month- current balance $6150. Windshield is still cracked, idk know I am going to do...

@luvmaarypoppins- I hope you were able to rest some and speak with your pcp. Sending you and your family good vibes.

I have USAA also, mine says for repairs the deductible is waived but for replacement I would have to pay the deductible. I'm in TX.

You are so right. I probably should have had the chip filled a while ago 😕

1. Pay off car note- starting balance $7565- paid $600, current balance $7089. Oh my goodness this vehicle 😫. Cold Texas last week turned a chip in my windshield into a full on crack from one side to the next. While still drive able because it doesn't obstruct the view it still wasn't on my...

Doing my check in a few days early as I don't anticipate any real changes in the next few days, so here goes: 1. Pay off car note- starting balance $7565- paid $600, current balance $7089. 2. Rebuild savings account- goal is to add $5000. No change. 3. Refrain from booking "big" trips- This...

Hello all! Joining back in for 2023. I didn't post in 2022, but I read along all year. It was nice to read the success stories and quietly support those chipping away. My goals for 2023 are few, but I think manageable. I may add some as the year ticks on. Here we go: 1. Pay off car note- I...

My family moved to Texas about 3 years ago. We live between San Antonio and Austin so we do lots of exploring around these parts. We also like to take road trips and explore other parts of Texas. Depending on what you mean by active would help figure out where to go- does that mean out doorsy...

These! I used to love these as a kid in the early 80s.

Belated Merry Christmas to all here. Hope those that are dealing with covid and colds, and appointment scheduling issues are feeling some relief. I had, what will hopefully be the last surgery for a long time, on Dec 9th. Prophylactic tubes and ovaries, robotic assist. It went well and I...

We did Paradise Beach the past July (2022). We didn't book ahead of time and just got a taxi at the pier. My kids are 7 and 5 and they both had a great time in the pool and on the water inflatables. We borrowed lifejackets for the inflatables, but I wished I had brought our own. I didn't like...

Post office issues here myself. Ordered a shirt off etsy last week, seller brought it to the post office 10/20. All weekend I checked for an update and it kept reading shipment received pending acceptance. Confirmed with the seller they sent it. Wasn't accepted by USPS until 10/24. Still in...

Wow I had no idea they maxed out at 4! I've been trying for 6 since my 60 days and not that I figured something would come up but now it really explains why!
