    I'd say!!! Wow. Go you!!! I want to do more treks. I respect all chainsaws. Despite being careful my dad and I have had some close calls. It's that issue that no matter the safety features when you get surprised it's just instinct to grip harder. I loath it when the saw jumps at me. *shivers*...

    Wowza! See that's why I hate sawing big trees! I always think it's gonna grab and take a body part out. I prefer someone else to fell the tree, saw it up and I'll do the rest. *shivers* I hope you're leg feels okay now.

    Ah, the sad truth of too many jobs. However. I'm working as a librarian right now and so far I love everyone! No worries! I know how it can be. I work 9 hour shifts so I feel so tired at the end of the day and I'm really trying to cram in all the stuff I need to do before! There are so many...

    It does help for more powerful tree branches, but the real attraction is longer rides. :X3: Ye haw! (Sorry I just couldn't think of a tree thing for that. Besides a tire swing ride and that just seemed off. Holy bookworms you guys are cracking me up!!! :ROFL: :ROFL:)

    Yikes. The California fire's smoke gets stuck here where I'm at. We had the worst pollution in the world on Friday and I can still see it. I'd had to be right in it.

    Sorry I dropped off the face of the earth everyone. I got so distracted by life. Long story short my dad ended up getting sicker and we found out it wasn't just his MSA/Parkinson's disease. He had cancer. Pretty bad cancer. Multiple myeloma. No one could believe how fast it hit and that it was...

    Neon Genesis Evangelion is one I need to rewatch. It's been ages. Ah, I'm starting to feel my age. Full Metal Alchemist still holds a warm place in my heart since I watched that first as it released, Brotherhood is magic. Guess my favorites are Slayers, Samurai Champloo, Fruits Basket (both...

    Is It Safe to Take Ashwagandha Long-Term? Can It Make Tinnitus Worse?

    Yeah. Though now I've got heartbeat tinnitus, but the crazier noises have eased up. I'm sure that will ease up too over time. Let us know how Ashwagandha works for you if you decide to take it.

    So as mentioned above I've been vying for a librarian position in my local library!

    Is It Safe to Take Ashwagandha Long-Term? Can It Make Tinnitus Worse?

    My tinnitus has eased up on certain noises and sounds, but I don't think it's the Ashwagandha. It has helped with the anxiety though and stress. I think my tinnitus finally easing up is due to the passage of time.

    Yes I am an anime fan, though I'm not as up to date as I used to be. I like the sound of Wotakoi. These kind of slice of life anime are always so fun!

    Ah! Thanks for thinking of me. When I get excess eggs, I make an egg bake. It's a simple quiche basically. You're ambitious though! That sounds so yummy. I have tons of eggs right now as I got 3 new hens!!! Egg bake time!

    @Jcb, good to hear from you again! Sorry to hear it's not going good though. :huganimation: @Labyrinthine, I don't know why he was worried. And apparently I shouldn't have listened.

    Tinnitus Much Worse During My Period?

    I feel you. That's what mine did. Except I had it louder in my left and then almost none in my right. Then one night a few hours into sleeping boom. It could just be a flare up. Though your period could be amping your emotions up. Go get some support and just try to wait it out. I know it...

    @Labyrinthine Oh! Sorry for such a late reply! Glad things are better and you can go outside now!! :rockingbanana: And able to enjoy music! :cool: Oh, I feel you on the inactivity.

    It's funny. Before tinnitus I protected my ears while working with power tools, and now I really do. But you're right I don't notice much of a change with my tinnitus. I do notice when I'm hitting metal on metal tools that "shifts" my ears a bit. It's so weird. Or my air nailer in closed...

    I know MRIs make a lot of people on here nervous. So I thought I'd share I had one. It was my neck so I was really in it and while it sounded weird. And my tinnitus did weird things to the noises. It didn't even cause a spike. I wonder if it's because my tinnitus was not sound induced? Anywho...

    Oh! @Elmer B Fuddled, on January 12th my first batch of chickens hatched. One died, two made it and the other egg never hatched. I think (pray) they are hens. Silkies are hard to sex. One is smooth feathered, and the other is definitely silkie. They both act like hens. (I have a test to see if...

    Never thought of the cast getting tinnitus, but in that line of work they could have already had it. The stunt guys anyway. I really need a rewatch!! Of the whole franchise. Bummer! Is it colored lenses that help?

    Chit Chat and All That...

    No my mind is too... un-mindfulness right now. If that makes sense. I've been practicing mindfulness and I realized how much I had unconsciously used it before tinnitus. And now I've basically lost all that.

    It's the intent and they're usually like that when first starting out. Fun!!! I tried all compost soil this year that I made and it worked out so good for me. The foam plugs seem to tick my ears off most of the time. For the real power tools I use muffs. I have a feeling it all has something...

    Maybe if you know she has tinnitus there's no need for an explanation? Or most assume it's just for ear protection. Cool they gave them to her though.

    Chit Chat and All That...

    I hope she's feeling better. And I agree. Heart stuff is scary and I wouldn't just rely on medication. Pretty much everyone on my mom's side of the family has heart issues. Medication never works for long and usually makes it worse.

    I normally go during the day for the cheap prices and less people. Usually I'm the only one in there and I just ask the person when I get my ticket to turn the volume down. They do. But I am and never was a huge movie theater goer. Only for ones I really had to see on the big screen.
