Rodan and Fields is ProActiv, right?
When my friend was doing Arbonne, I felt like the products were good, but I'm not buying department store cosmetics/skin care anyway, so wasn't going to start spending that kind of money just to buy it from a friend.
I just learned that gaslighting is related to carbon monoxide poisoning. Or that gaslights produce carbon monoxide and I assume that has something to do with the term.
I think it's just that the husband in the movie was turning the lights up and down? Yeah: [link] If you haven't seen the movie, do! It's great.
R&F is decent stuff, but it's not better than what you can buy at the drugstore. Olay is just as good. I hate MLM -- I almost got suckered into one, when I was young and trusted people.
Yeah, the term gaslighting comes from the title of the movie--verbing a noun kind of thing--"He's Gaslight-ing me!" referring to the husband in the movie trying to drive his wife crazy by manipulating her percieved reality.
The microwave died a while ago, but I think it was before I went to New Orleans, and then we were busy with other stuff, blah blah, so we didn't get it replaced until last week.
Now the fridge is dying. I do not want to shop for more appliances.
That's unfortunate timing. Get better, fridge, soldier on for Dana!
Fracture in my other lower molar, so getting a crown on that before it breaks, too. And replacing the crown next to it because it is problematic and might as well do it all at once. Will I get back to the office today? Time will tell.
Been meaning to see Gaslight for forever, but I didn't know the details of the husband's plot. I need a lot more leisure time so I can catch up on my movies (and reading and tv)
Zen, I'm glad you weren't being thrown under the bus.
Dana, I'm sorry. Is it just me, or do appliances not last as long as they used to?
Ugh, -t. Thanks for the reminder to call the dentist. I hope the process is pain-free and smooth.
Anytime anything in the house fails, it sets off husband's rant about Things These Days.
Things These Days
Hah. I've heard that one before.
My walls are conspiring to kill anything on them. Last week, my kitchen clock was found face down on the kitchen floor. This week, my Halloween clings won't stick. Plaster and lathe hate me.
My walls are conspiring to kill anything on them.
Run when they start bleeding.
Whatever happened to the god old days days when a refrigerator could withstand an atomic bomb and keep the contents safe and unharmed?
