Lol “essentially”. I’m punny.

Oooh okay. Yeah I’m no help there- I use an un scented bar soap on the stinky or dirty bits, and a washcloth. Lol.

I too was assuming wash of some sort but was thinking oh but what if it’s not it could be lube in which case I say HELL NO

It’s orange scented body wash. It’s a better list than most body washes but I don’t know what you react to. I think citrus oils cause photosensitivity with some people

I really like Dr Bronner’s bar soap for body wash, I use the unscented baby soap one, but if you are looking for something more scented there are a bunch of options. I think it’s pretty clean as far as soaps go.

I use this also. I’m allergic to many many things but not this soap.

My skin doesn’t really like Dr Bronners but it does like Dove bar soap for body wash. I get the sensitive skin version.

Ditto. I am allergic to many things, but not Bronners, or some of the hippy bar soaps like unscented Kiss My Face.

How do I go about finding a lawyer/financial planner/accountant/something that we don’t really need at the moment? I want there to be a known someone who has the picture of our situation available for husband in the case of my death. Sadly, thinking about this as we head back to school with no masks and etc., but he’d be lost in the details and would likely lose some accounts and lose money to taxes that he didn’t have to.

Kiss My Face bar soap is one of the very few available made without some form of palm oil, too.

I didn’t know that, and that’s awesome!

I think that you look for a local recommendation, and call and ask the office about setting it up. There might be an initial consult fee or something, but then you’re set up for years

Hm. Okay, might know one family we could ask for a recommendation.

Followup: think the thing we need may be an estate planner or lawyer. Don’t need someone to handle the money. Just someone to tell Husband where it is if I croak.

Any reason why this can’t be something you set up yourself? My mom and I share a document that has all the logins and websites…etc for my parents’s bills and finances and whatnot. If something were to happen to her, I can access the doc and pay the bills and whatnot.

I’ve got that, but I’m seeing his level of frustration with computer systems that don’t work right and bureaucratic systems in general rise whenever he’s stressed. And he has no clue how to manage taxes, which will be an issue as the bulk of retirement accounts are in my name. Realistically, in the face of a blow like losing me, he’s going to need more help than a document can give.

My new place has slider windows, and I just learned that window units exist for such purposes: https://www.lowes.com/pd/Koldfront-8000-BTU-115V-Casement-Air-Conditioner-with-Dehumidifier-and-Remote-Control-Black/5002040419
This model seems excellent and energy efficient. Does anyone have any experience with casement window units? Anything to know?

If taxes are a big concern, I would look at an accountant or financial advisor rather than an estate lawyer. Or find an estate lawyer with a CPA.
