- Trim the bushes so people can see it's a driveway better; to me, it doesn't even look like a driveway because there's no break in the grass either.
EN: Trim that bush down so people can tell it’s a driveway more, to me it doesnt even look like a driveway because there’s also no break in the grass. - I know exactly who they are, they did this to us, and told them to move it or I'd yank it with a chain; they moved it quickly after their arrogant reaction.
EN: Ik exactly who they are lmao they do it to ours as well told them to move it or I'll yank it with a chain they moved it pretty quickly after a cocky response - Leave a funny note, like: "Sorry your car got scratched. Someone tried to get past your car to leave the driveway and it scraped against something pretty badly. Should polish out with a bit of polish... or not. Have a great day!"
EN: Leave a fun note like: "Sorry about the scrape on your car. Someone was trying to get past your vehicle to get out of the driveway and it scraped pretty hard against something. Should buff out with a bit of polish… or no - This must be really annoying, but you can barely tell it's a driveway in this photo. I know you said they'd do it anyway even if it was cut, but I'd still make it look more like a driveway before towing, etc. If not, they can claim they didn't realize it was a driveway (like I see it).

4. Healthcare options when TBRHSC literally says they can't figure it out???
Original English title:Healthcare options when TBRHSC literally says they cannot figure it out???
Post content summary:Just got home from my third visit with a widespread hives/welts reaction from head to toe. They keep giving me the same cocktail of meds, including steroids, antihistamines, but nothing really works. The doctor said to me "Geez, the allergy meds almost made it worse!" They do the exact same blood tests every time, and every time they tell me it's normal. They said if your face starts swelling, come back in two days. Two days later I'm back with swollen eyes.

Nine or ten years ago I went through something similar. Hives all over my body, and they wouldn't go away, took a long time to fully clear. Was on prescription antihistamines and lots of Benadryl, but no one could fully figure it out. I ended up eliminating as many allergens from my life as possible. Switched to allergen-free detergents and soaps, sent my dog to my sister's for a while, all that. They eventually disappeared, and I started reintroducing things one at a time.
