Should this cactus be so wobbly?

https://imgur.com/jJ05iQg

I hope I can add a video here. The cactus used to stand up straight but now it's tipping over. I wonder if it needs watering but I don't want to overwater

Can you explain the pain you have?

I have mild scoliosis but also moderate spondylolisthesis. The pain I have is mostly a nerve pain that runs down the back of my legs and lower back which spikes horribly on occasion. Other than that just a dull ache in my lower back that isn't so bad. I don't have any muscle pain at all.

I wanted to see what types of pain you guys are having to try to see which problem could be causing mine.

Got a flyer for a seminar at a restaurant where they serve you a steak dinner

Would you go? It's titled Estate and Retirement Planning Simplified. It dos feel a little like a time share presentation though, but my partner is gunning for the free steak. Do you think is it worth the pressure? It does say it is presented by a financial services company so yes I know I will have to sit through a sales talk. Just want to know if anything can be gained, maybe they give you some hints on taxes or something even without paying for their services

Can you get vision insurance on the marketplace? Is it worthwhile?

I hear that for dental it is kind of a wash, where premiums cost about what the 2 cleanings and xrays cost. Is it the same for vision

Which of these is the most useful for skin with dark spots /rosacea and and some bumps from acne? I read you can do niacinamide in the morning and tretanoin at night? Or is that too harsh? Or some other combo?

Can anyone recommend a good dentist? Seems like dental is not included in the health plan

Mostly for basic care. I checked unto the madison hygienist program for low cost cleaning but they're on break now

Two questions

I have read the FAQ.

1.Can your pet get rabies from a bird? Our indoor cat got out ​and tried to catch a bird and fought with it and got scratched up a bit.

  1. Is it possible the incubation period can be a few years? Like if you had an encounter with a stray cat but a few years ago.

What is a typical vision plan?

The reason I ask is that the last plan i had years ago covered an amount for polycarbonate lenses, anti reflective coating, etc. But only at a lenscrafers or optometrist, so the actual glasses still were about $700. Im reading that online places are much cheaper even without insurance and i wonder what people's experiences are.

TOH, yes or no

Saw this in the forest area. I don't see a mother tree or anything. Where could it have come from?

Do tax free retirement distributions or 529 distributions count against you?

I am retired and have a college aged kid. I took mostly Roth distributions rather than traditional IRA so that the taxable amount would be lower. But now I'm reading that Roth will count as income even though it doesn't show on your tax return. Is that true?

I am also worried that using 529 money will show up as income too. Where can I find out if it does or not?

Neighbor let dog poo in my yard. She did clean it up but watching it happen in real time was mildly infuriating.

Will bleach damage tile or grout?

I thought this was a better sub to ask than the cleaning one, but we got a new remodel done which includes tile wall and a bathtub. The edge of the tub allows water to collect along the wall edge where the new grout is. After a few months it is getting some mold or discoloration, whatever that may be. I used a bleach cleaner but I'm worried repeated use may damage the grout.

We did try to wipe up the water after every shower but it's been so humid lately and it came back again.

Letter from corporate reimbursement/subrogation from BCBS

This letter says, your service may have been a result of an accident or injury. Katch needs to obtain detailed information to determine whether another party is responsible.

Is this important? Do I really have to call them? Why didn't they call me in the first place, or just give me a form to fill out?

Young tree is tipping

I planted an oak sapling about 4 years ago and it's now about 5' high, with the trunk about 1/2" in diameter. The last two years as it grew it started leaning to one side, and the new branches tend to grow more on that side.

I started tying it to a stake to keep it straight but now I worry it's preventing the tree from getting stronger. Is staking really the solution? How many years can you keep the stakes for?
