My Cat Had Gastrointestinal Lymphoma: Saying Goodbye to Adah

By
On June 6, 2026, I lost my cat Adah. I'm still in shock, still crying on and off, and honestly still reaching for her out of habit. She was 8 years old and had been by my side for 7 of them. Writing this is hard, but I know it's something I need to do, because if you're searching for information about feline gastrointestinal lymphoma or trying to figure out what comes next after losing your cat, I want you to know you're not alone. I've been right where you are. Adah wasn't just a cat to me; she was like a daughter. She was the one who helped me survive losing my Maltese dog back in February 2019. I got her at the end of March that same year. She was actually my first cat ever. And somehow, without me even realizing it, she became the center of my world. I had no idea that choosing her would be one of the best decisions of my life or that letting her go would be one of the hardest. ⚡ Key Takeaways 🐱 Feline GI lymphoma is the most common c...

Sensitive Skin? Try This French Pink Clay Mask With Rice Enzyme

By

Note: This was resurrected from Tumblr thanks to Google cache and was originally posted on November 22, 2017.

Powdered masks don’t seem to be nearly as popular as ready-made masks and I often wonder why. I actually prefer powders because I can mix them the way I want and come up with my own creations! For instance, maybe I want to add a little honey one day, aloe vera gel another, a few drops of tea tree oil (or another essential oil) another, and use pure green tea or rose water instead of water another day. The possibilities are practically endless when you think of all the yummy ingredients that you can add when creating your own face mask!

French Pink Clay Mask With Rice Enzyme

This powdered French Pink Clay Mask with Rice Enzyme by Laila London is one of those masks that lets you go wild with your creativity. The mask already features a lot of great, natural ingredients like kaolin, lavender, rose petals, rosehip, calendula, and red clover; so, you really don’t have to add anything additional if you don’t want to. However, the option is there if you choose.

My duty to you: This company was nice enough to send me this product to try out and evaluate for free. However, there’s NO sugar-coating here; I always give my 100% honest opinion - good AND bad!

The least you have to do with this mask is add a liquid, like water, to create a paste that you can apply to your skin. I prefer rose water or tea myself, but you can use just about anything that is healthy. Aloe vera juice would be another great option.

I found that two parts liquid to one part of the powdered mask is the perfect ratio. So, if you use ½ tsp of powder, you need 1 tsp of liquid. Pretty simple.

After that, you apply it (I do this on damp skin after thoroughly cleansing with a face wash). It dries after just 5-10 minutes. When dry, it does harden and feels a little tight but it’s nothing uncomfortable. You will need warm water to loosen it up and rinse. If you are familiar with bentonite clay (aka Indian Healing Clay), you’ll find that this works a lot like it in that it really cleans out your pores like a vacuum!

This mask is aimed at people like myself, with sensitive skin. It’s really gentle and just a quick, easy, and convenient way to exfoliate and detox your skin. From helping with breakouts and eczema to brightening and shrinking pores, this face mask really has a ton of benefits!
 

For the price, you are getting a great deal considering you only need to use a little each time. I assure you that the small jar is going to last a lot longer than expected!

Would I call this my favorite face mask? No, but it’s definitely up there in my top five for the past few years! What is your favorite face mask?

200+ Must-Have Mods for The Sims 2 (Ultimate List)

The Sims 2, while a classic, can feel a bit dated compared to newer games. However, with the right mods and custom content (CC), you can breathe new life into your game and make it even more enjoyable. I've compiled a list of must-have mods and a few CC items, many of which I personally use and love. They add so much variety and personality, and many even fix pesky bugs. So, let's get modding! © A Little Bit Of Me Important Notes:  Some of the graphics and UI enhancement mods are not needed for the 2025 Sims 2 Legacy Collection since this version  is already optimized for modern hardware as detailed here . Clean UI and Starship UI (mentioned below)  already include multiple UI improvements ( e.g., custom loading screens, widescreen CAS, and improved family tree ), so you won't need to install additional mods for those things. The TS2 Starter Pack ( a completely free version of The Sims 2 available on Github )  already comes with numerous graphics and UI optim...

50 Exciting Mods to Enhance Your Sims 3 Experience

Remember the good old days of The Sims 3? That game was a total game-changer when it hit the scene back in 2009 — and it's still one of my favorite games of all time! It took everything we loved about The Sims 2 and cranked it up to eleven. Let's take a quick trip down memory lane and see why The Sims 3 still holds a special place in our hearts, even with The Sims 4 out there. The Sims 3: Why It's Still Awesome Picture this: You're controlling your Sim at home, and suddenly you decide you want to visit the park across town. In The Sims 2, you'd have to sit through a long loading screen. But in The Sims 3? Bam! You just walk or ride right over. No waiting, no fuss. That open-world concept was mind-blowing at the time, and honestly, it's still pretty cool today ( yes, I still play occassionally ). The Sims 3 also lets us get super creative with our Sims' looks. Remember spending hours tweaking every little detail of your Sim's face? And don't even get...

He Flatlined. He Met Jesus. He Came Back. Read This Book.

I've always been fascinated by near-death experience stories. There's something about hearing that someone died, saw something on the other side, and came back to talk about it that I just can't look away from. Are they really seeing Heaven? What does it look like? What does it feel like to be in the presence of God? When I was offered a free copy of 18 Days in Heaven by Gabe Poirot for review, I said yes immediately. Stories like this always pull me in. Little did I know that by the time I sat down to read it, I'd be walking through some grief of my own. I lost my sweet girl Adah to feline GI lymphoma a few weeks after I said yes to the review, and reading a book about someone who visited Heaven and came back hit differently than I expected. Disclosure: I received this item free in exchange for my honest review. All opinions are 100% my own. ⚡ Key Takeaways ✝️ Gabe Poirot was 20 years old when an electric skateboard accident left him flatlined ...
