I’ve been on a medical LOA since last year and tomorrow I go back to work and I keep thinking about how almost all my coworkers I knew are gone and processes have changed. Also that if I do something wrong I might injure myself again and be right back where I was a year ago (I have been cleared for full job duties by my doctor).

Feels insignificant compared to a lot of posts in here who actually have real problems but I was at kids party yesterday and then get the "sorry we found lice" message haha So treating the family for lice today just in case hooray

comb for adults and as many eggs as you can get. THEN desiccate the shit out of any missed eggs with a hair dryer on low heat (doesn't need to be hot) for like 30 mins plus when hair is dry. repeat a few days.

learning about the hair dryer was such a relief the one time i dealt with this. much easier than torturing my kids endlessly with the comb.

Hair dryer! Have never heard that tip thank you! Thankfully no lice found after treatment and a comb through

That’s not insignificant, lice are stressful. My niece got it a couple years ago we all had to do the treatment, wash the clothes and sheets in hot water, the whole shebang.
