+1

well for both so i guess that's +2!

xylimelts can also be found locally at the drugstore. i know for sure that they are at both rite aid and cvs.

Good to know that I don't have to mail order the Xylimelts if I run out. I really like that they now optionally come in bottles, because the foil packs made too much noise and woke up my husband if I replenished them in the middle of the night. The bottle is quiet, he is happier. Xylimelts are one of my top 'desert island' items, I hope they never stop making them. I guess my desert island would also need electricity for my CPAP machine.

Regarding "you might could try": I'm a Hoosier too but I haven't heard that, but I am just a transplant here. I'm near Indianapolis and I don't know whether they say that in this area of Indiana.

1. oh, yeah? didn't know that it came in liquid form. not sure that would work out for me. seems that the liquid would wash away easily if i took a sip of water in the wee hours.

2. HOOSIER! well, not by birth, your not. and thank your stars for that. i kid. but i left in my early 20's and didn't look back. whenever i say or type something that sounds like it belongs in the mouth of some hillbilly, i credit it to indiana.

personally, i grew up in indianapolis. or maybe just outside the city limits. on the west side, out by the airport. back then, the city wasn't much. despite what i just said, i've been back or at least passed through. i was stunned at the amount of traffic on I-465!

Sorry I wasn't clear enough, I didn't mean Xylimelts came in liquid form, it is just that the tablets now come in a bottle. They are the same as the tablets in the foil blister packs. Maybe CVS has had the bottles of tablets for a long time, but they were new to me, I've always bought Xylimelts on Amazon. It is easier to get the tablets out of a bottle quietly in the middle of the night, fussing with the foil blister packs made a noise that woke up my husband. The tablets seem to last about 6 hours for me when stuck to my teeth.

Regarding "you might could try", my husband was born a Hoosier in Bloomington IN and he hasn't heard that, but I will ask some of his relatives who have lived in Indianapolis for 70+ years.

I can relate to your mixed feelings about Indiana. I feel a bit 'first world' to complain about the suburbs of Indianapolis since I've lived in far worse places and relatively speaking, I should be grateful. I'm in Carmel, IN which is a nice town because of great schools, low crime, cheap housing and land, low taxes and cost of living, not crowded, close to Indianapolis. So you can have a big house on a big lot here with great schools at the price of being bored. It is a place of soccer moms, but has some diversity due to lots of doctors and scientists from other countries. This town is a bubble, calm and safe and growing (so more events, more restaurants opening up), but it is far from any ocean or mountains. I am here to be near husband's family, but I would fit in better living somewhere like Manhattan or DC. I don't know if I will retire here, it is a competition between having a big house and leafy green yard versus being in a small apartment/condo in a city ($$) where everything is expensive but you can walk to the subway station and go lots of places easily (Indianapolis = no subway or public transit trains). Unless you are into sports or church activities, here it seems the most excitement people have is going on vacation or weekend trips to somewhere else. I might want to move to Canada anyway depending on what happens in November.
