There are a variety of gift options for the bathroom involving cotton. Try purchasing a nice bath towel or wash cloth for your loved one. Add a monogram to the items to differentiate them from your other towels as something special. Accessorize your existing bathroom items with cotton! Make a cozy for your soap dispenser or toothbrush holder with cute designs or both of your initials. Many bed and bath retailers will allow for monograms to be customized and ordered to your choosing. Buy a set of matching robes to celebrate your second anniversary, or buy a few monogrammed pillows to mark the occasion. Much like the bathroom, the bedroom lends itself well to a variety of cotton gifts. Spice up your bed with a cotton canopy! Canopies allow for greater intimacy and privacy in the bedroom. Just make sure your bed can support one. Other ideas for gifts for the bedroom include a matching pair of cotton slippers, or a new bedding set. Blankets and other similar types of throws allow for great personalization. Try ordering a blanket emblazoned with photos from your wedding! Think about the things your partner loves and investigate whether there are cottons versions available. A new cotton tapestry set for the kitchen is a great idea for the person who loves to host parties, whereas a cotton hammock is great for the person who enjoy relaxation or reading. Try sewing your own cotton items in secret leading up to the anniversary! Give them something cozy to wear, such as a pair of socks or a scarf. Make a bouquet of flowers out of cotton and leave them somewhere your loved one will find them. Create a collage dedicated to your relationship made out of cotton. For example, create a felt poster featuring cotton badges of all of the big moments you shared with your significant other. Hang them on the wall, or add it to your scrap or photo book. Cuff links, brooches, and even jewelry can be created from cotton. Use your imagination! DIY websites such as Etsy can provide a range of gift ideas involving cotton that you may not have previously considered. Calico is seen as one of the modern alternatives to cotton when it comes to the second year wedding anniversary. Many of the same cotton items that can be purchased as gifts can also be purchased in calico. Calico also refers to the repeating design patterns featuring printed flowers. In the case of the anniversary gift, the calico in question refers to the fabric (though you can certainly purchase a calico or cotton gift with calico designs). Note that while calico tends to be cheaper than pure cotton, it also tends to be somewhat coarser, making it more ideal for bags or other items that need to be durable.

Summary: Pick up something for the bathroom. Give your loved one a bedroom gift. Think outside the box. Exchange calico gifts (optional).

Pet stores will carry a powder mix that contains all of the nutrients that crested geckos need. Mix this with two parts water and put it in a dish inside the terrarium. Provide your gecko as much as it wants to eat three times a week. While the powdered food will keep your crestie nourished, it will love a few treats as well. You can give it bits of fruit (apricots or peaches are good choices). Dusted gut loaded crickets are another snack your crestie will love and can be found at a pet store. You can also dust the crickets with calcium powder yourself before feeding them to your gecko. Give your gecko crickets or fruit three times a week if you want to supplement its regular diet, or once a week if you just want to give it a treat. Crickets should be more of a treat to your Cresties. In the wild, Cresties will eat crickets but they eat fruit too. You should give them food specifically for Crested Geckos at your local pet store. Be aware that some Cresties will NOT go to the bottom just for food. It's best if you get them a Repti-Ledge. A Repti-Ledge is a food dish that has suction cups on the back. Attach it higher up so you're Crestie doesn't have to go to the bottom just for food. Most Cresties prefer this. A shallow dish of water should be placed in the bottom of your crested gecko's terrarium. Keep it constantly full. Don't be concerned if your crestie also uses this dish as a potty, but make sure to clean his dish daily.

Summary: Feed your gecko a balanced diet. Give your crestie some treats. Provide your gecko with plentiful water.

Your skin should react within 15-20 minutes of your doctor administering a skin prick or allergy injection test. Your doctor will have you wait in their office so they can review the results of the test. Allergy skin tests are more accurate when they are left on for at least 15 minutes and no longer than 40 minutes. If you received a patch test, it may take at least 48 hours for any allergic reactions to appear. You may need to return to your doctor's office to get the results of the test. Wheals will appear as raised bumps that are swollen or red, much like mosquito bites. They may itch or feel irritated. If you have wheals on any areas where an allergen was placed on your skin, you likely had an allergic reaction to the substance. If you are allergic to multiple substances, you may have multiple wheals. Wheals that are smaller than 3 millimetres (0.12in) in diameter may not be a sign of an allergic reaction. Flares are patches of redness that appear due to an allergic reaction. You may notice flares in the areas where the allergy skin test was administered. If you have flares and wheals in the same area, this usually means you are allergic to the substance. The presence of flares and no wheals may mean your skin is irritated by the substance, but you are not allergic to it.

Summary: Check for wheals and flares 15-20 minutes after you get the allergy skin test. Look for wheals that are 3 millimetres (0.12in) in diameter or bigger. Check for flares that are bright red.

Going back to school is a great way to get that brain working again and more education has obvious benefits. You don't even need to get a whole degree. Your employer may be willing to help you finance classes that further your job skills, or you can just take a single class in a subject that interests you. If you just don't have the money or time, there are also a number of free classes available online. Some are even from top universities, like Harvard. Try Coursera, Khan Academy, or even just Ted Talks to get the university experience, without the price. You may even be eligible to take a free course at a local college or university. Some colleges and universities offer free courses for mature learners. With your brain, much like your muscles, it's kind of a "use it or lose it" situation. The longer you go without using information and skills, the rustier they get. Frequently use basic skills, like doing math, in order to keep those skills fresh and ready to use. Try using skills that you have not used in a while, such as woodworking, knitting, sewing, or doing home repairs. Learning a new skill is also a great way to give your brain a workout. Creative skills especially, like music, dance, and visual art, will exercise different parts of your brain and all have incredible benefits. Whether you're building robots or a new bench for your hallway, using your brain to figure out how to make something (especially from scratch with no instructions) is a great workout. Get some basic building skills and then get your brain limber with some practical creativity. Try doing a do-it-yourself project to learn new skills and make something in the process.
Summary: Go back to school. Take free classes. Use skills you have already gained frequently. Pick up a new hobby. Build things.
