Drainage layer

Hey guys, so we didn’t put a correct drainage layer when making our enclosure and now water accumulates at the bottom in the rocks and I am looking for the best method to fix the issue without having to tear it apart because I have nowhere to put the frogs if I did that.

I mist 20 seconds every 12 hours.

The dirt gets extremely wet even with leaf litter and plant coverage, but the frogs are very active and eat well. There are tunnel areas of the enclosure that are dry for them to be and when it’s not too hot I will turn on heat lamps to help dry it a little bit.

Life after Lockup

I’m watching it for the first time and I’m not even 10 minutes in and have said “oh my god 🙄” at least three times already. The amount of acting and bullshit already is INSANE. Do people actually believe this nonsense????

Concert in Oct

So I’m really wanting to take my kids with me to go see SWS in October, but I’ve never been to one of their concerts. Does anyone know if it would be safe/appropriate to bring a 6 year old and an 11 year old?

Overfed?

So he was hungry prior to starting eating two hours ago (based on abdomen size) and I’m just wondering… will he stop? His abdomen is so full and he just keeps going! This is his first wax worm so I’m sure he’s loving the snack, but like is this safe?

Therapy

Does anyone have any recommendations on counseling agencies for people with BPD, OCD, and PTSD? I’m having a hard time finding anyone experienced enough that takes UHC community plan. I’m so exhausted with being bounced around between providers who swear they can help me then 8 months in they admit they don’t know how to help because they lied about their experience with my disorders.

How do you keep your spiders alive?

Idk what’s going on but my spiders won’t stay alive past three months… I make sure they are warms, I mist daily, I feed when they are hungry. The enclosures are bioactive. What the heck am I doing wrong….

Miranda’s rescue

This is Jamie

I know this is a long shot, but I am posting it everywhere just in case.

Unfortunately I made the terrible mistake of surrendering Jamie to Miranda’s rescue and I am searching for any information on if my boy made it out.

He is a Belgian Malinois mix

Around 9 months at the time of surrender

Surrendered •August 9,2020•

Told he was adopted •October 25,2020•

Was told in person when I visited the shelter in •January 2021• he was sent to another rescue.

I just want to know the truth. No matter how hard that truth may be.

Mammogram and ultrasound

I’m on day 3 of cold turkey

So I’ve been drinking at least 500-800mg a day for 20 years and I have to quit. I typically have coffee in the morning, caffeinated tea all day and maybe an energy drink in the afternoon. I unfortunately am not someone who can taper off of anything. It’s either I do or I don’t so I have to do this cold turkey. My head is absolutely killing me and I am so nauseous. Tylenol isn’t helping and I am drinking only water and caffeine free tea (to help combat the nausea and “trick” myself into thinking I’m not giving anything up). Do you guys have any suggestions?

Is my hair actually straight like I thought or is it wavy?

So for context I stopped using heat to straighten my hair a few years ago and since then my hair is super frizzy and looks damaged. Upon finding this sub I have been reading people say that maybe it’s just texture and not real damage? So I washed and conditioned my hair and scrunched it up a little with the conditioner in and then lightly dried it with a towel (pat dry) and this is what it looks like before brushing. This is how I usually looks and then looks like the last picture once dried. Am I wrong in thinking I have straight hair?

Lump and swollen lymph nodes

So I found a lump in my right breast about 2 months ago and over the past two weeks I have had three lymph nodes in my armpit that have swelled. I have a mammogram and an ultrasound for the mass in a month and my genetic testing just came back negative. Has this happened to anyone else and it just be benign? I don’t know how to explain it and I’m hoping I’m wrong… but I just have a feeling it’s cancerous. Idk if that makes sense or if I’m just freaking myself out, but every woman on my maternal side has gotten breast cancer or some type of cancer and passed from it. I’m honestly surprised my tests were negative.

A7X and GC tour

I just wanted to come on here and say my 5 year olds favorite band is Sevenfold and his favorite song is nightmare. We are taking him to the July 25th show in MO. We have never been to an A7X concert and it’s his first concert (and mine!). What should we expect?

So my husband rescues bettas from pet stores that are dying/sick and rehabilitates them and this is the first time we have ever seen a HellBoy Betta let alone a betta that wasn’t in terrible condition. I just wanted to share how pretty he was. He is our 17th Betta 😅
