Is this even a thing?
If so, Can anyone recommend a good YouTube tutorial on how to do this? And is a double ended hook required to do it?

I’ve already given her tons of spoiling. Today I will finish crocheting a blanket for her. I will take her by the house she grew up in (we moved a few years ago). I will encourage her to hang out with her brothers. She is wearing her favorite outfit. We will play outside more later - and I will sing to her.

My soul is leaving my body. This dog has been my air for 14 years. This is my final act of love to her. She will go be a little puppy again.

She will always be the best puppy in the world on the face of the planet in the history of good puppies now and forever (I tell her this all the time)

I will always love you Vivian. Forever.

I have made the impossible decision to let my little puppy girl go. I am struggling badly with the decision. I have a therapist who is on vacation. Meanwhile I could use some help and thought I’d put some feelers out. Has anyone worked locally with a pet grief counselor? I need help with this decision and making peace with it. It hasn’t happened yet.

This one isn’t the one for anything other than kindness please. I am absolutely devastated. Thank you.

I have been on HRT for nearing two years. The nurse I had was great but she’s moved on. The nurse I have now, I just don’t like as much. She doesn’t listen as well as the other one did.
Because of this I’m considering going elsewhere and am lucky enough to have real menopause specialists in my area but don’t take insurance. I am on estrogen patches (.03.75), testosterone (low dose) cream and progesterone gel caps.

Last year we upped my estrogen and I got super bloated so we pulled it back and added testosterone. The T made a HUGE IMPROVEMENT.

Here’s why I’m thinking of going elsewhere: I go and talk about symptoms, they tinker with my meds and THEN do blood. Shouldn’t this be the other way around? The first nurse wanted to wait for bloodwork whereas this one was throwing scripts left and right. These are not free to fill so can we like, see what I actually need?

I also think a different delivery method for the T and the estrogen might be better.

I think I’d just like to understand all this better as I get older. I am super low on energy all the time. My skin has taken a hard hit, though improving through a better skincare routine. But these specialists are SUPER expensive and I have health insurance that pays for this stuff (outside copays).

Maybe I just need to change to a better obgyn in my network. I miss my old one so bad. :-(
