How do you guys still afford going out these days

After gas and groceries and driving to my responsibilities I hardly have enough to give my dog a good life and fulfill my hobbies. How are people going out so frequently and spending so much at restaurants still? I’ve become so hardcore about packing food, it’s the only way I can afford smaller pleasantries in life. What are you guys doing for work? Is it credit card debt? Is it family money? I’m not judging, I am genuinely curious.

Edit: If you have money and a superiority complex pretty please go away🙏🏻 peace and love

Unable to create a new pin? Can only add to boards

Hi all

When I try to create a new pin, I’m suddenly only able to pick what board to post it to. How can I fix this?

The most restrained gentleman ever and the most oblivious woman of his dreams

I'm taking becoming a block of marble when she trips onto him. I'm talking averting his eyes but still helping her when the strap of her dress falls over her shoulder or something. I'm talking setting his forehead against hers even tho he wants to kiss her, only to get up and walk away. I'm talking gentleman behavior and never laying a finger on her, and apologizing when he accidentally does. I want a real deal restraint, self control, honor, gentle-natured but fierce character. FMC is not interested in romance and she processes his behavior as indifference/normal. Both of them are not “active in the market;” so they don’t “sleep around.”

I want any physical action, even as innocent as a high five, to be at her request or her doing.

And then I want a BBBBAABBBOOOOOMMMM. OUT OF BODY, ATMOSPHERIC LEVELS of love in action. I need to hear my pulse in my ears, people.

I have a type. Indulge me!! I tried posting this on the romance book sub but it got removed.

(If not obvious enough: I want slow burn)

(Please no booktok slop if it can be helped)

Edit: everyone thank you for the recs 💛 can’t wait to get to reading

Update on Poppy! Post-op spay

Hello all!

Earlier today I posted about my girl Poppy going into surgery and me crying in the parking lot. And in the office when they took her. And in the PetSmart. Anyway.

Poppy did amazing. The same woman that took her away also gave me a call postop and I ran into her on my way out. I pointed and said, “Hey! You’re who I cried to!” She said that there were big dogs in there with her but she was the bravest; Poppy didn’t make a peep, didn’t fuss, and made the whole process easy. While she was in, I picked up a ($43!!!!!) recovery suit which she is wearing now (definitely should’ve just bought a baby onesie lol). On the way home she cried sadly and pathetically and it broke my heart to bits. When we got home she was oddly immediately on her feet with the occasional whine. We both took a nap. I later mixed her kibble & wet food with some warm water—she ate it up so quick, I guess she was starving, poor lass. Now she is asleep on my chest and I’m hoping for a restful night for us both. Tomorrow she’s getting 1 of 2 doses of medicine that the vet gave us.

To any first time dog owner who is also anxious like me, these people know what they’re doing. Don’t be afraid to call and check in and do not be embarrassed or afraid to cry if you feel it coming. I didn’t want to cry, I wanted to be strong, but ultimately this is my baby and I was a wreck. Despite how necessary and good this is for her in the long run, having left her with strangers in a new place with loud noises and me nowhere in sight—I can’t imagine how confused she must’ve been—this will remain one of the hardest things I’ve ever had to do. So if you’re anything like me, pack tissues and water cuz it will be a long day. And if you’re really like me, bring a pillow. You’ll need it for the nap you’ll take in your car.

Poppy is so tough. I forget that she’s 4lbs of steel. It was very much a super long day, but everyone in this morning’s post was so supportive. I feel extremely grateful to all of you 💛 good days to you all and your children (the dog kind) - Poppy and mama

Hello all

Wish us luck! I got so nervous I started crying in front of eeeeeeveryone.. no shame. She’s getting perioperative bloodwork done and getting baby teeth pulled as well.

The room where they keep dogs is so loud and she was so scared, her whole carrier was shaking. I feel so terrible for leaving her. I’ll just stay in my car crying till it’s over probably.

Update: Poppy did amazing. I’ve made a new post about the experience 💛

Hi all

My girl Poppy is being spayed tomorrow and the paperwork for this vet asks if I’d like to add on perioperative bloodwork. It’s expensive. Do you think it’s necessary?

For more context, poppy is almost 7 months old and 4lbs.

Edit: I’ll be doing it

Hellllloo all,

This year I’ll be taking Anat&Pys 1&2 along with studying for the TEAS. I’ve been an A/B student my whole life but after getting my bachelor’s at 20, I’ve taken 2 years off and need some reconditioning in terms of how to study.

My strengths are diagrams and filling in charts. I print out informative papers and have them pasted on my wall for quick recall. I have a whiteboard and all the other cool study stuff. My issue currently is that after studying, when I think back to my diagrams and notes, I can see them foggy in my mind; I can recall a few letters, the color I wrote them in, but eventually never make it out. This happens to me frequently.

I assume this is a matter of repetition or lack thereof. Perhaps I need to do more rounds of studying? I’d guess so? But then, once I introduce a new chapter, boom—the information is foggy again and I can’t recall it.

How do you guys retain the information you study, especially when introducing new chapters and moving on from what you’ve just learned?

I know I can do it, I did it before. Just need some pointers. Thank you!

Hi everyone

Poppy, 6mo, 4lbs, maltipoo

In August I’ll be away for 2 nights/3 days and leaving her with my parents. We all live together as it is, but Pop and I live upstairs and she’s never been a day without me. I was wondering if it hold be appropriate to ask our vet if there’s a bedtime medicine I can give Poppy to ensure she’ll, well, sleep? I just want her and my parents to not have a hard time.

Anybody ever given their dogs something of the sort?

Hey all

I’ve got a head of fine but dense, long hair. My interest in a transplant is to fill up some emptiness at the front of my face, particularly where my bangs are. Does anyone here have experience with keeping the long hair at the transplant site? I don’t mind shaving the donor hair, but I can’t imagine having a shaven bang area and then hair down my back 😂

Thanks

Hi all

I’ve been adding red lentils to my eggs. My batch of 12 meal prepped breakfast sandwiches (they get frozen) used to only have 8g of fiber each and now they have 10g at minimum. I do this by boiling 5oz of red lentils, blending them, and then adding them to my egg mixture (eggs, egg whites, and cottage cheese). Then I cook them on a sheet pan in the oven along with turkey patties and fat-free American cheese. The lentils also add more protein for those who care! I cannot taste it whatsoever on its own, nevermind with cheese and Frank’s. For my next batch I’m gonna add more lentils.

I also simply can’t have a meal without Oikos (Pro, plain) so I have some on the side with the sandwich like a dip. Then I have an apple for more fiber.

I’ve got this down to the T and it brings me joy. Eat your fiber!!

Hello all

I’m hoping to get into a radiography program next year and one of my biggest anxieties is, of course, clinicals. I’m a naturally very shy and reserved person and I can buckle under pressure sometimes. Rest assured though, I am able to carry my weight and remain professional. I’m just a scardy cat. With that said, I am aware that clinicals are like a two-year-long interview, and I am very pleased with this. I thrive in non-personal relations and I love earning my stripes in anything new.

Some of my questions:

- What were your biggest lessons from clinicals?

- If you could go back, what would you do differently?

- What was a normal day for you and what was a bad day for you, and how did you handle it?

- What were some small mistakes you made during clinicals that you think a newbie should try to avoid?

- What are some ways to earn brownie points professionally? (Not bringing snacks, I mean work wise)

- Are there things outside of clinicals you could’ve done to make the experience easier?

- What’s your recommendation to juggling clinicals full time plus 2-3 classes?

Also, silly question, but when people talk about “exams” at clinicals, do they mean going solo on a patient?

I am full of questions. I’d appreciate any response. Thanks in advance!
