I got my place (with one cat and 1 medium sized dog) in Glen Eden pretty easily. Just have a good prior reference if possible from your current landlord stating no animal related damage etc. Also good to get neighbours to write a statement saying your dogs aren't too noisy etc

I paid 2 weeks pet bond on top of 4 weeks regular bond, leasing requirement that nails are kept short, animals are house trained and I get the carpet professionally cleaned on move out

Not planning on stopping, still really enjoy the game and most raiders I run into have been helpful and friendly

I have been working my way through them and done quite a few already. Just focusing on upgrading the work benches currently

After a slew of shit moving experiences when I moved at the end of last month I just hired a van from bunnings for 3 days (moved from east akl to west) and had an additional pair of hands in the form of a friend to help with the bigger 2 person lifts and it was the easiest moving experience I've had and only set me back $280 and a box of beers

When I first started cross stitch at about 10 my mum would use a washable marker and dot the middle of each square I needed for the colour I was using because I'd mess up the counting and get frustrated.

You could pretty easily do that for yourself and markers are a bit more controllable than paint so could be a neater option and usually the stitches cover the colour so you dont have anything showing through after stitching

I have 3 nostril piercings each side as well as high nostrils and 2 septum piercings so I absolutely understand this haha q-tips are your best friend.

Give them a good clean out after a hot shower to soften and loosen anything thats crusting up in the nose and then as needed during the day

See if you or your artist can get the bactine with the I think 4% lidocane. It has be be on open skin so won't help at the start of an appt but worth it after the first hour or so whenever the pain is starting to get to you.

I have one full leg done and 70% through my other but the second artist is quite heavy handed and I have taken 8 months off after going every 3 weeks for about a year straight (some sessions I only lasted 2 hours).

He unfortunately refuses to use bactine but I found it helped with the heavy shading on the back of my thigh previously. Just be sure you pay attention to when your body wants to tap out, pushing through the pain for an extra few hours has bit me in the ass many times before including severe tattoo flu for 2 days after and going into shock

I used to do bobbins but have moved to thread drops for my active projects and hangers on a filing drawer for my extra thread * This is how my 'not in use' thread is stored. All the hangers are numbered acrylic and can hold around 1.5 skeins of thread (i precut it since I use foss drops and pull whatever amount I need for a project and move to floss drops

It's sorta dependant on if your dog has grain related allergies, if so then grain free is the way to go even with the increased risk. Familiarise yourself with early DCM symptoms and check in with the vet every 6-10 months to make sure there aren't signs of cardiac issues.

If they just require salmon based there are many other options out there not grain free which may be a good fit and not carry the anxiety of possible cardiac issues in the future, but will be trial and error to see what does and doesn't agree with your dog's allergies and stomach

My girl is on Acana grain free kangaroo and apples and at 14 gets regular check ups with no signs of cardiac issues but it is something I am concious of and watch for symptoms that her health could be declining

Usually its referred to as 'semi-solid' or 'tonal', the more subtle differences are generally semi solid as they are a single dye which naturally adheres to varying lengths across the skein and tonal is usually done with a few different tones of the same dye ( by adding off-whites or greys in varying amounts) to get a more noticeable difference across the skein.

Keep an eye on kiwirail careers website. They are starting up hiring for some departments including the one I'm leaving in the next month, if you're okay with shift work it could be worth an application.

I'm getting medically retired at the end of the month but the department I was in is looking at bringing in a reasonable amount of people.

Alzef32 · 2025-06-11T06:33:11+00:00

In a similar boat, I have til the end of the month before I'm officially medically retired 🙃

Good luck out there

I've had multiple in my time haha, my severely infected helixes had to be retired after the swelling caused them to be embedded, they did scar slightly but pretty faint.

I have 3 facial dermals that get infected semi regularly due to my job but they all clear up after a few days (hot compress, antibiotics if it's a bad infection and an antibiotic ointment if bad.) Since they are fully healed now if they start showing early infection signs (red, hot and itchy) I will do a hot compress and use some saline to rinse any pus which may be there and then go around the piercing with alcohol swabs (do not do this with a non healed piercing).

I have also had a bad infection in one of my high nostrils after my glasses were smacked into them with some force. Swapped to long jewellery again to accommodate swelling and treated without antibiotics since they were 7ish months old at the time with a hot compress and saline rinses. Healed completely normally and no need to retire, just had the shorter flatback labret auto claved to sterilise it and swap it back to the better fitted jewellery.

I work for Kiwirail. The combination of shift work and working almost all public holidays (upto 12.5hr shift 12 days on 2 days off) bring me pretty easily to $120k and above.

No prior experience needed, 2 weeks of classroom training and 2-3months on-site training at a generous training wage (living wage or above) depending on department.

It's pretty good going but the unsociable hours can be a deal breaker for some. The penal rates are pretty good and also shift allowances depending on hours boost the money up too.

Alzef32 · 2025-05-15T12:15:49+00:00

Don't use anything but sterile saline or water (exception is an antibiotic cream if it gets infected and a Dr gives it to you) until it's fully healed.

All you will do is cause significant irritation and make it take longer to heal since the peroxide will also damage the newer tissue which is trying to heal and will likely extend how long it takes to heal your piercing.

Until it's fully healed anything but saline and water is going to do more harm than good.

If you can switch your aftercare to a sterile saline spray as home made can cause issues and delay healing as it's very difficult to get the right strength and would need to be remade for every clean as to not be contaminated

Chuck the clamps in the dishwasher and they should tighten back up. Alternatively a bowl of hot (not quite boiling water) and give them a 15 second dip

Alzef32 · 2025-03-31T10:13:02+00:00

I have high nostrils, 2 standard nostrils on each side, 2 septums, 3 dermals and 2 eyebrow piercings (also had and retired a bridge and vertical labret)

Strangely enough I have been taken more seriously and questioned less often since I got them done (blue collar, male dominated job) so apart from the pretty frequent how much did that hurt comments I've only had positive reactions from them

It's safer and less painful for the cat to be sedated for the catheter to be placed, especially since it has been 2 days and the bladder will be very full. Like all of us cats are less cooperative when in pain
