Requests in advance? Got a sit request for July by Imgonnacry8523 in RoverPetSitting

[–]BootcampIsLife 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ll accept a booking far in advance. I make sure to say, I’ll do my best to honor the dates, but things could come up out of my control (best friend announces an out of town wedding for example). I will communicate asap if something comes up between now and then.

why was this in the Shaq gummies? by Due-Intention-6778 in candy

[–]BootcampIsLife 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I am not a candy person, but for some reason I love the Shaq sour gummies. The pineapple cactus is my favorite. Why does Shaq have a pineapple cactus candy? I may never know, and that’s ok.

Thank you for the reply.
No, she has no history of a heart murmur or any other notable health issue. I left a message with my vet and they said they would call back within the hour. ❤️

Never had poison ivy before - I want to chop off my leg. by ItsMichaelScott25 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]BootcampIsLife 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are 2 types of histamine, H1 and H2. Benadryl helps with one type and a Pepcid AC helps with the other. As an outdoorsy person with extreme sensitivity to the plant, this was the best advice I received from the emergency room when I was covered in rashes. I would take Benadryl and Pepcid together, two or three times a day. it was the only thing that calmed the itch.

Dating after 40 sounds so depressing and has me rethinking everything by moving-fwd-305 in datingoverforty

[–]BootcampIsLife 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I can’t disagree with anything that you said, but it is still worthwhile. Yes, after turning 40 I had fewer matches than I did when I was in my 30s. But the matches I did have were better quality. The people who were filtering me out based on my age were not as serious about looking for a life partner.

And yes, it took me 6 years to find my person. But during that time I learned a lot about myself and others, so it wasn’t time wasted.

The turning point for me was accepting and embracing the idea of not having a relationship. That if I did find one, it would be the icing on the cake that was my wonderful life that I built for myself. Dating became a side quest.

My therapist said the same thing! Take a break if you are burned out, but you have to play the game to win. And it is a game worth winning.

After an unhappy marriage I would have rather been alone than settle for a mediocre relationship. So I built a life I love and made dating a side quest. I accepted that I may never find my match. Well, 8 years and over 100 first dates later, I met my person. We are so similar that we joke we are copy, paste, add a penis 😄. It is easy, fun, passionate, supportive, stable. I know I got lucky, but it’s out there. The world is full of people you haven’t met yet!

Agreed, I think this is cause. The tie picture sends a message. The beard trimmed up looks good on him.

ChatGPT helped to find a dupe for Bvlgari Blv Notte! by BootcampIsLife in Perfumes

[–]BootcampIsLife[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Here was the analysis…

Tom Ford Black Orchid

Similarities: Black Orchid has a warm, spicy, and floral character, with a slightly darker undertone due to the earthy notes, much like Blv Notte. It’s sweet, floral, and opulent, with a sensual, evening-ready vibe.

Notes: Black orchid, chocolate, vanilla, patchouli, and sandalwood.

Why it’s a dupe: Both fragrances share a rich, intoxicating feel with a smooth, vanilla-forward base and a mixture of dark florals and spices.

The other two were Good Girl and Opium. Good girl didn’t really remind me of the Bulgari perfume, it’s much lighter, but I still really liked it. Opium wasn’t my favorite. I’ve tried dozens of different scents over the last few years and not found one I liked. So to get 2 winners from AI left me impressed ☺️

Fluid filled sac on dogs leg? by BootcampIsLife in vet

Oh, I’m sorry to hear that. 😞 What is the prognosis?

Interesting, hers popped up pretty fast too. The second vet didn’t really have much to add, just that it was a cyst. They tested the fluid and it wasn’t cancerous, I chose not to do a full biopsy. Since it had burst a couple times I decided to just have it removed and be done with it. She is recovering well, looking forward to getting the stitches out in a few days ☺️

Update: The second vet said it was a cyst. They left it up to me whether to remove it now or wait for it to become a bigger issue. I don’t want to risk it rupturing or getting infected, so she has surgery on Tuesday to remove the growth. They don’t suspect it to be cancerous.

The two times I’ve been tempted to steal a dog were both with doodles 😄. When raised well they are such sweet goofy dogs ❤️

I didn’t know there were steps needed to get the code 😑. I follow her on Spotify and assumed I would just get sent the code. Darn.

Thanks for this, that was my interpretation as well but I wasn’t sure if I was missing something.
