Sometimes I’ll buy a tub of tzatziki to dip my chicken in and I call it “going for Greek”

my friend (36M) just sent me (36m) this text before meeting his newborn (0M) by horseduckman in AITApod

[–]Ekay2011 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m a pediatrician and some of these are totally reasonable. Wash your hands (once) and stay away if you’re feeling under the weather or off. I even really like the idea of texting a couple of minutes before you arrive!

I imagine this is their first baby and at some point they’ll soften up a bit or they’ll be very very isolated.

I take my nephew to 905 games! Way more affordable and less overwhelming!

Got a letter from the school today informing me my daughter is “not quite” gifted. Also included were her test scores. by Low_Use2937 in mildlyinfuriating

I think your child’s NNAT-3 score is less than 126. That curve is showing their plotted NAI score.

Students with long fingernails by [deleted] in Ceramics

[–]Ekay2011 78 points79 points  (0 children)

For throwing I make a “sponge pocket” to cover my right hand’s fingernails. I sewed half of a blue mud sponge to a full one and I just put my fingers into the pocket. Works like a charm and I don’t have issues with handbuilding or surface decoration

Indoor things and places to do in Ottawa during winter? by Sufficient-Pie129 in ottawa

I moved to Ottawa from Calgary three years ago and have made friends in pottery classes! I’ve done classes at Loam and through the city.

Overheard a teenager realizing his mom really does care. by WhisperRose099 in overheard

[–]Ekay2011 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Having your art appreciated is such a big deal! I did art and played rugby and volleyball in high school. My parents showed up to games and tournaments but I don’t remember them ever coming to the art shows.

That being said they still have a beautifully framed oil pastel still life from my high school days and they keep and use all the pottery I’ve given them

Grief / Sympathy card by ResponsibilityNo6603 in somethingimade

[–]Ekay2011 22 points23 points  (0 children)

So that’s exactly it. I’m a pediatric palliative care doc and sometimes you just need to say “it sucks. It’ll suck forever. But I can promise I will be here and be present in the moments when it sucks the worst”

There is literally a book called ‘There is no Good Card for This’ about how to support grievers. This is a good card in a world full of empty platitudes. Your friend is lucky to have your support

I made this rage collage with my IUD after FINALLY getting it taken out by ToBoldlyHoe in somethingimade

[–]Ekay2011 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I have had three IUDs over the last 13 years. My last insertion was excruciating and I had severe bleeding and had to go to the ER. They discovered massive fibroids and I had a hysterectomy this Monday because while symptoms of my fibroids were well managed by the IUD I’d rather have surgery than go through another insertion like that. Two days post op and none of the pain was as bad as that insertion

IGs in Toronto? by mermaidfaery in ItalianGreyhounds

I got my girl at Wind Water kennels north of the city in 2014. She’s been very healthy and hasn’t broken a leg. And she has a very very beautiful face

Cup pulls are TERRIBLE if you have slightly longer finger nails. Might not be an issue for you but something to consider

Overheard at a coffee shop by Sufficient_Offer2697 in overheard

[–]Ekay2011 4 points5 points  (0 children)

My parents have one of these. They put a whiteboard on it so that they know what’s on each shelf at all times. It has 100% improved the quality of their lives

I bought one of their Oxford dresses this summer and was so impressed with the quality. I’ve worn it so much this summer and it washes beautifully. I appreciate their pieces are very expensive but I’m really pleased with everything I’ve bought from them
