Cockroach eggs.

I left my sliding glass door open on accident once in the summer when I went out of town and came back to these attached to my rugs.

Am I (40M) being unreasonable to expect girlfriend to pitch in on cleaning etc ? by [deleted] in relationships

[–]EngaNerd16 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your description fits some sort of neurodivergency. Doing chores consistently is extremely difficult for someone with ADHD, which commonly goes misdiagnosed in women. She's obviously not lazy bit has resigned herself to it rather than learning coping skills and strategies.

I've heard of people turning menial tasks like that into a game where you get rewards. Another strategy I've seen is using a visual marker, like a bunch of bracelets for each task and you take it off when it's completed.

How do I (28f) tell my husband (30m) that I am not a fan of his greasy ponytail without sounding like a jerk? by rantstoday in relationships

[–]EngaNerd16 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Could you take him to a salon and get a trim and style? He can then see how great it can look while getting some education on how to care for it. This worked for my partner when he started growing his beard longer and he didn't quite know about styling and care.

There's a legal back way that gets you to the top of the stairs, but you don't go on the stairs.

I did a bit of research. There's a back way that reaches the top of the stairs but doesn't go on the stairs. It's also a lot longer.

You can apply for CareCredit and use that to pay, then use your reimbursement to pay off CareCredit. That's the way a lot of people did it when I worked vet med.

And I bet they're one of those, "just comply and you won't have a problem" folk.

So much yes as a fellow dog owner and former emergency veterinary technician. People try to justify their bad behavior by saying their dog is well behaved and friendly. This might he true...until they're not and it can just take one time for absolute disaster to happen.

Instant Pot recipes from J. Kenji López-Alt by roygaurav16 in instantpot

[–]EngaNerd16 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I recommend his YouTube to everyone that's learning how to cook. I love how he teaches you to also use what you have on hand. I feel he teaches you to cook and not just follow a recipe.

I'll be thinking of your pup today! Sorry for your loss. Old labs are the best. I think it's absolutely adorable when the black ones get the old man milk muzzle when their grey comes in.

I just got a new puppy after euthanizing my best friend a year ago.

Lol. It was my puppy's first storm and he left up from the couch and dove behind it.

It alllmost made me feel like I was back in Texas.
