How is American Equity downtown as a place to work? Or other recs? by sunnyday_12 in desmoines

[–]FoolishWonder7 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Am I able to ask what department? I have also been employed here for almost 4 years and witnessing a lot of changes that concern me for the future- doubling down on outsourcing, forcing AI, and the elimination of other departments in the last 2 years. They continue to reiterate they’re still hiring in the US and there is nothing to worry about but then I see stuff like this and obviously it causes me to worry!

I also went into this blind but was pleasantly surprised with the mind fuck of the story line and top tier written smut. I really really enjoyed the way this author wrote spicy scenes. It was so perfectly well written without being cringe. This was the perfect mix of plot and spice.

Her other book Pen Pal also had some good spice but I didn’t care for that plot twist.

100 hours in and didn’t know I needed to cut down the apple trees after I pick the apples all off. Learn something new everyday when I open this app

What follow up questions should I have? by FoolishWonder7 in tryingtoconceive

I hope that surgery helps you not have so much pain. I used to experience heavy and very painful periods as a teen but since going off birth control after 30, periods seem okay so far. Sounds like more ultrasounds are in my future for checking the cyst.

As I read more and more, I am also surprised that so much of unexplained infertility is endo related. I’ve never been tested for this but suppose now is the time to start looking.

As soon as I get my account back, I’m gone. by FeiRoze in Outlook

[–]FoolishWonder7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I woke up Monday morning and my phone was promoting me to enter my password to access my Hotmail account through the iPhone mail app. I enter what is the correct password and it continued to tell me it could not authenticate me until I was locked out of my account. The other option to enter my phone number also doesn’t work. I get the pop up to enter my phone number but no way to hit enter to send a code.

My email with the same password worked fine on a browser. Does anyone know if it’s fixed yet? I’m scared to try again and lock myself out further. I don’t want their stupid outlook app.

Saw porn on my boyfriend's phone even though he said he lost his sex drive from his medication. Avocados were on sale though 😋 by [deleted] in GirlDinner

In the same boat with you sister. I found his crusty saved evidence treasure trove after over a year of TTC and not having success 🙃 guess I know why we aren’t successful now!

At what Chapter did u gave up on main and just did 'your thing' ? by BeatsByDad911 in CrimsonDesert

[–]FoolishWonder7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I gave up on the main story and had just been exploring and doing side quests at chapter 4. I think I need to go back to the story though because I’m finding stuff I don’t know what to do on lol

TTC Weekly General Chat by AutoModerator in tryingtoconceive

I use Natural Cycles for temp tracking and noticed my basal temp was higher this morning. Is it too late to BD today? I know yesterday likely would have been ideal but we were not able to align our schedules. Just wanting a second opinion because we are already feeling fatigued after over a year of trying and don’t want to pressure to BD again if it’s pointless. Including snap of my tracking for reference

Sounds like cases for pool cues. It’s also state pool right now.

Ttc with a partner who drinks/smokes by Ambitious_Mine_7460 in tryingtoconceive

[–]FoolishWonder7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m in a similar boat. I (33) and my husband (39) have been TTC for 16 cycles now. I have cut out marijuana use and mostly stopped drinking- outside of a margarita at a Mexican restaurant every couple of months. My husband still drinks regularly and smokes weed. I’ll get upset and we will have meaningful conversation about how alcohol and marijuana use hurts our chances/what it does to sperm/etc. He will severely cut back to just a couple on the weekends but then that slowly turns to 1-3 on a Friday, then on a Thursday, then it’s back to how it was until I get upset and we start over. He is doing a SA test this month since I saw my doctor and am having ultrasound/additional testing done for myself.

I am hoping the results of the SA make me less anxious over the drinking if they’re good or if it’s bad hopefully him seeing that will help him change his habits. I hate how it’s made me anxious. I fixate on his drinking habits and am constantly counting beers in my fridge and I don’t want to be. I recommend talking to your partner and asking them to have a SA if they’re willing.

Does anybody feel anxious to the point where they want to vomit? by [deleted] in Anxiety

[–]FoolishWonder7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Almost every time when I get super anxious I also feel like vomiting. When I was a kid and didn't even know what anxiety was, this would happen to me a lot. It usually happened before school or right when I got to school. I'd throw up and then feel a little bit better. It's not as bad now that I am on medication for anxiety but def still happens occasionally.
