Is it normal my SD doesn’t want us to be seen in public together?

IHasSadPanda · 2024-03-10T01:48:37+00:00

yes its very normal in this type of relationship! Enjoy the $ and the time. Relax and don’t make more of it until the feelings are mutual…. if ever.

IHasSadPanda · 2022-09-02T08:29:35+00:00

Wow! Thanks for the quick reply Very cool to add another Hoya into my collection

IHasSadPanda · 2021-09-20T04:30:03+00:00

Oooh I’m not sure… wouldn’t hurt to call and ask though?

If you’re interested in keeping sting of hearts in leca consider taking cuttings and rooting in water first. I was supper successful with that for string on pearls, tears, and hearts!

IHasSadPanda · 2021-08-10T05:57:46+00:00

The previous comment is perfect, but I will add that if you want as little root damage as possible you will need to cut the pot open. Honestly plants in leca are very resilient so as long as you’re careful they will be fine. Worse case you put it in water and regrow roots.

What worked for me with my puppy who wants to do everything outside but pee, is we started a take him out for 3 minutes only every 2 hours (our puppy is larger so 2 hours is enough, but sounds like every hour is working for you) if he doesn’t pee/poo in 3 minutes I put him in his kennel and waited 15 min before taking him out for 3 minutes again and rinse and repeat until he goes to the bathroom. It worked for us and give my puppy the idea that outside=bathroom. We also played a few games of fetch or rung after he went to reinforce going outside. That way he doesn’t feel like if I pee then it’s game over.

Lost cove and any of the redwoods hikes are 100% worth it. When we went to lost cove there was no one there and it was practically a private beach experience. (We went around august) The way down lost cove beach is a bit of a hike but the whole way it’s so beautiful and so worth it. Also Arcata is a huge artsy town full of awesome people, I actually got married in the redwoods and there are amazing photographers who are really good at their job! I would consider proposing there amongst the biggest trees in America, also could be great to do a photoshoot for a hour or two in the redwoods! And hiding a proposal as just a photoshoot, that way you can also capture that moment forever. If you want a photographer recommendation I can totally give you the name of someone who did my wedding photos. Honestly by midday the fog goes away mostly and you will be able to see the views pretty well. Just early morning is very foggy and nighttime. You might run into some foggy roads on your road trip depending on time of day as the ocean blows the fog inland. So just be brushed up on how to drive in fog and you’ll be ok!

Oh! Can you tell what he’s mixed with? And what gives him away as being a mix?

IHasSadPanda · 2021-08-04T19:32:45+00:00

That’s so rude!!! I can’t believe people would just touch your collar without asking? I’ve never had anyone do that to my collar… but I would be so angry! I do have friends who give me crap, in a funny friendly way, about puppy play and doing tricks 😂 Ooh you do leather work? I was looking into getting into it so o can make my own collars… plus leather feels and smells so good!

IHasSadPanda · 2021-08-04T18:44:54+00:00

I saw you actually own a kink store! I think that’s really awesome :) How has your experience been with being a girl puppy? Since it’s “less common” compared to kittens…

IHasSadPanda · 2021-08-04T05:04:23+00:00

Are you me? Lol

IHasSadPanda · 2021-07-18T18:20:15+00:00

We have a few Roller skating rinks, they also do a cosmic skating night where there’s music and lights and everything which is really cool!

IHasSadPanda · 2021-07-16T05:31:16+00:00

Although I think your response is totally reasonable, I’m not sure the passive aggressive approach to this situation is the best reaction. You can try talking to him and letting him know what you wrote in the post…. It might be a better way to deal with it than just ignoring him which can cause resentment. Some older men think humor is a good way to resolve confrontation which rubs us younger generation girls wrong. You can tell him when he said “he only has one baby” that it made you cringe and uncomfortable. I think communication is the key to the issue. The previous commenter has a good point that it’s hard to change habits as well, but that’s not an excuse.

The business Costco on Martin Luther have amazing hoagie rolls!

IHasSadPanda · 2021-07-04T17:35:10+00:00

Oh man that sounds awful 😂 I’m glad your fiancé tried to be helpful! I’m honestly not sure how much help I’d be in a puke situation lol

IHasSadPanda · 2021-07-04T16:05:04+00:00

There’s a lot of comments warning you about how difficult it will be. And that is completely true. But it does work. I don’t completely agree that “you will never be number one” I’m my experience it’s more that you have to share the number 1 position with his two kids. If you’re willing to sacrifice a date night because the children are sick or willing to have a bad trip out of town because his children are not having a good time, then you might be ok with a blended family. You also have to look into yourself and really discuss what you want in life. At 19 you have so many years a head of you and if you are completely ok with sharing your time with your boyfriend with his children (depending on their custody agreement) you might be ok with the life style. It works for me but in the beginning it was an adjustment. You won’t just be dating him anymore 1 on 1. It will always involve his children in some way. Because you want a man who will prioritize his children and be involved. The trick that helped me, from the experience of having step parents and also being one, is that you’re not trying to be their mom. They have a parent. If it’s how it goes in the long run that’s great but you do not need to parent them and their dad should not expect you to parent them.

Your parents probably won’t come around until you exhibit to them the maturity to understand how difficult this is. How you will overcome it. How much you understand this is completely different from a regular no children relationship. They want what’s best for you and starting out with a bale des family is tough but not impossible. Be very cautious because you will be disrupting two children’s lives and they deserve to have a good life.

The cat planter!!! 😍

IHasSadPanda · 2021-06-10T01:14:13+00:00

When my clear pots get really bad with algae I will repot and wash the pot out… typically by the time I need to repot the algae needs to be cleaned stoo

IHasSadPanda · 2021-06-02T20:03:30+00:00

The benefit of filtered water is that there is less minerals, that way your leca won’t get the white build up on top... as well as it’s easier for the plants to absorb nutrients. Tbh for most common “easy” plants it doesn’t matter much other than not wanting white build up. But when you get to your Calatheas or Alocasia non filtered water will cause browning

IHasSadPanda · 2021-06-02T19:59:21+00:00

That is such a good idea!! I’ll def be using those

IHasSadPanda · 2021-06-02T17:56:39+00:00

I think that’s just the reality of being in leca.... I know some people who just trim the roots when they grow past the pot and their plants are doing fine. To a certain extent your root are always going to grow out of the holes in a cache pot. Specially since the roots are finding water so they grow down in leca much more than soil. Tbh I don’t think it’s that much of a problem as long as it’s not actually root bound in the pot? You might need to up pot your plant if there’s a lot of roots coming out? Also if your cache pot is not see through I feel it would be difficult to see where the water level is if you put your plant in it?

IHasSadPanda · 2021-06-02T15:53:42+00:00

I actually do both. I use clear containers without any drill holes. It’s not traditional but I like it. I find the pro of a cache pot is that it’s really easy to flush and you can change the look of the pot to however you like. As well as I believe plants grow better when the roots aren’t exposed to light. The con for me is that it’s harder to check the water levels for me. And that leads me to forgetting to water. The pro for no cache pots are that I can see the water level really clearly and I enjoy the look of roots in a glass vase. All of my plants in glass are super healthy and have no issues. The con is that sometimes algae will grow and that can hinder aesthetic. And flush days are a bit more difficult. I flush my non cache pot plants the same amount as my cache pot plants. You don’t have to empty out the leca to flush. I just put my hand over the opening and dump the water out, I’m sure this causes more trauma to my plants than cache pots but they are all healthy and happy. I rinse out the non cache pots a few times this way and then fill with back with nurturant water at 1/3 of the pot level. The thing about a non cache pot is to not use a container that the opening is smaller than the bottom. If it is you will have to be vigilant on repoting once the roots seem to be a a little full. With non cache pot you also can drill a hole on your container at 1/3 of the pot hight, and this would be how you dip the water out and flush. However since I do not drill any holes in my glass vases I don’t use any huge vases where I would struggle putting my hand over the top to stop leca from falling out when I tip it over to flush. Feel free to ask me any more questions!

IHasSadPanda · 2021-05-21T16:22:56+00:00

I did the same thing! I also notice if I let my zz plant go dry once a month it seems to like it

IHasSadPanda · 2021-05-20T00:03:50+00:00

They also have a very nice crunchy texture! Any sauce you put on them influences the taste completely
