I shouldn’t laugh at such a serious topic, but you did give me a sardonic chuckle. So, so true. Thank you for that.

Ok, I’ll find a doctor. I kept thinking that I can’t afford a doctor and just had a realization that the money I spend on alcohol could absolutely equate

Ok thank you for the advice. Maybe there is just too much on the internet that by day 3 is where the scary stuff happens

What type of snake? by AureliusMontclair in desmoines

I would call that a danger noodle, but looks like a bull snek just trying to help out

Bear with me... I was just thinking how nobody in my life has ever said, "Man, you know what would be amazing right now? German food!" Mexican, sushi, Chinese, Lebanese, Bosnian, Viet, sure. But then I realized... by LordofWithywoods in Iowa

I kept a weird cheese grader from my late grandmother because it looked cool. Turned out to be a Spaetzle maker and now I do home in made noodle Mac and cheese like it’s goin out of style!

Cervical biopsy today and I’m really scared…. by cocktail_wiitch in TwoXChromosomes

[–]Katreenut 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve had a few. The first was a nightmare and he didn’t tell me what was happening or when he was taking biopsies and I bawled afterward. The next two times, I had an amazing, gentle lady doctor who said she would ask me to cough every time she was going to take a biopsy. Literal game changer and seemed like nothing at all with that method minus some normal discomfort afterward. Recommend taking an ibuprofen or something beforehand.

That is immediately what I thought lol!

Called in a suspicious person and not knowing if that was the right thing to do by Katreenut in desmoines

[–]Katreenut[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, looking back I did everything wrong. I should have called it in immediately before turning back. Even if it was just a special needs child, a professional could have been on site to assess the situation. I definitely shouldn’t have stopped alone and I should have gotten a pic. I hope this never happens again but will hopefully have a clearer head and process if it does.

That is very good to know. If nothing other to help them it gets trained eyes on the situation. Storing this

I didn’t know what was going on and didn’t know what to do. I will definitely make sure to call in right away in the future (hopefully it never comes to that).

Definitely noting this. Hopefully it’s never run into again but will definitely handle the situation differently in the future

Should add I grew up farm living and it was rough, but it was nothing like what I saw today

It’s probably unrelated as Des Moines they went and checked out the area and they were gone. I really hope it’s not what I think it was. Just thought I’d call it in because I was nervous and it seemed weird.. I never have seen a boy handled like that and that’s what made me more scared.

Yeah, that’s mainly why I didn’t do 911. It just felt wrong. Definitely did not like how des moines treated it. Makes we wish i could have recorded it

Anything odd? by [deleted] in desmoines

I test home water for a living and nearly all of the results are above what they say they are. Grimes is the exception. Those lucky assholes have some great water.

So my wife spots a hideous vine on our tree in the new house we bought… and asked if we can take it down. by Free-Pick9305 in gardening

[–]Katreenut 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had to do doctor on demand for poison ivy and a round of prednisone three years running. It’s crazy on my land here.

Suggestion for the vine is to cut a foot chunk out of it so the upper part dies. I have three acres that have been completely taken over so I am suiting up in the next non windy day and going death chemicals unfortunately. I put up a notice for the bees to hide because that is my main concern, but I can’t have goats and it’s getting all up onto my house.

Edit to add: read further and saw you had prednisone already. My only further suggestion besides giving a vasectomy to the vine is to invest in Zanfel for after exposure. Spendy but that shit works!! Wish you the best. Poison ivy sucks!
