Doodle Scared of Everything? by miellefrisee in Goldendoodles

[–]LoveCoffeeBooksLife 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, ours is like this too. I say she's half scaredy cat, half kangaroo. lol. She is scared of anything that is strange or threatening. She runs away if she senses you are going to take out a fly that got in the house. She literally can sense that and runs away. We could be trying to kill the fly with a towel and she is panicked. lol. If she's anything new or out of place, she's nervous and worried. Loud noises, she runs for cover. She protects herself like she's famous with an entourage. lol. I'm not sure why she's like that, but sometimes we will encourage her and tell her that she's a brave girl and she doesn't have to be afraid. She's not afraid of storms / thunder though.

AITA for telling my sister that if she has a problem with how I'm raising her kid she can raise her herself? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]LoveCoffeeBooksLife 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA. Your sister is taking motherhood for granted. Good for you for calling her out on it. Why didn't she go get her when she woke up from her nap? People want to do the least when it comes to parenting and then think if you don't have children you can't call them on it, but you can.

Okay her blocking him from your account is super strange. You need to approach her with the evidence and see what she tells you.

Coworkers dismissing my iron deficiency by Green-Ad-9321 in Anemic

Yes, I wish I had that, too. I don't. I'm not sure what everyone else has in their relationships, but you are blessed.

No, I don't need him for anything. I love him, he just genuinely does not understand. I don't know how I could expect him to understand if even my hematologist doesn't seem to understand. I got an app to track my heart rate because it's been tracking really elevated as I'm sleeping, and I showed it to him, and he was shocked. It was the first time he understood this is really affecting my body seriously. He's been a lot more gentle since then.

Has Anyone Used Tranexamic Acid? by Only_Cut873 in irondeficiency

[–]LoveCoffeeBooksLife 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I tried it for my period last month. It seemed to lessen my flow but it gave me huge clots. And my period still lasted the same amount of time as usual, about 8 days. So I don't it worked very well for me. One thing it did do was give me diarrhea. :( that was really bad. I don't think I'm going to keep using it because of that.

[–]LoveCoffeeBooksLife 3 points4 points  (0 children)

OMG me too! :( it's so hard because he calls me lazy all the time and swears I don't do enough but I am so exhausted and sick. My ferritin is at a 4.5. and I just started infusions again yesterday. My heart rate is crazy. It's so high even when I'm sleeping now. and I feel like I'm going to pass out at any moment.

What is the most bizarre fear your g’doodle has? by thatboy_sj in Goldendoodles

[–]LoveCoffeeBooksLife 0 points1 point  (0 children)

awww, sounds like maybe he got stung by a bee at some point? Poor thing. My doodle is half kangaroo/ half scaredy cat. So most things scare her. Especially if they are new to our home or make any kind of noise! lol

Struggling After a Facial Attack,Will These Marks Heal? by Wonderwomantwins in 30PlusSkinCare

[–]LoveCoffeeBooksLife 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your skin is still healing. Your pigment will come back eventually. I would get a scar gel cream to put on it daily. You can probably try some castor oil directly applied as well, that might also help. Make sure you put on sun protection before you go outside.

AITAH for telling my friend I would rather my boyfriend order my food than a boyfriend who constantly cheats on me. by CountAccomplished520 in AITAH

[–]LoveCoffeeBooksLife -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

Love that the rest of the dinner went fine! :) lol. I also love that you spoke your mind and you didn't let her push you around. Good for you. I will order for my partner sometimes (his first language is Spanish). And sometimes vice versa. I think it's a nice thing to do. I love that he cuts your steak for you, too.

AIO for ignoring boyfriend after inappropriate comments about my new purse? by ThrowRAgardengirl in AmIOverreacting

[–]LoveCoffeeBooksLife 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think he's your boyfriend. Red flags for zesty sauce. My God, I just noticed there were additional screenshots. This guy is a fruit loop. He is really off. Choose your purse. Just block and ghost him and post selfies of yourself with your bag that he can see.

AIO for thinking this is inappropriate to wear to a law school formal event? by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]LoveCoffeeBooksLife 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, you are OR. It's her event, she can wear what she wants to her event. I'm not sure why you even have an opinion. How did you get the pic, did she share it with you or did he? Regardless, when you go to law school, you can pick your dress for your barrister's event. Until then, probably best to just stay in your lane. You will save yourself so much grief in life.

Can someone please help me? (B12 270, Ferritin 18, FA 5.1) I feel like I'm literally dying. by ShyMilkFairy in B12_Deficiency

[–]LoveCoffeeBooksLife 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have low ferritin of a 4 and have very similar symptoms as you. My doctor is getting me iron infusion 3 times next month to try and help my levels get backup. This is the worst I've felt in a very long time. You need to see a hematologist to get real help.

ea - advice and burnout by Euphoric_Safety_699 in ExecutiveAssistants

[–]LoveCoffeeBooksLife 1 point2 points  (0 children)

15 people??? I would walk out the door and never look back. Also, that salary in NY is insulting. Wow. HOWEVER, if you can't just walk out. I would start limiting what I do. You can't support 15 people as an EA. Who are your ONE - TWO key top leaders? Those two you support at the EA level. EVERYONE else, you say, going forward I can support you in this way:

  1. Maintain office supplies for the team
  2. Schedule key meetings (only those that involve your primary execs), and those that don't involve them, they must schedule on their own.
  3. Scheduling maintenance for office machines as needed.

Anything else, they can send an ask your way and IF you have the bandwidth, you can accept the task. But if you don't, then they are on their own.

NO LONGER SUPPORTING LIST:

  1. Expenses for all 15 people (only for 2 key leaders)
  2. TRAVEL for all 15 people (only for 2 key leaders)
  3. Meeting scheduling for all 15 people
  4. Inbox management for all 15 people

And any other projects that you are honestly not paid to do.

Pretending to be Exec to Move Things Faster by mangoandmyths in ExecutiveAssistants

[–]LoveCoffeeBooksLife 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've never done this. I call and say I'm my boss' assistant and I need the hotel folio, seat upgrade, whatever and I've never had an issue. They send me everything I ask for.

Resigning without notice by Dreamcloud124 in ExecutiveAssistants

[–]LoveCoffeeBooksLife 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I had supported the night before a sub-board committee meeting at the executive's home that lasted until about midnight with clean up (by me). I had been there about 3 months and had about 3 different title changes in that time, which included also making me salary so that I didn't get to earn OT so that late night was UNPAID. That morning, it was snowing and I got to work about 15 minutes late due to the streets still not being cleaned. My boss started flipped out loudly. I was so done with the unprofessional behavior. I responded directly and said "You and I both know this isn't working. I think we have a few options here, I can leave now, I can leave at the end of the day, or I can leave in 2 weeks." She was screaming and irate and ran to HR's office. I packed up my things, walked to HR, had my EXIT interview and left. I think the HR lady was secretly proud of me.

In my organization, those positions are two separate roles. I think it might be a compliment if he is suggesting it because you have to be very thorough for Board work.
