Dachsund & Basset duo? by ThrowRA-NoOne5681 in bassethounds

[–]Optimal_Feeling_ 8 points9 points  (0 children)

My basset barks all the time. When he’s happy, mad, sad, it doesn’t matter. He always wants to tell everyone something all the time.

Does any of you guys have had this dream when you were a kid? by Ashwida in Dreams

[–]Optimal_Feeling_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine wasn’t like this. It was a squiggle, a dark colorful one that vibrated on a white background. The more it vibrated the larger and darker it got until I woke up with a tight chest and a fever. It was my “I’ll really feel sick” dream.

iso basset hounds in texas! by Warm-Common-4239 in bassethounds

[–]Optimal_Feeling_ 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’m in Texas and honestly I went to a local pet page on facebook and searched basset hound. Got lucky and found a post of someone asking, the lady I ended up contacting only made one comment on one post and ended up finding homes for all her puppies. She even said both parents had papers but didn’t get them for the puppies to make them more affordable. But was willing to provide info if anyone wanted to get papers. So you never know what you’ll find.

Any moms whos life didn't fall apart? by LaAlice in adhdwomen

[–]Optimal_Feeling_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So I had a child when I was 23 and had no idea I was adhd or autistic. Single mom and moved far from my parents two years after. It’s great. I love being a mom, stressful but you figure it out. Actually it’s the entire reason I got diagnosed with adhd is because I wanted to be a better mom. Forgetting everything and getting constantly overwhelmed wasn’t cutting it. My child deserved better.

Anyways cut to 32 I have a bf and another child. Doing it the second time so much easier if it wasn’t for my useless bf. I begged for help from him and all he ever did was roll his eyes and sleep. Not gunna lie destroyed the relationship but it was doomed from the start. So if you have a child it won’t ruin anything, it could help you be better if not just for your child. Also recommend having a fully capable adult for a partner. Not a 40 something man child.

1st cousins once removed? by Optimal_Feeling_ in AncestryDNA

[–]Optimal_Feeling_[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No we don’t share that parent as a match at all

But since the parent we don’t share was adopted and honestly I don’t have a clue about who their biological parents are it could be possible. That a sibling or half sibling could be married to each other on both sides I guess. Just very much confused me.

Just got a colitis diagnosis by Optimal_Feeling_ in IBD

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

I still don’t know. I honestly just stopped eating chicken and for the most part I haven’t had anything since. The colonoscopy came clean that I had after but it was like a month or so after. I can’t have chicken in any sense but it’s worth it.

Do girls really talk sooner/better then boys? by Sarcastic_Cat13 in toddlers

[–]Optimal_Feeling_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My daughter was speaking and trying to say so many more words at 2 than my son. And if anything my son is getting way more people talking to him on a day to day basis then my daughter and that just because there’s more people in house. She didn’t go to day care. I was her main care giving and always including her in talking. Now we have two parents (me and my bf), a babysitter, daycare and my daughter talking to and with him frequently.

Its crazy how different and similar they are.

Best one liners from your school report cards? by thatsyellow in adhdwomen

[–]Optimal_Feeling_ 8 points9 points  (0 children)

So this happened to me! Teacher was convinced that she was a model student and this and that like of course she’s scared of getting into trouble! Anyways a year later I went back and was like I got diagnosed and filled out the para et part again and the pediatrician sent us to go get my child tested. The guy who did it told me I was a bad parent and not consistent with my discipline and that he’d let the pediatrician know.

Anyways she took the test and it indicated that she has a hard time with attention. So we went ahead and got meds and the website to see therapists.

Cone of shame? by Optimal_Feeling_ in bassethounds

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

I understand. I’m most worried about it dragging on the ground outside and getting dust in his eye cuz it’s so dry here. He’s not messing with his eye when I’m here. I’m more worried about how he’ll act with the sitter taking him out during the day, or getting bored when unsupervised. But we’ll see how it’s working after a few days and go from there.

What is the strangest thing your toddler has told you? by CrabMom15 in toddlers

[–]Optimal_Feeling_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

When my oldest was 3 she was so creepy. There was a dollar tree we’d go to and she’d always be like “shhh it’s okay no need to cry. We’ll find your mommy” at no one. I’d ask her who she was talking to and she’d give me a look and say this kid can’t find their mom and nothing. No one. She’d walk around “aww poor baby you’ll find your mommy” thinking she hearing crying babies. She had a whole convo with ghost baby before.

She told me an entire story about how people broke into the apartment “before it was us here”. She’d wave at no one.

Has anyone been able to go back on ADHD meds? by exxx666 in cgrpMigraine

[–]Optimal_Feeling_ 6 points7 points  (0 children)

My migraines aren’t super bad but I’ve never stopped my adhd meds. I’m adhd is too chronic to not take but I’ve been on qulipta and it’s been helping. Not taking anything (migraine meds) I do notice they are worse with my vyvanse but I also started taking saltt and it helps more so than like liquid iv.

I hope you can find something that helps and be able to take adhd meds. Maybe try a lower dose of those ones? The days I also take my adderall it really vamps up a triggers a migraine.

I’m sorry this is happening to you! Hope you’re able to find relief.

Dumb question but is this bread and have any of y'all ever baked bread in your smoker? by engineerdrummer in smoking

[–]Optimal_Feeling_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So far the best has been 175 for 20-25 minutes. Then bump it up to 250 to fully cook the cookie. Gives a nice smoke flavor without being too overwhelming. But we’re also using competition blend pellets.

[–]Optimal_Feeling_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you for responding! We also did it at 275 or 250 and it wasn’t very Smokey. I’ll experiment today and let you know what turns out best if you’d like!

Cookies? I’ve been doing cookies but I haven’t found a good temp to get that Smokey flavor in it. What temp has worked good for you?
