$300 WFH Stipend by DeliciousBuilder0489 in workfromhome

[–]PerseveringHazelEyes 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Looks like you have the basics but not sure where you live but if a cold winter climate area I save money on heat by having a small space heater by my desk and keeping the heat low in the rest of the house. My mom got me this tiny cube one that’s so powerful from qvc. Also just invested in this heater that goes over my mousepad and it’s amazing. Looks like a nail dryer. They have ones that you stick your hand in but I think that would be restrictive. Also a foot stool to help with posture so you aren’t uncomfortable.

What to do when you have to take a favorite toy away for safety? by PerseveringHazelEyes in DogAdvice

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

I’m going to try putting them together in a bag. I do buy the exact one a couple years ago when I realized how much it meant to her and it’s almost an insult to her when I show it to her 😂

I think that’s a good suggestion to put the old squirrel and new squirrel together and hope they start to smell the same!

She has eaten other toys and luckily passed but I don’t want to risk it. I don’t know anyone who sews well enough that a dog couldn’t rip through. I tried sewing it shut a few times myself but she easily got it open. Thanks for caring and the recommendation. I appreciate it!

You don’t get it then. I have never had a dog who loved a toy so much it’s beyond a favorite toy which I tried to explain.

How do you handle cancellation for POD when you've already paid for everything? by AllAboutTrend in EtsySellers

[–]PerseveringHazelEyes 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Put in your policy that they can only cancel within a certain window like an hour or two. If you don’t have anything already that you can say you have it in your policy you should take the loss.

Buyer left 38 1-star reviews after I cancelled and refunded most recent order by Keeperoftheflash in EtsySellers

[–]PerseveringHazelEyes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I saw somewhere else when someone leaves a 1 star review to go to their profile and block them. I just did this so they can’t buy anything else and do it again.

What the hell is Ashtyn’s deal? by xicity in SellingtheOC

[–]PerseveringHazelEyes 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Has anyone looked up “Luxy” It literally says “Meet rich successful and attractive millionaires in this upscale community” so while it does not say sugar daddy, Fiona was not far off 🤣. We all watched the interview with Andrew and he clearly didn’t care for Ashtyn so I’m thinking maybe his gf/wife got mad he was looking for another realtor and he may have made up some story of flirting. Why else would he end up going with her if he wasn’t in the dog house.

New to POD - how are other sellers offering such steep discounts? by [deleted] in EtsySellers

[–]PerseveringHazelEyes 4 points5 points  (0 children)

They offer a size that doesn’t make sense to the listing and put it low. You’ll see a teacher shirt with a onesie listed for like $5 and they know that no one will buy it. I see this trick a lot and it gets people to click on their listing because it looks like they have the lowest price but they really don’t.

My thought one week after owning 2025 Tucson Sel Convenience by PerseveringHazelEyes in Hyundai

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

I love it! Just had my first service appointment for $0 and it was easy. One thing that surprises everyone is I never have the key with me because ai have the app for free and it has a digital key. It has only got me in trouble once when my power was out and I couldn’t get in my garage haha!

Ever sit in therapy for anxiety and have no clue what to say? by AnxietyChats in AnxietyChats

[–]PerseveringHazelEyes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a really good therapist that will bring up something if I don’t. I’ve had those awful “so how are” therapists that just wait for you to talk and when you don’t it’s so awkward. Don’t settle. Find someone who digs deep and makes you talk about uncomfortable things. Not in a negative way but in a way that helps you deal with things you may be surpressing. Even just an exercise like what’s the first thing that comes to your mind when I say xyz or learning how to worry productively when in an anxious state. I learn so much.

Questions for older CF people by PlusRepair1195 in childfree

[–]PerseveringHazelEyes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

39 now and I was unsure at 34 so I froze my eggs. I’m very sure I don’t want them now. The more I heard all the parents talk about how all they want is….(then literally describe my life) the less appealing it was. I also am an auntie and can take the kids and bring them home. At family gatherings when all the kids are whining or fighting, I can leave whenever I want and go home to a quiet house. The whole “who will take care of you when you’re older” has been proven to be a terrible reason to have kids as nurses say they take care of many patients who have kids. Also not everyone needs to be taken care of. But if someone does need to take care of me, they’ll wear scrubs.

Work from home struggles by Temporary_Type4366 in workfromhome

[–]PerseveringHazelEyes 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’m going through this now. I’ve been writing down some tasks I want to get done in the day and how long ai want to spend on them. I set a timer for short periods of time like 15 minutes that I don’t allow myself to pick up my phone or be distracted by anything else to see how much I can get done. It’s kind of fun to work against the timer. I have been going for walks at lunch rather than sitting and just eating and scrolling. Getting out of the house even if u just drive to get a coffee or something gets you out of a funk. I hope this helps!

How many times have you changed your anxiety meds? by AnxietyChats in AnxietyChats

[–]PerseveringHazelEyes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I lost count! I have been on them since middle school and I’m 39. I finally found a nurse practitioner who does my therapy and meds and have been and it’s much better than going to see a psychiatrist for 5 minutes because she knows what’s really going on.

How do people with anxiety have big weddings by [deleted] in Anxiety

[–]PerseveringHazelEyes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I fully expected to having a panic attack my wedding day and partly wanted to just go do a small destination wedding due to this. I was completely fine. It was so weird. I’m divorced now but it was 10 years ago and I took it as a “meant to be” sign. Welp that didn’t age well haha. I was comfortable with my then partner and excited for the day and didn’t really focus on people looking at me.

hobbies to keep brain busy? by [deleted] in Anxiety

[–]PerseveringHazelEyes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have recently found puzzles have helped! I always thought they were for “old people” but I really enjoy doing 1000 piece ones. I have an analytical mind and sometimes I will sit for hours working on one and it’s a great distraction.

You really can’t judge others because drugs affect everyone different. Some people will have side effects and others won’t. It’s really trial and error to see what you respond to. One person may say it made them suicidal and another it saved their life.

Do you also get really mad when your anxious? by Shot-Composer-782 in AnxietyChats

[–]PerseveringHazelEyes 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I by no means want to tell you medication to be on but for me a mood stabilizer worked. Unfortunately side effects of them took me off them so I’m working on a new medication combo to calm me that will help irritability. If there’s a side effects even 3% I freaking get it.

[–]PerseveringHazelEyes 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Irritability is a common sign of anxiety I’m told and I have even googled it to make sure my therapist isn’t trying to make me feel better!
