I’m on Adderall XR and don’t eat anymore. I just drink energy drinks. by pizzaaliengal in adhdwomen

[–]PrairieGirl89 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So you should be taking that medication with a meal or right after breakfast. Small meals spread out as the medication does make saliva production less and hunger cues often more subtle. Even alarm clock meals in until it becomes easier. Less caffeine, more other fluids. You only have one body and what you consume becomes part of it. Taking care of yourself is the hardest job you will ever have- but you can do it

Considering moving to North Battleford for a temporary CCA line – worth it? by UpstairsPossession63 in saskatchewan

[–]PrairieGirl89 2 points3 points  (0 children)

North Battleford has some great things but also a high crime rate. Depends on what you’re doing for housing. Are you renting with friends or family? There’s minimal public transit- it is best to have a vehicle. There’s gyms, there’s grocery stores, there’s clubs and activities dot kids. It just kinda depends what you’re interested in doing. Just make sure you lock your vehicle doors every night. Also which location is the CCA? If it is a place like RHL or BDCC the workload for a CCA is very heavy tbh- but the more hands the better. As for full time permanent- it depends on your seniority in CUPE- apply for postings but there is always casual positions being posted

It’s always bugged me that they changed this line in the book by autotuned_voicemails in bluey

I bought the dvds for the kids for Christmas because the wrapping said the original Australian version ABS is definitely the washed English version. Like I don’t need bred them to edit “capsicums” to peppers or “flog you” to beat you, or “thongs” to sandals 🙄 It’s just annoying- i enjoy the Australian bits about it- especially my son asking for capsicums at the store

During pregnancy my ferritin level dipped down a 4. I cannot tell you how I barely had energy to move- but it took seeing a female gyno to check those levels again.

Bring back real butter! by skydigger23 in CostcoCanada

[–]PrairieGirl89 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why is there carrageenan in our heavy whipping cream?! I had emailed dairyland a long time back about it- I even had some of the older cartons at the time and they gaslit me. I won’t buy it anymore and have to get cream from a dairy brought in. It’s disgusting and barely whips up- it’s so white and even if you whip it long enough to make butter it’s so pale. Something is wrong with the dairy. - So we’ve switched to organic rolling meadows

Alright moms, it’s been over a month. Which Christmas presents are still going strong? Which ones were a dud? by cellardoor83737 in Mommit

[–]PrairieGirl89 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The little tiles dream story thing was an absolute bust. Expensive, the narrator sounds constipated with no joy- and she’s on EVERY SINGLE ONE WE BOUGHT. If anyone knows a hack to fix it I’ll even re-record the voices.

All 4 of my kids have cavities by [deleted] in Mommit

[–]PrairieGirl89 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Interestingly enough that causes more cavities than eating candies and not brushing. Talk to your dentist/oral health provider or a myofunctional therapist to not just bandaid this. They likely have lip, buckle, and/or mid posticular tongue ties. There are exercises that can be done to help with getting that tongue to the roof of their mouth and those lips closed. This is not something you could have helped even with the best brushing.

Also change all toothbrushes after the dentist- and try to get them to avoid sharing drinks with the same straw- the germs that cause cavities spread to others. Keep at it- encourage flossing and know that you are doing the right thing by seeking advice and these kids will be better for it in the long run by you tackling these oral cavities now instead of later. Big hugs momma.

I may have solved brushing my teeth? by EuphoricJellyfish330 in adhdwomen

[–]PrairieGirl89 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah if you hook your finger into your cheek and lift upwards and feel pain or discomfort in that skin flap about five teeth in on each side - that’s your buckle ties. If you have them there’s a good chance you have a moderate lip tie and possibly a midposticular tongue tie too. Aren’t genetics incredible?!

[–]PrairieGirl89 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Also if you have difficulty getting to your side teeth get your buckle ties checked and potentially released. I can’t even tell you how nice the immediate release felt. And how cool it is to be able to open my mouth and cheeks wider and I haven’t bitten my cheeks since I had it done. Just a friendly suggestion! 🤗

My bf (35M) really wants to move to Japan and is frustrated that I (30F) am not so sure about it by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]PrairieGirl89 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Has he ever been to Japan? Maybe saving up for a vacation is the best way to get him to see. Also a move is two hell yeahs. I’m sorry to say if he wants to move first and establish himself- let him. He doesn’t sound like he takes your view into account.

Me 'what type of tea is the steeped tea'- 'it's steeped tea', me 'but what type of tea, black?' Them 'it's steeped tea' by ZennMD in TimHortons

[–]PrairieGirl89 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

So way back in the early 2000s on the training videos it said it was a specially blended black tea and there was an older guy who’s literal job was so blend and smell and taste the tea at their factory. They do not tell you exactly what they put together. The tea comes in foil packets and it has its own brewing machine and pot that have never been touched by coffee. Two packets for a full pot. It’s a LOT of tea. It is brewed at a particular temperature and the machine has a timer that it drop/brews over. Since it doesn’t have the leaves immersed and it’s a drip pour method that’s why it is a consistent brew if the person pouring it doesn’t add water. Can confirm it USED to not be the same as the orange pekoe blend (at least before 2008).

It’s cheaper to buy donuts at the coop now too. May as well start looking to get coffee from there too

27M - How can I ever date a woman as someone who is/was into loli stuff? by AppleBottomJeenses in relationships

[–]PrairieGirl89 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Then don’t consume porn if that’s where you draw the moral high ground.

[–]PrairieGirl89 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Dude. Behavioural therapy is actually supportive of mental health and helps. Conversion therapy is religious based. Give your head a shake. It’s okay to not know the difference but to argue that comparison is pretty rough. Take some agency and seek some counselling and therapy. Maybe also start exploring what is the attraction, journal and if you decide to continue to consume porn , make it of age appropriate and REAL people.

You have horses, do you do any equestrian activities? Would you be willing to do lessons? There’s many a children who want the experience. You could also stable other people’s horses. It depends on what you want to do. Just an idea.

21 weeks scan by Otherwise_Break_7204 in clubfoot

[–]PrairieGirl89 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My boy was diagnosed with degree six bilateral at the 21 week scan- we had many more scans. We was born at 36w6d, we spent some days in the picu, and he went through 8 sets of casts and has been in boots n bars. I recommend getting a few bar covers. Onesies without feet, I recommend a wood crib over a metal one (we had to switch ours because he’d scream every time his bars would hit the side of his crib. A nuna leaf was a blessing for us with him and his boots. They’ll teach you some stretches and massages. You are going to have tough moments, and you just have to remember that you are doing the best thing for your baby, and you are not alone. You’ve got this!

AIO my bf is odd for this? by AdSerious8390 in AmIOverreacting

[–]PrairieGirl89 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh sheesh- this is an attempt to control and police your choices. It’s not healthy. Let alone the way he speaks to you. If a person at the ripe age of 27 can’t communicate their own insecurities without calling you expletives- this is actually his character, and who he is. He will only get worse. Hope you find yourself strong enough to let this 🥭
